7. I don't have details about the family & LLCs but Trump's empire is structured as ~ 500 S Corps. Although he used LLC to pay Stormy Daniels. I think GOP is trying to counter all the criminal activities of Trump's family by a false narrative about Biden family. False comparisons… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
8 Claims about how much HB was paid are deliberate disinformation. His employer was paid for HIS TRAVEL EXPENSES when he traveled and worked in #Ukraine for days or weeks at a time.

YEAR 1 What @JoeBiden @VP @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems did for America
Here are a few highlights from each year (even with a stonewalling and recalcitrant House of Representatives the past two years):
Highlights from Year One- (1) Historic Stimulus Bill passed (2) Ended the war in Afghanistan (3) Reduction of poverty levels by 45% (4) Reduction of child poverty levels by 61% within the first 6 months (5) Passed largest infrastructure bill in history (6) The unemployment rate dropped from 6.2% when Biden and Harris took office to 3.9%, the biggest single year drop in American history. @maddow @ErinBurnett
Highlights from Year Two- (1) CHIPS Act to protect American supply of semi-conductor chips (2) $62 billion worth of health care subsidies under the ACA (Obamacare), including capping insulin at $35 (3) Legislation allowing Medicare to negotiate 100 drugs over the next decade and requires drug companies to rebate price increases higher than inflation (4) First major gun legislation in 30 years (5) Violent crime drops significantly (6) Unemployment at 50 year low
Highlights from Year Three- @KamalaHQ (1) Got Republicans to publicly take Social Security and Medicare cuts off the table (2) As of December 2023, 35 straight months of job growth (3) Created 14 million jobs since they took office - More than any other administration in history did in four years (and Biden/Harris did it in 3 years) (4) Black unemployment rate lower under Biden/Harris than any other administration in history (5) Longest stretch of unemployment below 4% since the 1960s (6) Child poverty rates fall from 12.6% to 5.8% due to the Biden/Harris Expanded Child Tax Credits, leading to 2.9 million kids escaping poverty (7) World's best post-pandemic recovery, doubles all nations except Japan
Violent crime drops significantly for the second year in a row (9) Diversity in justice: Majority of the appointed federal judges are women, racial or ethnic minorities, a first for any president ever
This should scare everyone & is why I think Polymarket - Thiel's child as well as Vance- is being used by Thiel's minions to surge phantom support for Trump via heavy Thiel funded crypto bets on a Trump win. Just to show you I'm not as nuts as MAGA @JamesCarville @BillClinton @MarkWarner washingtonspectator.org/peter-thiel-an…
2/ J. D. Vance’s selection as Trump’s running mate suggests that Vance’s benefactor, Peter Thiel, is running the show, reprising an aborted effort to run the show from 2016. He seems to have learned from his mistakes. Thiel’s main hook into the first Trump administration was Steve Bannon, and their efforts were largely stymied by Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner and other advisors; Bannon was ultimately forced out and left the administration after the deadly white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville in August 2017.
3/ In The Contrarian, a 2021 biography of Thiel, author Max Chafkin describes Vance as an “extension” of Thiel, who was a primary funder of Vance’s victorious 2022 race for Senate in Ohio. If Trump wins, Vance will be a heartbeat away from the presidency — and that should give everyone palpitations of their own. @JamesCarville @BillClinton @MarkWarner Thiel funds Polymarket as well. It is a crypto funded site to bet on (and thereby influence) world events, politics, nominally on sports. It looks like a way to influence public perception of events & politics by laying heavy bets on the outcome Thiel/Musk want. Results reported influence other bettors & public opinion. High tech influence operation transparent to Election Finance Reports.
Let me defend @LevarStoney from the @CBS6 narcissistic rock musician pretending to be a journalist, without formal training to be one, so he is just a gossip, basically, trying to sew division in this city.
MayorStoney and Fan residents most certainly DID engage in extensive conference discussions about Monument Avenue via Zoom, telephone and email. I participated in most. Additional communications were via email, as #RVA does for other projects like Richmond300, new Bike Lanes and most other City Communications. I participated in almost all. People signed up or were on the regular City email distribution list. There were no large mass meetings for there was NO requirement to do so and during the #COVID pandemic were not permitted. Such meetings are also known NOT to be the way to manage projects and solve problems, but by involving smaller groups. I both managed large projects and taught project management for decades. Small working groups solve problems. Not large undisciplined unfocused crowds. No organization operates any other way.
But how would #TylerLayne know? His experience is as a rock and roll singer. Every organization has also been doing virtual meetings. 1/ #RVA #RVAMayor @CBS6 @8NEWS @NBC12 @RTDCulture
2/ Suggestions from a VCU Art prof for an avant-garde abstract sculpture were rejected as completely unsuitable for a Victorian era residential community where there are 6 churches, a synagogue, Orchard House School for girls, a preK-1st grade day school, senior day care, and a senior residence building along 1-2 blocks. Monument Avenue IS and always has been a residential community in the Fan.
@8NEWS @NBC12OYS @RTDCulture @CBS6 #RVAMayor
3/ @LevarStoney and city staff led the email and virtual discussions and a consensus formed to take care to maintain the residential nature of the community. People work and live their lives there. A concept also emerged not to replace monuments with more monuments, but instead replace monuments of war with plants and flower gardens, symbols of peace. That idea was agreed upon because of the environmental benefits of plants and adding green space and beauty to the city, in a much more time and cost-effective way. @CBS6 @8NEWS @NBC12OYS
@VAHouseDems @DonScott757 @ssurovell @VASenateDems I know as much about the pharmaceutical industry as anyone not currently in senior management in a bio-pharma company, and for 10 years taught these business issues in a graduate course for bio/medical grad & professional students, except for determining what the #costs should be. Those costs are best determined by individuals with a PhD in a complex field, PharmacoEconomics. @vademocrats
2. I do not presume to know how to price drugs or especially medical devices, which generally are most expensive and often get special exemptions. Generally, the costs consumers pay are determined by the PBMs, #PharmacyBenefitsManagers, the Middle Men who set reimbursements for pharmacies. Most small-medium biopharma companies consider them the culprits in very high drug costs. @VAHouseDems @VASenateDems @vahousegop @VASenateGOP @vademocrats @VA_GOP
3. #BigPharma gets the bad rap on the high prices but they invest heavily in R&D to develop new drugs, but the regulatory burden is immense & costly, with 4 sets of Clinical Trials, I, II, III, IV- is when the drug is usually introduced in the market but still with very strict & careful health monitoring for side effects, all required before @US_FDA approval. (I added this detail to show why #WARPSPEED -2 years w shortcuts, caused all the fear & confusion about the #COVID19 vaccines, when unexpected events occurred, without the usual close monitoring & tracking of the standard approach.
Graphic below shows the cost and time required to get a drug to market, the length of time required before income/revenue and little time before patent expires.
These contribute to the high costs. @GovernorVA
