@adribbleofink@PLL08 When I was 16 I picked up @RealKKBundy & @OfficialHTM from the airport on a hot summer day in my minivan and the AC broke while driving them to their wrestling gig. They were so mad they wouldn’t even give me an autograph after.
Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.
400 of them are now worth over $100 million.
These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.
Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.
Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."
The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.
Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.
If that addict on your street were your own son, what would you do? That is the defining question that guides my 5 step plan to fix the homelessness problem in LA. We *must* end this evil racket of corrupt politicians and NGOs who profit off the misery of these poor souls. They launder money and feed them more drugs, so they can keep their customers locked in this hell on our streets. We have a moral obligation from God to help them and make our city safe and clean for everyone. Karen Bass and Nithya Raman have forsaken this city. Time for real leadership. Time for real compassion.
JUST IN: Man accused of killing his daughter's rap*st wins the Republican primary for county sheriff in central Arkansas.
Aaron Spencer, who is awaiting his murder trial, received over 53% of the vote in Lonoke County.
Last year, Spencer announced on social media that he was running for sheriff because the legal system had "failed."
In 2024, Spencer allegedly woke up to find his 14-year-old daughter missing from her bed.
Spencer searched the neighborhood and found his daughter in a car with 67-year-old Michael Fosler, according to court documents.
He then chased the car down and drove it off the road before shooting and killing Fosler.
Fosler was facing over 40 child s*x crime charges involving Spencer's daughter when he was shot.
Spencer's wife says their daughter was "targeted, groomed and ultimately r*ped by the boyfriend of a family friend."
"I’m the father who acted to protect his daughter when the system failed," Spencer said at the time of his announcement.
@Brent_Cobb@boop115731 I think the part that makes me laugh the most aside from the fact this tweet will never die, is I was drunk when I wrote this and I mixed up sublime’s “what I got” with everlast’s “what it’s like”. When I come see you in concert i think it would be hilarious if you played all 3
Anyone outraged over the ICE shooting of Pretti needs to face a test.
Be given a gun, and put in a room with an armed criminal, with 20 video cameras capturing the encounter from every angle.
They can kill you at any time. You are only allowed to shoot the moment before

🚨 HELL YEAH! Footage of Border Patrol Chief Greg Bovino rallying his men in Los Angeles during the riots has surfaced
AGENT: “Whose city is it, Chief?!”
BOVINO: “This is OUR f***ing city!”
BOVINO: “Arrest as MANY people that touch you as you want to… EVERYBODY f***ing gets it if they touch you. Those are the general orders.”
“Less lethals: We’re looking at shipping TRACTOR TRAILER LOADS of that sh*t in here.”
Absolute LEGEND 🇺🇸🔥
I’ve listened to the newest Sublime single no less than 100 times over the summer and it’s wild to me every spin. Jakob Nowell sounds so much like his dad. It’s like I’m actually getting one of my favorite bands back. Stoked for this record.🔥
A leftist asshole rode through a Charlie Kirk vigil on scooter in front of the Idaho State Capitol yelling, "Fuck Charlie Kirk!"
He promptly got his ass beat. The people have had enough.
