$TSLA SVP Drew Baglino also sold shares this week.

Honestly, how convenient for them that $TSLA had this sort of run-up leading to their sales? Amazing luck. https://t.co/i84Cco7xpl pic.twitter.com/hVRt1hIf30
With JB owning no shares of $TSLA, does his economic interest as a #Tesla Board member align with the shareholders? Per @elonmusk: No.

Sulla the Dictator is remembered two thousand years later as a terrifying butcher - the first man to seize power in Rome by force. Thousands died in his bloody purges - on a whim, or so he could take their property. pic.twitter.com/200BfpVuFK
I would add: be extra nervous if the dictator-curious individual is also a big fan of Ramesses II, whose blood-soaked megalomania was a bit much even by the blood-soaked standards of Bronze Age kingshiphttps://t.co/I4DfmDtH0M

The problem for Trump right now is he is getting his legal advice from morons around him and TV lawyers on right-wing networks, so he is admitting to things because they are telling him that what he is admitting to is legal when it’s not.

The @GOP should clarify that there is no pledge to support a nominee if they are found guilty of espionage or a serious felony.

Donald Trump is the target of an ongoing criminal investigation and he should step aside & put the good of the country above his candidacy.
