White House World Cup taskforce executive director Andrew Giuliani weighs in on FIFA v. Jersey over transportation costs: Of the $100 million transportation grant that went out a month ago, $10.4 million went to New York/New Jersey. If you assume that there are 30,000 fans that are going to MetLife stadium over 8 games, that’s over 40 dollars per rider. If it’s 40k riders, that’s over 30 dollars per rider; I think the president has really done everything he can to really look at it and say we are doing what we can to make sure that for those that are going to be using public transit during the World Cup, the government really hasn’t forgotten about them. The president also wanted to highlight we’re not here to fix longterm problems that may exist in the state of New Jersey with their transit, or the city of New York or the state of New York. This is for the World Cup. Q: Is it acceptable for tickets from Penn Station to MetLife Stadium to be above $100? Look, I am going to make sure we’re focusing on what the President has done to make sure it can be affordable.

My full exchange with Secretary Bessent on next steps for the AI EO: Q: You’re obviously concerned about the risks pose by advanced AI models like Mythos to critical infrastructure. The financial sector is concerned. What changes are being considered for the AI executive order so it could pass? Bessent: Again, we're working very closely with the large language labs. They've been excellent partners, and we are going to get a solution that solves for the maximum calculus. Bessent: What we want to do — the us is the AI leader in the world. We’re an ai superpower. China is second. They are trailing substantially. We want to make sure that we keep that lead. So we are working on the exact calculus between innovation and safety. And we want to optimize for that. (He did not answer the second part of my question about whether the EO should include pre-public access for government.)
