    Sam Altman Grants US 5% of OpenAI Plus Competitor AI?!

    Sam Altman is reportedly offering 5% equity stakes in OpenAI AND in Google, Anthropic, Meta, and others to the US government as part of a sovereign wealth fund, without apparently asking any of those other companies first. The twist is that Altman doesn't actually own any equity in OpenAI himself, which makes the gesture either brilliant political theater or a promise he can't remotely deliver.

    Your Next Car Just Got Even Pricier! Bye USMCA Free Trade

    The US just declined to renew USMCA (aka new NAFTA), and that's bad news bears for thousands of US firms. Autos make up 18% of trade between the US, Canada, and Mexico, and the supply chain is deeply intertwined across all 3 countries. Tariffs already drove a 625% cost increase on autos and parts since Liberation Day 2025. With average MSRP above $51,000, how much higher prices can go before people stop buying?

    Alibaba Attacks Anthropic As OpenAI Short $1T IPO

    Anthropic got US government approval to expand Mythos access just weeks after reporting it suffered the largest-ever distillation attack, orchestrated by China’s Alibaba. Meanwhile Sam Altman is desperate for a trillion-dollar valuation for OpenAI's IPO, but his own advisors are telling him it's not happening in 2026. Unless Anthropic gets blocked?

    Did China Just Steal ASML's Banned AI Chip Making Tool?

    Stocks are sliding in a global sell-off led by tech, AI, and chips, with the Nasdaq hit hardest. Fresh off its June 12 IPO, SpaceX has already swung wildly—down about $400B in market cap at one point—with focus now on its upcoming index inclusion and the first window for retail investors to sell. AI geopolitics intensifies as US officials probe whether ASML EUV lithography tech reached China, plus Five Eyes issues dire warning about imminent AI cyber attacks, highlighting stratospherically high US–China and EU–China tensions.

    America 250, Are We As Polarized As You Think?

    Pew Research has been mapping American political identity since 1987, and their 2026 typology finds nine distinct voter groups — not two. The loudest voices in US politics come from just 38% of the country, split between the far right and far left, while the majority sits somewhere messier and more complicated in the middle.  Host Neeta Bidwai reflects ahead of America’s 250th anniversary and walks through the 9 political typologies, based on a survey of more than 10,000 Americans, including issues like same-sex marriage, open carry, climate change, regulation, and church-state separation.  CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome and Context 00:47 Pew's 40-Year Typology Project 02:00 24 Questions That Divide America 03:45 Nine Groups Explained 04:45 No Apologies Right 05:30 Faith First Conservatives 06:20 The 53% Humiliation Stat 07:10 Leftward Progressives vs Loyal Liberals 08:30 Order and Opportunity Left 09:20 Unconventional Right Breakdown 10:15 Pragmatic and Polite Right 11:30 Left Out Liberals 12:10 Tuned Out Middle 12:50 Presidential Approval by Group 13:30 Immigration Policy Divides 14:00 Party Diversity Breakdown 14:55 Reflections at 250 Years 16:58 Closing and Next Episode LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT?

    Anthropic Gets Banned Again While OpenAI Lost $38 Billion

    Anthropic is in a full-blown standoff with the White House after the government banned foreign nationals from using Fable 5, the lab's most advanced model, with less than two hours notice. The ban followed a tip from Amazon's CEO, which is raising a lot of eyebrows given how intertwined these companies actually are. On top of that, OpenAI's audited financials just leaked, showing a $38 billion loss in 2025, and the AI price war is making a path to profitability look even harder.

    Energy Prices Will Stay High Even After the Iran "Deal"

    Oil traders celebrated a peace deal and pushed prices below $80 a barrel, but that's not the whole story.

    Iran "Deal" Costs $300B+, High Prices & Weapons Stockpile

    The US Iran memorandum is worth $300B+, and nothing in it is what it appears to be. The Strait of Hormuz is being "reopened" while Iran charges tolls, mines are still in the water, and there's no progress on nuclear talks. Israel isn't a party to any of this, energy prices are sky high, and the Pentagon needs 3+ years and US automakers' help to restock missiles after the US blew through $113B on the war. Does any of this actually hold?
