RT @vtg2: An @Eleanor_Mueller question! Asks Fed Chair Warsh about timing for results from the five policy task forces he formed. Warsh says some but not all groups will probably meet year-end target.

“That $40 million that Fairshake spent [in 2024] moved the needle zero … and they’re doing it again"

RT @ashleyrgold: NEW from me: Britain’s AI testing agency outguns US Britain wants to pour another £120 million — roughly $160 million — into a government lab that tests the world’s most powerful AI models, an infusion of cash that alone is more than 10 times the annual budget of its US counterpart. It contrasts sharply with the approach in the US, where federal efforts to evaluate AI are receiving far less cash and are shared by different parts of government.

RT @nicholaswu12: New from SELMA, Texas: both James Talarico and Ken Paxton are attacking each other as more beholden to California than Texas Paxton: “California has two senators; it doesn’t need a third from here” Talarico: “Ken Paxton is not one of us. He’s not even from Texas.”

RT @burgessev: New: Iowa Democrat Josh Turek is running a radical Senate campaign ... to the center - Opposes impeachment - Supports Laken Riley Act - Criticizes Dems for blocking Husted data center bill and farm bill - Ticks off all the ways he can work with Trump “Politically, the term moderate can be pejorative. And I say that I’m proudly a moderate," he says in an interview. His opponent, Rep. Ashley Hinson, says Turek is "going to be voting with Chuck Schumer 100% of the time." But she too is running toward the center, distancing herself from Trump on Iran, Russia and Vivek ad Turek: Hinson’s “masquerading. I mean that’s a problem for me. I’m genuinely a bipartisan person,” he added. “She has been partisan. … Just be who you are.” On the throwback race in Iowa, where “They expect us to represent Iowa interests and not just the interests of whoever’s president of the United States," according to Chuck Grassley -->

RT @ShelbyTalcott: New: The GOP is divided over what “America First” means for the US-Israel relationship, and the debate could become a 2028 fault line. A deeper look at the factions, from staunchly pro-Israel Republicans to the Tucker wing to those in between:

RT @Eleanor_Mueller: News: Trump could sign an executive order on housing affordability as soon as 3 PM today, I'm told. ICYMI, we scooped this AM that officials were at odds over how to proceed: A draft seen by Semafor would make it easier for some homeowners to cancel their mortgage insurance; create an interagency task force on manufactured housing; allow more homeowners to refinance without title insurance; and direct the Agriculture and VA departments to lower interest rates for single-family home loans. @ScotsmanGuide first reported the talks.

RT @publicroad: Christianity Today has seen about half its staff quit or laid off in the last 14 mos. Former employees told me that new business leaders have intervened in editorial decisions & are effectively abandoning the outlet's commitment to independent journalism.

RT @semaforben: Everybody loves state capitalism, @Eleanor_Mueller reports

RT @scottlincicome: Of course, of course: "Trump turned the government into an investor. Democrats have shopping plans, too." "We’re through the looking glass" "The sky’s the limit" "The Trump administration has opened up Pandora’s box"

RT @Eleanor_Mueller: NEW: It'd be legally and politically difficult to wind down the Trump administration's equity stakes — but don't expect Democrats to try. Former administration officials floated using them to rein in AI; shrink defense spending; box out China; and more. "We're through the looking glass," one told me.

If you’re wondering how Mississippi entered the Senate map discussion, you’ve simply gotta read @burgessev, who was onto this race in MARCH.

RT @daveweigel: Husted says this as Vance defends the ad and says he’s sick of the Republicans who are criticizing it instead of focusing on winning.
