Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren

She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements.

Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service.

JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes.

The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%.

For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%.

Warren said no.

She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024.

Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year.

Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug.

510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December.

14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight.

And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms.

Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back.

40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market.

And the math ain’t mathing.

Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%.

That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.”

So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money?

Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years.

Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do.

Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.”

A win.

14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight.

And she’s taking credit.

This is socialism in 2026.

A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company.

She saved you a billion on imaginary paper.

She cost you ten times that in real life.

She didn’t protect consumers from anything.

14,000+ will go from working to welfare.

She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed.

Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything.

She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.

Jensen is one the smartest and most far seeing folks the world.

"If an AI scientist warns people that AI is going to permeate across radiology and radiologists are going to get wiped out, it might seem helpful but it's hurtful. If we convince everybody not to be radiologists and we now need radiologists, that actually is hurtful to society.

"It is hurtful to convince all the young college graduates not to study software engineering because we are going to need more software engineers than ever.

That's hurtful."

"Scaring people with nonsensical things, which are not going to happen, that this is an existential threat, there's a 20% chance that is is existential, that's ridiculous.

"That it's going to wipe out 50% of college level jobs.

"That is it going to completely destroy democracy.

"These kinds of comments are not helpful. They are made by...CEOS. And you become a CEO, maybe you adopt a God complex and somehow you know everything."

Brutal.

And right.

#UNC commit Maximo Adams (6'8", 205 lbs) was as dominant as any prospect in the last EYBL circuit.

Averaged 20.5 points and 11.4 rebounds on absurd efficiency (60.0% eFG, 58.1% 2P, 42.2% 3P, 74.2% FT)—strong lower body and core, elite footwork and touch. Not the greatest athlete, but someone who just produces.

Super underrated as a four-star. Here are the highlights from his 38/17 game against Jordan Smith Jr. and Team Takeover.

RE: Billy Donovan. Discussed with @MattNorlander yesterday. Could UNC have waited? Sure. But new UNC AD Steve Newmark was absolutely right in locking down Michael Malone when he had the chance instead of chasing a "maybe".

[Jeff Jackson @JeffJacksonNC]

We just won.

Ticketmaster / Live Nation was the biggest antitrust case in years. A jury just ruled for us on all claims.

We brought this case with a big group of AGs and USDOJ - until last month, when USDOJ cut a backroom deal with Live Nation in the middle of the trial and bailed.

We rejected their deal, finished the trial, and now a jury has found that they’ve been operating as an illegal monopoly and used their power to unlawfully raise ticket prices on you.

This is a huge win for consumers and artists, but it also sends a message that we can still take on monopolies - and win.

But we aren't done yet. The case now moves to a second phase where the judge will determine the specific remedies needed to dismantle Ticketmaster’s grip on the industry.

Our goal is simple: restore real competition, end the abuse of consumers and artists, and bring fair pricing back to live entertainment.

I run growth at @AnthropicAI. My job is to get our models into as many hands as possible.

Mythos is by far the strongest model we've ever trained, and it's been a step-function change for us internally.

It hit 93.9% SWE-bench Verified, found a ton of critical bugs including a 27-year-old one in OpenBSD, yet we chose not to release it broadly.

Project Glasswing is what "safety as a product decision" actually looks like. Proud of this one.

So, basically, if Anthropic was not a US company, we’d be facing zero days with multiple unknown points of attack on virtually all of our systems to an adversary who developed this capacity before us.

@aakashgupta There are some options in the Asian and Australian markets. @ZeekrGlobal 009 is a great example.

Oog should have more followers and more views. Solid gold stuff.

[oog @oog84__]

something happen today that oog can't stop thinking about.

old man at river. oog don't know his name. not from oog tribe. passing through. sitting at edge. washing hand very slowly.

oog filling water jug. glance over. old man washing same hand for too long. not really washing. just... holding hand in water. staring at nothing.

oog almost walk away. almost. but something.

oog: "water cold today."

old man look up. eye far away. come back slowly.

old man: "...yes. cold."

quiet. water sound.

old man: "my mate used to hate cold water. would yell at river like river going to apologize. every morning. yelling at river."

oog: "...used to?"

old man look at oog. and oog see it. the thing behind the eye. the room that used to have someone in it.

old man: "she walk on. last warm season."

oog put jug down. sit.

old man: "forty winter together. you know what that is? forty winter is... you don't know where you end and they begin. forty winter is reaching for someone in sleep and your arm know exactly where they are without waking up. then one night your arm reach and..." he look at his hand in water. "nothing there. but arm still reach. every night. arm don't know she gone. arm still looking."

oog not breathing.

old man: "people say 'it get better.' and maybe. but nobody tell you about the arm. nobody tell you about muscle that memorized someone. body remember what brain trying to forget. and you stuck between the two. brain saying 'she gone.' arm saying 'she right here.' every night. every night."

