"Voters" pick the president is a new hot take.
Voters are in charge of picking the president. So how are they not to blame for who the President is?

It's official: Senator Chris Van Hollen is challenging Chuck Schumer to lead the Democratic Senate majority in the next Congress. “The voters called for big change, and this is a time that we have to deliver for people across the country,” - @ChrisVanHollen

Mario Lemieux's cancer season was looking like it had a shot at 200, but to even be in the discussion for 150 in the modern NHL is such an achievement. Gretzky today couldn't do it, I don't think. Speed of the game is so much higher top-to-bottom.
There have only been four 200-point seasons in NHL history, all belong to Wayne Gretzky. Though it's rarely been done, @wyshynski is hopeful Connor McDavid could deliver the next one 🔥 Read more: spr.ly/6017ByyGvc

Abdul's win was so earth shattering that AIPAC themselves understand that their label is toxic, so much so that they are going to go through funneling loopholes to fund their favorite politicians without the "AIPAC" label attached to it
AIPAC is no longer endorsing candidates but their money will keep flowing - and we will keep tracking it! 🕵️‍♂️

Opposite, this is going to see them pivot away from gaming entirely, as that was Jensen's baby. I would bet a lot that they follow Micron's lead and make no consumer grade chips by 2030. I also expect them to pull out of the hedge business GeForce Now.
If one of the upshots of this whole thing is I might be able to buy an RTX 6080 for less than $2,000, I’m gonna join the CCP.

Finally putting together the Fox Force 5.
I’m putting together a team of business-level attractive men and women to destroy the AI industry one honeypot at a time

My last Wendy's order had two silver dollar patties on it with no cheese and a small fry for $20. Maybe stop being greedy assholes.
Wendy’s is testing a creamier Frosty and thicker, crispier bacon after seven consecutive quarters of declining sales It is also considering removing unpopular menu items

Selling your soul does not make you more electable. If we learned anything from last night, let it be that change is the power, and has been for 2 decades now. Be as different from the status quo as you can be, and you will win. Bend knee to losers like Klein, get President JD.
Last year, Ezra Klein encouraged Democrats to run anti-choice candidates to win in "Kansas, Ohio, and Missouri." Both Sherrod Brown (Ohio) and Adam Hamilton (Kansas) won by running on reproductive freedom. Oops!

The democrats should stop this instantly. They will not.
NEWS: The Trump administration is officially planning to sell off public lands. The Interior Department publicly laid out a strategy to reduce the amount of federal lands by selling property to states, tribes, and local governments. washingtonsun.com/energy-env…

This man didn't lose one wink telling you to hold Bear Sears and Lehman Bros. in 2007. "2008 is going to be the best year ever!" He bellowed from his Ivory Tower.
Ask I said this morning, there is a bench. As Mike from Coreweave said, there is a company. What is it worth when a key man is just erased? Let me think about how sickening this is and then i will come back to you. I want to throw up.

Be very careful what you wish for. Because Jensen is pretty much the entire reason there are still gaming graphics cards on the market. His replacement will be a Wall St. empty suite and they'll shut down the 60-series development and get that Silicon into the enterprise cards.

Himself and Jim Cramer should get together to create the best political and stock prediction market in human history. Just bet against everything they say and you can't lose.
bringing back this Matt Y banger💙

You may think the precipitous decline in the company’s stock price reflects investor concerns about management’s poor judgment & undisclosed exposure. But if you had an Econ PhD from Harvard you’d know that it really means the CEO is an underpaid ubermensch.

I've spent my life reporting on corruption. The "bold anti-corruption" agenda from @neeratanden & @RahmEmanuel are small-bore measures designed to deter/distract from a *real* anti-corruption agenda. This is a real anti-corruption agenda: theguardian.com/commentisfre… Don't be fooled

Tensor Coping Unit, Google has already been selling TPUs and Jensen’s Horndog Escapade was also a big part of pumping NVIDIA’s revenues using Chinese proxy sales. Sundar and Hock Tan don’t have the balls to do what Jensen has done in SEA or with circular financing
Bloomberg Intelligence just published research @TheTerminal that looks at how Nvidia’s leadership crisis could push major AI customers toward Google’s lower-cost TPU chips, accelerating their adoption as an alternative to Nvidia’s GPUs and potentially boosting Google Cloud revenue.

Covered this in this week’s free newsletter too. This was effectively ignored at the time by most of the media, @kakashiii111 was on it immediately as ever wheresyoured.at/jensens-biza…

Billy Wagner had a pretty low release height, he was a lefty though, that's all I got.
The #WhiteSox have strong interest in Japanese RHP Kaima Taira, per @MLBBruceLevine The Cubs are also interested, with both Chicago clubs planning to meet with agent Scott Boras during the GM Meetings. White Sox previously scouted Taira in August.

Starting at +1 when you have no name recognition at all is really, really bad. Take about 10-seconds to make this guy -25.
