Was that seriously one train of thought? Not pieced together?

He goes from his normal: She's not having success, I'm having success. Then it's all over the place.
Auto workers are voting for him because he has nothing to do with project 2025? Wow.
70% of our people are in poverty? Wow.
And tops it off with, can't buy a house because of child trafficking.

He went for the word soup today, instead of the salad, this was pureed much finer than normal.
It was pieced together. That said, the real thing was not much better.

I had previously been of the thought that giving airtime to Trump only helped him like it did in 2016 but I'm not so sure of that anymore.
 
How's that legal?
It’s completely legal.

The campaigns aren’t giving Trump cash; they’re paying for services rendered…..and if a luncheon for 100 at the local Sheraton is $150 a plate and it’s $750 a plate at Mar-a-Lago, Trump will talk about how luxurious and elite and special Mar-a-Lago is.
 


Seems anti-free market to amplify small accounts that cannot generate interest in their content on their own.
 
Gift Link: How Elon Musk Got Tangled Up in Blue

How Elon Musk Got Tangled Up in Blue​

Twitter Blue, a revamped subscription service that let users buy verified badges, was the first big test for the platform’s new owner. It didn’t go well.

Elon and the right attempting to use sXitter to influence politics and elections. Shockingly, their claims against the left and Jack Dorsey were projection as always.

Also, there's no better example of a large sXitter account having too much influence than Elon's own. I'm sure he'll get around to deprioritizing his account in the algorithm any day now...
 
Also an article in the NYT today about SF saying good riddance to Twitter.

I wish Elon would design a submarine for him and Trump to take a very very deep dive in! Not that anything bad would happen to him but maybe they'd get stranded like the Boeing astronauts at least until 2026-27?
 

Elon Musk sent an email to X staff overnight about their much-anticipated stock grants — but there’s a catch.
In an email to staff viewed by The Verge, the company is planning to award stock options based on the anticipated impact of employees. That means staff have to submit a one-page summary telling leadership their contributions to the company in order to get their stock.


These long-awaited stock grants add to the tensions between X leadership and staff after the promotions process was recently delayed without explanation, we previously reported. Given how the company formerly called Twitter has continued to struggle under Elon Musk’s ownership, employees have been bracing for more layoffs.
What’s more, a source at X told The Verge that the company still owes staff their annual equity refresher, which was supposed to be doled out in April. Musk previously assured employees that they could regularly cash out stock, similar to SpaceX staff, according to two employees. However, he has not yet followed through on this promise.
