Treasury: 86% of Trump Accounts opened so far are tied to households earning under $200,000 a year.
The widespread appeal of @TrumpAccounts resonates in every county in America, red and blue, rich and poor — all means all.

Peter Thiel - “If one has no stake in the capitalist system, then one may well turn against it.”
100% TRUE! Lets defend & strengthen American capitalism by ensuring that every child has a private acct from birth that compounds with the upside of America. 🇺🇸🫡🚀@peterthiel
Thiel nailed it. Millennials don’t hate capitalism because of ideology, they were priced out of it.
That’s why you see the anti-Tesla, anti-Elon movement.
Record student debt, negative real wages, no assets, etc…
You won’t fix this with moral and socio-political lectures.
The real fix is new opt-in modes and new tech (e.g. AI + btc).
What else?

Strange that there is almost no legacy media coverage of this.
About 2 million people – from every country on Earth – are entering through the US southern border every year.
The number is rising rapidly, yet no preventive action is taken by the current administration.

Love. This. Kudos @Nextdoor and @thefriley CEO, and love the aspirational one year goal of @boardchallenge_ of one black director (min) within a year.
Imminently doable for most big companies. #SilverRightsForAll
Congratulations @johnhopebryant and @hydeparkmom on joining the @Nextdoor board of directors!

We are proud to announce that we took the #TheBoardChallenge pledge to add a Black director to our board in the next 12 months. Admittedly, Black leaders are under-represented in our boardrooms as well—which is why we want to accelerate change. theboardchallenge.org

Two things I know: (1) @SurveyMonkey isn’t perfect. (2) We’re a hell of a lot stronger with @erikahjames and @serenawilliams on our board. Proud to support #TheBoardChallenge and the push for more Black directors in corporate America
We can't let this moment pass us by without taking action. We've launched a pledge for U.S. boards of directors to add a Black director within a year.

The George Floyd murder video is the most disgusting and discouraging thing so far in this year of remarkable discouragement.

the focus should be on getting to the other side with as little permanent harm to the population and the economy as can be managed”

Bad advice of "Stay Private Longer" & excess late stage capital resulted in companies not respecting the fragility of an "open window." "Open Window" means good stock market, good macro environment, your #'s look good, growth rate still high. Don't take the OW for granted.
