🚨 Do you understand what Oracle just did..
they fired 30,000 people.. via 6 AM email.. while reporting a 95% increase in net income last quarter..
Oracle isn't a struggling company .. Oracle made MORE money than ever.. and still fired 30,000 people because they're spending $156 billion on AI data centres instead..
and Larry Ellison.. the guy who just fired 30,000 families.. is worth $200 billion.. the 3rd richest person on earth.. he owns an entire Hawaiian island.. Lanai.. 98% of it.. bought it for $300 million like it was a vacation home..
this is the same playbook every single time..
IBM fired 7,800 and replaced them with AI in 2023.. Amazon cut 27,000 the same year while reporting record revenue.. Atlassian cut thousands while profits climbed.. Google laid off 12,000 while sitting on $100 billion in cash..
they told you to learn to code.. you learned to code.. they told you to upskill.. you upskilled.. and then they replaced you with the thing you helped build and sent the termination letter before you woke up..
the company made record profits and decided the reward for that was firing the people who made it happen.

Nothing like a good layoff story to get the investor juices flowing. Needless to say, that flow is about to be a flood: marketwatch.com/story/oracles-…

@HouseofElon @Beau8Beau @JessicaTarlov The irony of this considering what Trump just said about stupid people 🤣🤣🤣

Everyone sitting at Mar-a-Lago realizing he’s talking about them.

Trump: I hang out with losers because it makes be feel better. I hate guys that are very, very successful and you have to listen to their success stories. I like people that like to listen to my success.

@BilballBags @MRSteveuhuru @MLFootball @vountee @captainseahawk @SeahawkGoon @RaidersBeat @MitchellRenz365 @RaiderHours @RaiderHoncho @KennyKing_Jr Carr had skills, sure, but how are you gonna praise him consider the complete shitshow the Raiders were during his entire tenure? He's proven time and time again to be a loser. Completely agree, however, that the Raider rot happens at the top. Awful.

@MRSteveuhuru @MLFootball @vountee @captainseahawk @SeahawkGoon @RaidersBeat @MitchellRenz365 @RaiderHours @RaiderHoncho @KennyKing_Jr You know nothing about football if you think Carr was a shitty QB.

@imrightthough Nice guy, throws a nice ball… not a winner. Proved that over and over again. Of course, compared to the rest of the jokers we’ve had over the past 25 years, he’s the second coming of QB Jesus.

@ThatmanBa @LVGully Was hopeful about bringing Pete in, but settling for a 54 yard field goal? Nah, same old shit franchise.
English

@LVGully Look we need to be really honest. The Raiders are a very bad team. Pete has done a bad job. Miller is out for the season now. Raiders aren’t winning in Indy. Season is pretty much over. It’s just wash, rinse, and repeat w this team every year. Also, what was that 3rd down call?

#Raiders defense has done it all day...but won't matter if they can't close the door here.

@MySportsUpdate @PatMcAfeeShow Ugh… Guess I’ll go to church now… or something

Scott Hanson confirms NFL RedZone will have commercials in some capacity this season — which is something he has no control over.
The intro will be: “7 hours of RedZone Football start now.”

Caught @TonyHinchcliffe and @joerogan at the Mothership last night. What I could see through the 10-gallon hat blocking the view anyway. Show was great, but the crowd? The Facebook comments section brought to life. “Lock up Fauci!” “Build the wall.” Consider this a PSA.

@GoldenNoel @RussOnPolitics @brianstelter How is this bias when it’s 100% fact? Are journalists not supposed to report such clear truths?
English

@RussOnPolitics @brianstelter A journalist can’t be obviously biased like this and expected to report in an unbiased manner. He’s a clown. He’s an activist, not a journalist. He’d be more at home serving Molotov cocktails, than reporting on the terrorism from such cocktails.

@mypoliticalx @don_minnick @allenanalysis lol he actually went with the “transgender” mice thing. Srsly… it’s not that hard, folks.
English

@don_minnick @allenanalysis Oh yeah??? So all the hundreds of millions they found for things like researching transgender mice for 8 million isn't liberal BS? Dei in other countries for millions. There is hundreds in f millions of dollars being wasted on crap. That's why this has to happen

BREAKING: Condoleezza Rice just went on Fox & Friends and dismantled Trump’s war on universities and scientific research.
When even Bush’s Secretary of State is side-eyeing your assault on knowledge and education, you’ve officially crossed into uncharted stupidity.
This isn’t left vs. right anymore; it’s reality vs. whatever paranoid fantasy TrumpWorld is cooking up next.
