Her hasn't thought this one through, has he?
CEOs used to always be conservative. Now they have all been brainwashed in college.
OK, Mr. Kirby. You lead the charge. Give your assets to the IRS this April. Show us the way....
Instead, you are using high $$ tax lawyers - just like all your millionaire buddies, to shield every nickel of wealth you possibly can. You hypocritical POS
Wow. I predict we will witness a walk back the likes of which would make a Michael Jackson moonwalk like amateurish
didn’t the Berlin Wall accomplish something similar?
When you see a publicly traded company CEO these days, think of AOC, and you will probably know all their positions.
Did he state this from the beach-side tree-house in which he now resides?
There is a saying to retirees that might make sense here:
Fly first class. If you don’t your kids will.
That’s a great visual.
The last conservative CEO in Silicon Valley was Paul Otellini at Intel who retired in 2015.
Even in ‘99 there were only about 10 conservative CEOs in Silicon Valley.
The greatest was Andy Grove, a hardcore anti communist from Hungary. It was a privilege to say I got the chance to work for him at Intel.
Paul was probably the 2nd best Intel CEO.
Sort of. Those with connections could bypass the wall (to my somewhat limited understanding of the history). However, the United States has no walls to keep people in, but are constructing a wall to keep people out.
United Airlines used to one of the best in the industry
They have completely adopted DEI under their CEO and it’s a disaster
Picture of ol’ Scotty at the website — he could be Jao Beidan’s twin brudder!

In 2025, Scott Kirby’s base pay was $1,200,000, he earned stock worth $22,565,800, received a cash bonus of $8,010,000, and other benefits of $506,449 (including about $270,000 in personal security) for total compensation of $32,282,253.
Lead the charge asshole. There is nothing stopping anyone from donating any amount they wish to the IRS. Of course what matters to this guy is not money going to the government but rather the gun barrels pointed at those he wants it taken from.
How about imposing this wealth tax 100% on all who publicly support it. Give them what they want and hard.
Sounds like this idiot is lobbying for his airline to fly his passengers free. And, pay those passengers for their willingness to fly on it.
