Please vote Tuesday like President Obama is on the ballot.
Obama 🔥: "The president wasn't even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison! That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about the Cheesecake Factory comments. He took great umbrage. The mobilized a whole of government response to that joke! They told the Treasury Secretary to hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory. This really happened."

No one person should have the power he has over another country, or countries. I have never had a problem, watching people honestly accumulating wealth, but accumulating power is another thing.
Elon Musk’s views on Ukraine have shifted from generous support to outright hostility, @shustry and @isaacstanbecker report. They explore how the world’s richest man could decide the country’s fate: theatlantic.com/national-sec…

Louisiana elected officials deny wrongdoing as details surface about their involvement with the $50B AI data center project and personal financial interests in it. wwltv.com/article/news/inves…

I’m with the Farmer too.
Proud to join Congressman Troy Carter, Sr. and Pete Buttigieg to get out the vote in New Orleans for US Senate Candidate Jamie Davis. “I’m with the Farmer!”

Would you believe over 7 million people have voted early in the Louisiana elections?

Again, please don’t believe it just because it’s typed. There are fewer than 3 million registered voters in the state of Louisiana, and it’s rare that over 50% of registered voters vote.

That one is an accurate statement.

Honestly, we don’t need anything Elon Musk is selling, or any of the politicians he’s buying.

Damn - that's an insane statistic.
Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

If each time you tweeted, your comments were as brutal as the speaker’s, would you tweet anymore?
It has been my highest honor to serve these past three years as the 56th Speaker. Our extraordinary success has been achieved through a total TEAM effort, and I’m grateful for the hard work and faithful support of so many trusted friends. We look forward to delivering even more in the days ahead.🇺🇸

If the Democrats change leadership before the election and promise to have a balanced budget and bring down the national debt, they will crush it.

If you have United States Republican Senators up for election this year, do you think they deserve an opportunity to go back? Who would that be?

Can you name five Republicans in the House of Representatives who deserve another opportunity?

WOW! Actually, @Grok not why I was laughing. But you don’t know me very well. I was laughing because if each person who bought a Tesla had invested that money instead in the stock at IPO, then Tesla wouldn’t have sold that any Teslas, and stock price would likely be zero.
Replying to @BasinStRecords
Tesla IPO at $17. A typical ~$50k car outlay would have bought ~2,941 shares. After the 5x and 3x splits that becomes ~44,118 shares. At today’s ~$394 price that is roughly $17.4 million. You’re laughing because the stock multiplied ~350x while the car depreciated.

So @Grok, if everyone who bought a Tesla had bought Tesla stock at the IPO instead with the money they spent on their Tesla, how much money would they have today? And why am I laughing out loud?
Replying to @LangmanVince
Tesla IPO'd at $17/share on June 29, 2010. $10k bought ~588 shares. After the 5-for-1 (2020) and 3-for-1 (2022) splits, you hold ~8,824 shares. At today's ~$379 price, that investment is worth roughly $3.34 million.

Do you recommend the iPhone?
Thinking about switching from my Treo to an iPhone, but don’t want to give up the raised buttons.
