It’s a startup that began with a $200,000 investment from its founders and five years later flourished into THE ride sharing company with a $60+ billion valuation. In 2013, before it became a household name, we knew two things about this brilliant startup (and wrote about it at the time here): It would take off and…
Entrepreneur Erik Prince is controversial in many Liberal circles and revered by most Conservatives. One thing’s for certain, he’s incredibly accomplished as an entrepreneur, having built the biggest private military contracting firm in US history and now leading Frontier Services Group – a logistics company primarily operating in Africa. In a past interview, he humorously dubbed…
Emmanuel Macron, France’s version of Justin Trudeau and Barack Obama, is now President… Today, Macron became the youngest leader of the French people since Napoleon. And he beat the bold, controversial and nationalistic Marine Le Pen. Le Pen, for all her pro-nationalist/populist rhetoric, from my perspective, was hardly the far-right candidate the media made her…

Politicians shift their stance and values based on what favors them today. It’s nauseating. And the latest political sellout is the…
At another one of her low energy rallies, Hillary Clinton demonstrated her risk aversion to going off script, but this time she may have taken things a bit too far. While reading her teleprompter, which now tells her what to do from a body language standpoint, Clinton messed up. As she explained to the audience…
Hillary Clinton is as anti-gun as it gets – even more so than Obama. She has given speeches to her loyal followers that make guns out to be weapons of mass destruction. Along with her cohorts at the New York Times who write columns riddled with misinformation about what constitutes an assault rifle, semi-automatic, and…
Just when you thought the tech boom was fading, Microsoft announced today it will acquire LinkedIn for $26.2 billion… This is Microsoft’s most expensive buyout of all time. It dwarfs the company’s $8 billion Skype purchase. And even beats Facebook’s $19 billion WhatsApp buyout. [Tweet “@LinkedIn is @Microsoft ‘s most expensive acquisition of all-time”] A…
