Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…

You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.

And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.

Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

I'm very pro high oil prices but coupled with massive clean energy investments and moving away from the automobile economy

unfortunately we've only accomplished one of those things

β€˜If the currently private AI-ish darlingsβ€”SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Databricksβ€”were to go public at current valuations, and were added to the index, they'd instantly be a material chunk of the S&P 500. At 4.6%, they would be larger than the energy sector.’ paulkedrosky.com/n/c09b6fe8-a...
