.@BernieSanders , it is a time to celebrate. @elonmusk has created enormous value for society by building @SpaceX, driving down the cost of rocket launches and creating a global satellite communication network that has brought high speed, low-cost internet and communication access to hundreds of millions and eventually billions of people along with critical advantages for our military and our nation’s defense.
SpaceX and its technologies will cause an acceleration in the growth of wages and wealth creation globally, including in some of the poorest communities in the U.S. and around the world.
Access to low-cost, high speed communications everywhere will allow children around the world to be educated, families to build businesses, and life-saving medical knowledge and care to be available everywhere.
SpaceX will materially bring down the cost of compute, advancing AI and humanity.
Meanwhile, 4,000 SpaceX employees yesterday became millionaires, including hourly wage employees who you claim you are trying to help.
The Elon Musks of the world drive growth, global GDP, and provide access to goods and services at lower cost that would otherwise not exist.
Elon’s nominal trillionaire status is due to his ownership of SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, the Boring Company and his other initiatives that have brought new technologies that improve our everyday lives.
Elon is not sitting on a trillion dollar pile of cash, jewelry and gold. He is using his controlling stakes in his companies to advance mankind. Elon’s companies don’t pay dividends. They reinvest all of their capital to accelerate innovation and value creation.
Elon is working 24/7 for all of us. He deserves respect and appreciation, not smears.
Bernie, your socialism would never allow a SpaceX to be built. Socialism has only proven to impoverish mankind and lead to death and destruction.
We need to create the conditions for more SpaceXs to be built, not attack the great entrepreneurs who are helping to advance our country.
@SenWarren You could give “the typical American” 11 MILLION years and they still would not create PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, OpenAI, xAI, Neuralink, Boring Company, Ad Astra, all while single-handedly saving free speech for all mankind.
So, I went and read this bill Juliana keeps talking about.
It’s AB 1209.
It’s authored by gubernatorial candidate @FrancescaHongWI and it’s absolutely bonkers.
Please get comfortable and stick around because there is a whole lot of craziness to unpack.
First, the bill raises taxes on filers in Wisconsin’s top income tax bracket by 15.69% these are people making over $323K.
So now we know how they’re defining “super rich” and “billionaire.” It’s people making $323K.
This alone would make WI the 9th highest income tax state but the bill doesn’t stop there.
AB 1209 creates a new bracket starting at $750K and sets the tax rate at 17.70%.
17.70!
Under Hong’s plan, WI will be #1 in America for income taxes.
So who will be paying this tax?
Billionaires?
Not really.
Wisconsin hardly has any.
The majority of payers will be mom and pop small businesses.
This is because the overwhelming majority of small businesses file not as corporations but as individuals, pass-throughs, S-corps, etc… and pay the individual tax rate.
Close to 80% of small businesses file this way and a substantial majority of people who will be hit by this 17.7% tax will be small businesses.
So this isn’t a “billionaires” tax at all.
This is a successful small business tax.
And this is all before we get into the strange way the bill plans to increase state school aids.
Under the bill, for purposes of calculating equalization aids and revenue limits, a middle class English speaking child will only count as 71% of a child as compared to a limited-English, low income pupil.
I thought all children were equal but I guess under Hong’s bill some are more equal than others.
I’d love to see the Legislative Fiscal Bureau run this district by district so we can see who wins and who loses under Hong’s weird plan of counting some children as lesser than other children.
Finally, I don’t see anything in the bill limiting property taxes. Presumably they would just keep going up despite increased state aids.
So, how would this net out?
If this bill passed, we could immediately expect:
- Most of WI’s wealthiest would leave.
- Thousands of small businesses would close their doors.
- Large corporations will transfer their executives elsewhere and some will abandon Wi. It will no longer be possible to recruit talent to WI. (This is happening with Starbucks and Amazon right now in Washington over a 9.9% tax. Guess what a 17.7% tax will do.)
- The Packers and Brewers will not be able to recruit talent. (I spent last week with some NFL players and they assured me that this is a big deal).
- Tax revenues will plummet. WI will face a budget deficit and effectively go into recession.
- Despite the new state aid increases, local governments appear to be able to raise property taxes more (and they’ll need to after commercial values plummet due to all the office buildings being abandoned).
If this isn’t bad enough, the Hongs and Julianas of Wisconsin have other bills including a local option super tax, which is a great way to chase entrepreneurs out of your city.
But the point is that this is unserious policy. To call it sophomoric is an insult to sophomores.
This is economic suicide that can only come from the fever dreams of fervent communists.
After reading it, I’m more motivated than ever to elect @TomTiffanyWI.

Joe Rogan shocked by UK Arab inbreeding statistics, “Strap yourself in for this”
- 70% of all Pakistanis are inbred
- Half of everyone living in the Arab world are inbred
- All inbreds have a 400% increased chance of having an IQ considered mental retardation
- BBC investigation in Britain revealed that at least 55% of the Pakistani community in Britain was married to a first cousin
- Turkey has between 25-30% more stillbirths among immigrants
- BBC's research also discovered that while British Pakistanis account for just 3.4% of all births in Britain, they accounted for 30% of all British children with recessive disorders and a higher rate of infant mortality
- Medical evidence shows that one of the negative consequences of inbreeding is a 100% increase in the risk of stillbirths
- Findings on intelligence research shows that if one parents are cousins — intelligence goes down 10 to 16 IQ points, the risk of having an IQ lower than 70 increases 400% amongst children from first cousin marriages (considered mental retardation)

The left says both sides need to tone down the rhetoric.
Their rhetoric:
Facist
Nazi
Racist
Domestic Terrorists
Our Rhetoric:
Love God
Love Country
Love each other
We need more of our rhetoric.
🚨 BREAKING - STEPHEN MILLER JUST WENT OFF: "WE are the ones who build, who create, who lift up humanity. You thought you could KILL Charlie Kirk? YOU HAVE MADE HIM IMMORTAL!"
"They cannot IMAGINE what they have AWAKENED! They cannot conceive of the army they have arisen in all of us!"
"And now millions will carry on his legacy! And we will devote the rest of our lives to FINISHING the causes for which Charlie gave his last measure of devotion."
"We stand for what is GOOD, virtuous and NOBLE. And to those trying to incite violence against us? ... What do YOU HAVE? You have NOTHING, you are nothing. You are wickedness, you are jealousy, you are hatred, YOU ARE NOTHING. You can build nothing, produce nothing, create nothing."
"You cannot defeat us, slow us, stop us - we will carry Charlie and Erika in our heart every single day and fight that much harder because of WHAT YOU DID TO US."
"You have no idea the dragon you awakened...how determined we will be."
I’ve sat through over 50 hours of Charlie Kirk’s videos as an ethnically Black American.
Not one racist word.
Not 1.
What Democrats do is cut snippets, strip context, and shove sound bites at the same gullible slob audience too lazy to fact-check.
That isn’t exposing racism .. it’s manufacturing lies to spark division.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk is bringing out some of the best in humanity and it’s also exposing some of the worst. The unification, love, support, and outcry on his behalf throughout the world is heartwarming. The number of people supporting Tyler Robinson’s appalling behavior has opened my eyes to a side of extremism with a moral superiority complex that has also shaken my belief in people in general. I hope they are held accountable for their disgusting rhetoric.
