Failed Robotaxi ride in 91° heat. I LOVE Tesla Robotaxi and tonight is date night and I was SO EXCITED to take my Wife on an Unsupervised Robotaxi ride for drinks and dinner in Austin. I hailed the ride after “High Service Demand” cleared after ~15mins of trying. A red Model Y shows up with zero Robotaxi markings on it and a guy driving in the front seat. I was immediately let down but we had already waited so long and we needed to reach out destination so we got in. His hands were on the wheel the whole time and it felt like it was last year when the program was just starting. The Supervisor was nice but the ride went sideways. We tried to go to Zanzibar in Austin but the car drove right by the entrance and took us ~a 1/4 mile way out of the way to a residential apartment building. We asked the supervisor what was going on and he called Support and told us to press the support button. Support came on the line and said there was nothing they could do. We had to walk in the 91° heat. We were dressed in nice clothes and shoes not made for walking. My Wife was NOT impressed. I was embarrassed as I had talked up the service so much. On our walk to our destination, we witnessed a Waymo dropping off a rider in the place that we should have been dropped off. Additionally, when we arrived at our destination, hot and sweaty, we saw that there was plenty of room to drop us off. Very frustrating. The best part is, we paid for this experience.

Finally found time for my small (big) side project. I always wanted to print a full table for our D&D campaign. The table is 148 x 238 cm, that's a lot of surface to fill. The classic way is months of foam, glue and paint, so I'm running it like a game production instead, with GPT-6 Astra driving. 1. Astra blocked out the whole town in primitives first. Boxes standing in for houses, roads, open squares. We also made a small mood reference so we both knew what the town should feel like. Everything is cheap to move around while it's still a box. 2. Buildings I generate in 3DAIStudio. Image reference for each house first, then the 3D model from it. Getting the picture first matters: a house I don't like dies in seconds instead of after the model is done. I kept switching generators inside it, some houses came out better in Tripo 3.1, some in Hi3D 3.0, it's all in one box there. It also plugs into your agent over MCP. And Mesh 7.1 is landing there soon, promising 4k resolution, will see. 3. We drop the finished models back into the blockout and keep filling until it reads like a town instead of a pile of props. Street widths, where the open space goes, what's tall, what's low. 4. Now the part I'm starting today: cutting every house into floors. Ground floor, upper floor, roof, stacked so they lift off. Roof comes off, you play the top floor. A house that doesn't open is scenery, and I want the party to go inside. The generator only gives me the outside, so every floor gets a floor plate, walls with printable thickness, doorways wide enough for a base, stairs where they make sense. First batch goes on the printer as I finish cutting. 148 x 238 cm is going to keep that printer running for weeks and I'm fine with that😄 To be continued...

After Elon Musk reposted my Grok Bot guide, my friend Ryan used it to run his strip club. 7 days ago, he replaced his entire middle management with 8 Grok agents ($200/mo). Last week alone, he saved $10,000 in salaries and missed leads. Not because the club magically got better, but because he killed the middle layer that was eating his margin. Before that, the setup was classic and expensive. Back-of-house sat on 6 people: > 1 recruiter > 1 person on applications > 1 cashier > 2 shift managers > 1 person on after-close requests That layer cost about $8,400–$9,200 a week once you counted base pay, cuts, “bonuses,” and money that never made the report. The recruiter took $50–$150 per new girl. The cashier spent 1.5–2 hours closing a shift. On Friday the managers generated 80–120 messages on the schedule alone. The after-shift person held 10–15 requests in his head and lost 2–3 of them every week simply because someone did not answer in time. Ryan saw the formula fast. Those people almost never made hard decisions. They moved data. • An application came in → a person opened a chat. • A girl wrote “I can do Friday” → a person typed a row into a spreadsheet. • A client left a request → a person relayed it to a manager. • The manager opened the schedule → and texted the girl. • The shift ended → the cashier counted a stack and entered a number by hand. Every handoff leaked time and money. Applications. A live staffer used to review 40–60 incoming files a week. One file took 8–12 minutes. Total: 7–10 hours of raw review, plus another 3–4 hours on “send a reminder,” “send more,” “when can you work.” Out of 50 applications, 6–8 made it to a shift. Conversion was weak not because of the room, but because half the threads went cold for 24–48 hours. Scheduling. Friday looked like this: 12 people want on, 8 slots. 1 can start only after 21:00. 1 will not work after 00:00. 1 drops out with 40 minutes left. 1 wants a swap. A manager already promised the slot to a fifth person. One change created 5 new messages. One substitution cycle took 20–40 minutes. By the end of the night there were 3–5 holes in the grid. Money. That was the dirtiest part. By morning the count was off by $180–$400 on average. Sometimes $70. Sometimes $600. The explanations were always human: tips booked to the wrong place, a commission forgotten, a number rounded, an envelope put in the wrong pile, a shift closed from memory. The cashier was not an analyst. He was a loss point. After-shift requests. The old chain took 25–45 minutes: client → manager → spreadsheet → message to the girl → wait → reply to the client. Out of 12 requests, 2–3 died in transit. Not because of a refusal. Because of human lag. 7 days ago Ryan cut that layer and hung it on Grok. The application flow dropped into one funnel with statuses: NEW → REVIEW → APPROVED → SCHEDULED → ACTIVE → INACTIVE The bot sent the first packet itself, collected the fields, and closed the gaps. If data was missing → it asked. If there was silence for 48 hours → it nudged. Ryan no longer opened 50 chats. He opened one feed. He touched only REVIEW and exceptions by hand. First-pass review fell from 8–12 minutes per application to 30–90 seconds of control. In a week, 53 applications went through the funnel. 11 made it to a shift. That was no longer “we got lucky.” That was because no application rotted in a manager’s DMs. The schedule became a rule, not a group chat. A girl marked available slots. The system saw 8 seats, not “we’ll figure it out.” Overbook went to a waitlist. A drop with 40 minutes left no longer spawned a 5-chat mess: the slot jumped to the next person in line in 10–20 seconds. Friday noise fell from 80–120 messages to 10–15 exceptions. Shift manager as a job title became unnecessary. The register stopped being a notebook. Every operation was written immediately. Shift close produced one summary: - floor revenue - tips - commissions - payouts - adjustments - variance If the total did not match, the system did not say “error somewhere.” It pointed at the exact operation. Over 7 days, variance stayed in the $0–$25 range instead of the old $180–$400. The weekly difference was about $1,200–$2,500 on “it didn’t add up” alone. The client loop collapsed from 4 human nodes into 1 route. A request entered the bot. The bot pulled the standard fields, checked availability, pinged the girl, and after 2 confirmations closed both sides with a notification. Cycle time fell from 25–45 minutes to 2–4 minutes on a standard request. Burned requests for the week: 0. Before that, it was 2–3 lost checks every week. Ryan’s role got narrow and hard. The bot closed the rule. He closed the exception. Morning looked like a panel, not a meeting: > 3 new applications in NEW > 1 card in REVIEW > 2 shift cancellations > 1 operation for manual review > 47 automated messages already sent without him The only living parts left were him and the girls on the floor. Plus anyone who took an after-shift call. The middle layer: sourcing, screening, schedule, requests, counting → sat on a $200 subscription. In numbers, the week looked like this. Old model: > 6 people in the management loop > $8,400–$9,200 for that layer > 7–10 hours on applications > 80–120 messages on one heavy Friday > $180–$400 holes in the cash > 2–3 lost requests > 25–45 minutes per client cycle New model: > 1 person > $200 for the tool > 30–90 seconds of standard application control > 10–15 exceptions instead of a whole-floor chat storm > $0–$25 on the register > 0 lost standard requests > 2–4 minutes per standard cycle That is where the ~$10,000 in 7 days came from. Not “floor magic.” A removed human tax: - pay for 6 people - recruiter cuts - cash holes - burned requests - hours spent moving the same row from a chat into a spreadsheet In this system, those people were not the “soul of the club.” They were latency and leak. Every extra node added delay. Every live data handoff added error. Every notebook added a gap for rounding. Ryan removed the nodes. He left rules, statuses, a ledger, and one escalation point. So after 7 days the model already counted as a delta, not an experiment. $200 on top. About $10,000 in the plus. And the proof was short: the club ran. The middle-layer staff did not. Their job was done by the bot. bookmark this.

