This 1 hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years.

Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.

OpenAI just published their official prompting guide for GPT-5.

Master these 6 critical prompting techniques:

[Bloomberg @business]

Elizabeth Simons, daughter of late hedge fund billionaire James Simons, has given $250,000 to a super PAC supporting New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani https://t.co/dhbDrQ1d4L

[Patrick S. Tomlinson @stealthygeek]

If Musk wanted to start a new centrist party to attract disaffected Republicans to kneecap Trump, he'd recruite people like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.

Instead, he followed Andrew Yang because his plan is to split Democrats so Trump can retain the House and Senate next year.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

🚨BREAKING: House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has thrown down the gauntlet against Speaker Mike Johnson, challenging him to defend Trump's cruel budget cuts of Medicaid, food assistance, and veterans' benefits in a one-on-one debate.

If Johnson accepts, the debate (known as a colloquy) would be on the House floor Wednesday, April 9 and would fully expose Johnson's inability to defend Trump's cuts in front of the American people.

Drop a 💙 if you'd like to see this debate.

Tesla intentionally gave drivers rosy driving range projections, leaving many stranded. BUT you should totally bank with X.

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

Every Republican in Congress must be asked if they agree with Trump’s decision to freeze ALL federal funds.

Congress has a constitutional obligation to be a check and balance on the President.

Republicans control Congress.

Are they loyal to Trump or the constitution?

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

They can't spin this away. The Trump administration contacted air traffic controllers, offering buyouts to leave their jobs. It's a very easily proven fact.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

Prediction: This is a secular trend. The pendulum will never swing back.

If you watch one thing today, it should be this video of Tim Kaine utterly decimating Pete Hegseth.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Tonight, the Senate finally corrects a fifty-year mistake by passing the Social Security Fairness Act.

Millions of retired teachers and firefighters and letter carriers and state and local workers have waited decades for this moment.

No longer will public retirees see their hard-earned Social Security benefits robbed from them, thanks to this bill.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The White House announced today that the infrastructure bills passed during the Biden administration have spurred over $1 trillion in private sector investments.

If Trump tries to repeal these laws, the consequences would be costly.

@ianbremmer Biden has been extremely efficient in internal politics with a series of legislative accomplishments that has improved employment and the life of citizens
US economy is running hot (‘the envy of the world’) and it is frankly incredible that American citizens don’t recognize this

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

like most elections around the world this year (uk, japan, france, germany, india, south africa, etc etc) the us election is a “change” election.

most americans—over 70%—are unhappy with where the country is going.

with any other gop candidate this would be a clear victory. but trump’s unpopularity and unfitness as a candidate are so high that it’s a tossup.

if you’re confident in the outcome you’re fooling yourself.

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

It's published.

We ran 80,000 simulations tonight.

Harris won in 40,012.

Thanks Jeff Lawson for buying the Onion so we could get this great zoom in on electoral coverage. No other news source has gone to this level of detail.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: Nevada’s leading pollster Jon Ralston just predicted Kamala Harris will win Nevada. This is huge.

[Maria Shriver @mariashriver]

I find it interesting that so many are surprised Independent women are breaking for Harris, or that Boomer women are lining up for her. Independent means we have our own minds. Boomer means we have been through it. We have fought like hell in so many arenas—for sure we are not going back. We’ve always been surprising, get ready for our biggest suprise yet! 🙌

@mmckinnon We are not going back.
