Politicized proxy voting is a problem, but even worse is politicized “shareholder engagement”: large asset managers like BlackRock telling companies behind closed doors to implement one-sided social agendas. The investing public deserves more transparency on these “engagements.” — PolitiTweet.org

I sent shareholder letters to the boards of Apple & Disney yesterday. Here’s how the game works: CEOs are pressured by social activists to adopt business-harmful political positions. But then they justify them after-the-fact by claiming it was about “the long run.” It’s a farce. — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow: announcing some news on @SquawkCNBC at 7am. Thursday: fireside chat at MarketWatch Money Fest in NYC. Interested to hear from Icahn, Dalio, others. Different perspectives. Friday: headed to LA for day trip to join Bill Maher’s show. Last time was fun, should be again. — PolitiTweet.org

Hiring should be based on merit. Not race, sex, or politics. More to say on that this week. Buckle up, corporate America. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s shocking that everyday folks who *think* they own publicly traded shares of Chinese companies like Alibaba do NOT actually own shares of Alibaba. Instead, they own an offshore shell company via a structure that is *literally illegal* under Chinese law. Stranger than fiction. — PolitiTweet.org

@fly_vxy I agree that fighting back isn’t victimhood. Whining is, though. And I hope we can still salvage one America. That’s the thing I’m fighting for, anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a transpartisan, transnational battle that I predict will come to a head globally in the next couple of years. — PolitiTweet.org

The rise of the ‘stakeholder’ portends the death of the citizen. The defining political battle of our time: the stakeholders vs. the people. The Great Reset vs. The Great Uprising. — PolitiTweet.org

@Toney07876651 Yeah I hear you. But at some point, we just need to stop whining and get the job done. — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s finally have the ESG debate on the merits. @TheEconomist solicited a piece from me to offer the opposing view last week which I appreciated. Let’s see if @nytimes wants a diversity of opinions as well. The piece below screams for a response. https://t.co/rC9pYV4IvK — PolitiTweet.org

This was *exactly* the argument against Title IX in 1990s: “there’s no need for women’s sports if they can’t compete with men.” Back then, this was viewed as misogynistic. Today, it’s viewed as progressive. How things have changed. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

@SofaKingTrollin Yeah I know, but it’s getting kind of old for comedians to spend a half hour navel-gazing about it. Move on and do the thing, instead of complaining about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

I say this as a standup comedy fan and a failed comic myself. Watched a bunch of top comics come through town this year. Loved ‘em, but wish they weren’t so thin-skinned. If you’re complaining to an audience of 10k+ people about getting cancelled, it means you’re not cancelled. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

I say this as a standup comedy fan and a failed standup comic myself. Watched Chris Rock, Chappelle, Hassan Minhaj, Rogan, Tracy Morgan, and a bunch of others who’ve come through Columbus in recent months. Don’t be so thin-skinned about the reactions of your thin-skinned critics. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

I’m getting tired of standup comics whining about how hard it is to be a comic. The trendy thing right now is for them to complain on stage about being “cancelled.” I really don’t like cancel culture, but I’m sorry…getting criticized on Twitter doesn’t count as “being canceled” — PolitiTweet.org

@joesanders33 Read some of my more recent work and you’ll understand what I mean. It’s the misuse of other people’s money without their knowledge to forcibly implement a social agenda. It’s a fiduciary breach that departs from what free-marketeers expect of capitalism. — PolitiTweet.org
