While many already do, I think all political & company leaders should post on this platform themselves directly, as it bypasses the legacy media negativity filter. Your actual message will reach people, instead of some reporter’s often unfair hit piece. Sure, you might say something silly once in a while, as I do, but that way people know it’s really you! Authenticity matters vastly more than the occasional gaffe when talking face to face and the same is true online. And your message can reach thousands of times more people than a random newspaper article. There are about 600 million active monthly users on this platform and, when counting those who log in occasionally (usually to learn about a real-time crisis), roughly a BILLION people with active accounts. Moreover, this platform is where the most influential people in the world are. I don’t use anything else personally and the same is true for many people I know.
Elon Musk: There must be some reason why 169 million people follow me. I must be keeping them amused in some way. “I do post a lot on the 𝕏 platform, sometimes 100 times a day. So, once in a while, I'll do something dumb, for sure. But I really try to say things that I think are interesting or funny. There must be some reason why 169 million people follow me. I guess, I don't know. I must be keeping them amused in some way. Amuse, entertain, have opinions on something. Sometimes they're wrong, sometimes they're right. Community Notes applies to me as well as it applies to anyone else. If I say something that's incorrect or not full-context, then Community Notes will correct me very quickly. But it's only me doing these posts, ever. I don't have a team or anything. In fact, I generally would recommend for leaders of the world to just literally post your own stuff. And once in a while, you make a mistake. Don't worry about it. Can't win them all. Nobody bats a thousand.” European Jewish Association, 2024

The number of hunting licenses sold annually in the United States is greater than the number of troops in the world’s 10 largest militaries combined. Politicians considering gun confiscation (aka mandatory buybacks) should chew on that.

This is the closest analogy nature provides to passing a bill in the Texas House of Representatives!

This is courage.
I asked Jonathan Isaac two questions: You didn’t kneel during the anthem but you also didn’t wear a black lives matter shirt. Do you believe black lives matter? Can you explain what religion has to do with kneeling for the anthem to protest against racism and police brutality?

More #COVID19 restrictions are coming down the pipeline in Travis County. County Judge Sam Biscoe sent a letter to @GovAbbott today asking he make face masks mandatory, roll back business capacity to 25% and enforce bans on gatherings of more than 10 people.
