It’s wild that the most unrealistic part of Terminator 2 is now the idea of a tech founder being told their creation will enslave humanity and they decide to destroy their product & company.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. 

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”

This.

Me three months ago:

SCOTUS is allowing Trump to fire (at least for now) the three Democrat-appointed members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The CPSC regulates safety of everyday consumer products.

Guess who recently sued the agency and claimed that it's unconstitutional?

Amazon.

Link it, if you want people to report it.

Tech bros don’t want to save the world. They want to own it, brand it, license it, and charge you a monthly fee to visit.

I love sassy @carlquintanilla.bsky.social

xAI updated Grok to be anti-woke and it’s started calling itself “MechaHitler.”

No better summary of the worldview of people who describe themselves as anti-woke. Even AI figured that out.

Crimes per 1M mass transit trips...

Trump is planning to blow up a $7,500 federal tax credit for EV purchases and leases, as well as wind and solar energy tax credits. Tesla has greatly benefited from both, and the unpredictable tariff war has thrown Tesla's supply chain with China into chaos.

Trump is a disaster for Tesla. #ETTD

Reminder: Its not just big media, or big law, or big universities. Big Tech is also bowing down to Trump.

In case you haven't puked yet today, here's the US DOL editorializing about today's NFP report. This is North Korea level propagandizing. 🤮

BILLIONAIRE: Lying Zohran Mamdani says that the rich have too much power. Here is the politician I have personally selected to be mayor instead.

This must go so hard if you’re stupid

Good one 🤣

There’s a real possibility that basically every major company launches a stablecoin and it becomes so annoying that people just keep using cash

Tariffs will...
Solve illegal immigration, rid us of fentanyl, secure national defense, create manufacturing jobs, generate tax revenue (to fund childcare/cut the deficit/pay for tax cuts/replace income tax), eliminate trade deficits, create leverage for trade deals and now ALLOW US TO SEND LETTERS.

You have data to back this up, “Data” Bear?

BREAKING: Judge Breyer declines to delay his preliminary injunction schedule and restraining order on the National Guard deployment in LA, so the injunction against Trump STANDS and the timeline that was issued MUST be adhered to despite any possible ruling from the 9th Circuit.

Novo Nordisk’s patent on Ozempic expired in Canada because someone forgot to pay a $450 late fee.

Looks awesome.

I'm not sure why the President Trump is boasting that he's charging Americans a 5.5 times higher tax rate than President Xi is charging the Chinese people.

US and China agree to framework deal to restore trade war truce Delegations to present plan to Donald Trump and Xi Jinping after Geneva ceasefire came under pressure

Great news everybody. The US and China have agreed to stick to the framework they negotiated a month ago, which was required because they didn’t comply with the terms of the previous deal they negotiated.
