@JoeldWright @tvheidihatch Values don’t align

@tvheidihatch Does anyone know why they wouldn’t let Charlie Kirk come to BYU?

Tonight the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has released the following statement: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints condemns horrific acts of violence worldwide, including the recent assassination in Utah. We affirm our repeated calls to seek peace and unity despite our differences. Jesus Christ teaches us to love one another, that hate is wrong and that human life is sacred. We urge all to reject violence and instead build understanding. Recognizing that we are all children of God, we must treat one another with more dignity, compassion and respect. As we mourn with those who have experienced loss and care for those living in fear or conflict, we call upon people everywhere to build communities of greater kindness and love.

"This generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space." President John F. Kennedy's words from Sept 12, 1962 at Rice University still give us chills today. Watch the whole speech: go.nasa.gov/4pdYIkD

Such respect for @GovCox for the heartfelt, thoughtful plea he just delivered to our frayed American community. We can continue to barrel down this path of increasing violence, or choose a better path and resist the siren song of hate and division.

One of the greats. The soundtrack to so many of my happy memories

Working to build the standards that will enable a skills-first future. Convened a group, inlc. Google, McKinsey, Deloitte, Walmart, SHRM, Dept. Labor, last week to set out establishing a skills-first certification for organizations.

In an AI world, the all-on-nothing college degree is a liability. We need to learn over the entirety of our careers and reskilling needs to be more agile. Working to bring the world a more flexible credit framework: youtube.com/watch?v=z5CTd4…

Only solution to housing crisis is to build more. Make it more expensive for cities to NOT build than to build. Tax cities in relation to their housing supply imbalance. It is a choice to not build. Make that choice more expensive.

@kristymuir @TrentMano @johnsonjoe We were there tonight too—delicious!!

holy smokes @TrentMano you weren’t kidding, Mensho in SLC

@Delta how many Skymiles to get you to never again play ‘Adiemus’ while boarding? Maybe @VirginAtlantic can curate a playlist for you

One state ***increased*** its reading literacy for the bottom 10% of students while 49 other states let standards keep slipping. It was the poorest state in the country, Mississippi. In 2013 they enacted a rule where at 4th grade if you can’t read, you repeat until you can.

@aseoconnor Boo

so i’m guessing trump will pardon Elizabeth Holmes and SBF next?

The quicksand of tribalism causes you to focus on and glee over the stupidest opinions of the other team. The right and left both do this on twitter. Because tribalism is more about bonding with tribe mates rather than trying to learn from the best arguments of moderates.

@ChrisMurphyCT While you’re at it, no body voted for JD Vance either

@MarkHthomas @MittRomney Of course

I expanded on the horrors of California's government for @TheSpectator. It's much worse than you think. Thread:
