AI INDUSTRY BOMBSHELL: All eyes are STILL on former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang after Reuters reported he misled senior executives about his relationship with a Chinese businesswoman. She was suspected by U.S. authorities of spying for Beijing.
Huang resigned Nov. 11, Nvidia has lost more than $1.8 TRILLION in market value since its October peak, and Congress is scrutinizing chip exports to China. The espionage allegations are still unproven.
Meanwhile, AI giant Anthropic is preparing for a massive IPO, reportedly targeting a $1.3 TRILLION valuation, with shares priced at $70–$78 and a potential Nov. 19 Nasdaq debut. And Nvidia is among the companies backing a planned $26 BILLION private investment tied to Anthropic’s IPO.
One AI giant is in crisis while another prepares for a historic Wall Street debut…

FLIGHTS HAVE RESUMED🚨LAX UPDATE FROM SPOKESPERSON:
“There may still be continued delays because there was a nationwide stoppage. We are encouraging passengers to check with their airline to find the most up to date information.”https://t.co/SmpKu3S6gK
The FAA has lifted the nationwide ground stop. Travelers at Los Angeles airports should check their flight status with their airlines and anticipate delays as operations resume. We will continue to work closely with federal and state partners.
TRUMP AND SCHIFF TEAM UP TO BRING BACK HOLLYWOOD?! President Donald Trump says he’s working with a bipartisan group of lawmakers, including Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff (“believe it or not”) as Trump put it, on the Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act.
The plan aims to bring film and TV production back to the U.S. through tax incentives as Hollywood continues losing productions to Canada, the UK and Australia. Trump claims the legislation could benefit hundreds of thousands of blue-collar workers and generate significant tax revenue, saying the money spent on incentives would be made back “tenfold.”
He says meetings are being arranged with leaders of both parties to finalize the legislation.
“MAKE OUR ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY GREAT AGAIN!” Trump said.
Imagine going to H Mart for groceries and running into Fall Out Boy! 🤯🎸

"It's a telecommunications outage. This is not another 9/11," Mullin said, adding, "There is no reason for the public to be afraid for your loved ones."
The FAA has halted departures nationwide following widespread air traffic control communication failures. The cause remains under investigation.
🚨🚨The FAA has ordered a rare NATIONWIDE GROUND STOP, halting departing flights at airports across the U.S., including LAX.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says widespread communication problems are affecting air traffic control centers. The FAA cited "extraordinary circumstances" and safety concerns.

The cause remains under investigation.

I am highly anticipating Judge Michael Fitzgerald's ruling on Lil Durk's request for bond. Will his team come up with a bond package that satisfies the judge? The government called the job "impossible," but Judge Fitzgerald seems time taking A LOT of time to consider the proposal. @LAmag
