This is f*cking insane
Everyone is talking about Jensen Huang's affair this week. Almost nobody is talking about what he said about paying $8 billion in taxes
Nvidia CEO, asked about California's billionaire tax:
"The fact that I can afford to pay $8 billion in taxes over five years is a privilege"
"I'm not afraid of paying taxes. I'm just afraid of being poor"
In 3 minutes, he explains why he's fine paying it while other billionaires spend millions fighting it:
0:31 - "I don't mind paying taxes. Why not?"
0:33 - The one thing he hates: tax dollars wasted
1:05 - "I am the ultimate American dream"
2:13 - The question: $8B over five years, still worth it?
2:37 - Afraid of being poor, not of taxes
2:51 - Why he pays his people as much as possible, not as little
When billionaires fight a tax, most people blame greed
Jensen is teaching the math underneath:
country → education → company → merit → success → taxes
Old way: pay as little as possible, to the state and to your people
New way: paying more is the proof you won
Better than any $2,000 finance course I've seen
Is he right or is that easy to say when you're a billionaire?

So when we say it’s systemic and systematic, THIS IS WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
Arkansas Bar official Nancie Givens charged with 64 felonies for altering Bar Exam scores, and deleting thousands of files to hide her crimes.
Prosecutors noted she added scores to White test takers and took points away from Black attorneys, causing at least one to fail. teapawt.org/Newsforce/status/21185…

Nancy Pelosi on Kicking Haley Stevens Out of the Caucus:
We have a few more weeks of being in Congress, so I don’t think we should start making judgments about anybody in the caucus at this point.
I was disappointed. I conveyed that to her. I want to be helpful to her in terms of how she deals with this, but I’m not supporting kicking her out.
Let’s focus on the very positive
