James Talarico is going to spend the next three weeks trying to convince Texans he is a moderate. Moderates don't say things like this:

Iran executed someone every 4.3 hours in the past year, according to the Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA). That’s 2,003 executions in 12 months. These are young people. Every single one of them is a whole lifetime. So many of us say that if we had lived through the Holocaust, we would have done something. We would have taken action. This is that same kind of moment.

Gavin Newsom: "Elon Musk is one of the great disappointments...he's ceding the EV space to China...he's put the brakes on his own innovation" What did we do to deserve such a ridiculous buffoon for governor? Truly the dumbest mimbo alive.

9 signs you’re wealthier than you think: Your income increased, but your lifestyle barely changed. You can afford a luxury car, but you’re perfectly happy driving your old one. You don’t care whether people think you’re rich. You can walk away from a bad job without worrying about paying your bills. You value an extra day with your family more than an extra paycheck. You could upgrade your house, but you’d rather invest the difference. You don’t rush to buy the latest iPhone, car, or gadget. An unexpected $5,000 expense is an inconvenience, not a financial crisis. You buy things because they improve your life, not because they impress strangers. Real wealth is having options. The ultimate flex is not needing to flex.

I've been traveling the world a bit. One of the most incredible experiences was getting to visit Taiwan w/ @JensenHuang. It was wild 🤯.. huge crowds of engineers, insanely good street food at night markets, and of course a lot of good conversations across many days. I caught some of it on video, see below.
