I started a software company in 2015 with a co-founder and an angel investor.

I had zero experience running a business, zero sales experience, zero experience running and building software. Despite all of that, we were generating 2M in ARR when I sold the company at more than 7x

@woebetidesus @JonesOnTheNBA No he wasn't. He was exactly what the Magic needed and earned his money

[Jonathan Rivera @jrivera84]

@JonesOnTheNBA Yup. Each one of those games were heartbreakers. Game 4 broke their will. Couldn't recover after those D Fish 3's.

@business Money is just moving laterally. Anthropic gets invested by Google. Anthropic uses Google's servers and pays them. Google pays SpaceX. Everyone is paying with the other's money lol. The pop will be epic.

New reports reveal GOP Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp sold 3 lakefront properties shortly after he became governor.

The properties had been listed for over a decade, and the people who bought the properties were later given valuable government contracts and appointed to high-ranking positions.

Fired "60 Minutes" journalist Scott Pelley says CBS News boss Bari Weiss is lying when she says there was an effort to "find a way back" for him.

"At no point did anyone in the meeting suggest there could be steps taken by either side that would lead to a resolution. Weiss and Tom Cibrowski were openly hostile from the start. 'Firing' was raised by Cibrowski in the first 15 seconds. No CBS executive, at any time, suggested 'a way back.' To say so now is disingenuous. And they know it. In fact, Weiss, Cibrowski and Nick Bilton refused to answer my questions. I asked Weiss a number of questions about why she fired the entire senior staff of '60 Minutes' a few days before and without cause. 'I'm not answering that question,' she said... These executives cannot gain the trust of the staff with lies. This is antithetical to everything we stand for and reveals contempt for what journalists do."

Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:

“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.

Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.

Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”

Breaking NYT:

In a move that disproportionately targets women and minority officers, Pete Hegseth recently blocked the promotions of at least seven Navy officers who had been selected by a board of senior Navy admirals.

The decision appears driven by his anti-diversity stance rather than based on merit. https://t.co/9eesu4F4Jo

@magicfaninTN @BrandonKravitz @thebrettjames1 These speculations are crazy. Giannis is a horrible fit unless you trade P5 and that’s not happening.

@VivekGRamaswamy @ZohranKMamdani You like supporting losers and it shows.

[Jonathan Rivera @jrivera84]

@wolfejosh @JeffBezos And the bottom relies 100% off of the same class that has kept wages low, healthcare unaffordable, and bought politicians...no thank you. Everyone needs to contribute.

@DobermanStrong @JoJoFromJerz He means politics ahead of profits. No way he's doing this for funsies

@ebotchway @mcuban @atrupar It’s about transparency & sticking 2 what you actually believe. There’s a reason why Billionaires like him are not trusted by most Voters. They are really with you until they can make a buck. Is he willing to stand on the stage w/ criticism he gave or act like it’s all good now?

[Jonathan Rivera @jrivera84]

@mcuban @atrupar And well…

[Jonathan Rivera @jrivera84]

@mcuban @atrupar The question is this Mark. You campaigned against him and his https://t.co/zL0U9BKFzj there financial gain in this for you. If there is, fine… as long as you stand on the rest of his divisive, racist, and terrible economic policies that you campaigned against.

[Jonathan Rivera @jrivera84]

@Acyn @AOC Fried him.

@TwinDadDoug @GenZMultifamily @seandsweeney The fact that there are landlords that think so selfishly is what’s partly wrong with the rental housing market. The statement “we wouldn’t have to raise rents for a couple of years” is wild. What happens when that runway runs out? Where are they making cuts?
