It’s all a culture war. Milei is on the right team so he gets government money.

Gold and silver rally is a bit concerning. I got some decent exposure to this but it seems like a bit of an ominous signal.

Unfortunately I relapsed and spent a little time on X. It’s crazy over there. Elizabeth Holmes is posting from prison and is a Trump supporter?

How do other people prevent themselves from relapse? It’s an awful shitshow but a car wreck I have a hard time looking away from.

This is pretty funny. Tesla was going to launch “robotaxis” in the Bay Area using limousine permits. A driver would basically be using driver assist features and drive you around. Feels very 2014 Uber scrappiness. But this company is worth $1 trillion! www.reuters.com/business/aut...
Musk's robotaxi plans for San Francisco alarmed, confused regulators, emails show
Tesla CEO Elon Musk tantalized investors in July with a robotaxi update: After a small-scale test in Austin, Texas, Tesla would rapidly expand driverless cabs to markets including the San Francisco Bay Area, where it was “getting the regulatory permission to launch.”

Someone made a good point that tiktok probably already slanted it MAGA before the election as they were heavily lobbying at that time.. Biden did the tiktok ban so they went all in Trump with the algorithm. Then Trump's team tells Trump their numbers on Tiktok are amazing. And here we are.

The gold and platinum Trump visas just dropped and it’s basically an extension of the Trump tower condo brand.

People have probably said this already but it seems that Ramaswamy wasn’t actually fired from DOGE but rather saw what a shitshow Elon was and got out just in time to preserve his own brand. www.semafor.com/article/09/1...
Ramaswamy nabs Teamsters endorsement
The state Teamsters conference is the latest state union to endorse him.

He is going to get the most superficial media-friendly or profitable concessions (TikTok deal) and give up significant strategically important things that average people don’t know about. This is always the Trump foreign policy MO.

Fox host: Some polls show that people are concerned about the tariffs.

Trump: It's only because they don't understand the word tariff.

Having a US government board seat is so funny because one of the main criticisms of Bytedance, and why Tiktok should be banned, is that the Chinese government has a board seat.
