All these cross investments in the AI space… no antitrust review these days, I guess?

Also, now that they are all interconnected, imagine how quickly collapse of the AI bubble is going to spread.

Hold on. Just checking. This TikTok deal isn’t done, yet. What are the chances that it never actually gets done and it just kind continues like now?

Apparently Portland is such a war zone that the Portland Marathon and its 12,000 runners ran past the ICE facility yesterday.

Near as I can tell, flag burning isn’t an immigration violation, so ICE doesn’t even have statutory arrest powers

War ravaged Portland? Homeless problem? Sure. More than its share of eccentrics? Definitely! Good food and and coffee? Absolutely!! War ravaged? Only in his imagination.

My first reaction was that this can’t be true. Then, as I thought about it, I can see why this might be the case. Most deals live/die at a personal level amongst C-suite types. I can see how political polarization could cause a CEO to turn down an opportunity to chase a deal. Interesting.

One wonders why JD Vance bothered to convert to Catholicism. I could have told him, it wasn’t for him.

Through all of this, I haven’t seen any evidence the US military is suddenly falling short in its ability to accomplish any mission assigned to it. This is all performative nonsense. We are led by dunces and morons.

YouTube to pay $22 million for White House ballroom to settle lawsuit from Trump YouTube will pay almost $25 million to settle a lawsuit brought by President Trump for suspending his account β€” most of which will support a planned White House ballroom.

So that’s how he is going to pay for the ballroom! 🍊🀑πŸŽͺ
