Talked to Corey Conners 1:1 after his opening-round 68!

First time Conners has broken 70 in the first round of Masters and was the clubhouse leader when he finished.

Watching @jordanbpeterson and other Canadian professionals being targeted by their professional associations for speaking their minds made it clear to me that Alberta has to act.

That’s why we are changing the law to ensure no one in Alberta will ever be punished by their professional body for standing up and sharing their views. In this province, we protect the voices that challenge, question, and inspire.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

SpaceX plans to launch about five uncrewed Starships to Mars in two years.

If those all land safely, then crewed missions are possible in four years. If we encounter challenges, then the crewed missions will be postponed another two years.

It is only possible to travel from Earth to Mars every two years, when the planets are aligned. This increases the difficulty of the task, but also serves to immunize Mars from many catastrophic events on Earth.

No matter what happens with landing success, SpaceX will increase the number of spaceships traveling to Mars exponentially with every transit opportunity. We want to enable anyone who wants to be a space traveler to go to Mars! That means you or your family or friends – anyone who dreams of great adventure.

Eventually, there will be thousands of Starships going to Mars and it will a glorious sight to see! Can you imagine? Wow.

The fundamental existential question is whether humanity becomes sustainably multiplanetary before something happens on Earth to prevent that, for example nuclear war, a supervirus or population collapse that weakens civilization to the point where it loses the ability to send supply ships to Mars.

One of my biggest concerns right now is that the Starship program is being smothered by a mountain of government bureaucracy that grows every year. This stifling red tape is affecting all large projects in America, which is why, for example, California has spent ~$7 billion dollars and several years on high-speed rail, but only has a 1600 ft section of concrete to show for it!

While I have many concerns about a potential Kamala regime, my absolute showstopper is that the bureaucracy currently choking America to death is guaranteed to grow under a Democratic Party administration. This would destroy the Mars program and doom humanity.

It cannot happen. Your help would be much appreciated. This is a fork, maybe the fork, in the road of human destiny.

#BREAKING: Jagmeet Singh to make an announcement at 1pm, with some speculating that he could END HIS COALITION AGREEMENT with Justin Trudeau.

[stephen brooks @sjlbrooks]

Agree!

[Stephen Taylor @stephen_taylor]

Do you agree? Is Justin Trudeau Canada's worst Prime Minister of all time?

[stephen brooks @sjlbrooks]

@kinsellawarren Can’t wait to hear @kinsellawarren say the words, ‘Prime Minister Poilievre’.

@iamnot_elon X

[Marcel van Hattem @marcelvanhattem]

In Brazil, we do not have X anymore since midnight.

I am tweeting this with VPN.

This tweet may cost me almost 10,000 USD according to the decision of tyrant @alexandre de Moraes, friends with @LulaOficial : every Brazilian that post on X from now on will be fined R$ 50,000 according to his illegal "ruling".

My dignity is worth much more than that. Actually, it is priceless. I will keep tweeting regardless of State persecution or threats because I believe in freedom of expression, democracy and real Justice.

Brazilians will take to the streets. On the 7th of September we will make our voices heard very clearly. We will demand Moraes to be impeached by the Senate and to be sent to jail after a fair trial - which Moraes cruelly and unconstitutionally gives not to the people that he persecutes.

Thank you @elonmusk for standing with us. Your attitudes against censorship and authoritarianism are giving us hope and strengthening our cause for freedom in Brazil!

BREAKING: The RFK Jr. campaign just released one of the most BEAUTIFUL Trump ads EVER

It starts with a question to the voters asking, "Are you or your loved ones suffering from illnesses such as TDS, also known as Trump Derangement Syndrome?"

IT'S HILARIOUS AND PERFECT! 😂😂

[stephen brooks @sjlbrooks]

@DrJackKruse @nayibbukele An impressive leader, no doubt, to whom freedom-loving people around the world are watching and admiring. But ‘authoritarian’ and ‘strongman’, … would @nayibbukele agree with such a characterizations??

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Sounds like a First Amendment violation

[Nayib Bukele @nayibbukele]

El Salvador is not only the safest country in the Western Hemisphere, but we also guarantee that you won’t be arrested, censored, or have your assets seized for exercising your right to free speech.

And there’s no property tax 🤷🏻‍♂️
