Congats to the 22-year-old son of Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) for raising $30 million on his new company with a $300m valuation.
His prior work -- as a Senate intern and then in the Congress Influence department at Andreessen, Horowitz -- is a testament to our meritocracy!🇺🇸
In 2015, Barack Obama awarded Tom Homan the the Presidential Award for Service for Making America Safer at ICE...
10 years later Liberals want Tom Homan killed. It's the same Tom but a different Democrat Party!

Good FT article about the financial consequences of replacing the 2018 comp package now (would cost us at current share price 21x more, and who knows where the stock will be when this drama is finally over).
Also about Elon's unfavorable tax situation.
A Delaware judge just overruled a supermajority of shareholders who own Tesla and who voted twice to pay @elonmusk what he’s worth.
The court’s decision is wrong, and we’re going to appeal.
This ruling, if not overturned, means that judges and plaintiffs’ lawyers run Delaware companies rather than their rightful owners – the shareholders.
Based on her @TSLA ruling, DE Judge McCormick is an activist judge at its worst. No judge has the right to determine CEO compensation. Shareholders voted twice, overwhelmingly each time, to ratify @elonmusk’s 2018 performance-based pay package. She will lose this fight in Supreme Court. I stand by my original response supporting #Tesla and Elon:
A day in the life of flight hardware testing for Neutron.
We recently took our new rocket’s second stage through an initial Wet Dress Rehearsal, successfully running its flight avionics and pressurant and propellant management systems to emulate flight operations.
BREAKING: The Democratic Vice Presidential candidate, Tim Walz, called Elon Musk a “gay guy.”
This is beyond pathetic. Elon Musk is a national asset and deserves respect, regardless of the party or candidate he supports. Shame on the Democrats.
@thomashawk@GavinNewsom Cali, PG&E and Newsom are puhhhthetic. The amount we pay for electricity is insane.
Meanwhile China bringing their cost of energy to practically zero.
@Jaybefaunt@DrJillStein Go to 3rd world countries, no one in America is poor. Incredible resources to anyone that just gives the smallest effort.
No one in America is working 70 hours a week to barely afford eating and living in an aluminum siding shack with no water and power.
The Wall Street Journal published yet another incredibly misleading story about @Starlink based upon completely unsubstantiated claims from unnamed sources.
As has been repeatedly confirmed by the Department of Defense, SpaceX has worked (and continues to work) in close partnership with the U.S. Government regarding Ukraine and denial of service to bad actors. The Wall Street Journal repeats long-ago debunked claims that Starlink ever turned off service for Ukrainian soldiers. Starlink’s contributions to the Ukrainian defense and the Ukrainian people are indisputable. Starlink has kept Ukrainians online and connected to the world throughout the conflict and Starlink has defended itself against major efforts to disrupt that connection, at great cost to the company.
Regarding Taiwan, as even the Taiwan government has confirmed, Starlink is not available there because Taiwan has not given us a license to operate, and regulators declined to remove a requirement that a foreign entity own 51% of Starlink to operate there. SpaceX has not accepted such a condition for any market in which it operates. This has nothing to do with Russia or China.
