Hi Everyone! My family’s IT company is celebrating our 45th year in business. We decided to go retro!!! Thank you to all the folks that have trusted us to manage their IT!!! instagram.com/reel/C8IWW-Vt1…

@travelingflying Yes, at a drive-in theater, believe or not!!!

Did someone here see Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope in theaters when it came out in 1977?

@Rainmaker1973 Don’t open the windows.

If humans colonize Mars, what should be the first rule we all agree to follow?

@elonmusk And my hiring cost for local programmers just went up by $150k/yr.

SpaceX is actively hiring world-class engineers/physicists for SpaceXAI, even if you have zero prior experience in AI. Smart humans figure it out fast. Please send an email with ~3 bullet points demonstrating evidence of exceptional ability to ai_eng@spacex.com.

@AuntJoJo11 👍

We did a thing today!! Traded in our Wrangler for this beauty!! I'm so excited ❤️

@JackPosobiec Everyone was proud to be an American.

What do you remember about the 1976 Bicentennial?

@JonathanTurley Most concise summarization of the constitution I’ve ever heard.

...The American Constitution was a rejection of the “bad ideas” that politicians (called demagogues in Ancient Greece) have historically used to marshal the power of the mob to fulfill their own ambitions. Now that was a good idea.

The Hill is out with my column on Kamala Harris's "bad idea" list from packing the Court to creating new states once Democrats retake power. thehill.com/opinion/judici… Contrary to her podcast claim, there are bad ideas, just as there are bad people who want to win at any cost.

This is the longform version of the master plan to remake America’s government, a plan I’ve outlined in pieces across various threads. The protests and foreign-policy interventions are all moving toward the same end: a transformed American system of governance designed to prevent another Trump from ever taking power again. In effect, the United States has become its own democratic-transition project. We are living through a color revolution. Read more below.

@elonmusk @TheEVuniverse @SawyerMerritt @Starlink That’s sounds like Delta. They pretty much operate as a closed system.

Not exactly. SpaceX requires that there be no annoying “portal” to use Starlink. Starlink WiFi must just work effortlessly every time, as though you were at home. Delta wanted to make it painful, difficult and expensive for their customers. Hard to see how that is a winning strategy.

Delta rejected adopting SpaceX's @Starlink on its fleet because it wanted to provide internet connectivity to passengers via the Delta Sync portal, instead of the Starlink-branded portal. Delta has since chosen to partner with Amazon's LEO. This will result in Delta falling behind many of its competitors in offering high-speed WiFi onboard, as many other carriers are already offering or installing Starlink, whereas Amazon's LEO airplane WiFi for Delta is still a couple year away (or more). Satellites currently in orbit: • SpaceX's Starlink: 10,400 • Amazon's LEO: 300 (Delta rejection info according to Ron Baron)

@congressdj 100% There are still too many navigation errors not to allow manual overrides. Driver input needs to mean something!

A major FSD 14.3.2 annoyance. The inability for me override turns with a manual turn signal. If this were a Robotaxi, I’d have added a minute to the route. Road closed ahead, can’t alter route, so we take the big go-around option. Note: manual signaling works on the freeway.

@vad3rt3sla We need a law stating you can’t get a ticket if on FSD!

I would love Tesla to add a feature to be able to mark police offers so that FSD automatically slows down. I speak for everyone.

@SawyerMerritt Speed control. Standard is too slow, hurry is too fast.

If you use any version of FSD (Supervised) V14, what is the most common reason you disengage (even if it’s rare)?

@pmarca Thank God for Texas!

The gulf in knowledge between the West Coast and East Coast is wildly broader than I’ve ever experienced, in both directions. And widening further by the day.

@elonmusk Vox Populi, Vox Dei?

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

@Teslaconomics As suspected, Tesla learned to drive in California. You would have 10 speeding tickets if you made that drive in Georgia. @Tesla please return speed control to FSD!!!

Right now, the smartest real world AI in the world - Tesla FSD v14.3.1 - is driving me to Napa on a 2-hour trip, 100% autonomously in Mad Max mode, taking the most efficient route possible. I’m sitting back, enjoying my fresh coffee, completely stress-free, not worrying one bit about getting in an accident (I don’t even know where I’m going tbh…) High-speed Starlink is beaming down from space straight into my Cyberbeast, so my two kids can learn and work with Grok - the smartest digital AI in the world - while my significant other sits right beside them, doing work on her computer during the commute. You and I may be on the same road, heading to the same place… but bc of Tesla and SpaceX’s technology, we are living completely different lives. I’m living in the yr 2069, a majority of people are living in 2026.

@Tesla This needs to be said. Speed control with FSD sucks. Standard is too slow. Hurry is too fast. School zones speed limits are ignored. We need a way to override the defaults. I hope this is on your roadmap.

