NEW: President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama gave their first joint interview nearly a decade after leaving the White House.
Thankful every day for the Obama era that brought dignity, hope, and true leadership to the White House.
Class, grace, intelligence, and role models our kids could look up to.
🔥 President Obama has mastered the art of criticizing Donald Trump without ever saying his name—and it never fails to get people talking.
He appeared to do it again, this time on a stage alongside every living U.S. president.
The subtle jab, the timing, and the reaction? You decide. 👀
Watch this. ⬇️
🚨 WOW: Michelle Obama reportedly responded to Trump by acknowledging his accomplishments—including what some supporters believe could one day merit a Nobel Peace Prize.
Chris Giancarlo raised a point that deserves far more attention:
Many people are concerned about the privacy risks of a future CBDC, yet most stablecoins already operate with little to no real privacy. 👀
The focus remains on preventing a system that hasn’t been implemented, while existing digital payment networks continue to raise important questions about transparency, data access, and user privacy.
The real conversation shouldn’t be limited to CBDCs—it should include the privacy implications of today’s stablecoin ecosystem as well.
Fair question. It’s already moving beyond theory. Developers are experimenting with AI agents on XRPL for automated payments, tokenization, and machine-to-machine transactions. As AI agents start handling value transfer autonomously, they’ll need a network that’s fast, low-cost, and scalable exactly the kind of use case XRPL was designed for. The next few years will show whether it becomes a major AI settlement layer, but the building has already begun.
AI will accelerate adoption of the ripple:native Ledger.
Ripple knows it.
Brad Garlinghouse knows it.
And the community knows it.
AI agents have the potential to become a major catalyst for the XRPL ecosystem, driving automation, efficiency, and real-world utility at scale.
I believe this convergence of AI and blockchain could unlock the next phase of growth for $XRP and the broader crypto market.
Bullish on AI. Bullish on crypto. 🚀
Jessica: “If you want to run a Senate campaign based on ‘he might be vegan, maybe a little gay, and dating an attractive Latina woman,’ be my guest.”
Watters: “She’s Latina?” starts taking notes
🇺🇸🇮🇱 JUST IN: Vice President JD Vance delivers a sharp message to Israel:
“If I were in the Israeli government, I wouldn’t be attacking the only major ally still standing firmly beside you.”
He also emphasized America’s role in Israel’s defense, noting that a significant portion of the defensive systems protecting the country were built by American industry and funded by U.S. taxpayers.
The remarks highlight growing tensions and underscore the importance of the U.S.-Israel relationship.
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump has reportedly suspended funding tied to South Africa’s AIDS programs amid escalating tensions over the country’s handling of violence and property rights concerns.
Critics argue that U.S. taxpayer dollars should not support governments accused of failing to adequately protect all of their citizens.
@elonmusk has been among the most outspoken voices raising concerns about violence against farmers in South Africa.
The debate is intensifying, and international pressure continues to grow. 👀
🚨🇺🇸 BRAD WAS RIGHT 🇺🇸🚨
Years ago, Brad Garlinghouse pointed out that bitcoin:native wasn’t built to handle global payments at scale and would ultimately become a store of value—digital gold.
Today, ripple:native is positioning itself to bridge that gap, enabling faster and more efficient cross-border value transfer.
The shift is already underway, and it’s happening faster than many people realize.

Trump: “The terms Iran leaked to the fake news media have absolutely nothing to do with the terms that were agreed to in writing. Their claims, including their weak and pathetic statement about having a deal, bear no resemblance to the truth.”
🚨 Billionaire investor Tim Draper remains extremely bullish on Bitcoin.
He predicts Bitcoin could reach $250,000, then $1 million, and eventually $10 million as it continues to gain ground against traditional fiat currencies.
“Bitcoin against the dollar is a really good bet.”

Months of promises. Still no finalized deal. 👀
