🚨#BREAKING: An off-duty firefighter is being hailed as a hero after he rescued TWO CHILDREN FROM A TEXAS LAKE WITH NO PULSE...

...PERFORMED CPR ON THEM AND BROUGHT THEM BOTH BACK TO LIFE ON TOP OF THEIR CAPSIZED BOAT!!!!!

His name is Jason Horne.

He was on Alvarado Lake celebrating the 4th with his 12-year-old daughter Emilie when people started screaming and waving them down.

A boat carrying NINE people had flipped and THREE children were trapped underneath it.

Jason immediately dove in to rescue them.

Under that boat, he found a little boy, he saved him, and then dove back in.

He felt a foot, it was a little girl and Jason tore her loose and brought her back, but she did not have a pulse.

He dragged her ON TOP OF THE CAPSIZED BOAT and performed CPR until she began breathing again.

He and others then flipped the boat and found a little boy with anchor rope WRAPPED AROUND HIS BODY.

The boy also did not have a pulse, he performed CPR on the boy until he got a pulse.

Astonishingly, ALL THREE KIDS SURVIVED!!!!

Every single one went home to their families.

His department said it best: "When others needed help most, Jason did what firefighters do. He stepped up without hesitation."

A 12-year-old girl sat in that boat and watched her father dive into a lake and come back up carrying other people's children.

She will spend the rest of her life knowing EXACTLY what a hero looks like.

He looks like her dad.

GOD BLESS JASON HORNE!!!!!!!🇺🇸

Today, America wakes 250 years later as a beacon of hope, a republic entrusted to its people, an idea that changed the world.

A nation worth preserving. A dream worth pursuing. A freedom defended by every generation.

Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸

@chamath AI+Robots will be able to do everything, resulting in universal high income. Work will be optional.

[Ripple @Ripple]

We're proud to announce that Ripple USD ($RLUSD) is now officially available in Japan, following approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA): https://t.co/ChkYMQ6kxW

Through our partnership with SBI Group and @sbivc_official, $RLUSD will be accessible to both institutional and retail users via the VCTRADE platform, serving as a bridge for payments, tokenization, and collateral management.

With $1.7 billion in market cap and a 10-year relationship with SBI, this is a significant milestone in advancing regulated stablecoin adoption across Asia.

ELON MUSK:

“WE’RE GOING TO HAVE UNIVERSAL HIGH INCOME.

WE’LL BASICALLY JUST ISSUE MONEY TO PEOPLE.

WE’RE GOING TO HAVE DEFLATION.

AI AND ROBOTS ARE GOING TO MAKE SO MUCH STUFF THAT THEY’LL RUN OUT OF THINGS FOR HUMANS TO DO.

MONEY WILL STOP BEING RELEVANT AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE.”

DIAMANDIS:

“SO JUST AS YOU’RE BECOMING A MULTI-TRILLIONAIRE, MONEY STARTS TO HAVE LESS VALUE?”

ELON:

“YEAH, PRETTY MUCH.”

[Ripple @Ripple]

As AI agents begin transacting on behalf of businesses, payments need more than speed. They need trust, controls, and clear rules for how value moves.

We're helping build the infrastructure for trusted agent-driven payments, with the XRP Ledger and $RLUSD helping lay the foundation for the future of commerce.

We're pleased to be part of the ecosystem supporting @Mastercard's Agent Pay for Machines initiative, helping validate new use cases, establish common rules, and accelerate adoption.

14 years ago, we got together with an idea to build a better way to move value. What happened next was something none of us could have built alone.

And by "us," I don't just mean the three of us.

I mean the developers, validators, businesses, community members, and everyone who helped shape XRP into what it is today.

Happy Birthday, XRP!

Proud to see @Ripple return to CNBC’s Disruptor 50, ranked #16 (!!). This past year was a defining one for our industry and a real turning point for Ripple. New money is here to stay. 💸

[Ripple @Ripple]

Ripple is #16 on the 2026 @CNBC Disruptor 50, representing the role crypto infrastructure plays in bringing blockchain into real-world finance.

The infrastructure era is here. 🚀
