The left thinks you’ve gotten involved in Politics out of a craving for power
When in reality it seems like what you actually want is to ensure we maintain the balance of power into the future
Trying to entrench one side is very different than trying to maintain balance between two sides
This is deeply misunderstood

In the summer of 1994, a 23-year-old Elon Musk spent his days in Los Gatos at Pinnacle Research Institute, dreaming up how ultracapacitors could power electric cars and even Star Wars–style laser guns. Then, around 5 p.m. every evening, he drove to Palo Alto for his second job at Rocket Science Games, a startup full of future legends, from Tony Fadell, who would later build the iPod, to the people behind Apple's QuickTime and engineers from Industrial Light & Magic.
They hired him to write the most boring code imaginable, drivers so joysticks and mice would work with games, but Elon quietly gave himself a much harder problem 😂: figuring out how a computer could run a game and stream video from a CD at the same time, something the machines of that era simply couldn't do.
Peter Barrett, one of the company's founders, remembered him as "completely unflappable," and said that after a while nobody was giving him directions at all, because he was just building what he wanted to build. Bruce Leak, who hired him, said: "He had boundless energy." So yeah, nobody handed Elon the big problem, he just went looking for it, at night, after a full day at another job. This is who Elon Musk is 💙

James Talarico now calls himself a "border security Democrat."
His Texas House record says otherwise.
While millions poured across the border under Biden, Talarico voted NO on:
❌ $1.8 billion for border security ❌ The Texas Border Protection Unit ❌ Arrest powers for Border Patrol ❌ Funding for the border wall (twice) ❌ Tougher human smuggling penalties ❌ Making illegal entry a state crime (twice) ❌ Requiring sheriffs to work with ICE
Nine votes. Nine NOs.
Don’t send Talarico to Washington to vote with the Democrats who let millions pour across the border.
