Gavin Newsom just used his own PAC to buy $1.5 million worth of his own book. Even more comically, that accounts for 2/3 of the entire print sales.

@HarmeetKDhillon @data_republican @CivilRights You’re awesome and I always thought you should have headed up the GOP a few years ago. That was a mistake to not choose you over Romney’s niece.

@GovSherrillNJ So contracts are meaningless in NJ? Your predecessor, who was a Democrat, negotiated the deal. You can complain all you want, but who gives you the right to ignore a legal contract? Are you now a queen?

FIFA is charging fans up to $10,000 for a single ticket to the final.
They’re charging over $200 for “premium” parking at the American Dream Mall – while eliminating parking at MetLife Stadium.
They’re set to make $11 billion off of the World Cup overall.
But New Jerseyans should foot a $48 million bill for transportation costs?
Not happening.

To those of you with a Tesla (or really any EV) how long did it take before you first had to change your brakes?
And if you haven't needed to, what's the age and mileage of your vehicle?

This is an evil thing to say. Being forced to amputate my breasts in order to save my life when I wanted nothing more than to breastfeed my newborn son was traumatic. I am not over it. I am going to continue to talk about it for the sake of myself and for those who can relate.

Oh yes. Lebanon is a wonderful exemplar of peaceful coexistence if you exclude the civil war from 1975-1990 that claimed the lives of 150,000+ people, and forced my family to flee. Thank you @Pontifex for your suicidal empathy.

The Pope cites Lebanon as an example of peaceful “coexistence” between Christians and Muslims. Fun fact: Lebanon was literally created to be a homeland for persecuted Christians in the Middle East. And it was for a few decades. The moment Muslim invaders thought they had the numbers, they started a civil war that lasted 15 years because they didn’t want to live with the same Christians who made them part of the country. Thousands of Christians were massacred, Muslims became the majority, Hezbollah took over, and the country hasn’t known peace ever since. Lebanon is the first and ultimate example that coexistence between Christians and Muslims is quite literally impossible. It’s mind-blowing that anyone would use it as an example of coexistence, let alone the Pope.

@realMaalouf Lebanon is the poster child for why Christians should not be apathetic and docile regarding Islam.

It’s simply appalling that the Pope cites Lebanon, of all places, as an example of peaceful coexistence. This demonstrates a profound lack of historical understanding.

Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

The fact that he keeps using Lebanon as a positive example of Muslims and Christians living together, when the Christian population there has been persecuted and reduced to just 30% of the country, is an issue.
He seems to always grade Islam on a curve.

El @Pontifex_es pone a Líbano como ejemplo de convivencia, para que los cristianos no tengan miedo a la inmigración masiva musulmana. Es de no creer lo perdido que anda este señor. 🤦♀️ Esta es la triste historia de Líbano, un país que pasó de ser la Suiza de Oriente Medio a un estado fallido 👇🏻 En los últimos 60 años, la población cristiana en Líbano ha descendido de forma notable, pasando de aproximadamente el 50-52 % en la década de 1960 a entre el 30,5 % y el 35 % en la actualidad según estimaciones de Statistics Lebanon, padrones electorales y fuentes como el CIA World Factbook, principalmente por emigración masiva durante y tras la Guerra Civil, mayores tasas de natalidad musulmanas y crisis económicas. Hezbollah (grupo terrorista islámico que, de facto, tiene el control de importantes áreas y frente al que el ejército libanés se ha mostrado impotente) ejerce presión constante sobre los cristianos mediante intimidación y violencia selectiva. Hezbollah (el nombre significa “partido de Alá) tiene como uno de sus objetivos fundacionales destruir Israel y usa aldeas cristianas del sur (como Qawzah o Rmaych) para lanzar cohetes y misiles contra territorio israelí . También se dan agresiones a barrios y manifestantes cristianos en Beirut, apropiación de tierras y represión política contra líderes opositores, generando un clima generalizado de temor, marginación y enfado entre la comunidad cristiana.

El papa @Pontifex_es está perdídisimo. ¡Pone a Líbano donde los cristianos están siendo diezmados y donde Hezbolá campa a sus anchas como ejemplo de convivencia" 😲

@cmalex79 To be clear, most serious theologians see Islam as a different religion, but they do not see it as pagan.

I can’t imagine why this has to be answered again, but here goes. Because there are Islamic scholars who professionally use the library. Muslims pray five times a day on a very strict schedule. They do not just pray sitting down quietly. They have physical gestures to do and words that need to be spoken out loud. The scholars asked if there would be a room that they could go to where they could privately do their thing without interrupting any of the other library patrons. The Vatican said yes, and provided them with a small space.

@FatherChrisVor1 And why did he put a muslim prayer room in the vatican?

@FatherChrisVor1 How often do they visit? Are there any other religions that require this level of accommodation? Do you think they would provide a prayer room for the Pope? I didn’t think so

From this post, Elon is suggesting the AI5 chip is targeted for both Optimus and their training cluster (running reinforement learning for FSD/Optimus).
This seems to signal that AI4 is sufficient for FSD and the scale out of Robotaxi.
We are not waiting on AI5 for Robotaxi.
Elon Musk@elonmusk
@teslaownersSV @TaiwanSemi_TSC @Samsung Optimus and our supercomputer clusters. AI4 is enough to achieve much better than human safety for FSD.
