So Trump has access to the nuclear codes but he can't Tweet or post to Facebook.- Please pray for my pal @DavidLat. He is only 44 years old. He is a brilliant mind and a kind soul. All of us are pulling hard for him right now. #COVID19 #StayAtHome
- There is a financial literacy epidemic in America. Quick lesson: NYC wasn’t handing cash to Amazon. It was an incentive program based on job creation, producing tax revenue. There isn’t a $3 billion pile of money that can now be spent on subways or education.
- Replying to @elonmusk and @alex_avoigtHere's how CNBC broke the news when the Tesla board announced the new 2018 CEO Compensation Plan on January 23, 2018, when Tesla was trading at a $59B market capitalization. 🔊🍿 @andrewrsorkin called it: "dare I say crazy" "perhaps the most radical compensation plan in history"
00:00 - I’m terribly distressed by the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and reports of his murder. I will no longer be participating in the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh.
- I often think about this exchange I had with @elonmusk. What would have happened if history had bent just slightly differently?
00:00 - Reminder: @SouthwestAir accepted $3.2 BILLION from taxpayers. That money kept its pilots employed during the pandemic. It also made @SouthwestAir the first airline to post a profit. And now, apparently, many of those pilots don’t want to help society by getting vaccinated.
- The self-checkout at the airport kiosk today asked whether I’d like to tip 15%, 20% or 25%? It is a SELF-CHECKOUT. What is happening?
- I've been working on this NYT project for months: Many of the deadliest mass shootings in the US were carried out by killers who used credit cards to buy high-powered weapons+ammunition that they couldn’t otherwise afford. No one was watching.
- My open letter to Walmart's CEO: You, singularly, have a chance to use your role as CEO of the country’s largest retailer to change the way guns are sold in America to prevent massacres like the one in your El Paso store.
