New York Times best-selling author @williamdcohan.bsky.social (𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴) has written two articles warning the public about this exact situation. However, he didn't write them a few days ago. Or a few weeks ago. Or even a few MONTHS ago. 3/

When illegal inside investors rake in billions at the expense of market integrity, confidence declines and the cost of capital increases. Put another way? Everything gets more expensive–for all of us. 2/

You may have seen the recent news that multiple suspiciously-timed financial trades have been made mere hours–sometimes minutes–before a Presidential announcement affecting the markets. Experts say the odds of these trades happening without inside information are, in their words, "impossible". 1/

We provide a political home for the more than 43% of Americans who don’t strongly align with either major political party—citizens who are increasingly disillusioned by the hyper-partisan, performative politics that dominate today’s landscape. /3

On @60minutes.bsky.social last night, Scott Pelley began by saying "it was nearly impossible to get anyone on camera for this story–because of the fear". Is it any surprise that one of the people NOT afraid also happens to be speaking at our @principlesfirst.bsky.social event in NYC on Thursday? /1

Yesterday, in Canada, they elected a leader with degrees from Harvard and Oxford. He has a PhD in economics. He led two different major banks through times of unprecedented crisis. Today, in America, we were treated to this.

The main idea: stop the “this is preposterous!” interviews for cable news. Take Trump’s plans seriously. Don’t just explain why they are bad on TV. Show why they are bad for people in real life—literally go find those Americans, stand beside them, and champion their cause.

10/10 You may, rightly, want to question MY motivations. It's a fair ask. My only answer to that, is this: I am not saying believe me. I am asking you NOT to believe me. I am also asking you NOT to believe him. Question...everything. Would Elon say the same?

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

9/10 America is at an inflection point right now, and things are moving extremely quickly. It is an absolute strategy by those in power to do so much, so fast, that people eventually throw their hands up in the air and give up. I implore you not to.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

8/10 Now, it could be a total coincidence that Musk's actions on the US government just so happen to align with China's interests. But, that is exactly the point of highlighting conflicts of interest--we simply do not know, nor will we ever know, his true motivations.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

7/10 What is BEYOND debate, however, is if USAID goes away, then China--who would gladly fill the void for these countries if America pulls out--would be extremely happy.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

6/10 In broad strokes, the mission of USAID is to assist countries in need, thereby deepening our relationships with and establishing America as the global leader. We can debate whether or not USAID has been efficient in that goal.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

5/10 To do so, he secured $4 billion in loans from Chinese government-controlled banks to build Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory, which now accounts for more than half of Tesla's global deliveries. This makes it a cornerstone of Musk's business empire. One of Musk's frequent targets recently is USAID.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

4/10 At the same time, Musk has no fewer than six huge conflicts of interest with the US government: Tesla, SpaceX, X, xAI, Neuralink, and cryptocurrency. Here's one example: as Tesla sales slow in the U.S., Musk is betting big on the Chinese market.

3/10 These ads will presumably reveal data he has "uncovered" via his work with DOGE--although if past behavior is any indication, there will be no verifiable evidence to corroborate it.

100

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

2/10 There are rumors--and to this point, they are only rumors--that Elon Musk will be spending $40 million dollars on Super Bowl ads talking about government waste.

Ravi Kamble @ravikamble.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

1/10 For the record, I am 100% against waste, fraud and abuse. So already, you and I agree. However, to get there, we need transparency. And to get transparency, there can be no conflicts of interest.

This is genuinely an important article. The two main lessons from Hungary appear to be: DO NOT WAIT DO NOT UNDERREACT Authoritarians like Orban and Trump rely on opposition being unwilling to believe that what is happening is actually happening. That’s their window. www.vox.com/politics/398...
