Silicon Valley tech firms’ snug relationship with Trump deepens, bears fruit
For tech CEOs, a new political reality means the relationship with the president holds outsized importance.

POTUS has nothing on his public schedule today until phoning it in to a couple of tele-rallies in NJ & VA. At 7pm. Recovering from a long 3 day weekend in Palm Beach while 42M Americans go to work & school without SNAP benefits. USA is being destroyed by a lazy, spoiled predator.

Trump appears to suggest the US will resume testing nuclear weapons for first time in 30 years
There was no indication the U.S. would start detonating warheads, but the president offered few details about what seemed to be a significant shift in U.S. policy.

No president in modern history has done more to actively set back cancer research than Donald Trump. No president in modern history has done more to reduce the access to health care of kids (and grown ups) than Donald Trump. That's the record. The WH is offering lies.

Even if Putin supposedly ends up agreeing not to try to conquer parts of Ukraine that he hasn't been able to conquer, that's NOT a concession. It's an empty promise. Use the right words. Russia has not offered a single concession.

We’ve never been closer to finding a potential cure for cancer than we were with mRNA.

So of course, RFK Jr. cancelled all government funding for mRNA.

God fucking damn it.

But man, a huge swing given the economics right now: “Under projections shared with potential creditors a few months ago, xAI was slated to burn about $13 billion in cash in 2025, people familiar with the financials said. The startup isn’t profitable and generates a very small amount of revenue.”

Always.
Lots of Republicans are going to lose their seats over this budget - federal, state, and local.

It will not cost Trump anything, other than finally some House oversight his last 2 years maybe.

Which is how these things always go with Trump - others always pay for his sins.

There is 347 million Americans.

That’s roughly 5% of our population, 1 out of every 20 people losing their health insurance.
Senate Republicans are trying to jam through their “Big Beautiful Bill" that would kick 17 MILLION people off of their health care.

I’m on the Senate floor to say NO.
