I enjoyed appearing on Inside the Issues @IssuesOn1 to discuss the Google antitrust case, the Anthropic and Meta AI/copyright cases, and more. Here’s an excerpt from the 9-minute interview.

@mitchellisdumb @FoxNews The Q&A wasn't canceled; attendees were required to submit their questions beforehand.
English
@GregoryMcNeal @FoxNews What I see in that document is a sincere desire to ask the speaker hard questions. A desire which was thwarted when the organizers cancelled the Q&A just moments before the event began.
Many of us were there to ask real, substantive questions. The organizers wouldn't allow it.

No ICE, No KKK, No Fascist U.S.A.”
NEW VIDEO shows profanity-laced chants filling the air outside UCLA while protesters inside heckle a DHS attorney speaking to law students.
The agitators interrupted the conservative campus event by calling the guest speaker a “Nazi” and staging a walking out mid-speech.
English
The planning matters because UCLA's policy for major events states that "protests may not be so disruptive as to silence the invited speaker from communicating"
The planning and coordination show their knowledge of the rules, days in advance, yet they nevertheless acted to violate the policy.
English
I was the moderator for this discussion. The protests were planned days in advance and coordinated on Signal and Whatsapp. They started disrupting before the introductions were complete, they weren’t there to hear, listen, or question, they were there to disrupt in a coordinated manner.

@JoeySchmittPhD @FoxNews UCLA's policy for major events sates that "protests may not be so disruptive as to silence the invited speaker from communicating"
The planning and coordination show their intent, days in advance, to violate the policy.
English
@GregoryMcNeal @FoxNews Are protests only valid if they're not planned or organized?
I understand opposing protests at events like this, but I don't understand why you're emphasizing that they were organized and planned ahead of time.
English
What happened at @UCLA_law undermines a university’s basic function.
Students have every right to object, question, and peacefully protest invited speakers. But sustained disruption preventing others from hearing a speaker has no place at a university committed to free inquiry.
We’ll be watching UCLA’s response.

@YitZionist @FedSocUCLA @DHSgov We did our best to have a thoughtful discussion, unfortunately, some audience members were not there to have such a discussion, but instead were there to disrupt the event. I appreciate the work @FedSocUCLA put in and I felt the security from @UCLA was top notch.
English
Truly abhorrent and unimaginable behavior today at the @FedSocUCLA event that hosted a @DHSgov lawyer. Leftist students repeatedly disrupted the event, yelled profanities, shouted, made their phones ping incessantly, and eventually stormed out to a rally that violated all time, place, and manner restrictions. These students can’t handle @FedSoc event about the law, but will remain students at @UCLA_Law and
eventually be admitted to the Bar. It is a damning indictment on higher education that students behave so despicably.
English
I was the moderator for this event. They were coordinating for days in advance to disrupt it, using two separate chats on WhatsApp and Signal. Their interruptions began before me or the speaker were even introduced. The walkout was preplanned and coordinated with one of the organizers signaling to everyone to walk out at the same time, in fact signing up for a walk out was one of the options in their WhatsApp chat in addition to being disruptive, heckling, etc. These are not thoughtful law students who disagreed with what they heard, these are people who walked in looking to make a scene.
English
Some little punks tried this when I went to speak at UVA Law FedSoc, but school security cooperated with me in shutting down disruption during Q&A.
Conservative campus speakers must sadly now expect this nonsense, and prepare accordingly.

@malquiste @brianlfrye i’m not wondering. They had a Signal and WhatsApp group going for days before the event and people signed up to agree to walk out at a specific time. The article is trying to frame it like it was spontaneous, but the reality is that it was all preplanned.
English
Disappointing. They should have asked a speaker to make a formal response. FedSoc pays extra for it.

@JonathanTurley It was in fact organized on Signal and WhatsApp days before the event. They weren’t responding to anything that was said, their plan all along was to disrupt, and their “walk out” was planned theater.
English
...The students have every right to protest outside of the room. However, this was an organized effort to prevent others from hearing from the speaker. foxnews.com/politics/watch…
English
A Federalist Society event was disrupted last night by law students spewing profanity and using their phones to drown out a speaker. foxnews.com/politics/watch… These students are clearly shown in the videotape in the organized effort. So what is UCLA going to do about this?...

My Claude Design Personal OS video keeps being shared around.
I'm hardly tagged in these, and still boggles my mind why people would download and reupload content instead of just reposting/quote posting.
Some things they keep getting wrong:
1. The dashboard is a Design Prototype.
2. The dashboard is created without a design system, so probably looks similar to other creations on Claude Design.
3. This version has no live data in it, it's just a design. I've managed to hook up my calendar + projects, but no health data or Spotify yet.
CyrilXBT@cyrilXBT
SOMEONE JUST BUILT A PERSONAL AI DASHBOARD WITH CLAUDE AND IT DOES NOT FEEL LIKE A TOOL. It feels like an operating system for their entire life. One screen. Their calendar. Their tasks. Their goals. Their content pipeline. Their finances. Their health metrics. All connected. All updated in real time. All queryable in plain English. Not ten apps talking past each other. One intelligent surface that knows everything and surfaces what matters. They described what they wanted to Claude Design. Claude built the entire interface. Then they connected it to Opus 4.7 as the reasoning layer. Now instead of opening five apps to answer one question they just ask the dashboard. This is what personal computing looks like when the interface finally understands you. The people building their own AI OS right now will look back at this moment the way the first iPhone users looked back at 2007. You are early.

This is insane.
The $1.5T U.S. defense budget lays out $75B for drones.
The combined market cap of U.S. pure play drone primes like $AVEX $AVAV $KRATOS is $27B.
Bloomberg@business
The Pentagon’s largest-ever budget request earmarks $75 billion for drones and technologies to counter them, mainly for a massive increase for a little-known office working with US commandos, according to defense officials bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

The Pentagon's Departmental Autonomous Warfighting Group (DAWG) was formed late last year with a $225 million budget. For 2027 they are requesting $54.6 billion. DAWG intends to unify all US autonomous operations under their command; land, sea, and air.

I will say the faculty in attendance were not supporters of the speaker, but were supportive of the event and the attempt to have a discussion/exchange of ideas. They seemed embarrassed by the student conduct and the lack of maturity. The Dean was also very hospitable and the police/security did the best they could. The problem is that the UC system’s policies don’t really account for these types of disturbances and heckling.
English
But hiring a single conservative might endanger students (or so one member of the Faculty told me).
