@overton_news Saw this live this morning. What an interview!! Great discussion and framing of the topic…

[Overton @overton_news]

This is one of the most important moments ever aired on CNBC.

Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya says the media lied to millions of Americans about President Trump, and that after going back to the original source material, he realized he had been completely misled about Trump’s character.

PALIHAPITIYA: “The reality is that most of us were lied to by the media about President Trump.”

“And if you just go back to the source material, you should take away two things.”

“One, he didn’t say half the things he said, and two, why did these other people just fabricate what they wanted to say so that they could essentially assassinate his character?”

“I think that that second thing is completely unacceptable in America, and there’s still been no repercussions, really.”

“I took the time to learn about it. I admitted where…you know, the way that I met him was, I admitted on the pod, which, you know, has millions of viewers.”

“And I said, I got it totally wrong because I went and I watched Charlottesville.”

“And, you know, the first person to call me? President Trump.”

“And I got to know him and I put the phone down, I called my wife, and I said, we got it TOTALLY, totally wrong. We were lied to.”

“And then I got to know him and he is fantastic!”

A judge should’ve halted construction of this, instead of the ballroom.

[NASA @NASA]

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

@SaraEisen great interview with the Obama era Iran negotiator- you raised valid considerations that were not addressed by your guest. Keep it going. Good to have someone who is not afraid to question past actions in evaluating the current scenario. Keep it going!

@HiltonHotels CNBC (@CNBC ) just reported that one of your hotels CANCELLED reservations for DHS personnel. Really? These are US government public servants doing there job and protecting our country- the same country this hotel operates in. This needs to be corrected!!

[Kurt Williams @chkthenmbrs]

@usanewshq A. Yes.

[Kurt Williams @chkthenmbrs]

@annikakimc @CNBC Regarding your article today “Trump admin draws unproven link between autism and Tylenol…”, I find the use of the word “unproven” to be inflammatory and in the face of “journalism”. Maybe cover both views… do some research and present pros and cons.

Charlie was the best of us.

I hope I'm wrong.

But tonight feels like some sort of invisible line has been crossed that we didn't even know was there. The last time I felt like this was 9/11 when it was clear, without knowing the how and the what, that the world was about to change forever.

Like the rules of the game had been permanently altered and there was simply no going to back to the innocent, peaceful past.

I didn't feel like this when an attempt was made on President Trump's life. If I had to rationalise why I didn't, I guess it's because several US Presidents have been shot at and even assassinated. Somehow it was within the realms of the possible, no matter how awful.

But to murder a young father simply for doing debates and mobilising young people to vote for a party that represents half of America? This is something else.

Charlie's death is a tragedy for his wife, his children and his family. I don't pray often. I am praying for them tonight.

But I fear his murder will be a tragedy for all of us in ways we will only understand as time unfolds.

I hope I'm wrong.

If one immigrates to any given country, they must respect the laws and culture of that country and contribute to that country to the best of their ability, doing no harm.

That applies to ALL countries.

@cmbc @SquawkCNBC - maybe the tariff costs are being absorbed by the SELLERS; the non US suppliers. Tariffs don’t necessarily have to be absorbed by the buying party… Rick and Steve not focused on this other scenario
