Zohran Mamdani is being heckled right now at a press conference in Brooklyn, NY, by someone whose words I can't hear, but watch how he's dealing with it. Mamdani has the unique skill of knowing how to handle and walk into every room and engage with people, no matter how toxic they are or how their feelings are against him. And many times, make them feel heard. Elected officials, nonprofit and religious leaders, advocates, and activists on both sides of the political spectrum who met with him told me that. Don't take my word for it, President Trump is pretty public about it. That's why he's currently the mayor of New York City. If you don't like his politics or you're like me, who opposed his candidacy and is still troubled by some of his actions and statements, then don't take this post the wrong way; read into it how you should be better to communicate your message. Yes, putting ego aside for any public figure is not easy.

It's so funny to look at these figures. Huang would have to pay a one-time $7 billion sum on $155 billion fortune. "Who cares" is absolutely the appropriate reaction. It means nothing to him. David Sacks types look like the biggest babies in the world.

Big things coming

You could chose your leftism to be identified with A) Build tons of cool fast trains and airports and affordable homes or B) Use a lot of weird words no one understands and ABOLISH COPS and 'eating bananas is actually colonialism.' One of the above works

Saikat Chakrabarti — AOC's fmr chief — isn't like other progressives: He's extremely wealthy. He's worth at least $167 million per his financial dsiclosure. He may be wealthier than Nancy Pelosi, who he's running to unseat in SF. I asked him about that. Here's what he told me:

did it work

Dan Campbell isn’t quitting. Love this

This dropped hearing aid prices by 90% . Countless people who couldn’t afford hearing aids can hear now. Biden has done a ton of stuff like this. Don’t listen to the doomposters who tell you it doesn’t matter who’s in office. It does.

Not really a milestone, but a staggering statistic: @Bruce_Power, the most productive thermal power plant on earth, has now produced, as of the end of 2023, 1,564.6TWh of electricity. It was the first plant to hit 1PWh, ahead of Gravelines in France, and once uprated to over 7,000MW, will be even more productive, not to mention the potential addition of up to 4,800MW of capacity at Bruce C, pushing it over 11,000MW nameplate, making it the largest thermal plant ever constructed.

A few days ago at a @betakit conference I spoke on the on the 🇨🇦 government's proposed changes to the capital gains inclusion rate. Afterwards, a # of people approached me asking for more clarification on my views. Here we go...

Always great to hear @DSkilleter on Free Lunch!

damn good thing they'll have all the proceeds from that **second home** to fall back on

Wow wild how all the entrepreneurs in California are taking base hits over big swings because the capital gains tax rate.

Anyone critiquing the new capital gains tax rates should take a look at the lifetime capital gains exemption... Hysteria over a policy that will exclusively impact the 0.01% of richest Canadians.

The new @Forbes 2024 World Billionaire list just dropped and Canada has 67 families on the list. Our new @SocialCP report, 'Billionaire Blindspot' helps explain why - sadly - none of them will be captured by StatsCan in their wealth survey. Read here!👇 socialcapitalpartners.ca/scp…

Massive news out of today's FES for employee-ownership. With the addition of tax incentives announced today, the government now has a package that will meaningfully shift ownership of companies to Canadian workers.

Very well said

I’m proud to share some BIG NEWS for Canadian businesses: Float now offers 4% interest on your Float C$ and US$ cash balances from the first dollar. 🧵
