Iran is taunting the U.S. to strike before the midterms. Someone's calculus has decided that Trump/GOP lose votes if combat operations resume. However, what voters truly value is ending hostilities permanently and restoring order. A decisive win does that job.

Amazon has > 1M robot workers and 1.5M people. Doomers, luddites, socialists: if Amazon reduced its robot workforce by 80%, would that result in more or fewer humans being employed? Would avg wages go up or down? arstechnica.com/ai/2026/10/i…

Mike Rowe on the shortage of skilled-trades workers. For every 5 tradespeople who leave the workforce, only 2 replace them. Rampant poaching and people under 30 are clearing $240k. This is today. Tomorrow, humanoid robots will be in high demand. The trades might escape knowledge AI, but they won't escape physical AI.

JUST IN: "Big Short" investor Michael Burry warns a stock market crash is coming. "The stock market is quite obviously in its first stage of grief, denial. Per 2000 and 2008, this stage lasts 6-9 months." Burry has repeatedly said the stock market is going to crash this year. Today, the S&P 500 hit a new all-time high.

Then Russian factories that make weapons long used against the West in various conflicts are valid targets. If that's how we are going to play, game on.

Today's funny: An old man in Miami calls up his son in New York and says, "Listen, your mother and I are getting divorced. Forty-five years of misery is enough." "Dad, what are you talking about?" the son screams. “We can't stand the sight of each other any longer,” he says. "I'm sick of her face, and I'm sick of talking about this, so call your sister in Chicago and tell her," and he hangs up. Now, the son is worried. So he calls up his sister. She says, "They’re not getting divorced!" and calls her father immediately. "You’re not getting divorced! Don't do another thing; the two of us are flying home tomorrow to talk about this. Until then, don't call a lawyer, don't file a paper, DO YOU HEAR ME?” and she hangs up. The old man turns to his wife and says, "Okay, they’re coming for the holiday and paying their own airfares."

DSA's platform calls for "fully abolishing the police and prison system." Its working group wants police budgets cut "towards zero." RMV asked who would respond to a rape or assault in progress once budgets hit zero. DSA did not respond. @ShainaCole_ rockymountainvoice.com/2026/…

The Rio Grande is full from bank to bank in Albuquerque! All the recent rain has revived the river after it ran dry through the city for most of the summer. What an incredible turnaround in just over a week! #NMwx

Today is the first full day of Fall! It officially began at 6:05 p.m. last night. This photo from Gary Ratcliff in our Discover Colorado Facebook group shows what he said are "dazzling fall colors in the Red Mountain valley" yesterday.

I just got a self-driving Tesla and it is every bit as awesome as you Tesla owners said it would be. I'll also add that apart from the mind-blowing self-driving feature, it's the best handling car I've ever driven, even when not in self-driving mode. Kudos to @elonmusk

Sometimes these Montana sunrises just take my breath away. No filter could improve on what Mother Nature painted across the sky this morning. Absolutely unreal. Montana, you sure know how to show off. ❤️🌄

Sadly, this is what an adversary’s preparation for war looks like in chart form. We should still be planning around the 2027 contingency.
China’s official share of U.S. Treasuries is back to 2001 levels.

The Chinese Communist Party wants you (us Americans) to protest datacenters and Flock cameras. They are funding the activist networks that are inciting individuals (who otherwise wouldn't give 2-cents about either issue) to protest and vandalize. Before you join this, ask why.

Mountain Minute for 9/2: Colorado’s road-funding measure was abruptly pulled from the November ballot—one day before a $295M-a-year passenger rail tax moved forward. Plus: Jena Griswold’s voter-data exposure hits her AG opponent, Pueblo spills millions of gallons of sewage, and Colorado districts lose their transgender sports lawsuit.
