A remarkable video:
Putin, an obscure 1991 Leningrad bureaucrat, warning against the return of totalitarian rule to Russia—paired with his reaction to those words as President in 2002. The irony writes itself.
Ep. 584: An Ancient Rivalry Returns: Tensions between Church and State - @lestermunson + @nottvjessjones + @washingtonflack examine the tensions between President Trump and newly elected Pope Leo XIV after the pontiff made remarks about the war in Iran that drew a sharp public rebuke from the President and Vice President.

Nvidia’s H200s are far better than what China can produce domestically, both in capability and scale. China will use these highly advanced chips to strengthen its military capabilities and totalitarian surveillance.
@nvidia should be under no illusions – China will rip off its technology, mass produce it themselves and seek to end Nvidia as a competitor. That is China’s playbook and it is using it in every critical industry.

"During the height of the Cold War, it was unthinkable for the U.S. to sell supercomputers to the Soviet Union, the equivalent of the GPUs today. We’ve never won technological competitions by arming our competitors"

If you believe that:
1. AI is this century’s most transformative technology
2. That like similar historic tech (eg electricity) it will revolutionize warfare
3. That the PLA is a major threat to the US military
You should oppose exporting AI chips to China.
It’s that simple!
White House officials are urging members of Congress to oppose a measure that would limit Nvidia’s ability to sell AI chips to China and other adversary nations, sources say https://t.co/fHFY6jgxRo
Awesome call to action by @DAlperovitch at #CYBERWARCON. Super compelling. I'm on board. Would be incredibly positive for the community and defense of the nation if we simplified how we describe bad actors, and this approach is the best I have seen on how to do it.
China has not exported rare earth compounds or metals in tariff lines fully covered by export controls to the United States since April 2025. While attention has focused on magnets, compounds and metals are also critical for U.S. industries. See Silverado’s new infographic 👇
Bannon BLASTS Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: He Should Never Be Allowed In The Whitehouse Again. He Should Be Under Arrest. He Is An Agent Of Influence For The CCP.
Hopefully Nvidia is learning that relying on Chinese market and being “China First” is a recipe for disaster. Every Western company has learned that the hard way over the past 2 decades. Without exception.
Focus on American market instead Jensen! Help our AI beat China’s!
China will never let you dominate their market, Nvidia. It's not too late to turn back from China-first to an America-first policy!
Focus on serving this huge market and stop enabling our adversaries to build weapons that might one day kill Americans!

1/ Fascinating drama playing out over the past 24 hours as the very good GAIN AI Act from @SenatorBanks comes under fire from @nvidia, which seems happy to shred its credibility for the sake of getting more AI chips into China. 🧵
