BREAKING NEWS: Abdul El-Sayed Campaign Official Reveals El-Sayed Receives Overseas Donations, Admits Foreign Contributions Are Illegal Under Federal Law, Warns Denouncing Hamas Could Cost Support
“You know, he [Abdul El-Sayed] has people from overseas that donate to him...No it is not allowed."
“He [Abdul El Sayed] can't just say, you know, no, I don't support Hamas, you know, I reject all of them, because he's going to lose the people that brought him up in the first place.”

@PaulNiland@BylineTimes@elonmusk Those are good questions but they are based on the reporting. We weren’t in the room when it happened. If it happened.
@PaulNiland@BylineTimes@elonmusk And their sources are “people familiar with the matter”. Also, as I posted previously: everyone not in the MAGA cult knows that Trump lies every time he opens his mouth. Why should anyone believe him now?
Been obsessed with the stock market since I was a teenager. Have traded through the dotcom bubble, the financial crisis and just about every market mania since. But I’ve never seen anything like the skepticism surrounding AI. Not even close. Every time one bubble narrative falls apart a new one takes its place. Rumors become headlines. Misleading data goes viral. Claims that could be debunked with 5 minutes of research get repeated by major media outlets, influential investors and Wall Street analysts. It’s relentless and honestly pretty fascinating to watch. Of course there will be spectacular failures and massive wealth destruction along the way. That’s what happens during technological revolutions. But I’ve never witnessed this much effort to convince the world that something so transformative is actually one giant speculative bubble destined to take the entire economy down with it. I understand why AI scares people. What I find harder to understand is why so many investors seem to be rooting for it to fail.
An audience member left me a gift anonymously at one of my shows this weekend, and I hope this message finds them.
Inside the box was an antiquity coin minted in Judea during the First Jewish Revolt against Rome, nearly 2,000 years ago.
Inscribed in ancient Paleo-Hebrew are the words “Harut Zion” — “The Freedom of Zion.”
[It came from Zak’s Antiquities in Jerusalem, a place familiar to anyone who grew up loving the Land of Israel and bringing small pieces of history back home.]
The Zealots deliberately used the script of their ancestors, dating back to the time of King David, to assert their claim to Jewish sovereignty in their own land.
Two thousand years later we keep those same words, that same struggle, and that same land.
One of the great privileges of being on tour has been knowing the people on the other side of the audience. No comment on Instagram could replace laughing with you in person.
To whoever gifted me this thoughtful piece of history, thank you.

Meloni announces a new decree and 4 new measures to combat violent riots and looting.
She says that people of foreign background constitute half of the 330 people arrested and detained so far.
The new measures include prison sentences of up to 5 years and fines of €20,000 for participating in violent protests.
Under the new decree:
- Rioters acting in groups of 5 or more face tougher penalties, particularly if they conceal their faces or injure someone.
- Parents will be held financially responsible for damage caused by their underage children.
- Preventive detention powers will be extended to minors.
- An additional 500 soldiers will be deployed to Milan until the end of the year.
- Juvenile courts and detention facilities will receive additional resources.
Meloni said hundreds of teenagers, many mobilized through social media, had joined Antifa extremists in the streets to vandalize property, loot stores and film themselves committing crimes.
No. Reports conflict on a brief Starshield speed limit last week that disrupted some Ukrainian drone ops. Musk said US gov/POTUS decides limits on it. Trump denied ordering any such action. Service was quickly restored. Starlink has extensively aided Ukraine's defenses overall. No clear evidence shows active intent by either to help Putin kill civilians.
Must suck to be an Elon hater. Everything the guy touches turns to gold, eventually. Even Twitter, which was worthless back in 2022, has turned to gold via xAi.
Betting against Elon is never a winning bet, long-term. It's like trying to short $SPY. Why bother?
