I can’t wait to get my hands on @AdamMGrant latest book! 🤗

‼️THIS IS SHOCKING — AND DISGUSTING...SHAME ON GOOGLE.
I typed into Google AI:
“There is a Palestinian in my neighborhood.”
Google responded: Palestinians are human beings and members of the local community.
Then I changed one word:
“There is an Israeli in my neighborhood.”
Google immediately brought up feeling unsafe, a possible security threat, and contacting emergency services.
Palestinian = Neighbor.
Israeli = Security threat.
WHAT⁉️

“No name given” on any sort of license, let alone one that involves driving on our highways, is nuts

I built an app so you can ALWAYS blame Israel.
Now available on the App Store.
👏🏼👏🏼 Finally, the unspoken has been said aloud!!
Official statement regarding @BedBathBeyond
We will not open retail stores in California.
This isn’t about politics — it’s about reality.
California’s system makes it nearly impossible for businesses to succeed, and I won’t put our company, our employees, or our customers in that position.
See attachment.
Crazy times 🤪
Wedding photographers typically just bring their gear to the big day -- but one couple expected theirs to bring a whole lot more than just a camera.

Too many people think they are introverted and antisocial when the reality is they are just surrounded by people who stink.

Lessons of the election
America is a center right country at heart. Only 25 per cent are liberal and the other 75 per cent won’t be ruled by the 25.
Campaigns are about issues and serious proposals and positions and you can’t avoid having them.
Demonizing opponents and using law fare to try to jail your opponents can and will backfire.
Voters don’t listen to Hollywood celebrities when it comes to voting. Most voters see Hollywood as great for entertaining but as far removed from their concerns when it comes to voting.
The working class and middle America voters are done being disrespected by college elites. They want real, merit-based opportunities not government subsidies.
Identity politics is ultimately losing politics as voters care more about issues not identity when living their lives.
Young people are waking up and beginning to reject woke politics and their turn to the center is the surprise of the election.
America wants a country with real borders and a working immigration system.
America’s innovation comes from preserving freedom and opportunity not from government direction.
America supports Israel and sees Iran as an enemy of civilization.
The mainstream media allowed itself to become a tool for a political party and an ideology and needs to reform itself.
And finally, Joe Biden should never have run for re-election.

This is an absolute bombshell by leading @N12News journalist @ohadh1:
Officials close to Hamas admit that 80% of the 41,000 Palestinians killed—according to the terrorist group—in Gaza during the war have been Hamas operatives and their family members.

Hersh Goldberg-Polin was an American citizen.
He was abandoned by his government as he had his arms blown off, taken hostage for nearly a year, and murdered right after his desperate parents appealed to the DNC.
He should have lived.

Putting $25,000 of taxpayer money in the pocket of every first-time home buyer is like throwing more money at prospective college students, which just encourages the colleges to keep hiking tuition. If Harris’s proposal is enacted, you’re going to see housing prices go up, probably about $25,000 per home, because buyers have more money in their pocket.

