Another life saved by the CT scan! This is what 90% blockage looks like. 50, vegetarian, no alcohol, exercise, no symptoms, ldl cholesterol 90 (in the green). Took the scan, got a stent & avoided the silent killer. Do the same. $150 & 15 mins can save your life! 🤍🙏

Time to open the process to more scrutiny. It should be law that all bill drafts are digitally accessible to the public at least 7 days before any vote in Congress. We should be able to slice & dice right here w @grok rather than just relying on VivekGPT.

Vote NO. Time to Get Fit! No self respecting citizen wants to confine their child to a bankrupt tomorrow just so they can over-feast at the pig trough today. Balance the Budget. @DOGE

Occam’s Razor. No act in my lifetime undermined trust more than the gov’t denial / cover up of something so patently obvious to the vast majority of Americans. It woke us all to the sacred value of free speech / debate. We are stronger when all sides are freely heard. 🇺🇸

New assessment released by the CIA: COVID-19 likely emerged from the Wuhan laboratory, whose research Anthony Fauci promoted and funded. The NIH tried to cover it up. Tech companies censored the truth. Biden pardoned Fauci pre-emptively. "Conspiracy theory" is now reality.

To be clear - @DOGE will be far more ambitious than simply balancing the budget. Reigning in the admin state is as much about freedom as eliminating wasteful spending. And the most basic freedom is letting people keep more of their hard earned $. 🇺🇸@VivekGRamaswamy @elonmusk

Heads should roll in LA & Sacramento - the total failure of leadership w regard to these fires are impeachable offenses. This adds to the long list of failed progressive experiments that have crushed this state - California’s next Reagan revolution is getting closer by the day.

Massive fires in highly populated areas are preventable It is policy decisions that allow them to happen California continues to put citizens lives & property at risk for no good reason Historical strategies include *Controlled burns *Removal of fallen wood *Clearing dense

Tesla FSD is pure magic and transformed how I drive! All this mis-directed hate toward @Tesla & @elonmusk sadly obscures the fact that FSD makes humans more productive, more safe & happier! Mobility will change more in the next 2 years than in the last 100! 🇺🇸🚀🫡@jimcramer

David Faber on CNBC today: "I had the opportunity to ride in a @Tesla this weekend on FSD. It's worth doing. The steering wheel was not touched. The technology is real. People are driving 100 miles out of New York City and not touching the steering wheel once." - @davidfaber

Hugely innovative, impactful & incredibly humane. @DOGE acting fast to downsize federal gov’t. Let’s find ways to increase employee conversion - flatter is faster & leaner is better! Already bigger / faster than anything gov’t has done in decades & just the start! 🙏🇺🇸🫡

BREAKING: Trump administration to offer all 2 million federal workers the chance to take a “deferred resignation” with a severance package of eight months of pay and benefits. 5-10% of the workforce is estimated to quit, which could lead to around $100 billion in savings.

Elon - When the bond market realizes we are 100% serious about cutting spending & balancing the budget - rates go down and families immediately benefit from lower interest on credit cards, mortgages & car payments. Back to the 2019 Baseline. Its time to get fit! 🎯🇺🇸

Will never understand why we insist on Daylight Savings Time & Standard Time - who in the world wants the sun to set at 5.09 pm? The day was just fine yesterday when it set at 6.10 pm. 🌅🤷‍♂️

Such a terrible, bitter, & sad take on America. This country is full of heroic journeys of social mobility - folks like me who started w nothing but always believed we had a shot. Thank God the vast majority of Americans reject your cynical, socialist nonsense. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

Heart disease is the #1 killer. Tracking cholesterol does NOT reduce your risk. Make the Calcium CT Scan the standard of care for everyone over 35. $150 & 15 mins. We started the Center for Heart Attack Prevention as a Calcium CT moonshot that can save 100k lives per year! 🤍

1/If you owned growth stocks this year - like we did at Altimeter - you got your face ripped off. As a hedge fund we expect to lose less than the indexes on the way down - this year we have lost more. Our Big 4 - Snow, Meta, MSFT, and Uber are all down big. #keepingitreal

DeepSeek should not be dismissed but is NOT a Chinese break thru on AI cost which caused Monday’s panic. The reports they spent $6 M vs. billions for @OpenAI, @AnthropicAI & @xai are fake news. Apples for Apples is $6 M vs $15 M. And given they did nearly a year later, should be
