"The driver shortage" narrative over the past two years has caused the largest amount of startup trucking fleets in history. This is not a meme stock - these are actual entrepreneurs that have started their own trucking company. Thread 1/n
This is going to be an initiative to keep an eye on for #oceanshipping and #supplychain regulation.

Women deserve to have control of our bodies & access to reproductive healthcare – period.
The overnight ruling by SCOTUS validating an extreme, over-reaching TX law is a full-scale assault on this right & requires urgent action by Congress.
