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.
Elon Musk is blowing the whistle on California election fraud.
After five days of statistically impossible ballot dumps, Nithya Raman has surged ahead of Spencer Pratt.
The DOJ must investigate, California's third-world election systems are enabling clear fraud.
US oil companies have made nearly $50 billion in additional profits since the Iran war started, benefiting more than any country in the world. I’m surprised how few people know this. The US is now the biggest oil and gas exporter in the world. (Graphic via @nytimes).
🚨 $ONDS IS THE MOST ACTIVELY TRADED STOCK IN THE U.S. STOCK MARKET TODAY BY A LANDSLIDE 🚨
$ONDS has traded more shares today than $NVDA.
$NVDA has a market cap of $5.7T and is now the second-largest asset in the WORLD after surpassing silver yesterday 🤯
$ONDS has a market cap of $5.5B and has traded more shares than a company over 1,000x its size.
Absolutely incredible.
HOLY CRAP! The CIA just RAIDED Tulsi Gabbard's office, and SEIZED documents related to the JFK assassination, MKUltra, and more, that Gabbard was set to declassify
BOXES of them
The CIA is in DIRECT VIOLATION of a Trump executive order
47 must REEL IN CIA!
🚨 Kamala just dropped $8.15 MILLION on a luxury Malibu mansion in celeb-packed Point Dume 🚨
Ocean views, spa bathroom, private putting green... the works. 🏡🌊⛳️
Meanwhile, she bankrupted the DNC, forced the party to bail out her debts, cashed in on a “I lost” book deal — and now this?
Public servant life sure pays better than it used to.
Tell me again how this is the party of the working class? 😂
Not a great look, Kamala.
What's your response to this......??👀

#Saints DB Lorenzo Styles Jr. on what he expects his role to look like:
"Special teams, whatever they need me to do. I can start on all four units Day 1."
"I play DB, so whatever spot they need me to do. I think STAR may be the original spot."
🚨 JUST IN: It's being exposed that the Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg-blocked Spirit airlines merger with JetBlue might now PUSH UP FARES by $100 DOLLARS
The socialists blocked:
- $1 BILLION per year in consumer savings
- 10,000 NEW direct jobs by this year
- 1,000+ daily flights to 145+ destinations
Leftists destroy everything they touch.
