DOWNSIZING: I didn’t realize that “Semafor, which initially described its target audience as every college-educated English speaker around the world, had narrowed it to a group of influential opinion leaders” https://t.co/ugMPY6EVe8

.@Semafor was initially cagey about just how much money it had received from SBF and/or his brother. But it then raised $19M to buy him out https://t.co/yqPzUAViDU That was apparently out of a total of $34M raised https://t.co/m1dNKMsCma https://t.co/W3Vyx8jKe4

“Former Semafor investor” found guilty https://t.co/ZwL9X6DqIq P.S. @Semafor once reported SBF owned a “sizable chunk” of Musk’s Twitter (with SBF Musk’s “now-partner in owning Twitter”) which apparently was BS. So maybe double check that verdict. https://t.co/T2fzKXVLH0

Democratic Sen. Tester allows that it’s OK to “invest in technology and manpower” to control the border. If that’s what the “magic” deal does, you’ll know it’s a con. (Drones!) The problem with the border is Biden’s policy, not technology. https://t.co/Ah9O4zFRGG

It’s true it’s hard to imagine any “border security” provisions–even statutory changes–that will have any effect as long as Mayorkas is in charge. He’ll just set out to frustrate them. Could replacing him somehow be part of a deal? https://t.co/r6iiuZo3df
