Momentum continues all across America
Today, Jash and Neil Mehta are giving every child in San Francisco born between 2016-2024 a stake in America’s future.
Each child in Neil’s hometown now has an investment account and a stake in the companies that made the Bay Area the center of American innovation.

When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it. When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. When everyone tells you to think of yourselves first, do not be afraid to put yourselves in the last place. Be willing to give up time, money, comfort and plans to serve others. May those who see you find themselves asking: “Why do they live in this way? Where do they get this freedom? Why do they love one another so much?” #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

If you have a child in America, a 530A account is in their name. We've already funded 25 million of them. Millions more have been funded by the government, and others are adding gifts all the time.
Invest America just launched a free, self-paced Parent Financial Education Center with Everfi. Covers 530A Trump Accounts, long-term investing, compounding, budgeting, and how to actually talk to your kids about money.
20 minutes of your time beats 20 years of guessing or worse, not knowing.

The documentary follows a drive-thru worker on her final day of work after 34 years. While she expects a quiet farewell, her town has other plans.
Releasing November 24 on Netflix.

Thank you @Gwynne_Shotwell and Robert for your extraordinary generosity! 🚀🇺🇸
And for the thoughtful approach you took to reach more than 2 million children.
Your gifts will expand opportunity, inspire dreams, and help strengthen America for generations to come! 🙏
Robert and I are thrilled that our gift of over 2 million shares of SpaceX stock will be distributed to children’s Trump accounts in December!
Our initial gift (shares transferring to escrow as we speak) will go to 11 to 17-year-olds who live in zip codes with median family income (MFI) of $57,000 or less, and to those who live in zip codes with too few residents for an MFI to be reported in the census. These families should receive a notice by Monday.
In a few weeks, an additional gift will be finalized for eligible 11 to 17-year-old children in military families serving overseas, children in foster care, and more children whose MFI is $90,000 or less living in counties near our home in the great state of Texas.
Thank you to the incredible team @SpaceX, @Treasury, @IRS, @DellFdn, @GreaterHorizons, @InvestAmerica24, and the legal firms of Morgan Lewis and Gibson Dunn for working over the past few months to make this happen.
We are deeply grateful for the groundbreaking work that Brad Gerstner @altcap and @MichaelDell have done for the long-term financial security for millions of kids.
God Bless America!

🇺🇸 “I’ve never met a greater patriot.” Jensen Huang thanked @altcap for making Trump Accounts into a reality:
"Somebody who cares so much about the industry, but even more so the country.
Your gift and your enthusiasm, and just tireless energy in coordinating, pulling together a lot of people in order to do something great like what you did.
Incredible."
— @JensenHuang, CEO of @nvidia , with Brad Gerstner on the @BG2Pod
Incredible leadership across the board from @frankjbisignano doing the hard work behind the scenes to bring 70M+ accounts online and now personally supporting kids in his hometown.
Every great business leader uses their own products. Incredible generosity by @frankjbisignano to donate directly to the children of his Brooklyn hometown.
The movement to help the next generation grows stronger everyday! 🇺🇸🫡

Let me summarize: EVERY child under 18 direct owners in our best companies compounding for life. Real ownership not dependency. A new American birthright forevermore of $1000 in a free, lifetime investment acct. That’s it.
Keep donating to charities. Keep paying taxes. Keep our sacred promise to social security. But only real ownership can unlock the full human potential of all families & close the wealth gap.
Yes this will be a huge new employer benefits for 1000s of companies giving to kids of employees. Yes moms & dads & friends are already depositing 100s of millions small dollars at a time. Yes philanthropists love the idea of direct giving to America’s kids - full transparency, accountability, & high ROI.
As Geoffrey Canada said to me last week - in 50 yrs of fighting poverty, kids are still poor. This is the FIRST thing I have ever seen that will change that forever.
This has huge bi-partisan support. But kids are not Rs or Ds. They just want to live the American Dream. Invest America / 530A @TrumpAccounts will help them do just that! Claim your kids open & funded account today. 🇺🇸🤍🚀

🚨 NEW: Kaylub Giamanco, the HERO father who TOOK OUT the Bend, Oregon elementary school shooter last week, tells the story for the first time
"I started hearing children PLEADING for their lives. And then I started hearing gunfire and I just started army crawling faster and faster. And I told myself, this is probably the last thing that I'm ever going to do."
"I have to go in. People are going to die."
"I crawled through the bottom window that was shot out and continued onto the rug inside where there's a little breezeway with stairs."
"And then the special needs classroom was to my left. At that point, I was on the ground on my hands and knees. I re-racked my weapon to make sure that a live round came so that I knew that I was ready to go."
"And then I peeked through the window. And at this point I found my opportunity. And I'd seen a teacher on the left struggling with the gunman on the right with the rifle."
"And I knew that they were on both sides of me, and I knew that he did not know that I was there. And so at that point I swung the door out and open and I stepped in and I fired."
This man deserves the Presidential Medal of FREEDOM! 🇺🇸

All newborn Social Security cards will now include a notification that their child has a Trump Account and the steps parents can take to claim their $1,000 grant for their child.

Brad Gerstner, architect of Trump Accounts:
70% of families in America don't have an investment account — they do not have skin in the upside of America...
This is going to be solved in one of two ways: you're either going to get bigger government programs, more fighting for UBI, more redistribution...
Or we can harness the power of free enterprise and capitalism...
We can allow them to see firsthand the power of compounding growth.

Congrats @joel_kaplan on the great run. Even when making tough calls that hit me hard, you always operated with integrity.
Sitting directly in the line of fire behind longtime friend Justice Kavanaugh at his confirmation was an all time display of loyalty in DC. Hoping you find your way back to public service.
Sharing some news here on the professional front for me. After more than 15 years at Meta, I’ve decided the time is right for me to move on from my role as Chief Global Affairs Officer. It’s been an extraordinary journey and opportunity, and I’m very proud of the team we built and work we did. I will always be grateful to @finkd and @sherylsandberg for bringing me in all those years ago and supporting me and my work all along the way. It has been a true privilege to work with Mark – one of the great founders, builders, and strategic CEOs in history – as well as his leadership team, and the incredible Global Affairs team we’ve assembled over the years.
I’ll be at the company for a few months to help with the transition, and then look forward to catching my breath, making up for lost time with my beautiful wife, catching all of my daughter’s high school tennis matches, and surprising my son with frequent unannounced visits at college. Somewhere in there will also find some time to figure out what I want to do next–will let you know when I do!

Donations to Trump Accounts are awesome b/c it is easy.
have a super streamlined default makes ppl more likely to be charitable.
right now, crazy as it sounds, if you want to give away $1-10 billion...it's a lot of work! create a foundation, hire staff, pick objectives...etc etc.
lots of folks don't get around to it.
if you create an easy, culturally accepted default...the world will become more charitable than it ever has been.

The most powerful thing we can give the next generation is ownership in the future.
Giving every child a stake in innovation and technology with @TrumpAccounts can help make the American dream more tangible for millions of families. Long-term thinking starts early.
