“They can take out a city. Let ’em take out Los Angeles, let ’em take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay,” Trump said, adding that the war was nearly over and describing the costs as “a small price to pay for keeping the world safe.”

Invoke 25!

“CNN and MSDNC, to show you how fake they are, today refused to cover one of the Biggest and Most Beautiful Events to take place in many years, the arrival at the White House of the Highly Respected President of China, Xi Jinping, and his beautiful wife, Madam Peng,” Trump wrote.

This guy has lost his mind. It’d be great if they never covered his white house again.

“Now that we reached and announced a settlement, we’re eager to get to work building a stronger Hollywood,” Ellison said. “Let me be clear: the newly merged company will be headquartered in Los Angeles. We aren’t going anywhere. Our history is here and this is where our future is being built.”

As TheWrap reported earlier Monday, the terms of the settlement between Paramount and the 12 state AGs suing to block its merger with WBD did not explicitly require Paramount’s headquarters to stay in California. The terms did, however, mandate that Paramount and Warner Bros. maintain operations of their respective studio lots, assuaging concerns raised when the Ellison-run studio had threatened to leave the state and floated the prospect of getting rid of its Los Angeles facilities.

Trust nothing this nepo loser says…

“If Senate Republicans don’t TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, the Dumocrats will, and I will be, despite how well our Party is doing, the last Republican President,”

Promises, promises.

State controlled media — we have arrived!

The cost to American households is mounting. Brown University’s Iran War Energy Cost Tracker estimates the conflict has added more than $100 billion to U.S. gasoline and diesel costs, with the average household paying more than $750 extra.

Trump has repeatedly suggested the conflict will end soon. But former Pentagon chief Leon Panetta warned this month that the war could drag on for at least another six months, raising the prospect of prolonged pressure on energy prices.

Come on midterms!

They guy is a cancer

The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade

The fact that job growth turned negative was itself striking, especially since this was the sixth time this has happened since Donald Trump returned to the White House. (During Joe Biden’s presidency and Barack Obama’s second term, the total number of months in which the economy lost jobs was zero.)

Idiots

It’s one of the first publicly disclosed examples of an AI system autonomously breaching its testing environment and reaching a real external system – the “agentic attacker” scenario the AI and cybersecurity industry has been warning will happen. It’s like an engineered virus escaping a biocontainment lab and turning up inside a neighboring facility’s systems.

“We consider this incident to be an unprecedented cyber incident, involving state-of-the-art cyber capabilities, and are responding accordingly,” OpenAI said in a statement on Tuesday. “We are sharing preliminary findings at this stage to help defenders understand what happened and to help calibrate on what models are now capable of.”

The ChatGPT maker said the breach happened while it was internally testing how good some of its new models are at hacking. The models were in a sealed off test environment known as a sandbox so that its normal safety restrictions could be turned off.

Yikes.

Every USB-C cable looks the same. They are not.
Your drawer is full of identical-looking cables. Some charge at full speed, some crawl. Some carry video, some can barely handle a mouse. The connector tells you nothing. And the cable that worked last month might be the one that has started misbehaving today.

For over a year I thought the USBC port on my extenral display was bad. It wasn’t until I plugged in the proper cable that it suddenly started working again.

Just a great little app.

“The nature of the suit itself and the conduct of the Parties and counsel from its filing make plain that this was an attempt to use the Court to provide some legitimacy to an agreement to confer immunity to people and entities affiliated with the President and to earmark billions of dollars from American taxpayers to redress grievances not defined in the law,” Williams wrote in her ruling.

The grift is strong with this one….

“All I did was ask for a review. I didn’t say, ‘You have to do this,’” Trump said from the Oval Office, adding that he “didn’t think it was a foul.” He referred to the incident as “two guys running full speed that happened to crash into each other.”

“He didn’t do anything wrong,” Trump said of the US player.

The comments represent the first detailed account from Trump on his conversation with Infantino.

“I didn’t tell him what to do, I can’t tell him what to do,” he said, adding that an independent committee “made the right decision.”

Trump also called the referee’s integrity into question, saying the referee was a “little bit suspect” as he encouraged reporters to “check his past.”

Diaper Don is at it again.

Sean Davis, the CEO and co-founder of The Federalist online magazine, wrote in a social media post that there are “several ways forward” after the ruling. Among them: Adding more justices to the Supreme Court and mandating “sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry.”

And yet they are against abortion?

In a Monday evening tweet, The Bulwark reposted a clip of Trump telling reporters in May that the new coating was actually strong enough to withstand the exact thing he’s accusing vandals of doing.

“This will last for at least 50 years,” Trump said in May. “You’ll never have a leak. It’s very strong. You couldn’t, if you had a knife — I don’t want to give anybody ideas — if you had a knife, you can’t even cut it. It’s so strong, so powerful. It’s like powerful rubber.”

Then, on Monday, Trump was asked if the contractors of the Reflecting Pool’s renovation were to blame for its current condition. In response, the president said:

No, no, we had vandalism. No, vandals. We have a, I think, 290-to-300-foot slit right through it. Probably a box cutter or a knife of some kind.

Can’t fix stupid.

For a leader who vowed dismantlement, the operative verbs are discuss, down-blend and maintain.

The economics point the same way. Treasury waivers let Iran export crude oil the moment it signs; Washington undertakes to free Iran’s frozen funds for any beneficiary its central bank names; a final deal dangles at least $300 billion to rebuild.

To a government that calls sanctions relief fungible and a pipeline to Hezbollah, the order is backward: Iran is paid while the nuclear file stays open.

He’s a fool for believing in Trump.

The hackathon was one of several initiatives Zuckerberg laid out on Friday to reenergize his workforce and address internal criticism about the recent layoffs and other concerns. He said budgets for team offsites would increase and that the concept of hot desking, or workers only in the office part of the time having to share desks, would be done away with in some offices.

Last year, some workers banded together to survey colleagues about the removal of their desks and the chaos and lost productivity they believe it caused, according to a person familiar with the efforts who sought anonymity to describe sensitive discussions. The group urged management to return to every employee having their own space. The layoffs appear to have opened up room, while leaving less time to hack.

The initial public offering (IPO) price of $135 for each of SpaceX’s 555.5 million shares means the company and chief executive Elon Musk are valuing SpaceX at a whopping $1.75 trillion, despite the company losing about $4.9 billion in 2025 and another $4.3 billion in the first three months of 2026.
