I would like a refund for my short-term experience please.

Trump pressed oil executives to give $1 billion for his campaign, people in industry say "This is a scandal" and "an indictment of the system" — but probably legal, one legal watchdog told POLITICO.

I think this falls into the category of insane and ammoral, but not necessarily (just) stupid. Trump wants oil prices high. I think he's squeezing the oil market on purpose because it enriches his buddies - which he promised them. What enriches them, enriches him.

The bar is low and the stakes are high.

The DOW! The DOW is ..*checks notes*...

46,000 DOL-- I don't know why you're laughing!?!

Well, a couple of things have become evident:

1) He really, really, really doesn't care what happens in upcoming elections, and is no longer concerned about voter sentiment.

2) He wants the price of oil high, or they would have done something about the Strait of Hormuz from the jump.

They're drawing a big target on the White House lawn. It's effing st00pid.

Hardest working little rubber tires in the Southeast.

In a brilliant bit of 4D checkers gamesmanship, Trump kills an 86 year old tyrant along with any of the moderate figures who could have led reform in Iran, and then accelerated the accession of a hardliner 30 years younger than his predecessor.

Well, I'm feeling something golden showering down on us but it doesn't feel like winning.

But what if the President sucks at being Commander in Chief? What then?

Four Americans were killed in Benghazi and they tried to put Hillary Clinton in jail over it.

But they couldn't protect 7 soldiers serving in non-combat roles on US bases hundreds of miles from Iran.

And even though they say its not a war, their excuse is people die in wars.

Those kind of bone spurs are hereditary.

As far as I can tell, although he served in the Air Force in Iraq and Afghanistan as a JAG, Graham never saw combat.

He served for 33 YEARS through multiple conflicts. He was never once fired upon. Never once fired on someone else.

Make you wonder how his perspective might change if only...

He has fantasized about dropping a nuke for at least 10 years now. He even wanted to nuke a hurricane.

He'd nuke an American city if he felt it would give himself more power and money. So nuking Iran would be an easy decision for him. Its up to the people around him to stop him. But will they...

Ok so I never really watched pickleball before and now I'm watching one on, believe it or not, the PickleballTV channel (??).

And here's what I've learned, and no one can change my mind:

If ping-pong is table tennis, then pickleball is giant ping-pong where you stand on the table.

I have spoken.

Not yet, maybe not ever with people like Sam Altman setting the agenda.

There's this thing called "Ethical AI" that Sam Altman just took a piss on while the rest of the tech world is working hard every day to make it work.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…
