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?

What are the chances that Trilogy’s team drops a large “tip” on someone in the 🍊🤡🎪 admin? According to SCOTUS that might be legal…

OMG it’s true. The USG just bought into a company with no revenue. What the heck are we doing?!

As you see the Ellisons’ use the husk of Paramount/CBS to hand out fiefdoms to conservatives, remember: This summer Paramount bribed Trump $16m at the cost of 60 Minutes’ integrity. FCC approval of the Ellisons’ takeover bid followed within a few days. Brendan Carr made this statement at the time.
Brendan Carr, Chairman, Federal Communications Commission:
President Trump is fundamentally reshaping the media landscape. And the way he's doing that is,
when he ran for election, he ran directly at these legacy broadcast media outlets, ABC, NBC, CBS.
For years, government officials just allowed those entities with execs sitting in Hollywood in New York to dictate the political narrative. And he has fundamentally changed the game. And you see that really having consequences that are just rushing all through media.

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.

Q: Has the administration asked agencies to target federal workers who they believe to be Democrats in these reductions of forces?

VANCE: We're not targeting agencies based on politics. We're targeting the people's govt so that as much as possible of essential services can continue to function