@conflict_desk @kniborg @KirkLubimov And they can legally kill you. Corporations usually don’t get that powerful. Don’t forget that part.

@kniborg @KirkLubimov (1/2) Don’t fool yourself thinking government centralization is a moral corrective it’s a breeding ground for the very same traits you despised in corporations, just dressed in bureaucratic robes.

This is the best part from Pierre Poilievre appearance on the Diary of a CEO podcast; "Those who push a socialist ideology have a gross contradiction in their view of human nature. They say that human beings are wretched, self-interested, greedy when they’re in the private voluntary economy, but they’re angels when they’re in the governmental economy. They argue that the government should just control everything because then we have all these angels that will decide for us." 🎯

@AnthropicAI @claudeai Can you please allow us to change the margins in Claude desktop? There are 4 inches of wasted space.

@aakashgupta Technically, it’s a coach, not a bus. Love this for smaller markets. Airlines have needed to reframe themselves as transportation companies for years.

American Airlines has 77 regional planes sitting in storage because they can't find pilots to fly them. The expected U.S. pilot shortfall in 2026 is 24,000. Training a new commercial pilot takes 2-3 years minimum and costs six figures. So American found a loophole. Partner with a bus company, brand the bus "American Eagle," sell the seat on aa.com with a flight number, route passengers through TSA, let them pick a seat, check bags, earn AAdvantage miles. The entire experience is designed to feel like a flight in every way except the part where you leave the ground. The economics are staggering. A regional jet on a 90-mile route needs two pilots ($100K+ each), a flight attendant, jet fuel, FAA maintenance requirements, and an aircraft that costs $20-30 million. The Landline bus needs one driver and a highway. South Bend to Chicago O'Hare is 90 miles. That route doesn't make money with a regional jet anymore. It barely made money before the pilot shortage. The bus lets American keep selling connections through O'Hare to every destination in its network without operating a single flight. This is what the pilot shortage actually looks like. Not cancelled routes. Not smaller airports going dark. The airline just quietly reclassified a bus as a flight and kept charging accordingly. The TikTok exposing it has 13 million views because the passenger cleared security, sat at a gate, and watched her luggage get loaded onto a coach before it merged onto the interstate. The word "bus" appears once during booking in small text. Google Flights lists it with a tiny bus icon. The airline says customers are "transparently informed." 72% of U.S. airports have already lost an average of 25% of their flights to the shortage, and Landline is expanding, not shrinking. Philadelphia, Chicago, and now five regional airports are on the bus network. American Airlines is solving a $28,000-per-pilot-shortfall crisis by removing the pilot from the equation entirely. The bus is the product now. The flight number is just packaging.

𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘'𝗦 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗠𝗣 — 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗜 𝗩𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗗 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗛𝗜𝗠 𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗪𝗔𝗬 Some of you genuinely think Trump supporters believe this man is perfect. That he can do no wrong. That we're in some kind of cult. We don't. He can. We aren't. Some of us are just mature enough to say: 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁'𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. So here it is. My honest list. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲: The social media. The all-caps, impulsive posting, unnecessary jabs. Sometimes the best move is to shut up. Not every fire needs fuel. He could calm situations instantly if he stopped feeding the outrage machine. The cockiness. 𝗡𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲'𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲. 𝑶𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒅𝒐 𝒊𝒕. It gets old. Tell me what's being done. Tell me what's coming. Skip the self-praise. The personal attacks that go on too long. Call out what needs to be called out — then move on. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗺: He's real. Not rehearsed. Most politicians are polished and presidential — and it sounds nice — but it's usually fake. Trump is raw, blunt, and imperfect. But 𝗜 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀. He doesn't read from a script written by donors and PR teams. In a world full of performance politicians, that honesty is refreshing. He answers questions and doesn't hide. He doesn't dodge the press. He doesn't disappear for days. He doesn't need a teleprompter to breathe. Even when reporters frame questions to trap him — he still answers. 𝗛𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗵𝗲'𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼. This is why millions still support him. Most candidates campaign on big promises, then magically can't deliver once in office. Trump follows through more consistently than any president I've seen in my lifetime. He puts America first. You can hate his style — but the results speak. He fights for our borders, our economy, our energy, our sovereignty, our safety. He doesn't bend to global pressure. He doesn't apologize for America. I don't support Trump because I think he's perfect. I support him because I agree with his mission: 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗻𝘀, 𝗲𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝘄𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝘂𝗻 𝗯𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗸, 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁. Stop pretending the only reason people support Trump is because they're brainwashed. Some of us simply looked at the outcomes — and chose the leader who fights for our country. Faith. Family. Freedom. 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 — 𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲.
