For my new followers, here’s the lowdown: ➡️ First act was in government. Middle East analyst for the State Department, pre and post 9/11. Ended up as POTUS 43’s Asian American policy surrogate. ➡️ Second act was an entrepreneur. Co-founded and bootstrapped @buzzshift in 2010.

BIG NEWS for Texas today! @NYSE is launching NYSE Texas in Dallas. This will cement Texas' position as a national and global economic powerhouse. Texas will be the financial capital of America.

If you are a marketing agency with a website dev service offering, you might want to jump on this one. If you haven't already.

My wife asked to see the credit card statement so she can figure out why we don’t have any money and I told her very sternly that she is a danger to democracy

It's becoming clearer and clearer that we're looking at a seismic shift in the US's relationship with the world, between: 1) The US dismantling its foreign interference apparatuses (like USAID 👇) 2) Marco Rubio stating that we're now in a multipolar world with "multi-great

Election night challenge: Every time a state is called, drop and do that number of electoral college votes in pushups (🟥) or squats (🟦). Then take a shot of your favorite liquor. R or D, they will both do your body good. Bonus: you won’t feel it until at least late tomorrow

What Chris has endured here on X is sobering. The truth always comes out, and I’m so proud of the way my friend is handling such a stressful situation, not only for him but also his family and colleagues at Fort Capital. Proud of you, @fortworthchris.

A remarkable photo captured by my former White House Press Corps colleague Doug Mills. Zoom in right above President Trump’s shoulder and you’ll see a bullet flying in the air to the right of President Trump’s head following an attempted assassination.

If you think the Trump shooting was staged, you're an idiot. Multiple reports have the shooter as dead, and the former president was hit an inch away from his brain. That's not a "staged false flag," it's an assassination attempt. And it's repulsive and undemocratic.

In moments like this I thank god @elonmusk bought @X so that we have an unvarnished access to real-time events Rather than this complete bullshit from MSM

So, who’s been in charge all along?

Way to go, Dallas weather. Proud of you. #SolarEclipse2024

"Always more audacity." - Winston Churchill That's it. That's the tweet.

Science fair projects suck. Science fair projects are awesome. I worked with my 14yr old over the last three days to complete a DIY science project. Watched him try and fail at building three different methods before he even got to test out his hypothesis. Hope, anticipation,

Corollaries: All technical managers must have hands-on experience. For example, managers of software teams must spend at least 20% of their time coding. Solar roof managers must spend time on the roofs doing installations. Otherwise, they are like a cavalry leader who can’t ride

4. Accelerate cycle time. Every process can be speeded up. But only do this after you have followed the first three steps. In the Tesla factory, I mistakenly spent a lot of time accelerating processes that I later realized should have been deleted.

3. Simplify and optimize. This should come after step two. common mistake is to simplify and optimize a part or a process that should not exist.

2. Delete any part or process you can. You may have to add them back later. In fact, if you do not end up adding back at least 10% of them, then you didn’t delete enough.

1. Question every requirement. You should never accept that a requirement came from a department, such as from “the legal department” or “the safety department.” You need to know the name of the real person who made that requirement. Then you should question it, no matter how

Finishing up the Elon Musk bio by Walter Isaacson, and his management "algorithm" really stuck out to me. The corollaries were even more thought-provoking. I can understand the breakneck speed at which he was building Tesla in the early days but.... whew. What a grinder.
