Doug Pinkham

When our grand dog Bennett can’t find anyone to play fetch, he plays a game he created that we call Lifeguard! He INTENTIONALLY knocks the ball into the water and runs around frantically declaring an emergency. Then he finally jumps in and rescues the ball. Over and over again.

@TheFungi669 @NormOrnstein He looks like Flattop sleeping while Dick Tracy escapes!

Karoline Leavitt: “No one has more energy and stamina than President Trump.”

@gelliottmorris @LarrySabato Trump has a remarkable record of alienating nearly every demographic group through his actions — from rural voters (Medicaid cuts) to veterans (VA cuts) to Hispanics (ICE actions and rhetoric) to anti-war MAGA voters (war in Iran). It’s as if he placed a bet against himself! 🤔

@Spidamar__ @Mollyploofkins Good point. It’s not every day that people get to see a bull horn to the rectum.

@Acyn How about The Donald J. Trump Gulf and Country Club?

Kudlow: The US will control The Persian Gulf, which probably should be The Arabian Gulf or The Trump Gulf.

@business This makes me wonder if Trump’s son-in-law Jared has ever wagered against the success of Trump’s political and economic moves.

An asset-management fund in the Equilor group of companies part-owned by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s son-in-law profited from financial-market bets on the strongman losing power bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@RealLyndaCarter I think Lynda Carter would make a fine president.

This nation does not need a thug in the pulpit. Not in the White House, on the news, or in a place of worship. I’m glad to see Tucker Carlson apologize. He should. He was complicit. At least he will be able to speak the truth to his children and grandchildren.

@JoshKraushaar This is why Trump is one of the most anti-business presidents in U.S. history. Companies — both large and small — need a stable business environment before they make investments and hire workers. Presidents who create uncertainty fail as leaders.

David Ignatius: "Given the stakes, you’d think that Trump would want de-escalation. But that’s not the way he operates. He likes disorder and destabilization — and seems ready to keep extending the state of uncertainty" washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…

@morgfair @Shaunoon I agree that he’ll die — in fact, many will die — if coal ever leads the world in global electricity production.

That’s why you shouldn’t be Secretary of Energy…

@Acosta @rumpfshaker “Verge of Collapse” is not only a great name for a rock band, it would also be a fitting slogan for the rest of Trump’s presidency.

@CesspoolOnline @BarbaraComstock I don’t know. Even with those wild shades, this house gnat seems pretty focused.

Megyn Kelly: "Axios reporting today that Trump is bored of this war and wants it over — whatever. Maybe it wasn't the best thing to start if you didn't have the patience to actually see it through…Trump has moved on to other things because he has the attention span of a gnat."

@YpsiGal @woff253 At least we have leaders in our defense and intelligence agencies that take a results-driven, sober approach to . . er . . uh . . a RESULTS-DRIVEN approach to their work!

Ok this is astounding 😳 We would be caught with our pants down if a country decided to attack the United States.

@DavidAFrench @NormOrnstein Ten years ago this month — on Easter Sunday — Paula White peddled “resurrection seeds” to followers for the bargain price of $1,144. If you think that sounds a little steep, keep in mind that White reported during her broadcast that the price was set by God Himself.

This is absolute nonsense (by this reasoning any time you fight against a president you're fighting against the plan of God), but it's also dangerous nonsense. Trump is plainly absorbing the idea that God's on his side -- and he already had a grandiose sense of self.

@MikeHudema @Shaunoon When we visited Nosara, Costa Rico, several years ago they were in the midst of a campaign to encourage people to report homes that weren’t managing sewage properly. They gave us a bumper sticker that said “NO SHIT, NOSARA!”

Costa Rica, once home to rampant logging, has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done. Protect people and the planet. #ActOnClimate #biodiversity #deforestation #rewilding #solutions

look what I just did with @grok lol

🦔Goldman Sachs reports that companies are blowing past their AI inference budgets by orders of magnitude, with inference costs in engineering now approaching 10% of total headcount costs and potentially reaching parity with salaries within several quarters. KPMG surveyed 2,100 senior leaders and found US companies plan to spend an average of $178 million on AI over the next 12 months, with Asia-Pacific firms budgeting $245 million and EMEA $157 million. The two reports together show companies are spending more than planned and intend to spend even more. My Take Inference costs approaching headcount parity is an extraordinary number that most finance teams did not model when they approved their AI strategies twelve months ago. The compute crunch, electrical component shortages, and GPU spot prices up 48% in two months are all flowing into corporate operating costs faster than anyone budgeted for, and Goldman's trajectory suggests it accelerates from here. What I find hard to reconcile is that $178 million average sitting alongside enterprise data showing eight in ten workers are either avoiding AI tools or not using them at all. Companies are committing to nine-figure inference budgets while their own employees aren't using what's already been deployed. I've watched this dynamic build all year and my honest read is that a significant portion of this spending is driven by competitive fear rather than demonstrated returns. Nobody wants to be the company that didn't invest in AI when everyone else did. That's how bubbles get funded, and at some point boards are going to demand a number that justifies it. Hedgie🤗