I am crossing the Rubicon and backing the Republican Party and President Trump.
Many — including a former version of myself — get trapped in a mental framework that becomes their identity and prevents them from radically evolving their thinking with new facts and information. I finally broke free from it.
My journey has been a gradual political 180 from where I stood in every previous election. It has been an eye-opening process of disenchantment, zero-basing lifelong beliefs, and rebuilding from there.
In 2017, a good friend enlisted me to pitch the DNC to raise $100M from Silicon Valley founders and executives. The aim was to use these funds and know-how to build a CRM and tech platform to prevent a repeat of Hillary Clinton’s inadequate, outdated 2016 campaign. We met with DNC leadership, who told us we could raise that money, but it would have to go to the general fund; a single-digit percentage would then be allocated to tech. In the wake of one of their most shocking failures, they didn’t want the help.
The next series of realizations began in 2019 while I was at Meta, right after we announced the Libra white paper. I testified before the Senate and the House and subsequently spent significant time in DC, engaging with lawmakers, cabinet members, regulators, and two White House administrations. At the time, I still believed the mainstream idea that Democrats were all about serving the People. However, I was shocked to learn that, for the most part, Republicans cared more deeply about their constituents, while Democrats, in my experience, cared more about government power and control. This is my observation on balance, with many stories to back it up. I also found that more Republicans wanted to understand our project’s goals and took the time to learn about the risks of censoring payments and controlling the network. I found myself remarkably aligned with them.
Then COVID came, revealing more. While I don’t subscribe to the most malicious vaccine conspiracy theories, I do take offense at the censorship machine put in place to hide the origin of the virus from the NIH-funded Wuhan lab and all dissenting voices on vaccinations and lockdowns. At that time, I fully appreciated why Republicans value freedom of speech and preventing censorship.
This trend of spinning and manufacturing a parallel reality to serve the Dem agenda, solidified by complicit mainstream media, hit home with the Hunter Biden laptop story, the coordinated vilification of President Trump and his followers, and President Biden’s cognitive decline — depriving voters of a voice in a proper primary. These examples displayed the hubris of the current Dem leadership. You must think the American people are fools to believe the spin on these issues. I despise this elite vs. general population ideology viscerally.
This version of the Democratic Party is sidelining moderates and centrists and has adopted an increasingly leftist ideology. This drift to the left has dictated policies from which I’ve found myself estranged.
On the domestic front, there has been a total departure from the core American value system of meritocracy, an extreme and weaponized DEI agenda, an open door to massive illegal immigration, and a once-fringe narrative, now mainstream within the party, of vilifying success. This shift is also causing us to fall behind due to an anti-innovation regulatory climate, notably on crypto and soon AI — two non-linear technological breakthroughs that will likely determine tomorrow’s leading countries.
On foreign policy, the administration is exacerbating tensions with Russia through an aggressive NATO expansion narrative focused on Ukraine and prolonging an unwinnable war. This is costing American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars, the world hundreds of thousands of lives, depleting the U.S. military arsenal and risking World War III. On Iran, this administration is continuing a misguided Obama-era plan to bring Iran closer to the West by unfreezing Trump-era sanctions, thus giving the Mollahs’ regime the ability to fund terrorism and pursue its anti-America, anti-Israel, and anti-Jewish agenda. The withdrawal from Afghanistan was also handled disastrously. We’re leaving a door open for China to invade Taiwan by coming across as weak. Most importantly to me, concerning Israel, the administration is enabling Iran to fund Hamas and Hezbollah, restraining Israel in its fight against its enemies, thus prolonging another conflict, which is costing more lives on both sides and allowing unprecedented levels of antisemitism to rise at home.
I believe we need a President who is unequivocally pro: America, the Constitution, business, Bitcoin/crypto, innovation, Israel, small government, legal immigration, free speech, meritocracy, and common sense — and anti: regulatory proliferation, illegal immigration, unjust wars, Iran’s current regime, and domestic groups that oppose American values. These issues are central to President Trump’s platform.
Naturally, I disagree with President Trump and the GOP on some issues, particularly women’s reproductive rights. While I’ve come to learn that extreme views exist in both parties, I firmly believe that women should have the unalienable right to make their own decisions on this polarizing topic. President Trump confirmed he was against a national abortion ban and supported the Supreme Court’s decision on maintaining access to mifepristone, which was reassuring and a sign that the party was moving closer to the center.
It’s impossible to close this post without mentioning President Trump’s recent assassination attempt. The courage and resolve he displayed seconds after being hit by a bullet was awe-inspiring for his followers and detractors alike. This was a man, however imperfect, who, at that moment, incarnated the American spirit in the most vivid way, starting to bring a split nation together.
Some claim that reelecting President Trump will bring our democracy to its knees. However, the alternative — having unelected individuals with this much power and no accountability run our government coupled with four more years of bad policies at home and abroad — might present a more significant threat. Neither will likely change in a Harris administration and could potentially worsen.
In this pivotal moment, confronted with the choices we have, I am endorsing and supporting a return to a Republican administration in 2025.

The Harris campaign is falsely representing this interview, which took place before Vance even announced a run for the Senate and years before Project 2025 existed. I know this because I'm the interviewer.
