@yunta_tsai A petition is underway to reinstate Jensen and I’m signing it too

[Naval @naval]

You’d think we’d have learned from Steve Jobs and Travis Kalanick that one does not just simply replace the founder…

[Naval @naval]

Jensen Huang is the Steve Jobs of Nvidia. He is irreplaceable .

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Jensen

Nvidia is nothing without its people.

It now appears the national security allegations may be as fake as Russiagate. If so, Nvidia employees, shareholders, partners, and customers have immense leverage.

Whether publicly or privately, collectively or individually, they can approach the members of the board that precipitously pushed for Jensen’s resignation and instead demand that anti-Jensen board members resign.

Else mass employee resignations may follow, as may shareholder, partner, and customer suits against anti-Jensen board members for breaching their fiduciary duty. Because the value of Nvidia as an economic entity — for its employees, shareholders, partners, and customers — is obviously far higher if the founder and CEO of what was the most valuable company in world history is reinstated and this coup is defeated.

Trillions in capital, the fate of open weight AI, and the global economy itself all hang in the balance. So: if you are e/acc, if you are a techno-optimist, if you support open weight models, or if you just want to rectify a gross injustice — it is legitimate for you to politely press the Nvidia board with every tool at your disposal to reinstate Jensen Huang.

Remember how much capital is at stake. For many parties, it’d be worth it to spend millions — or even billions — on any legally permissible tactic that can get anti-Jensen board members to reverse their votes and then step down.

Remember also: the kind of spineless NPC board member that would vote against Jensen Huang due to a bad news cycle would likely buckle if subject to even 1/1000 of the scrutiny that poor Jensen has been subject to.

Mechanically: step one is to do citizen journalism to determine how each board member voted. Step two is to get the anti-Jensen board members to resign. And step three is the return of the king.

OpenAI shows it can be done. There are after all just a few human beings who need to change their anti-Jensen votes, or step down, or both. Their names and duties are public. And they’re meant to be accountable to the shareholders.

This analysis by @gemchange_ltd is as good a place as any to start.

[Palmer Luckey @PalmerLuckey]

China wants Jensen out, so I want him in.

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

What a waste. Jenson made a mistake that’s between him and his wife/family. He deserves a reprimand from the board but Nvidia and America are worse off without Jenson in the CEO chair.

[The Associated Press @AP]

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns after his affair raised national security concerns. The company named Colette Kress as interim CEO.

Shares of Nvidia, one of the largest companies in the world, plunged 10% in premarket trading Thursday. https://t.co/0z66yR7ZPZ

@LibertyCappy Wrong answer. You can’t abandon your home every time an election doesn’t go your way. You also shouldn’t cede ground to those who would destroy it. If this becomes your pattern, you’ll be on the run forever. Fight for your home.

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

@ALPNational Hell yes

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

@SethDillon @ConceptualJames The mistake you’re making, is in allegiance to a party. We’re American first. The GOP deserved the L they took. Dems didn’t deserve to win either (no one in the middle likes their platform), but the GOP abandoned their voters after they were elected. Hopefully the lesson sticks.

@PBDsPodcast @grok what did Joe Rogan say about Theo Von (exactly)? And what did Joe Rogan later walk back about it? Break down the whole situation with as much accurate detail as possible

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

@DanCrenshawTX You’re missing the point… this is who your base (the largest group of Independents) are listening to. If they are saying something you disagree with, they’d love to have you on.

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

For the love of God Almighty… please Dean Spanos, sell the @chargers. Bring them back to San Diego. And rebuild from the ground up.

[Calley Means @calleymeans]

This is a formal request for Susie Wiles and James Blair to stop harassing me with texts and calls.

If there is a factual inaccuracy in what I said, send it to me in writing and I will vigorously correct and apologize for any misstatements. I will note that everything I said is substantiated by other senior officials.

If you want to file a lawsuit and get into discovery of whether it’s provably true that Ballard and Continental had an undue influence on the White House policy process, do it.

I believe we are in an existential moment for the country, and Americans were owed an honest accounting of the past two years so we identify the problems we need to move on from.

[The DarkHorse Podcast @thedarkhorsepod]

Bret Weinstein announces a plan to take over the Libertarian Party with the Mises Caucus and rebrand it as the American Liberty Party, and explains why a second party can work where a third party can't.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

The Republican congress did nothing. Achieved nothing. Took the mandate they were given and did precisely zero with it. Feckless losers who are relieved to no longer be in the majority. The only thing Republicans do with power is bide their time until they can relinquish it.

[Bret Weinstein @BretWeinstein]

This clip with @TuckerCarlson is from March. It’s hard for me not to look at the midterm results with this hypothesis in mind.

[Joseph Valenzuela @realjoeval]

@DrJStrategy This is the revolt you’re seeing because Trump didn’t actually follow through on an “America-First Agenda”. Voters don’t love the Democrat platform, they hate that they were lied to by this Administration and want to hold them accountable.

[Dave Smith @ComicDaveSmith]

Tucker Carlson, Thomas Massie, Joe Kent, Megyn Kelly and everyone else who opposed the idiotic, disastrous war of choice in Iran were right.

The people who demonized them for their principled opposition deserve to be ruled by Democrats. But the rest of us don’t.

[Not Jerome Powell @alifarhat79]

Who did this lmao
