@KobeissiLetter 2022 was four years ago. That is hardly imminent.

This is truly unfortunate: In 2022, JetBlue had agreed to merge with Spirit Airlines in a $3.8 billion transaction. This was intended to end Spirit's imminent bankruptcy and employ the majority of Spirit's 17,000 employees. One year later, in 2023, the US Department of Justice sued to block the merger, saying it would reduce competition and drive up fares. Fast forward another 2 years to today, and Spirit has officially gone bankrupt, ceased operations, and 17,000 people are now unemployed. And, tens of thousands of Spirit passengers are now "stranded." The worst part? The "reduced competition" that the DOJ thought they were avoiding by blocking the transaction has only gotten worse. There quite literally is no competition in the space anymore. This will go down as one of the biggest transactional failures in US history.

@WorldlyHQ Your hurdle for smartest person in the world is pretty low.

This must be the smartest person in the world...

@xayviza Is that the only color clothing they had at the store?

It’s easy to tell who comes from old money… and who just got rich.

@annamv10 I can help you with one of those. I have some ideas on how to cure long Covid.

I have two big wishes, to fully recover from long covid and to get knocked up by the love of my life

@sakpo0007_ @Oluchiisxn That’s a bit of a reach. I might go with stupidist grandma alive.

This is the smartest grandpa alive 😂🤣

@MattWallace888 Is there a way to download stupid post like this so that I don’t have to see them?

I was not expecting her to throw the pitch like that!

@C_3C_3 What do you mean pull off Covid? Covid caused 14.9 m excess deaths in 2020 -2021.

If Elon owned Twitter in 2020 they would not have been able to pull off COVID. Fact.

@Acyn @joncoopertweets Ballroom hold 2,000 peps. Where they gonna park?

Lindsey Graham says they are going introduce legislation that’s going to authorize 400 million dollars to be spent on building the ballroom: We pay for it by offsetting it with customs fees. The sooner we get the ballroom built, the better it is for the country.

@Acyn @joncoopertweets For the good of the country, let’s spend $400m On a ballroom. And stop whining about not having health care. Funny.

@dvorahfr @elonmusk Funny. Well-being of humanity! Funny. Richest man in the world. Give us a list of his charitable contributions. He has done nothing for me.

To those who pit Sam Altman and Elon Musk against each other like a billionaire feud, look, do your own research. When have you ever seen Elon Musk use his money to buy a yacht, a paradise island, or engage in extravagant spending? Even the money from this lawsuit, if he wins, will be donated to charity. On the other hand, why did Sam Altman change the bylaws of OpenAI, which was a non-profit organization? Why is everything opaque at OpenAI? Who benefits from the money? To all the skeptics, do your own research. I have no doubt about your conclusions if you seek the truth. On one side, there is a man who dedicates his life to the well-being of humanity, and on the other, a man who seeks profit, even at the risk of endangering humanity. Elon Musk must win.

@ArthurMacwaters It’s great to have the world’s richest person looking out for the best interests of all of us poor people.

In 1913, only 1% of households filed income tax Now, 100% do. Every time a tax scheme is created, it starts with "just the rich" and quickly applies to everyone. Every time. California will seize assets of every citizen if this passes. Not income, assets. Your house. Your furniture. This would end the Golden State.

@antibearthesis Great plan. And you should add to it with excess earnings. Make a pact to set aside some percentage, five, 10, 25,… Every payday

I’m 21 with $45,000 invested. If I just put it all into $QQQ and let compounding do its thing for 30 years, i’d be a multimillionaire by 50. No trading. No stress. No extra contributions. Why wouldn’t this work?

@TiffanyFong Me

who’s in las vegas ?

@Real_jaeflex @Oluchiisxn Juice

Which did she drink?

@LargeFamDad You are welcome to your perspective. But speaking personally as a single guy a little bit older than that making a little bit more than that. I’m just happy every day. I enjoy myself, I do what I want. I am not constantly in pursuit of the next dopamine rush. The next adventure

My boss's boss is like 42, never married, no kids. Earns $275-300K per year. Goes on a minimum of two international vacations a year w/ his girlfriend. 10+ days, all out. Eats the best food, stays in top notch accomodations. Excursions, tours, nicest beaches, etc. Great guy, I'm happy for him. But what I've realized is that without kids, you end up chasing a lifestyle that has to continually be topped in order for you to be satisfied and find happiness. What he and others like him don't understand is that when you have children, seeing THEM experience life's most basic things and watching their eyes light up at all the "firsts", brings greater pleasure and joy than any vacation or travel experience ever could. Seeing THEM try blueberries for the first time is greater than dining at the best 5 star restaurant in Europe. Seeing THEM learn how to walk is greater than walking the Great Wall of China or strolling along the most picturesque beach. Watching THEM giggle uncontrollably at "peek-a-boo" tops any A-list comedian act. Seeing THEIR excitement when building a fort out of cardboard boxes and making a door big enough for daddy is superior to staying at 5-star resorts. Flying kites with THEM far outweighs excursions like parasailing or helicopter rides. Seeing THEM perform a recital on stage for the first time is more rewarding than watching a Broadway show or top notch symphony orchestra. ----------------- When you have children, all of a sudden you realize that life's greatest joys are not in the pursuit of things or pleasure or travel, but rather in the LOVE and bond you share with your very own image bearers. Seeing the beauty and magnificence and wonder of life all over again for the first time through THEIR eyes and expressions gives you something the world simply cannot offer, nor even come close.

@usanewshq @MattWallace888 @SenWarren In the first place, you don’t have investment team as smart as Harvard is working for you. In the second place, until you can write billion dollar checks, the VC’s are not going to show you the same great opportunities. They show Harvard. You will get the dregs.

“Wall Street wants to dump its risky assets in your 401(k)” is a wild way to describe giving workers the same investment options that Harvard’s endowment has used for decades. 77% of Harvard’s portfolio is in alternatives, only 14% in public stocks. @SenWarren worked there and had zero issues with it. But regular Americans getting access? Suddenly it’s a crisis!

@unusual_whales Tucker knew who he was, he knew what he was doing, and he did it anyway. He’s reprehensible. Sorry is not enough. He needs to fix it.

Tucker Carlson: “I’ll be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. And I want to say that I’m sorry for misleading people.”

@ItsAmahAdoma @Oluchiisxn Can solve, Yes they exist. Will solve, probably not.

Do such men exist? 🤔🫣🫵🏼

@mazemoore @michaeljknowles How on earth do I block you? I really have no interest in seeing your avatar, or hearing anything you have to say.

@michaeljknowles This video should really be enough to ban this practice.

The most horrifying video I've ever seen in my life.

@TiffanyFong @SenWarren

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than: Tesla Southwest Disney Live Nation HP United PayPal CVS Health Palantir Citigroup PG&E 3M That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax. It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.