“There is a breakaway civilization.” “I don’t think it’s a government entity.” And they may live off-planet. “The Pentagon every once in a while announces: we’ve misplaced $1 trillion.” “What they’re really saying is: we’ve hidden that from you.” Whitley Strieber just dropped shocking claims about deep state UFO reverse-engineering programs. His alien abduction story has become one of the famous abduction cases out there. But he’s convinced that he was also visited by a deep state “breakaway civilization.” This is his story: “The cabin that we lived in … was very isolated.” “It’s a summer night, windows are open.” “Suddenly, I hear … the sound clearly of a car rolling into the driveway.” “So I’m immediately frightened.” “I’m starting to go for the shotgun.” “I see, at that moment, two people standing at the foot of the bed.” “I have not seen them come in.” “They’re already on top of me.” “The next thing I know … I am lying on my right side, facing my wife.” “They’re pushing down on the left side of my head.” “After a couple of seconds, they start to leave.” “I immediately try to jump up and follow them.” “They get out of the house.” “There’s a flash of light, and the sound of what sounds like people crashing through the woods.” “I note that the LED on the alarm system is still red. It’s not been tripped.” “I run through the whole house, looking for a point of entry.” “There is no point of entry.” “It is now completely silent. There’s nothing outside.” “And I’m left to think, what the hell? Did that happen or not?” “The next morning … the alarm system is still armed. Garage door’s wide open.” “So I call the alarm guy, and he comes over, and he says: there’s a huge magnetic field there. I have no idea how to explain it … and that’s what’s keeping the garage door from tripping the alarm.” “Richard Dolan talks about a breakaway civilization.” “I think I’m looking at a breakaway civilization’s actions on that night.” “At one point in my life, I was helping some people in the elected part of the government try to pin down some things involving an air base that wasn’t on the Pentagon’s roster.” “What was odd, there was no sign of any money going from the Treasury to the people on this air base.” “Yet they were receiving what looked like Treasury checks.” “Someone, somewhere, was paying them somehow, apparently out of the US Treasury, and they weren’t on any lists.” “That, to me, suggests some kind of government connection with something that isn’t being operated normally.” Tanya Dahl: “The breakaway society, are those people living on Earth?” Strieber: “Who knows?” “Maybe they can go places that most of us can’t go.” “But I do think they’re using our money, and a lot of it.” Cody Blue: “One of the most fascinating things when you analyze the phenomenon … of crashed UFOs or experiences, you always have those stories of the men in black, and they show up almost immediately.” “But you hear the same story in America, in Mexico, in Italy, and it makes you go, that’s not the American government.” “That’s something else … ” Whitley Strieber Acid For Squares

SpaceX was just rumored to be worth $800B But retail investors are still locked out Unless you buy $SATS It's the next retail favorite: a SpaceX treasury play trading at a HUGE discount to NAV. Shoutout @transhumanica for being the first to call this 🧵🚀 You know Echostar ($SATS) as the OG telecom behind Dish Network. It was on death's doorstep but 3 blockbuster Spectrum deals changed everything. 1. $17B deal with SpaceX (half stock/half cash) 2. $23B spectrum sale to AT&T 3. Another $2.6B deal with SpaceX (all stock) These deals turned $SATS into a SpaceX proxy. It got $11.1B in SpaceX stock at a $400B valuation. If the $800B is true. $SATS is now sitting on $22.2B of SpaceX stock and tens of billions in cash and other assets. But its market cap was only $23B after the market close Friday (even after +10% pop) So what is $SATS actually worth? Well even if these rumors are false the math is: ~$11.1B in SpaceX ~$17B in projected net cash ~$6.4B in other spectrum assets ~$3B Boost mobile So ~$37.5B NAV. SATS popped 10% Friday because of the rumor and only closed at a $23B. Let's compute NAV with SpaceX worth $800B. ~$22.2B in SpaceX ~$17B in projected net cash ~$6.4B in other spectrum assets ~$3B Boost mobile So ~$48.6B NAV Echostar is trading at ~100% discount to its balance sheet if this valuation rumor is true. What's crazy is that $SATS should be trading at a PREMIUM to net asset value. The closest publicly traded SpaceX proxy is DXYZ. It's a closed-end fund with about 50% of its assets in SpaceX. It trades at a whopping 270% premium. $3 for every $1 of SpaceX... Now you may be wondering why I’m projecting $SATS to have $17B in cash despite currently having $27B of debt, and the SpaceX and AT&T deals only offering around $30B cash. This is probably the biggest thing that investors don’t currently understand. The Echostar holding company isn’t responsible for paying off the debt of some of its subsidiaries like Dish Network and Hughes Network Systems. These account for around $14B of that debt. Echostar only needs to pay off $11.4B of its debt because its tied to its spectrum assets as collateral. Hence $17B in cash. It's worth noting that the deals aren't done yet + SpaceX $800B is a rumor. But the government wants these deals done and SpaceX will be worth $2-3T by 2030. So how can you not get in and buy discounted SpaceX stock through $SATS. Another reason $SATS will explode? 95% of Echostar's float is held by institutions. That remaining 5% will get attacked by retail once its figured out. At the time I'm making this thread $SATS jumped 10% Sunday night pre-market. That's +20% in 72 hours. The market is waking up but it's still very confused. Big thanks to @transhumanica who published the original thesis on Echostar being a SpaceX proxy. You MUST follow him as he was behind the $KRKNF Anduril proxy TOO. He's got some of the best research in the game and a must follow on this platform if you want real alpha. If you want to stay up to date with $SATS, I'm going to cover it more here Michael Sikand Will also discuss on my stream tmrw with WOLF I highly recommend you just watch my YouTube video as it's far more comprehensive than this thread.

🗣️ Mikel Arteta has to make changes for Crystal Palace. 🔄 “December is the month where players get injured more than ever. If there’s one thing Mikel Arteta struggles with. It's rotation and Arsenal are paying the price for it right now. “Benjamin White playing three games in a row straight off a long-term injury. That's pretty unnecessary. Gabriel playing a friendly when he reportedly wasn't 100%, that was questionable as well. “Situation with Benjamin White, he's now out, Gabriel out, soon to return. Saliba not fully fit, even Mikel said that himself. He had to rush him back. That was a risk, which breeds more injuries. It's a vicious cycle. “Hincapie had an injury the other day against Everton, where Calafiori sort of like went into him and he even had to have like a look like a like a deep heat or something on on him like a bit of pain relief. “So he's probably not even look hundred percent. No one seemed to pull that up at the end of the match, but he didn't look like he was moving that comfortably. He did complete the 90 minutes. Of course, Mosquera. Another one who's not available. I feel like at the moment with Arsenal there's one position just gets absolutely pummeled. So at the moment, it's the defence. At the start of the season, it was all the strikers. So now we're packed up front, we're ruined in defence. So there's not many options. “I read an article the other day where it said, December is the month where players they get injured more than ever because there's so many games, the load is so high, it's just it's just too much. “I mean, even Bruno Fernandes of Manchester United, the most durable player in football pretty much, and he got injured from a hamstring the other night. It just goes to show what this period's like for the players. “So I think Mikel has a duty to look after the players, they just had a week off. It's the first week they've had off in since like international break and it's not going to change until February, so it's not going to stop. “Mikel has a duty to look after these players and make sure this doesn't derail our season. Arsenal haven't won the Carabao Cup since 1993, before I was even born. I've never seen us win it. I've always wanted us to win it, but I'm not going to get upset if we don't win it. I think Mikel's under a lot of pressure this season to bring home silverware but if it's not the Premier League or Champions League, it's going to be the same result. “I think this match is a match for rotation. I think it's a match for Noni Maduweke, Ethan Wainieri. Marli Salmon, even Josh Nichols at right-back. Timber needs a rest. Saliba probably needs a rest. Hincapie may need a rest, given the extent of his injury. I think the players are on the limit at the moment. “I think we're very close to being beyond the limit for Arsenal. We're in a very good position, thanks to Mikel and the players and the staff, everything right now. But let's not ruin that over a Carabao Cup. “We need to win a trophy, but a Carabao Cup isn't going to relieve the pressure on Mikel Arteta, I'm afraid. It's just not. You know what's coming if he wins it. Oh, he's not won the Champions League. He's not won the Premier League. Doesn't matter. “Obviously, it would be delightful to win. a trophy, like even when he won the FA Cup, he has won a trophy for Arsenal, major trophy, but that was a long time ago, and this season's the season in my opinion. “He needs to prioritise what matters for him. Here's a starting 11 I'd go with. Got Josh Nichols in there, Marli Salmon. I know Josh and that have been actually training with the first team ahead of this match, so. I wouldn't be surprised to see the likes of him in the squad. “You never know, he might start. Knowing Arteta though, he probably won't start, but I'd like to see him start. What's your opinion on it? Should Arteta rotate massively?“

One question that's been on my mind for years now is: could we use regular multimodal LLMs not necessarily trained for robotics to do the high level robotics intelligence part that VLAs and WAMs attempt to do? The latest explosion of powerful opensource multi-modal LLMs has, IMO, begun to make this possible due both to intelligence and speed. This is GLM 5.3 Flash, which has vision understanding, but isn't meant to be a VLA/VLM/WAM/robotics model at all, controlling an XGO mini wheeled robot quadruped with an arm & gripper. GLM 5.3F simply has access to the robot's high level SDK for controlling movement, arm joints, open/close gripper...etc. It analyzes the frames from the camera and makes adjustments all on its own to solve the task. Nothing was trained here, nothing fine-tuned for this task. Z AI did not make this model for robots and tbh I think they're surprised this works when I talk to them about it! This also works quite well with DSV4F + a vision capable model like Qwen 3.8 27B. I havent tried JUST Qwen 3.8 27B, but I'm sure it works too. I like the "logic" to be a model that's as fast as possible (but still intelligent). There's also an experimental vision version of DSV4F, I'm confident that'll work too and might even be better bc the full loop might be the fastest of all with this model. An obvious question you might wonder is: well why not use VLA or VLM? The hard part about robotics isn't object detection, that's long solved. This also isn't a solution for gait/locomotion...yet, but I actually don't think this is far away either and I've done some experimentation with LLMs in this space in the past and it does show promise. It might actually already be here for quadrupeds, since you dont need super fast IMU readings to maintain balance. I've also tried many of the larger, more generalist, VLAs that you should be able to use with popular robots and tbh there are just so many edge cases that make things hard and not work. You gotta get the camera, lighting, task, everything *just right* or the demo fails. This is for the actual hard part in robotics right now: intelligence, logic, and planning for all the ways the real world just simply isn't perfect. I've trained VLAs. They're super finicky and you're always running into sim2real issues, especially around the camera. You also have to build the whole training pipeline in a simulator, and, if everything does work, you still just have a robot that does this 1 single thing after weeks of work. If you use teleop, this overcomes the "2real" problem, but now you need to painstakingly collect teleop data, and it's only good at that specific task and that particular robot. There is a growing set of egocentric training data for "general purpose" VLAs and world action models (for humanoid form factors), but I'm really starting to wonder: Why? I think we might just sidestep this whole area of research entirely. I didn't need any training data or special environment to work with this quadruped and arm to do the task I was after. This particular quadruped and arm doesn't even exist in the wild yet really, it's a demo build from a company launching it on kickstarter, so it's not like this robot's data exists in the LLM to any real extent. I think this is cool as heck that this works and I am interested to see just how far I can push it. Also this marks the first time that I've finally got a generalist solution to a task I've been trying to solve ever since I became a dad of twins: pick up toys off the ground. This is a big day!

With Y Combinator demo day coming up this weekend, I wanted to reflect on what I learned from YC W14, 10 years on + another company in: 1. The 7 minute espresso rule. Our first meeting with Sam Altman lasted just 7 minutes. The batch hadn’t even officially started yet and my cofounder Ryan Rowe and I drove down from Mountain View to the tiny SF YC outpost to meet him. Sam was making an espresso when we walked in. He opened with – “have you launched”? We said no, too many bugs. Our product Kimono Labs made it easy to just point and click to build a web scraper. Our promise was to get you an API in 60 seconds, without code. But it only worked on a handful of sites at the time. Sam pushed us to launched in 2 weeks. We debated. The espresso finished brewing, he picked it up, looked at us and said, “well, you better get going then and fix those bugs”. We left, launched in 2 weeks and learned one of the most important lessons that day - speed matters. Ship something you’re embarrassed by. 2. There are no experts. Ryan and I were not prepared for the rapid influx of user on launch day. It got tons of traffic on day 1 and we didn’t sleep in the next 48 hours bc servers and database kept crashing. We realized we weren’t the experts and needed to hire one. We went over to Michael Seibel for advice who smiled and told us that in the early days at SocialCam (Twitch) experts thought the streaming video problem was impossible. The answer wasn’t hiring an expert, but hiring someone young, capable and naïve enough to give it an earnest try. So we opted to just figure it out ourselves. 3. Messages in Pizza Boxes. Startups win through incredible customer service, then through product, not the other way around. Seibel told us how SocialCam’s streaming infrastructure went down while a key teammate was unreachable off-grid in a Tahoe cabin for the weekend. Normal people would have waited until Monday. Not Michael. He called a local pizza delivery place and asked the delivery person to send a large pizza with an urgent message in the box to the cabin. Their infrastructure was back up in hours. 4. The Twinkle can matter more than the TAM. Ambition matters just as much as practicality. Before demo day, we were struggling with the end of our pitch. We knew the value of our product, and had a fanatical and fast-growing user base, but the market size we calculated either seemed so ridiculously big that it was not plausible, or so narrow that it was equally silly. Paul Graham and Geoff Ralston sat with us and showed that us that if we can really pull it off at scale, it would be bigger than Google. PG suggested not talking about market size, but just making sure people could see the twinkle in our eyes when we talked about what you might be able to do with a structured copy of the internet that’s larger than Google’s. 5. You’re always at the Origin. Our demo day was successful beyond our wildest beliefs. Afterwards, Geoff drew a chart for us on a whiteboard. It was a hockey stick. He asked us where we thought we were. It was a rhetorical question. He said we were at the origin. Sam doubled down. When he invested in Kimono, he gave us a Zimbabwean Trillion dollar note (the result of extreme hyperinflation in Zimbabwe), as a cautionary reminder that the fundraising and valuation mean nothing. We have channeled this into our culture @TheArenaAI with our ritual around neon shoelaces and a pair of neon track spikes hanging on the wall to remind us that we’re at the Olympic starting line, but we don’t have any medals yet. 6. High bandwidth discussions with users don’t happen over email. The “Collison installation” is part of YC lore. John Collison told us that talking to users live was essential because email and chat conversations were just not enough. We did 100s of Skype conversations with Kimono users + one power user Alex Chung, who I met this way, has become a close friend and even attended my wedding in India last year!

"You're a scumbag... how do you even look yourself in the mirror?" She said after we presented her with an offer above list price This is the story of how we closed the biggest deal in Frasier Cole history after one person and one conversation fueled a legendary revenge deal: November 15th, 2021, 1,323 days ago, 6 months into us starting Frasier Cole, we were working with a buyer who was in exchange. We already had 2 deals under contract with them and they really needed a 3rd to complete the exchange. We saw a deal that had been listed 2 days previously and it fit the clients criteria and remaining amount in their exchange. Best of all, we had a relationship with the listing brokerage as we are already under contract with them on another deal for this client's exchange. Asking price was $5m and we offered $5,090,000 30 day look/10 day close. 2 hours later we received a call from the CEO of the company. She started off cordial because, well, Mason had a prior professional relationship with this woman. Things quickly turned when she asked Mason "How he looked himself in the mirror?" and telling him he a "scumbag who only cares about low hanging fruit?" "Under no circumstance will we be paying you any commission on this deal. Your client is welcome to buy it but we will be keeping the entire fee" The reason was because she's known our client for years and because we already are under contract on a deal with this company. Our response was "If you know the buyer so well, why didn't you show him this deal?" That only made her more angry... so she said they let the other deal slide but this one they have no intention of paying a commission. Mind you, this woman makes $1-2m a year. We told the client and they were unwilling to pay our fee. Mason and I were pissed - what could we do? We have no signed buyer rep agreement and no recourse. We could let it go, move on, take the high road... F*ck that We started thinking of ways to get revenge... The best idea we could come up with that night is to buy their office building, rezone it for MF, and kick 'em out. It worked because it was a shitty office building on maybe the best development tract in Dallas. We looked up the owner of their office building and immediately called him "Would you sell 5550 LBJ?" "Yeah, actually this is perfect timing we just sorted out a title issue and are looking to sell." "Great, we'll get you an offer and take it from there" Holy sh*t We immediately called one of my best friends and college roommate Dustin who worked for a PE group in NYC. They loved the deal. What's not to love? 8.5 acres, 364k SF of office, and an existing parking garage. 17% occupied and all had short term leases or were willing to be bought out. Within a couple weeks we had an incredible offer to put in front of the owner and we were off to the races. That deal closed late yesterday after 1,322 days of working on it. Funny enough, the CEO who wronged us already moved their company out of the property before we were able to close. That's fine. Before they left, she found out that we had put the deal together. We heard she yelled at her office and land broker because they couldn't sell the building they were working in. We are now on to bigger and better things, but this one feels good. --- The story of the actual deal is an incredible one, but I wanted to highlight how it came about. I will post the story of the actual transaction soon, but for now... enjoy our revenge story

Anthony Kim will play with Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm tomorrow in the final group at LIV Golf Adelaide. They spoke about AK’s story: Bryson: “What an incredible story, first off. Going from the lowest of lows, almost moving away from this earth and then coming back and really taking accountability and raising his little girl and being a family man and being 1 percent better every day. It's an inspiring story that I think honestly should have a lot more media attention than it does. It deserves that. “It shows some of the opportunities that LIV Golf can provide and give hope to people. It's another opportunity to play. I think that's what's so brilliant about it is you've got a guy like that that's struggled pretty much his entire career, and this is really when he has become more of himself than any other time, more of a family man, a father, a great person that cares deeply about playing good golf now. That's all he cares about, and he loves it. I think that's really inspiring for anybody at any age, that you can pick it up and be a better person. “My hats off to him for doing everything he's doing, working as hard as he has to get back. He's an incredible talent, obviously; we know that. He's starting to show it, and for him to be in the final group will be fun. I actually haven't played with him yet, so it'll be fun to see how he golfs his ball.” Jon: “I was able to enjoy a car ride back to the hotel from the golf course in Riyadh, which somehow there's traffic at midnight there, so it was quite a bit over an hour, and he shared quite a bit of his story with me. What he's doing is nothing short of remarkable. “I really hope he can find the right person to tell his story, however form, movie, documentary series, book, whatever it is, because what he's doing is so impressive. Where he was at in life to where he's at now -- I've been able to play with him. I played in Singapore in his first season with him early on. Both of us played with him here last year in the first round, and I played with him yesterday, and the progression, the jump from those two times to yesterday, it's impressive. “The round he played yesterday on not the easiest golf course was incredible. Didn't really miss a shot. Shot 5-under and should have been lower because he did not make many putts. It was a flawless round of golf. It's impressive. It's impressive. “To see him now being part of a team after earning his spot back in the league, making a 15-footer on the second day to get into the final qualifying day, he's been proving it. “After everything he's gone through, if there's somebody that's not going to be scared to be out here and have to make the putts, it's somebody him like. I wouldn't be surprised if at this point this season he's somebody who's hoisting the trophy at the end of the week.” Hopefully AK can put on a show tomorrow and contend with them 👊

BREAKING - MUST WATCH: This was perhaps the most EXPLOSIVE exchange today between Dr. Anthony Fauci and Congressman Rich McCormick (Congressman Rich McCormick, MBA MD), a medical doctor who treated patients during COVID but was censored for pointing out the science. He told Fauci, "You said in an interview that you gave as part of an audiobook written by Michael Specter that you believed institutions should make it hard for people to live their lives so they'd feel pressured to get vaccinated." WATCH Question: Someone said only politicians, only bloggers, only conspiracy theorists are disagreeing with you. I want to point out that I'm probably the only member of Congress that actually treated patients during the pandemic. From the very beginning to the very end of the pandemic, during night shifts in the ER, thousands of patients during that time and in 2020 I was censored. My medical license was threatened because I disagreed with bureaucrats, literally taken off the Internet as a person who is treating patients with leading edge technologies, developing theories, but doing my very best, but being censored by the United States government for the first time, stepping in and taking the place of medical professionals as the experts in healthcare. Any dissent surrounding COVID-19 treatments, mask mandates, and any public policy surrounding the pandemic was immediately labeled as anti-science. I watched as public health officials and politicians told my patients what treatment options were best for them, regardless of their comorbidities or their medical history. Despite my education and my training and my experience, my opinions were relegated to conspiracy and misinformation by so-called healthcare experts who had never treated a patient throughout the entire pandemic. This has been a black eye on the medicine and has highlighted why government should never, never insert itself in between patients and their healthcare providers. The American people deserve to make medical decisions through conversations with their physicians rather than politically motivated mandates. Question: Doctor Fauci, did you ever treat a patient for COVID during the pandemic? Answer: I was part of a team that was at the NIH that took care. We didn't take care of many of them. Question: Okay, so not hands-on. Got it. Thank you. Why would I be criticized by a bureaucrat for doing my very best as a healthcare professional? This is a rhetorical question, but why? Why would the government, who has never treated a patient for COVID... You can read all the things you want, but you're not there. You're not seeing patients. You're not watching people die. Intubating patients right there with that disease in your face, watching it happen, watching the development of this disease and actually learning from it. But I'm being told by bureaucrats what's right and wrong. And what's funny is everything I was censored on, I was proven to be right. Pretty crazy, isn't it? Question: You said in an interview that you gave as part of an audiobook written by Michael Specter that you believed institutions should make it hard for people to live their lives so they'd feel pressured to get vaccinated. Could we run the audio clip on that, please? Answer: You think it can be done about it. I have to say that I don't see a big solution other than some sort of mandatory. I know federal officials don't like to use that term. Once people feel empowered and protected legally, you are going to have schools, universities, and colleges are going to say, you want to come to this college, buddy? You're going to get vaccinated, lady. You're going to get vaccinated. Big corporations like Amazon and Facebook and all of those others are going to say, you want to work for us? You get vaccinated. And it's been proven that when you make it difficult for people in their lives, they lose their ideological bullshit and they get vaccinated. Thank you. Question: Are all objections to COVID vaccinations ideological bullshit, Doctor Fauci? Answer: No, they're not. And that's not what I was referring to. Question: Well, in reference to making it hard for people to get education, traveling, working, I'd say it very much was in context, and I take great offense to this. Miss Allison Williams testified before this committee about losing her job because she sought an exemption for ESPN's vaccine mandate, which came from recommendations from bureaucrats like yourself. She and her husband were actively working with a fertility expert, a physician, on how to get pregnant, and agreed with the premise that she was young, healthy, wanted to get pregnant, and shouldn't get the vaccination for medical purposes. But she was fired because you made it hard, just like you said in your statement, because you didn't want to make sure that the ideological bullshit got in the way of her working, of living her life, of making a medical decision with her healthcare professional. I think America should take great offense to this. That's exactly what you meant when you said making it hard for people to live without getting a vaccination. You affected people's ability to work, travel, be educated, to actually flourish in American society, to self-determine as we're all given God-given rights. Shame on you, Doctor Fauci. You've become doctor of fear. Americans do not hate science. I don't hate science. The American people hate having their freedoms taken from them. You inspired and created fear through mask mandates, school closures, vaccine mandates that have destroyed the American people's trust in our public health institutions. This fear you created will continue to have ripple effects over generations to come. You have already seen its effects in education, in the economy, and everything else, quite frankly.

⃤ Video of a Black Triangle - What's the Frequency, Gerry? ⃤ "A very clear visual representation of what was on the radar. It resembled a very black, triangular or delta shape to it" "It was always slightly out of focus for some reason." "Garry Nolan told us to watch for the cloud formations." (If you scroll down to the bottom, I'll tell you the exact time stamps for each the UAP videos that were shown.) "We believe [it's NHI]. Either that or some very sophisticated technology that maybe we're reverse engineering." "There was a specific electronic signature (frequency) emanating from them when they were going into or coming out of the water, so they were easy to track." ~Bob Fish ~ Gerry Tedesco: August 29th, "we were in the RV, running tests on our equipment because we was planning on going out that weekend." John Tedesco: "And we noticed that we had a signature (on their spectrum analyzer) there that was well presented, very unusual for the area. And we kind of collaborated that with some radar data. Radar seemed to align with what we had on the spectrum analyzer. The object, we believe, was over the water at that point, simply because of the distance that we were able to capture it on the radar. It presented in a cloud layer, exited a cloud layer, produced a signature." Gerry; "This was a single thunderstorm cloud in the sky and the weather was great. We had cumulous clouds out there, mostly clear. And this was a dark, cumulonimbus cloud. It was a very dark thunderstorm cloud, and it looked out a place. " Ross Coulthart: "Do you think that that cloud might have been a fake cloud?" Donna Lee Nardo: "So Garry P. Nolan, he came out with us for our field study one night. He told us, Watch for the cloud formations.' And John, Gerry, and I saw one really nasty-looking...it looked like 10 motherships situated...oriented north to south, one night when we were doing the field study. And I believe this was early on in 2022. And it also was a clear night, but it just looked out of place. It was dark, yet there were lighted portions. But it was just so humongous. And we always remember that Garry had said, look at the cloud formations." Gerry: "Yeah, we definitely had some oddities out there." Coulthart: "I've had people, multiple people have sent me imagery. There's quite famous ones on YouTube where you see what looks like a cloud, and it's shaped just ever so slightly like a disc or a craft. And it's got the fluffy edges of a cloud, and then it suddenly maneuvers and just moves away. And I sometimes wonder whether something or someone is using clouds as a form of stealth or signature management." Gerry: "That's a possibility. We look at that, we look to see if it is a cloud. We use shortwave infrared, which does pick up moisture. And it'll actually differentiate the precipitation in a cloud, or moisture in a cloud, so we know it is a real cloud." Coulhart: "Did you do that with this cloud that night?" John: "Exactly, exactly. And this is something that we could determine that there wasn't moisture content." Coulthart: "So you were able to show it wasn't a classic cumulonimbus cloud, even though it looked like one." John: "No, no. Yeah, and the object was well hidden for a short period of time. Actually, relatively long period of time before it emerged from the cloud body." Coulthart: "So Donna is probably right: This is probably some kind of intelligent stealth management by something." Gerry: "It's a possibility." Donna: "Possibly." John: "It could very well be." (I like how all three will only go as far as, Possible and Could be.) Coulthart: "This is where it gets really interesting. Talk me through what happens next. " Gerry: "Okay, so we watched an object emerge from the cloud on radar. John and I quickly went to get our binoculars, we have what's called Vortex binoculars. These are high-end binoculars, great optical glass. John had began looking at the cloud with those, and he told me, we both went outside. I was trying to find one of the other cameras, scrambling, trying to get one of the other cameras going. "And John said, 'There's a black object moving between the cloud.' And then it was emerging from the cloud. So I grabbed my cell phone and videotaped it. While John was looking at them, we switched. And what we saw was something...originally it resembled a very black, triangular or delta shape to it, or bell shape to it. It had that Delta shape, or triangular shape." Coulthart: "And was this showing up on radar at this stage, that delta shape?" Gerry: "Yes." John: "Yes." Coulthart: "Wow!" John: "Yes, we did have a radar target." Gerry: "We tracked it on radar. On radar, it appears to separate into two more objects, which is quite interesting." Coulthart: "You found something interesting in the frequency, and you can't talk about it, can you? Has the FBI asked you, not to talk about it?" Gerry: "Yes, that's the sensitive part. There was quite a bit of interesting signals, but that goes into signals intelligence, which we can't talk about." Coulthart: "Just let me guess. 1.6 by any chance?" (They all laugh) Donna: "You've been talking to people." Gerry: "No comment." Coulthart: "No, it just fascinates me. Is it 1.6 gigahertz, or megahertz? I'm trying to remember." John: "It's gigahertz. Yeah, I know with Skinwalker Ranch, I know the one, 1.6 seems to come up quite a bit. There's also a three-gigahertz signal, supposedly." Gerry: "There's a few others, too. We'll leave it at that." Coulthart: "No, but it's interesting. It's such a consistent thing, and I'm really interested because all around the world, people are contacting me, talking about 1.6, in particular, but also about three gigahertz. And nobody's explaining it. But often it's an indicator." ~~~From My Bob Fish Blog~~~ Bob Fish: "In that same TS/SCI building cafeteria in El Segundo, I had lunch with a senior USAF NCO who had worked for Project Blue Book in the 1970s (after it had been 'officially disbanded'). He was an ELINT technician (electronic intelligence) who flew in RC-135s from MacDill AFB in Florida. The 'normal' target was Cuba where they did lots of snooping and sometimes challenging the Cubans to turn on radar and other systems. "He said there were times when they were diverted from these missions to track UFOs off the east coast of Florida. His claim was that UFOs had a landing and takeoff spot in the ocean east of Miami, north of Bermuda. He also claimed there was a specific electronic signature (frequency) emanating from them when they were going into or coming out of the water, so they were easy to track. On several occasions they filmed the UFO as it transitioned from water to air or vice versa. High quality film of UFOs is 'out there' somewhere!" (What was the signature? 1.6 gigahertz? 3.0?) ~~~End Bob Fish Excerpt~~~ Coulthart: "And as you say - without giving away the frequency that you detected - you detected a frequency anomaly on your spectrum analyzer. You saw it there. Then you got it on your radar. And then when you visually observed it with the binoculars, the vortex binoculars, you then corroborated that object on the radar as well. So you've got four separate data points to corroborate something anomalous." John: "And a very, very clear visual representation of what was on the radar. The interesting thing I will say that we had observed flights of commercial aircraft at the same time through these lenses, these very clear lenses that we use. The commercial aircraft was extremely detailed, in focus. You can even make out the writing on the on the aircraft. The object itself? No." Gerry: "It was always slightly out of focus for some reason." John: "It was poorly presented." Coulthart: "And you gents would understand, and I'm sure Donna as well, that the Alcubierre-drive principles. That, essentially, if something is coming, if it's warping space time, there's allegedly some kind of plasma or some kind of distortion field around the object. Do you think that might explain what you were seeing? Gerry: That's a possibility." John: "That's a very strong possibility." Gerry: "It's something we're looking into. There was also, there was a shimmer around it. Definitely a possibility of some kind of field effect around it." ~~~ Time Stamps Extremely bright, luminous sphere over the ocean. Not visible to the naked eye. - 13:33 The Black Triangle - 33:31 Orb-Like Object Over Land in Farmingville, N.Y. (Where my sister lives) ~ 58:18 Similar to what @MeaganOurada saw - 1:14:05

🔊 CHURCH: The Feast of Trumpets begins TOMORROW, FRIDAY 9/11–SUNDAY 9/13—and LOOK at the convergence surrounding it this year! Israel at the center. The nations focused on dividing the land. Iran and its bow bending, ready to break! War expanding. Earthquakes. Intense volcanic activity. Signs in the heavens. And all of it converging as the appointed time of the TRUMPET arrives this year on a Sabbath—A DAY OF REST! ALL THE SIGNS ARE NOT QUIETING DOWN—THEY ARE INTENSIFYING! KEEP LOOKING UP!!! 🎺QUICKLY FIRST — WHAT IS THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS? The Feast of Trumpets—Yom Teruahin the Bible—is one of the LORD's seven appointed feasts. It begins on 1 Tishrei, the first day of the seventh month, and God commanded it to be a day of rest, holy assembly, and trumpet blasts: 📖“In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.” Lev 23:24 👉🏼The trumpet was used in Scripture to call God's people together, announce movement of the camps, sound an alarm, and proclaim important occasions. And this year is extra special! 🎺Trumpets begins this Friday at sunset September 11, 2026, and 1 Tishrei falls on a Sabbath—God's day of REST. That isn't extremely rare, but the fact that the appointed time of the trumpet falls on the day of rest immediately makes me think of this verse, Isaiah 26:20: But look at what comes BEFORE: 📖 “Your dead shall live... Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust... And the earth shall cast out the dead.” Is 26:19 Then AFTER: 📖 “Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past.” Is 26:20 And the next verse tells us why: 📖 “For behold, the LORD comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity...” Is 26:21 🔗So, look at the prophetic sequence here: FIRST, resurrection. THEN, “Come, My people”—enter the chambers, hide, and rest. And AFTER that comes the indignation upon the earth. THIS MAKES US THINK ABOUT PAUL: 📖 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.” 1 Thes 4:16–17 Remember originally there were no chapter breaks—so after saying this Paul points directly to the Day of the Lord: 📖 “But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren... you yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the LORD so comes as a thief in the night.” 1 Thes 5:1–2 Look at Paul's train of thought: 👉🏼Trumpet of God 👉🏼 Dead in Christ rise 👉🏼Church caught up 👉🏼Then Paul immediately turns to the Day of the LORD And centuries before Paul, look again at Isaiah's picture: 👉🏼The dead arise 👉🏼“Come, My people” 👉🏼Enter your chambers 👉🏼 Hide until the indignation passes 👉🏼 The LORD comes to punish the inhabitants of the earth THE PARALLEL IS AMAZING! And this year—coincidentally— 1 Tishrei, the first full day of Trumpets—falls on the Sabbath, which is THE DAY OF REST!! I LOVE IT!! NOW — LOOK AT THE WORLD INTO WHICH THIS FEAST IS ARRIVING. This is where things get really interesting!! Because Trumpets 2026 is not arriving in a quiet world by any stretch of the imagination. It is arriving while the convergence we have already been watching seems to be getting LOUDER! 🗓️I posted last week about Joel already, so I'm gonna try to not repeat my self. But remember what Peter said in his inaugural message to the Church at Pentecost, when he pointed directly back to Joel: 📖 “And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, BEFORE the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.” Acts 2:19–20 🔔A QUICK NOTE HERE: Some understand the Day of the LORD as referring only to Armageddon at the end of the Tribulation. I understand it as the 7 year tribulation period of judgment associated with Daniel’s 70th Week—not only its final battle. 👉🏼Paul says the Day of the LORD comes “as a thief in the night,” when people are saying “Peace and safety!” and then “sudden destruction” comes upon them (1 Thes 5:2–3). After seven years of catastrophic judgment, nobody will be saying "peace and safety" as preparing for Armageddon. Back to what I was saying: since I wrote that post last week, the signs haven’t gotten quieter… THEY JUST KEEP PILING ON!!! ⚠️We’re not looking at one volcano and saying, “THIS IS JOEL.” We’re not looking at one earthquake, one war, one eclipse, or one column of smoke and saying, “PROPHECY FULFILLED.” WE’RE JUST LOOKING AT THE CLUSTER. WE ARE LOOKING AT THE CONVERGENCE AND THE PROPHETIC RESEMBLANCE! And look at what has been added to that picture just as we approach Trumpets: 🌋 ANAK KRAKATAU — INDONESIA A continuous eruptive episode lasting approximately 25 hours. Ash sent 50,000 feet into the atmosphere. Jakarta's international airport was forced to close. Nearly 3,000 flights disrupted. 341,000 passengers stranded. When I saw those towering plumes rising, I immediately thought of Joel’s language: “Pillars of smoke.” Fire. Ash. Towering plumes—so massive they were captured from space in NASA satellite imagery. 🔥 AND LOOK AT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN INDONESIA AT THE SAME TIME. From September 1–7 alone, Indonesia's wildfire emissions reached 19.7 MILLION metric tons of CO₂—more than ONE-THIRD of the entire world's wildfire emissions during that period and 273% ABOVE the seasonal average. Authorities are calling this Indonesia's most intense wildfire season in 11 years, with massive haze now affecting millions of people. THE MIDDLE EAST IS NOT CALMING DOWN EITHER: ISRAEL — IRAN — AND NOW THE CONFLICT IS WIDENING: Last Thursday Prime Minister Netanyahu said: 🎙️“The achievements are immense, but there is still more to complete. I mean, first and foremost, the toppling of the regime. This regime in Iran — its end is near. It is weak, it is fighting for its life, it is faltering.” 🔔Remember what we're watching and waiting for. We're watching for that Jeremiah 49 “bow of Elam” to be broken, potentially opening a window of peace and security for Israel that could set the stage for Ezekiel 38. And as of September 10, the conflict is spreading even further. Iran reports attacks on ships near the Strait of Hormuz, while Houthi advances and attacks are putting the chokepoint Bab el-Mandeb at risk. Think about the geography: ⚠️ STRAIT OF HORMUZ — The world’s #1 oil chokepoint: DISRUPTED ⚠️ BAB EL-MANDEB — A critical global shipping chokepoint: AT RISK ⚠️ IRAN — ISRAEL — U.S. — HOUTHIS — SAUDI ARABIA THE WAR IS NOT CONTRACTING, IT IS WIDENING! AND THERE IS SOMETHING EVEN BIGGER HAPPENING AROUND ISRAEL RIGHT NOW. 🗡️As we approach Trumpets, two days ago, Sep 8th. international pressure for a TWO-STATE SOLUTION is intensifying again. The UK, France and Canada have announced new measures to protect that outcome—and they plan to take that effort directly to the UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY later this month. And THAT immediately brings us back to Joel once again. Because Joel doesn't only speak about blood, fire, pillars of smoke and signs in the heavens. He also tells us what happens when the NATIONS gather concerning ISRAEL: 📖 “I will also gather all nations… on account of My people, My heritage Israel… THEY HAVE ALSO DIVIDED UP MY LAND.” Joel 3:2 👉🏼THAT is the part of the convergence I don't want us to miss. Israel is not somewhere on the sidelines of this picture—ISRAEL IS AT THE CENTER. What makes this Trumpets season so extraordinary is THESE PARTICULAR PIECES coming together clearly at the same time. And THEN, on top of that geopolitical picture, look at what has been happening in the earth and the heavens. LET'S ZOOM OUT FOR A SECOND HERE. In just the last four weeks we have watched: 🌎 Major earthquakes — Colombia, Indonesia and Peru ⚫August 12 — Total solar eclipse 🔴August 27–28 — Deep partial lunar eclipse 🔥 September 1–7 — Indonesia wildfire emissions running 273% above the seasonal average 🌋 September 4–6 — Anak Krakatau’s extraordinary 25-hour eruptive episode 🇮🇱 September 8th: Growing international pressure for a TWO-STATE SOLUTION involving Israel’s land ⚔️ September 10th: Israel-Iran conflict continuing to widen across the region THIS IS THE VERY TIGHT CLUSTER WE’RE LOOKING AT!! And now, right as we arrive at TRUMPETS, listen to what Joel says: 📖“Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the LORD is coming, for it is at hand.” Joel 2:1 📜THE SAME PROPHET who spoke of blood, fire, pillars of smoke, the darkened sun and the blood moon ALSO CRIES: BLOW THE TRUMPET AND SOUND THE ALARM!! 👉🏼 Again—earthquakes happen, volcanoes erupt, fires burn, wars happen… ONE EVENT IS NOT OUR POINT—THE CONVERGENCE IS! We are not declaring Joel fulfilled. We are WATCHING, just as Scripture tells us to watch. We are watching the birth pains Jesus described while also seeing striking echoes of Joel’s prophetic language—and THAT is INCREDIBLY fascinating and worth paying attention to!!! 🔊Church: The Feast of Trumpets is here! Trumpets CALLED THE ASSEMBLY. Trumpets SIGNALED THE CAMP TO MOVE. Trumpets SOUNDED THE ALARM. And now the appointed time of the TRUMPET has arrived while the convergence we have been watching is not getting quieter… IT IS GETTING LOUDER! Earthquakes. Fire. Bloodshed. Pillars of smoke. Signs in the heavens. THE PRESSURE OF NATIONS WANTING TO DIVIDE ISRAEL. And the “bow of Elam” looking closer than ever to breaking! Scripture never told us to sleep through the signs—it told us to WATCH!!! So let’s KEEP WATCHING, KEEP PRAYING, KEEP PREACHING THE GOSPEL!! SOON WE WILL HEAR THE TRUMPET OF GOD, ENTER OUR CHAMBERS, AND FINALLY ENTER OUR DAY OF REST!! KEEP LOOKING UP!! Maranatha! 🤍 Come, Lord Jesus, COME!!!

Elon Musk just confirmed the most INSANE IPO in history. SpaceX is going public in 2026. $1.5 TRILLION valuation. Raising $30+ billion. That's the biggest IPO ever made. Beating Saudi Aramco's $29 billion record from 2019. But here's what everyone's missing: This isn't about space tourism or Mars missions. Elon is literally about to win the entire AI race. And 99% of people have no idea how... Here's the problem killing every AI company right now: POWER. Oracle just reported earnings. They burned through $12 BILLION in one quarter building data centers. Their free cash flow? NEGATIVE $10 billion. Revenue missed estimates. Stock crashed 11%. Microsoft, Amazon, Google all scrambling to find enough electricity for AI training. The brutal math: The US generates 490 gigawatts of total power. AI is projected to need 123 gigawatts by 2035. That's a QUARTER of the entire electrical grid. Just for artificial intelligence. Goldman Sachs says AI energy demand could jump 165% by 2030. There is literally not enough power on Earth to run AI at the scale these companies are promising. Every data center needs massive cooling systems. Billions of gallons of water per year. Insane energy costs. And the infrastructure can't keep up. Elon's solution? Stop building on Earth entirely. SpaceX is building data centers in SPACE. Not a concept. Not 10 years out. Literally starting in 2026. They're upgrading Starlink V3 satellites to carry AI computing chips. Each satellite gets 24/7 solar power. No clouds. No night. No weather disruptions. No grid bottlenecks. And the insane part is that Starship can deliver 300 to 500 gigawatts of solar-powered AI satellites into orbit every single year. At 300 gigawatts per year, the AI computing power in space would exceed the entire U.S. economy's total electricity consumption within two years. Just from satellites. Processing in orbit. While Oracle is begging banks for loans to finish data centers and OpenAI is stuck in circular funding arrangements with Microsoft, Elon already owns everything: The rockets. The satellites. The launch infrastructure. The AI company (xAI). He doesn't need to ask utilities for permission. Doesn't need grid approvals from local governments. Doesn't need to build nuclear plants or wait for clean energy. He just launches. And everyone else is scrambling to catch up: Jeff Bezos sees it. Blue Origin announced they're building their own orbital data centers. Google just launched "Project Suncatcher" with plans to deploy AI satellites by 2027. Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, literally BOUGHT an entire rocket company (Relativity Space) just to compete in this space. But they're all 3+ years behind Elon. SpaceX already has 6,000+ Starlink satellites in orbit. The infrastructure is built. The $30 billion from the IPO? Going straight into scaling orbital compute. SpaceX revenue is jumping from $15 billion in 2025 to $24 billion in 2026. Most of that from Starlink. Now add space-based AI infrastructure on top. Here's why this matters: Whoever controls orbital computing controls the AI revolution. And there's only ONE company on Earth with fully reusable rockets that can launch at the scale required. Jensen Huang, Nvidia's CEO, called space data centers "a dream." Translation: Nvidia is screwed if Elon actually pulls this off. Because if SpaceX succeeds, every AI company on the planet becomes Elon's customer. OpenAI needs compute? Running on SpaceX satellites. Google needs more capacity? Renting orbital infrastructure. Microsoft needs power? Paying SpaceX for launch and compute access. Elon won't just be in the AI race. He'll own the entire track everyone else is running on. The $1.5 trillion valuation sounds crazy until you realize what he's actually building. It's not a rocket company. It's the infrastructure layer for the next 50 years of computing. People calling it overvalued have no idea what's coming.

Sunday night in Los Angeles changed my understanding of what a natural disaster can do to a modern city. The wildfires created conditions that made the familiar streets feel like another world entirely. When I heard how bad things were getting, I loaded thousands of Americana survival kits into my Cybertruck and headed straight for the fire zones. As night fell, the devastation became surreal. Houses engulfed in flames. Entire neighborhoods looked like a war zone, with stretches of eight, nine, or more houses in a row burned down to a crisp, as if hit by a rocket launch. The smoke lingered heavily in the air in the parts of Los Angeles I was in, creating an eerie, muted atmosphere that made the city feel unrecognizable at times. We drove through what felt like an abandoned town, completely blacked out due to the grid appearing to go down in that area, the familiar streets of this part of LA transformed into something unrecognizable. The Cybertruck's durability gave us confidence as we navigated streets covered in debris and ash, a small comfort amidst the chaos. In the distance, I kept catching silhouettes of people moving in the haze. I wasn't sure if they were people needing help, people who didn’t need help but were running, or looters taking advantage of the chaos. But at any mass casualty event, you feel something else too—maybe the wandering of souls, or hopefully their ascension. In that moment, it felt like the silhouette of Death itself was walking around, and that none of us were truly safe. The military presence was massive. There were what looked like MRAPs with strobe lights on each side, possibly searching for bodies, moving slowly down vacant, empty streets in the black, ashy, hazy blackout zones. The sheer scale of the response was both reassuring and unsettling. It felt like a police state during an armageddon, with the military and police first responders performing incredibly under the circumstances. Yet, the optics of it were shocking, as if the world had turned upside down. But it was the silence that really got to me. Where I was in Los Angeles had gone completely quiet except for the distant crackle of flames and the low rumble of military vehicles. In a city that never sleeps, this silence felt wrong. We came across a gas station that had become an impromptu emergency center. Someone had set up a makeshift generator, throughout the night and into the early hours of the morning, it became a hub for the community. A taco truck had parked there, giving out free food to everyone. People were collecting shoes, clothes, and gasoline. There we distributed the last of our survival and first aid kits. What struck me most was seeing people coming together as Americans, helping each other for no reason other than they were just fellow Americans. The footage we captured that night doesn't do it justice. Cameras can't capture the disorientation of trying to navigate through near-total darkness, or that gut feeling when you have to decide in an instant whether to approach an unclear figure in the shadows. The night revealed two contrasting truths about Los Angeles: the frightening speed with which a modern city can descend into darkness, and the remarkable way communities rise to meet that darkness with light. Throughout the chaos, off-the-record first responders and residents alike shared their deep frustration and heartbreak over Governor Gavin Newsom's response to the fires. Across party lines, people expressed anger at the perceived lack of coordination and urgency, criticizing his handling of the situation as ineffective and tone-deaf. It was clear that this sentiment was widespread, cutting through typical political divides in a way I hadn’t witnessed before. Leaders have as their first and most sacred duty the responsibility to unite the people who follow them—to keep them whole, to keep them together. But Gavin Newsom had done the opposite, systematically, over years, using the media and from almost every podium. It’s absolutely evil because it’s a perfect inversion of a leader’s duty. He’s certainly tried harder at this than at any other task. He hasn’t focused on managing the economy, paving roads, or preparing for a fire everyone knew could come. He’s done just the opposite—so focused they have been on making us hate each other. I always wonder why one of the best states has the worst leaders? No state deserves leaders like him. Why do the people with the longest track record of failure have total control over the rest of the state, which is beautiful and filled with great people? How does that work? That doesn’t look like democracy to me. A few days later, the most interesting take I have is that if you experience America through your phone, which I hate to admit is mostly how I experience of America, you really get a distorted picture of it. They want you to get the sense that the country is at war with itself, that people hate each other. But when you see what just happened in Los Angeles and how ordinary Americans came together extraordinarily you realize Americans secretly don’t really hate each other. And yet, they have been convinced of the opposite, systematically, over decades by terrible leaders. And up until this past weekend, what people, including me, forget to consider is how much good there is in the world. Good that makes no sense. The love between people who don’t know each other, who have nothing obviously in common except their Americanness, their citizenship here. People who gain nothing by being kind to each other—who are, in fact, encouraged not to be kind, yet are anyway...

I'm starting to get a little excited about this... "Everyone in the room gasped. Even the staffers just gasped when they saw that video. There's not a single aerial thing that can do something like that." ~Burlison 🛸 Disclosure Soon? Plus: Burlison Complained to the White House About Not Getting Recognition. Does He Have a Point? 🛸 (I appreciate the honesty from Rep. Eric Burlison but I still have some questions and comments, which are in ( ) ). Burlison: "I know that there's more to come because the White House called me and said, 'Hey, can you talk nice about this release of videos?' And I said, 'I don't even know what's in it. You guys have not engaged with us, at all.'" (Whomever is in charge of communicating with Congress on this issue needs to step up their game. I mean, Burlison has been one of the most vocal Reps. and they're not giving him a heads up on such an important, initial release? That's political, and common-sense, malpractice.) Burlison: "And I'm probably spilling the tea here a little bit, but... And they said, 'You're right, and we're now at a point where we need you, because we don't really...you've kind of done the recon on this, we don't really know where to go...take the investigation from here. Like, we kind of know where to ask and we have videos that we're still declassifying, we have content that we're still declassifying. But as far as like, where to take the investigation, who do you think we should talk to?' "And I'm like, 'You're really asking me? Of all... You're asking me who to go talk to? So I gave them a (audio cut out so I'll try my best) list of people that I've always wanted (to talk to) but they never really talked to me because they're all protected under their non-disclosure agreements and, you know, all of that kind of stuff." (If the White House wants any of those folks to talk to them, involve Trump, and/or Vance and Hegseth. That may convince them to risk it and start talking. And members of Congress need to do whatever they can to get protection, amnesty and anything else whistleblowers need to feel comfortable enough to come forward. Make it happen!) Burlison: "And so, I said, 'But I wanna...I wanna be, you gotta bring me in because I've been doing all of this work with no recognition, and so, if now, things are going to start getting real and real disclosure is gonna happen, I deserve to be a part of this.' And so, that's kind of where things are." (People may get on Burlison's case for being worried about recognition but can you blame him? He should be getting lots of praise, directly from Trump, IN PUBLIC (which will help his re-election efforts), and be given as much information as Rubio has in the National-Security-Advisor position. Maybe make Burlison and Grusch the co-UAP Czars?) Burlison: "And last night, we had about an hour and a half briefing with AARO, where we saw about 30 UAP videos. Some of them are incredible." (This is really encouraging but, as always, I wanna see some of these videos with my own eyes and see if any of them get the masses and media talking about this 24/7. That's when we'll know we're getting closer to more and more disclosure. But what about Disclosure, capital D? Meaning, will we learn about any alleged crashes, bodies, craft or analysis about intent and origin? I don't know.) Burlison: "And I'll describe the two of [the videos I saw]. One of them is of an object that is flying at a very aggressive speed, I don't know how fast. And then suddenly just instantaneously goes from whatever speed is flying... And my guess is it's flying with the wind, probably 80 miles an hour in the atmosphere, and then suddenly just goes like, Mach speed. I mean, it just instantly takes off." (Mach 1 = 767 mph. Again, we need to see this video to figure out if it's actually going as fast as Burlison claims. And if it's released, it would be nice to have data from more than one sensor.) Burlison: "It was one of those moments where everyone in the room gasped. Everyone. Even the staffers who are like, the most skeptical people in the room just gasped when they saw that video. Because there's not a single aerial thing that can do something like that, that can pull that off. (This gives me hope that future videos will contain better footage. Just how much better? Stay tuned, I guess. I've heard things hyped privately in the past and they usually fall flat and don't get the attention of the masses when made public.) Burlison: "The other video was one of a submarine, I think it's a Russian sub that we're filming. And there are about three objects that are buzzing around this Russian sub that the camera operator - who's supposed to be watching the Russian sub - suddenly starts realizing, I've gotta be watching these objects." Kim St. Onge: "I love how passionate you are about UFOs, by the way, which is why we trust you with all our UFO updates." (They then proceeded to cut off his UFO talk and changed the subject. SMDFH!!! Hope we get to see lots more videos!)
