🚨breaking: bad news for Anthropic since Meta was said to be a big customer and is cutting its token budgets.

more generally lots of companies will make the same decision; next year’s token budgets won’t be the freewheeling affair they were earlier this spring.

honeymoon is over.

in a rational world a lot of companies would take a hit on this news.

Elon Musk held up a chainsaw, fed USAID into the wood chipper, and at least 600,00 people have already died as a result - two-thirds of them children.

History's first trillionaire.

I'm blown away by this EXCELLENT piece of @CNN reporting. This journalist @katie_polglase demonstrates how to conduct interviews with Epstein associates. She had this guy sweating, because she did her homework. Bravo. (Worth getting through the ad to watch.)...https://t.co/qbzVqDcPbs

New in @playbookdc: Air rehearsal for the UFC fight Sunday held up angry midwestern members of Congress on the runway at DCA yesterday.

The pilot informed the peeved passengers that if they wanted to register their frustration, they should call their congressperson.

Midterm elections are almost always bad for a President’s party. But how bad? Is a just-released Fox News poll in Ohio a dead canary in the coal mine? A state that Trump won by eight pts twice (2016 & 2020) and 11 points in 2024 should not look like this https://t.co/NLMDRhCMHG

Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) calls Scott Presler a “grifter”

[Charlie Cook @CharlieCookDC]

Besides Ohio, look at this new Texas poll. When a Republican President, and a Republican Vice President, a GOP Texas Governor and both Republican Senators are all underwater in favorability in an independent poll, something is going on. https://t.co/4mOzTb5R9k

@jahimes He was on CNBC spreading conspiracy theories about the California election three days ago. This is a disappointingly credulous take and almost certainly will age poorly.

Remember when Elon Musk told investors that Twitter would 5x its revenue to $28 billion by 2028 and more than 4x its users to nearly 1 billion? Well, that's no where near happening.

Instead he's made even loftier predictions for a much larger company that will go public tomm. We took a look at the skeptics' views of the SpaceX IPO.

"Donald Trump’s pledge to unleash a ‘golden age’ of US manufacturing sputters"

"Announcements are what people say they’re going to do, but dollars spent is what’s actually happening"

"[Output] isn’t reflecting the true health of the manufacturing economy, and it’s more worrying than it is encouraging"

I've lived in South Florida since I was a kid, & there's nothing normal about the breadth, depth and duration of sargassum weed choking beaches in recent years (it's also bad in Mexico)

It's an economy killer for the tourism industry

Politicians aren't talking about it enough
