🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk speaks from Starbase as SpaceX goes public, with the largest IPO EVER
"If people had told me this was going to happen [years ago], I would be like, man, you must be smoking some REALLY good crack because I think this company is going to fail!" 🤣
"I gave SpaceX less than a 10% chance of succeeding at all, to be clear. In fact, I told people this: I said, 'look, we're probably going to fail, but, you know, we should give it a try because if we don't, if if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly spacefaring civilization.'" 💯

Zlatan Ibrahimović said the US has the softest fans from in my world.
Zlatan Ibrahimović: In Europe, the fans... they're different. Because
Tom Brady: Why do they differ? Explain.
Zlatan Ibrahimović: Because for them, in, like... most of my career, I played in Italy. I played in France. I played in Spain. I played in England. I came over to the US. I think the US had the softest fans from, uh, in my world, let's say. Because I think the setup in the US is like... the regular season, you just have to reach the playoff.
🚨 WTF?! President Trump just revealed he PARDONED a man who was sentenced to SEVEN YEARS in federal prison for fixing his OWN truck or tractor
"The Democrats have a restriction that if you get caught fixing your tractor, they bring you to JAIL. Did you know that?!"
"I pardoned a man last week who was sentenced to SEVEN YEARS in jail because he got caught fixing his car or truck."
"I said, 'what did he do?' 'He was fixing his truck!'
I said, 'how long is he getting? '7 years'
I said, 'say it again!' It's the first time I've ever heard it...
I gave him a pardon because he had to go to JAIL because he was fixing HIS tractor or his truck. So I promise.. if you ever get caught fixing your tractor or truck, I will give you a pardon, OK?"
Looney democrat regulation strikes again...
What’s happening in the UK has Bill Maher realizing just how “f*cked up” the country has become.
“Every time I think this country’s too woke, I look at what’s going on in your country, and I’m like, ‘Wow, these people are really f*cked up.’”
“How did England get so leftist?”
The UK is now banning the sale of cigarettes to anyone born after 2009… EVER.
That means if it’s the year 2040, and you’re 30 years old because you were born in 2010, you still can’t buy cigarettes.
It might sound like a good thing to some, but Maher can see it’s just another wing of the nanny state deciding what you can or can’t do as an adult.
“It’s illegal to buy cigarettes. Why? I mean, don’t people get to make their own mistakes? Don’t we get to do what we want to do? I mean, you’re an adult, and you can’t have a cigarette if you want?”
Maher’s British guest suddenly got defensive when he pointed out how the United Arab Emirates paused government scholarships for students wanting to study in the UK, citing fears they could become “radicalized” over there.
“Fake news,” she said. “This idea London is a no-go zone… people walking around with the Sharia law… A lot of that’s whipped up.”
“Two Jews did get stabbed this week,” Maher fired back.
This is a two-minute exchange worth watching.
🇺🇸🇬🇧 The Trumps walked the royals out to the new White House beehive today.
You know damn well at some point he looked at the queen bee and said she is running a soft operation.
"Tremendous bees. The best really. But this queen? She's gotta be tougher"

Here's a rough summary of Elon Musk’s 1 hour and 40 minute long testimony today during the OpenAI trial. He will resume his testimony tomorrow.
• Argues the case has huge implications: "It is not ok to steal a charity. If the defendants are found not guilty, this case will become caselaw. It’ll give license to looting every charity in America. The consequences of this case go far beyond me or everyone here. The entire foundation of charitable giving in America will be destroyed."
• Says OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit, open-source counterweight to Google, focused on AI safety.
• Claims the shift to a for-profit structure violated that mission.
• Says his AI concerns date back to conversations with Larry Page, who he felt wasn’t taking AI risk seriously.
• Elon says he tried to warn Obama about AI, but that Obama felt AI was not good enough (back then) to seem scary smart. "Here we are in 2026, AI is very smart."
• Believes AI could surpass human intelligence as soon as next year and poses existential risk in the hands of the wrong people: “If you have someone who’s not very trustworthy in charge of AI, that’s very dangerous for the whole world.”
• Elon framed his companies (SpaceX, Neuralink, xAI) as part of a broader mission to protect humanity’s future.
• Emphasized OpenAI’s original goal: AI for the good of humanity, not profit-driven control.
• Elon's main argument is that OpenAI abandoned its founding principles, and that precedent could reshape both AI governance and charitable trust.
• Larry Page refused to speak to Elon Musk again after Elon recruited Ilya Sutskever to join OpenAI. Elon viewed Ilya as the “number one” most valuable member at Google.
• Elon thought in the early days, OpenAI's corporate structure would be a nonprofit funded initially with donations, but there could potentially be a parallel for-profit that is owned by the nonprofit and funds the nonprofit: “We (Sam Altman and Elon) were in agreement that OpenAI would be a 501c3 charity.
• Elon was not opposed to there being a small for-profit that provided funding to the nonprofit, as long as "the tail didn’t wag the dog."
• Elon: “there are very few people who understand venture capital in Silicon Valley like I do."
