Ben Gvir says Israel will not “allow” Trump to make deal with Iran 🤔

$HOOD - ROBINHOOD LETS AI TRADE STOCKS AND MAKE PURCHASES Robinhood Markets is rolling out a feature that lets customers delegate investing and credit-card spending decisions to AI agents. Users can connect tools like Anthropic’s Claude or Cursor to a dedicated account where the AI can place stock trades, manage portfolios, and execute spending tasks within set limits and alerts. For credit cards, AI agents can search for deals, book travel, and secure tickets using a virtual Gold card, while users retain control through spending caps, approvals, and instant notifications. For now, the system is limited to stock trading, with options and crypto support planned later.

It has been apparent to me for quite a while that Pakistan as a mediator is more than problematic. Their animosity towards Israel is long standing.    It is undeniable that Iranian military aircraft are being housed on Pakistani air bases and past rhetoric from the highest Pakistani officials against Israel is disturbing.    As to the defense minister’s comments about the Abraham Accords, saying that Pakistan would never join because they don’t trust Israel: The clip may be a year old, but I fear the sentiment is fresh.    In that regard, it is imperative that Pakistan give an answer now to President Trump’s call to join the Abraham Accords.

The chuds are wrong about Indian immigration. Indian immigration is great for America. The chuds can fuck right off!

No region of the country is as Indian as the Bay Area, and no city in the Bay Area is as Indian as Fremont. Here, visitors crowd into Hindu temples to pray to Ganesha and other gods. Some public schools teach Hindi and the thwacks of cricket bats on balls ricochet across the biggest park. Inside the city’s many strip malls, Hyderabadi and Maharashtrian food are devoured by homesick immigrants. Women in saris pop in and out of groceries that sell spices and samosas, dal and ghee. The mayor of this Silicon Valley bedroom community of 227,000 is himself an immigrant from Punjab. Its voters helped send an Indian American — Rep. Ro Khanna — to Congress. Just a few decades ago, Fremont was as white as any other middle-class East Bay suburb. Today, 30% of residents are of Indian ancestry, the highest share of any city in the Bay Area. Silicon Valley’s hunger for talent, India’s deep bench of tech workers and the immigration liberalization of the 1990s reshaped Fremont — and much of the Bay Area with it. Similar transformations have unfolded in Dublin and Danville, Livermore and Albany. From 2010 to 2024, Indian Americans and immigrants from India were the fastest-growing ethnic group in a region that now has a larger share of Indians than anywhere else in the country. So far, the story of this community — whose members are diverse, with varied languages and religions — has been one of rapid success. But that trajectory is now at risk. The engine that powered its rise is threatened as President Donald Trump attacks H-1B visas and paths to citizenship. The anti-immigrant backlash has descended into hate at times against H-1B holders, and Indians specifically, prompting some in the community to consider leaving the U.S. and deterring others from coming here at all.
