Chris Rock has used my family as punching bags for his entire career.
Yet I am supposed to feel bad for him getting slapped and humiliated on the Oscars.
After seeing a new clip of him attacking my dead uncle in the first minutes of his “Retaliation-I’m still relevant ”special, I have 3 things to say.
1. What did my family ever do to you to warrant these decades of harassment and your constant bullying disguise as jokes?
2. Just because you were bullied early on in life doesn’t give you the excuse to bully others now.
3. Thank you Will Smith.

If you work for @FoxNews and want to maintain your credibility as a journalist, now is a good time to speak out, or quit. Enough is enough.

People focus on the cost of paying employees well but not on its benefits.
For us: Our happy employees drove record sales and we now have 20,000 small business clients.
Our turnover is low and we spend $0 advertising openings since we get thousands of applicants.

Our success with a $70k min wage isn't some fluke.
A Massachusetts biotech recruiting firm raised its min wage and saw revenue and headcount grow 50%, while retention rates doubled. Profit held steady despite the $500,000 cost of raises

What helped inspire our $70k min wage?
An employee was secretly working a 2nd job at McDonald's. It was clear I was an awful CEO who was failing his employees. I gave her a raise to quit that job. No one should have to work two jobs to make ends meet.

We started our $70k min wage with about 130 employees in Seattle.
It worked so well we expanded it to a new Boise office, where the cost of living is lower but people deserve good pay all the same.
We now have about 200 employees

6 years ago today I raised my company's min wage to $70k. Fox News called me a socialist whose employees would be on bread lines.
Since then our revenue tripled, we're a Harvard Business School case study & our employees had a 10x boom in homes bought.
Always invest in people.

At the start of the pandemic, we lost 55% of our revenue overnight. Our employees were so invested they volunteered to take temporary pay cuts to prevent any layoffs.
We weathered the storm, paid everyone back and are now giving out raises

White supremacy didn't start with Donald Trump.
It didn't fly away in that helicopter yesterday either.
It's still "expel the members of Congress who voted to overturn the election & incited an insurrection." Period.

How about twice? @DonaldJTrumpJr

Sen. Cruz, you must accept responsibility for how your craven, self-serving actions contributed to the deaths of four people yesterday. And how you fundraised off this riot.
Both you and Senator Hawley must resign. If you do not, the Senate should move for your expulsion.
