He started the same way this year in ST and ended up with pretty good spring numbers.

Interesting body language analysis of #RipVanStinkle after the trial yesterday...

Actually had decent days on Thursday & Friday with 2X the normal volume - probably a dead cat bounce

Middle of the Nats order has been ass this year...

Hyundai pauses X ads over pro-Nazi content on the platform

The automaker Hyundai said it had paused its advertising on Elon Musk’s social media app, X, after a sponsored post from the company appeared next to antisemitic and pro-Nazi posts.

Hyundai confirmed the pause in a statement to NBC News late Wednesday and said it was taking its brand safety concerns to Musk’s company.

“We have paused our ads on X and are speaking to X directly about brand safety to ensure this issue is addressed,” Hyundai said in the statement.

Nancy Levine Stearns, a freelance journalist and X user, posted a screenshot Wednesday of a Hyundai ad running on an X account that often posts Holocaust denial and antisemitism. Stearns has written about brand safety on X for Hill Reporter, a progressive news site.
