@SenWarren If you took 7 billion from Jeff Bezos, you would use it to fund 10 billion dollars of NGO's and Bureaucracies and deliver no insulin or lunch to anyone. That is the problem.

Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren·
Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

@chamath @chamath this is a chart of the money daycares received, not anything about what they donated. I can't find anything on what they actually donated.

Daycares in Minnesota outspent each of the Mag7 in political giving. Seems not fishy. Per Gemini: “Based on federal lobbying disclosures for the full year of 2024, zero individual tech companies reached the $35 million threshold. While 2024 was a record-breaking year for many tech giants, their individual federal spending remained well below $35 million. Even the largest spenders in the industry—Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet—typically hover in the $15M to $25M range.”

Daycares in Minnesota donated a combined $35 million to political campaigns in the last two years They didnt even try to hide the money trail. somaliscan.com

No idea this existed until today. People can make billions ratting out the fraud: What is “qui tam”? Via Gemini: “Qui tam is a legal provision that allows a private individual (known as a relator) to file a lawsuit on behalf of the government to recover funds lost to fraud. The term comes from the Latin phrase qui tam pro domino rege quam pro se ipso in hac parte sequitur, meaning "he who brings the action for the king as well as for himself."  In California, these actions are primarily governed by the California False Claims Act (CFCA), which is modeled after the federal version but tailored to protect state and local taxpayer money.  How Qui Tam Uncovers Fraud in California: The CFCA is designed to incentivize "insiders"—employees, contractors, or competitors—to expose schemes that the government might not otherwise detect.  1. Common Types of Fraud Reported • Healthcare/Medi-Cal Fraud: Overbilling, "upcoding" services, or billing for treatments never provided.  • Contractor Fraud: Using substandard materials on public construction projects or inflating labor hours.  • Grant & Education Fraud: Misusing state funds provided to schools, universities, or research institutions. • Procurement Fraud: Conspiring to rig bids for state contracts or providing defective products to state agencies.  • "Reverse" False Claims: Intentionally underpaying money owed to the state (e.g., hiding a debt or under-reporting natural resources extracted from state land).  2. The Process: Filing "Under Seal" To uncover fraud without alerting the bad actor, the process follows a specific "cloak and dagger" procedure:  • Confidential Filing: The whistleblower files the lawsuit in secret (under seal). Not even the defendant knows they are being sued yet.  • Government Investigation: The California Attorney General (or local prosecutor) has 60 days (often extended) to investigate the claims privately.  • Intervention Decision: The government decides to either intervene (take over the case) or decline (let the whistleblower pursue it on their own).  Whistleblower Rewards and Protections California offers some of the strongest incentives and protections in the nation to encourage people to come forward.

@DeanTTraining Ok.... but, so? If you asked 10,000,000 men to run under a 7:00 mile most would die too.... including lots of the ones who can bench 225. Picking any random physical test that specialists consider "easy" would have the same result.

@TomAlphaTrades @KobeissiLetter Ok.... but at 18, a kid might be earning next to nothing.... Take $6000-$7000 out per year while you are earning nothing, still pay no taxes on it and start a ROTH IRA with it.

The catch nobody's mentioning 📊 These accounts function like traditional IRA at 18 - withdrawals taxed as ORDINARY INCOME, not capital gains. Cato Institute: "Parents should NOT put their own money into a Trump account." Tax Foundation: 529s and Roth IRAs offer more flexibility and better tax treatment. Free $1,250? Take it. But max your 529 first. 🎯

JUST IN: "Trump Accounts" will feature TAX-FREE contributions with "hundreds of major companies" set to contribute. 25+ million US kids will now receive $1,000 from the Trump Administration, $250 from Michael Dell, and all tax-free contributions made to these accounts. This will provide TRILLIONS of dollars to kids if invested until age 20+.

@EconstratPB Sure, but what about over 65 yrs?($160,000) Or... and, hear me out... what if someone ever put more in besides the first $250. This is a spectacular idea - especially when the competing idea is social security.

This is the dumbest shit. $250 compounded at 10% for 20yrs is $1681. Assuming no one fucks anything up. 😂 Invest $6.25B into early childhood nutrition or early literacy will blow away that kind of return by a moonshot.
Michael Dell 🇺🇸@MichaelDell

$6.25 billion. 25 million children. $250 each. Susan and I believe the smartest investment we can make is in children. That’s why we’re so excited to contribute $6.25 billion from our charitable funds to help 25 million children start building a strong financial foundation through Invest America. 💪📈🇺🇸 onedell.com/investamerica/

Under President Trump, electricity prices are surging — up 11%! — leaving millions behind on their utility bills, with past-due balances at an all-time high. American families deserve better.

@WallStreetApes My deductible is also $9000, my co-pay is $100 and I get a bill in the mail, Why have Healthcare when I never go to the doctor's because I don't want another bill? Do I have to have health insurance?

US Health Insurance companies keep raising their deductibles “I'm paying every single month for my health insurance, but I have to pay $9,000 before I can actually use my health insurance? What do you mean — So why do I have health insurance?” And once you pay the $9,000 the insurance company is still going to deny your claim

@WallStreetApes Meaningless without knowing the premium you are paying. For instance, I would gladly take a $9000 deductible for a $200 premium. I pay $750 per month for $3000 deductible (single plan). Not Obamacare.... workplace.

Genuine question, what makes some HS sport coaches so hesitant/resistant to working with a highly qualified S&C/Performance Coach? I would think that being able to focus more on skill development, game planning, team calendar, etc. would be attractive to a coach.

I don't understand why people are opposed to tariffs. Other countries have massive tariffs on us. The average tariffs imposed on American companies are as follows: EU = 39% Vietnam = 90% Taiwan = 64% Bangladesh = 74% Japan = 46% India = 52% South Karea = 50% Thailand = 72% Switzerland = 61% Indonesia = 64% Malaysia = 47% Cambodia = 97% South Africa = 60% And so on…. Trump is proposing reciprocal tariffs, but in every instance it's less than what they impose on us.

Ben Shapiro calls Trump’s tariffs the largest tax increase on Americans in history that will decimate the economy, and one that stems from a complete misunderstanding of how international trade works and a misunderstanding of trade deficits. Shapiro notes that the only time in history that the US had a trade surplus was during the Great Depression.

Scientists are now finding out that not only can we compete with men but we can dominate them.” — Micky Matson, WA girls’ varsity tennis coach and BIOLOGY major This is from Thursday’s Tumwater School District board meeting where the board voted 3-1-1 to pass a resolution affirming a proposed amendment to @wiaawa policy to limit the ‘Girls Category’ in high school sports “to students whose biological sex is female.” @Scienceofsport @BrowngaGreg @Martina @JenniferSey @hecheateddotorg @boysvswomen @icons_women @WomenAreReals

@aldestrawk @SundgrenLori @bourne_beth2345 I have coached track in Iowa for 31 years. The best girls in the history of our state could not compete anywhere close to the top 50 or top 100 boys in any event, any year at the HS level. And, I'm talking about the best girls ever.... not the best this year.
