“Elon Musk’s charitable foundation grew larger than ever in 2024. But, for the fourth year in a row, the huge charity failed to give away the minimum amount required by law — and the donations it did make went largely to charities closely tied to Mr. Musk himself.”

The air campaign over Yemen wasn’t a failure of execution; it was a failure of strategy. Biden and Trump both bet on airpower to coerce the Houthis, despite decades of evidence that it can’t force political change. Tactical success, strategic futility. My latest⬇️

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

Two things:

1) How can people floating in open water continue a drug run? Swim a thousand miles towing a crate?

2) More importantly, drugs are not weapons, and a drug run is not a national security threat, especially not an immediate one to the world's most powerful navy.

All corporate CEOs should understand: If you agree to attend an event at the White House, you are very likely to be filmed nodding appreciatively at a delusional racist rant. If you're ok with that, go. If not, you probably should stay away.

He shouldn’t just be pushed out as the House Democrats’ leader; he needs to be primaried out of his seat entirely. Just a complete waste of a deep blue seat.
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."