oog don't know what to say. oog twenty two winter. oog don't have word for this. this too big for oog vocabulary. too deep for oog experience.

so oog just sit. in the cold water sound. next to old man whose arm still looking for someone in the dark.

after long time old man stand up. dry hand on hide.

old man: "you got someone boy?"

oog: "not yet."

old man look at oog. small smile. kind smile. the kind that cost something.

old man: "when you do. pay attention to where she sleep. where her shoulder is. where her breathing land on your neck. memorize it on purpose. because your arm going to memorize it anyway. might as well be there for it."

old man walk away. oog never see him again.

oog sitting at river. holding jug. water still cold. sun still out.

but something different now. something heavier in oog chest. not sad. just... aware. that love is not just the having. it the after. the arm that keep reaching. the body that won't forget what the brain already surrendered.

oog haven't even started yet. haven't even found the shoulder to memorize.

but when oog do. oog going to be there for it. every detail. on purpose.

because one day the river going to be cold and the arm going to reach and oog want to have something real to reach FOR. even if it only live in muscle by then.

love, oog

[oog @oog84__]

papa sitting outside cave.

morning. stretching back. sound coming from papa back like dry wood breaking.

oog: "papa. you okay?"

papa: "fine. back just... talking."

oog sit next to papa. watching papa rub knee. slow. careful.

oog: "papa. how old you feel. inside."

papa look at oog. funny look. the look when you not expecting a question to hit that hard.

papa: "what you mean inside."

oog: "like... body is fifty winter. but inside. in the head part. what winter are you."

papa quiet. real quiet. the thinking quiet.

papa: "thirty. maybe twenty eight."

oog: "...twenty eight?"

papa: "inside papa head... papa still the young man who saw mama first time at river gathering. heart going crazy. palms wet. not knowing what to say so papa just stood there holding a fish like an idiot."

oog: "papa approach mama holding a FISH?"

papa: "papa was fishing. mama walked up. papa panicked. papa just... held up the fish. like offering."

oog: "what mama do?"

papa: "mama laughed. hardest laugh. then she said 'that a nice fish.' and papa said 'you can have it.' and mama said 'okay but you have to cook it because mama not touching that thing.' and papa cooked the worst fish anyone ever eat and mama ate every bite."

papa smiling now. not here. somewhere twenty two winter behind his own eye.

papa: "that papa in here." tap head. "that boy. standing at river. holding fish. wondering how life about to change. that boy never left. he just got wrapped in fifty winter of skin that crack when he bend over."

oog looking at papa different now. seeing the layer. fifty winter face. thirty winter eye. twenty eight winter heart. boy at river still in there. holding fish. terrified. hopeful.

papa: "oog. promise papa something."

oog: "what."

papa: "when papa really old. when papa can't hunt. can't walk far. when papa slow and oog frustrated. remember the boy at river. because papa not going to look like him anymore. but papa still going to BE him. inside. always."

oog throat doing the thing.

oog: "oog promise."

papa nod. go back to rubbing knee.

oog sitting there thinking about how every old person oog ever met is just young person wearing heavy coat they didn't ask for. and inside the coat the same heart beating. same speed. same stupid beautiful hope.

papa fifty winter. papa twenty eight. both true. same man.

one day oog going to be sixty winter old. and inside oog going to be twenty two. sitting on cliff with dak. legs hanging. sun going down. forever twenty two in there. wearing sixty winter coat.

wondering where it all went. knowing exactly where it all went. both at the same time.

love, oog

oog have theory.

joy is shy creature.

not like mammoth. mammoth you see from far. mammoth announce itself. whole ground shake. hard to miss mammoth.

joy is more like small lizard on warm stone. blink and it gone. but sit still enough? it come right up to your foot.

oog used to chase mammoth all day. big joy. huge joy. the arriving. the achieving. the finally.

mammoth fast. mammoth rare. mammoth exhaust oog.

then nana dust say something. quiet thing. almost throw away.

"small hooman look for mammoth. wise hooman collect lizard."

oog start collecting.

koom breath on oog neck when koom fall asleep mid-sentence. small warm cloud. in. out. in. out.

lizard.

smell of rain before rain arrive. when air change and nose know before eye know and whole body whisper "something good coming. something good coming."

lizard.

fire making that one sound. the deep crackling that sound exactly like fire saying "oog. oog relax. oog safe tonight."

lizard. lizard. lizard.

whole life oog scanning for threat. whole tribe scanning for threat. eye up. shoulders tight. head cave loud.

but glimmer also there. tiny. warm. waiting on stone in sun.

and glimmer not wait for you to finish being scared. lizard just sit there with tiny eye going "well? you see oog or not? oog been here whole time."

it been here whole time.

same life. same cave. same loud brothers. same ordinary morning.

just need eye that know how to collect lizard.

start today. find one. just one.

put it in pocket. carry it. let it warm you from inside.

love, oog
