Bill Atkinson was one of the most brilliant, imaginative, and compelling people I ever had the privilege to work with. His vision touched every device you use today. And his heart, his open love and humanity, exceeded all of that.

Vance is so good: "The American Space Program, the first program to put a human being on the moon, was built by American citizens. This idea that American citizens don't have the talent to do great things, that you have to import a foreign class of servants, I just reject that."

It was centered almost exactly 100 miles from us and took 47 seconds to get here. So that means it was traveling around 7,800MPH.

Looking at the footage from my cameras from Saturday. People that live in seismically active areas will probably laugh, but if you look carefully at the plants and wreath on the right you can see when the earthquake hit. 8:05:07am

Well that was something. Didn’t feel it but I heard the house make unpleasant noises. My wife very much felt it though. She did not like. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

U.S. economy shrank 0.3% in the first quarter as Trump policy uncertainty weighed on businesses Gross domestic product was expected to rise at a 0.4% annualized pace in the first quarter, according to the Dow Jones consensus estimate.

The U.S. economy contracted in the first three months of 2025, fueling recession fears at the start of President Donald Trump’s second term in office as he wages a potentially costly trade war.

Investors are growing concerned about a U.S. asset exodus as Treasurys and the dollar decline The combined decline of U.S. stocks, bonds and the dollar could be a sign of a broader shift away from investing in America.

The big swings in the stock market are eye-popping on their own, but Wall Street pros are becoming increasingly concerned about the moves in the currency and bond markets.

Bond market plunges as global crisis brews The last thing America needed in the midst of a global trade war and a stock-market meltdown was a debt crisis too.

The price of U.S. Treasury bonds is plunging, in what Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Wednesday called "deleveraging convulsions." The effect is to raise borrowing costs just as recession fears spike.
