Live from your ESG sock drawer, it’s a Woke Data Wednesday Spectacular here at the State Street Yarn Factory.

Joined as always by our BS Correspondent Matt Moscardi, I’m that cough drop you find in your pocket that you can’t open because it’s been through the rinse cycle too many times..

In today’s nobody-loves-ESG-like-we-love-ESG-scented nuggets called November 9, 2022: a BS NEO update, a visit from Cucker Tarlson, our very own ESG Tucker, and a word from our sponsor.

Today’s episode is "Sponsored by ESGAUGE, your ESG data solution.”

Woke Data Board Sabermetrics Loose Ends. Why? Because we focus on the people. Let’s talk about some NEOs today:

1. This MUST be the next CEO of Twitter?!
2. Before I get to that… a few things you missed over the past 2 days (and I’m talking directly to the Tesla board now as your share price continues to fall)
3. Actually, let’s talk about Tesla first:
4. Tesla recalls 40,000 cars over power-steering fault
5. Tesla has issued 17 recall notices in 2022, covering 3.4 million vehicles.
6. Back to your CEO:
7. Elon Musk wistfully shared a meme on Twitter with an image of a Nazi soldier carrying messenger pigeons
8. Elon Musk tells his Twitter followers to vote for Republicans the day before the midterms, despite saying Twitter should be 'politically neutral'
9. In April, while trying to convince the world he was the singular choice to own Twitter he tweeted: “For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally”
10. On to the real story: Sriram Krishnan: The Indian-American 'helping' Elon Musk run Twitter
11. an Indian-origin software engineer and former Twitter executive who left the company last year
12. investor and partner at the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz.
13. He previously led product teams at Microsoft, Twitter, Yahoo!, Facebook, and Snap.
14. He rose to additional prominence in 2021 for leading the Good Time Show Clubhouse (now YouTube) chat show with his wife that has featured Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Virgil Abloh, as well as Steve Balmer calling from his hot tub
15. Zuck
16. Mark Zuckerberg apologized for over-investing in Meta as he announced more than 11,000 staff would be laid off: 'I got this wrong'
17. “Today I'm sharing some of the most difficult changes we've made in Meta's history. I've decided to reduce the size of our team by about 13% and let more than 11,000 of our talented employees go. I want to take accountability for these decisions and for how we got here. I know this is tough for everyone, and I'm especially sorry to those impacted.
18. “At the start of Covid, the world rapidly moved online and the surge of e-commerce led to outsized revenue growth. Many people predicted this would be a permanent acceleration that would continue even after the pandemic ended. I did too, so I made the decision to significantly increase our investments. Unfortunately, this did not play out the way I expected. I got this wrong, and I take responsibility for that.”
19. And finally, the anti-woke executive hero of the week: Tyson Foods CFO John Tyson was arrested in Arkansas after allegedly becoming intoxicated and falling asleep in the bed of a woman who didn't know him
20. Tyson was charged with public intoxication and criminal trespass after a woman of? "college age" who didn't know him found him asleep in her bed around 2am.
21. When police tried to wake Tyson up, he sat up but was unable to verbally respond, then tried to go back to sleep. The police report said that Tyson's breath and body had the smell of alcohol, and he was "sluggish and uncoordinated."
22. Which was also what the board said about him last month but since he is a part of the controlling family he was nonetheless appointed as CFO
23. Tyson, 32, is a fourth-generation member of the Tyson family, and was made CFO of the company in October after serving as executive vice president of strategy and chief sustainability officer.
24. His daddy, John H. Tyson, is currently the board chairman for Tyson Foods, and previously served as the company's CEO from 2000 t0 2006
25. His great-granddaddy was Tyson Foods founder John W. Tyson.
26. The company is known for tapping members of the Tyson family to lead and is largely controlled by the family.
27. And now they are known for being "sluggish and uncoordinated" and for criminal trespass and ending up in beds of “college aged” women.
28. A representative for Tyson said it was aware of the incident, but has no additional comment because it "is a personal matter."
29. Yeah, but the person is your CFO and part of the controlling family so maybe a comment would be helpful?
30. Tyson, in a memo, said the conduct was “inconsistent with my personal values, the company’s values and the high expectations we hold for each other. I made a serious mistake and this has caused me to reflect deeply on the impact my actions can have on others.”
31. So what are his values, you think? I guess peppy and coordinated. And sober. And falling asleep in beds of women of “retirement age” at 2pm.
32. Tyson is the second C-suite food executive who has been arrested in the past two months. In September, Beyond Meat suspended COO Doug Ramsey after he was arrested for 3rd-degree battery and terroristic threatening after allegedly biting "the flesh" off a man's nose during a road rage incident at a football game.
33. Ramsey, who formerly worked at Tyson Foods, was fired along with 19% of Beyond Meat's workforce in October.

CUCKER TARLSON: ARE YOU TERRIFIED YET??

11/09/22

What the woke liberals don’t want to admit to you is that all of their efforts are about keeping THEIR power at the expense of you, the American citizen.

I’m Cukcer Tarlson, and this is Are You Terrified Yet?

Right now, the climate alarmist elites are gathering at COP27 in the shadow of the repressive regime in Egypt to discuss how climate change must be stopped.

The same people who will tell you that change is GOOD if it means teaching your kids about the “right” pronouns to use want you to believe that change for the climate is somehow BAD.

Why?

Here’s a statistic for you: Is it a coincidence that COP27, the climate conference held by the leftist UN, was scheduled for the same week as the US election?

At that conference, the 27th time the UN has flown the global elites into some city to discuss how they’re going to kill American jobs, Al Gore, the godfather of the woke climate alarmists, gave a fiery speech about the need to reduce global emissions.

This is the same Al Gore who likely flew to the conference from his woke capitalist asset manager, Generation Investment Management, after his woke corporate board meeting with the Apple board of directors.?

Do you know who else sits with Al on the Apple board?

A woman named Susan Wagner.??

Wagner is the co-founder, with Larry Fink, of the woke capitalist firm BlackRock who’s currently using more than 7 trillion dollars of YOUR MONEY to push liberal ideologies on corporations.?

We know this because of data, data the liberals don’t want you to have.

Using a new non-partisan data set from Board Sabermetrics, we found connections between the woke elites to uncover just how deeply embedded they are in corporate and political powers

Take this: Reed Hastings, the founder of Netflix and massive Democratic backer, sits on the Netflix board with a woman named Anne Sweeney.

Anne Sweeney was an executive at woke poster-child Disney for more than a decade… under Bob Iger, who sits on the board of Apple with Al Gore and Larry Fink’s BFF Susan Wagner.

Liberal elite power runs deep and wide, and it’s designed to do one thing: stop YOU.

Because here’s the real truth they don’t want you to know, in my opinion: emissions SAVE jobs.

Think about it: every time liberals gather at a socialist UN conference to talk about stopping climate, what they’re stopping is American jobs.

American citizens drill the oil, refine it, and put it in the plane so they can fly to conferences.

American citizens pilot the planes to get them to their conferences on time.

And American citizens drive them in an Uber and give them free plastic bottled water on the way to discussing how to stop air pollution and plastic pollution.

Alarmist climate change activist liberal hypocrites aren’t trying to stop climate change - they’re the biggest reason for it!

Here’s a headline from just today: Billionaires emit a million times more greenhouse gases than the average person: Oxfam

No, activist liberals just want to stop YOU from having a job so that you go vote for social welfare programs and elect more liberals

So as the results of this election come in and you see more entitlement programs that limit the choice of American citizens in the name of “change”, as yourself: are you terrified yet?
