A corruption scandal is fascinating to some people right up until they find out which party is involved.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

Putin released a 74-year-old American from prison today. That’s worth celebrating. But it doesn’t earn Putin a humanitarian halo while Russian missiles are still falling on Ukrainian homes.

A billionaire shouldn’t have a dimmer switch on Ukraine’s ability to defend itself against Russian drones.
GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick says if Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of Starlink in Ukraine, "that is likely a violation of the law." "We've gotta investigate...We've got to call the witnesses, got to bring them in, put them under oath, and get to the bottom of it. Because this is this is a very, very serious matter. It cannot be glossed over."

President Trump’s assistance to Vladimir Putin keeps growing by the day, and in the latest example he stuck a shiv in the back of the legacy of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham. wsj.com/opinion/to-russia-wi…

We’re two weeks from another election. When it’s over, we’ll still share streets, schools, hospitals and fire departments with people who voted differently. The result matters. So does how we treat each other once the signs come down.

Bullish.
Two weeks ago, I resigned from OpenAI to join Conduit as a founding researcher, where we're training models to non-invasively read the human mind. I've written some thoughts about what telepathy could look like by 2035 and how to get there:
