Hmm — and just like that, everything old would be new again.
Biden effectively banned Chinese EVs and now Trump is banning Chinese humanoid robots. Teslas secret weapon has turned out to be the U.S. government banning their competitors. A ban on Chinese open weight AI models feels inevitable in this climate.
“Would-be future American leaders who recognize the value of allies and think all will be forgiven when the White House has a new occupant need to … create the option for the United States to make a different choice in the future by speaking out now.” Yep. Yep, yep, yep.
Oh, huh — a blindsiding development, one that surely no one could see co—

Preach. 🙌
Gravel InfluencerA final thought: What's happening with Haitians and TPS is a microcosm of how our entire immigration system is designed to criminalize people. This administration is pointing to a bullshit Supreme Court ruling as evidence that Haitians are criminals -- all because their status arbitrarily changed.
Said this about one of Douthat's colleagues, but it's true for him too:
Greg Greene (he/him/his)What’s ironic is that Bret Stephens, whatever he tells himself, earned little of the success he has. Bret is a poster child for how the most pervasive brand of affirmative action in U.S. discourse is quota hiring for middle-wit conservatives.

Paragraph *16* in an article decrying that Mamdani did not use one of his nine appointments to choose a Jewish attorney to a judicial selection panel. "Mr. Calvello said Justice Leventhal was rejected because he had represented Ghislaine Maxwell, the associate of Jeffrey Epstein."

There's a throughline of wealthy white magnates, like Murdoch or Musk — even ones who, as in Lütke's case, have never obtained U.S. citizenship — presuming the standing to opine about who counts as properly American, and … no. Just no. That should draw our disdain.
We all might as well get ready for it: "I'm James O'Keefe. I'm David Daleiden. And this … is '60 Minutes.'" (*tck-tck-tck!*)
Weiss fired journalists for airing what she saw as in-house disagreements but is fine with journalists doing undercover sting operations on other organizations. Transparency for thee, but not for me!
The first time I read this yesterday I thought the second name in the post was "Nick Denton," and the misreading left me reeling.
Jon PassantinoBari Weiss & Nick Bilton are busy trying to recruit talent for their revamped "60 Minutes," conducting dozens of screen tests. And CBS News leaders "have also expressed a desire to air hidden camera-style investigative pieces" on the show. The scoop in @status.news www.status.news/p/60-minutes...
