have reaffirmed a pay award of >$45 billion for , the chief executive, after it was thrown out in a challenge.

The vote was seen as a referendum on his of Tesla & on .

The vote result is a strong sign that shareholders still believe in & it could persuade the judge who voided the award to reinstate it.

Researchers estimate that if the top 1% of Americans paid the full amount of taxes they owed, it would raise $175 billion a year.

That’s just UNPAID taxes. Not new or higher taxes.

How about we make them pay their fair share and use the money to invest in the American people?

The things I don't like about the discussion on whether this is a state actor behind the backdoor are:

  • It doesn't change the response for pretty much anyone except a narrow group of professionals. Ultimately I don't know that it matters for most of us if this was a state attacker or some kid who wants a way to get op privileges.

  • It distracts from next steps.

  • Would they think that if the actor were named John? Will this increase suspicion of anyone with a "foreign" sounding name?

But xe are the only security professional I've seen with this opinion, and this security professional certainly disagrees with xe.

People politely disagreeing with a subjective opinion deserve a better response than
A. Assumptions about gender
B. Assumptions about profession and skill
C. Pithy fucking "film at 11." dismissals.

" is even or ahead in the polls because millions of swing voters have no idea just how authoritarian a 2nd term would be

Blame the media's massive failure to pound the drums about 1/6 pardons, 'retribution' and looming dictatorship."

Most voters are intentionally uninformed.

American voters are wilfully uninformed.

Democracy requires voters to be wilfully informed.
