AI spend on lobbying is going through the roof in Washington. @ft reports OpenAI has almost doubled lobbying expenditure in the first half of this year, while Anthropic spent close to three times as much.
This comes as political battles loom over regulation, new models, thirsty and power hungry data centres, and getting pro-industry policies adopted.

Finally, #Schiff talked at length about Trump's ultimate #corruption —
Suing the #IRS (so essentially suing himself since he puts people in power in the IRS) to create a "slush fund" to reward those loyal to him, incl. violent #Jan6 offenders.
Schiff said the "grand total" of Trump's "Top 10" acts of corruption is ~$6 billion to American taxpayers. 👀
Schiff also said that #trump bought #NVIDIA stock BEFORE he approved the company's major overseas sales deal 👀🤯

#Schiff then went into detail about the #corruption behind the #Trump family's "World Liberty Financial," particularly related to crypto and the building of Trump's golf courses overseas.
(Note: All of Trump's business ventures are not held in a blind trust)

#Schiff talked at length about the plane that #Qatar gave #trump and how trump plans to keep that plane (in his presidential library). He mentioned how American taxpayers have had to pay billions to fix the plane up to presidential protection standards.
He also talked about how he sued law firms and now has the lawyers working pro bono for him.

#Schiff detailed the cost of #corruption for Trump's ballroom — hundreds of millions of taxpayer money being wasted as companies that give $ for the ballroom project and are in return given preference for federal contracts (when they might not be the best companies for the work) and have federal investigations into them closed.

#Schiff also talked about Trump's meme coin that helped him become "hundreds of millions of dollars" richer (investors of his meme coin lost bigly).
#Trump also "auctioned off" seats to a crypto dinner he held (related to his meme coin) AFTER he had became the US president for his second term.
"More money for trump, more fraud for you. This is the cost of corruption," Schiff said.

#Schiff said that #trump used the leverage that he had over the social media companies to "help or hurt their businesses" and extorted the social media companies "to the tune of $60 million." 👀
The cost of Trump's corruption with the social media companies to the American public is "more false claims, more false information, more social harms from an unregulated social media, and potentially more incitement of violence around our elections."

#Schiff said that #trump has received ~$60 million in "big tech settlements" after suing big social media companies Meta, Twitter, and YouTube (he had been suspended from these platforms for "conduct related to the attack he incited on the Capitol"), then settling with the companies.
"One by one, these companies paid up — to him personally and to his pet projects like the golden ballroom" via "creative accounting."

#Schiff detailed more #corruption surrounding #trump including pay-to-play with businesses, media companies, law firms, and other countries. He referenced how Trump unilaterally made a nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia (yesterday), and mentioned how Saudi Arabia "has been phenomenally generous to the Trump family business, to the president and his sons, and to his son-in-law, Jared #Kushner, in particular, in whom they invested a cool $2 billion." 👀

The Karma of the Beautiful Game: How Spain’s 2026 Victory Rewrote the Script for Trump and the Aggies
In many ways, Spain’s 2026 triumph stands as a glorious, inescapable metaphor for what happens when performative ego, systemic meddling, and brute gamesmanship run smack into the unyielding wall of competence and poise. -

IF THEY ARE ADMITTING #Felon47 made $2.2 BILLION JUST LAST YEAR while in office (while #MAGAts swoon over his selflessness for not taking a salary), just imagine how much he's REALLY profiting off the presidency thru his flagrant #grifting, #SelfDealing, #PayToPlay schemes, #SellingPardons and flat-out #bribery.
But... but... #HunterBiden! 🤬

Why bother to actually review case law and write a real opinion when you can just cut and paste from the guy who gave you a cushy bribe?

Controversy has engulfed #Wyoming’s state legislature after a conservative activist was photographed👉 handing checks to Republican lawmakers on the state house floor,
in an incident that has highlighted intra-conservative divisions and the role of money in the Cowboy state’s politics.The political storm started on 9 February, when Karlee Provenza, a Democratic lawmaker,
took a photo showing Rebecca #Bextel, a conservative activist and committeewoman for the Teton county Republican party,
handing a check to Darin #McCann,
a Republican representative, on the legislative floor.
Marlene #Brady, another Republican representative, stands in the photo’s background, a similar piece of paper pinched between her fingers.“You have a person from the richest county in the country coming down to Cheyenne to hand out checks on the house floor,” Provenza said. “I have never seen something so egregious.”

"Melania is the first movie Ratner...has made since he was publicly accused of sexual harassment and assault by six women"
'One person familiar with the production estimated that some two-thirds of the crew members who worked on the film in New York had requested not to have their names formally credited on the documentary. A separate person who will be credited on the film said that, after experiencing the first year of Trump’s second term, they now wish they had not put their name on it. “I’m much more alarmed now than I was a year ago,” that person said'
