My wife is amazing, y’all. Top of her class in law school—and today she passed the bar! All while raising three boys under 7, working, and being an incredible mom and wife. Beyond impressive. Love my lawyer!

Absolute panic in Washington. Marco Rubio whines that Iran is planning to permanently control the Strait of Hormuz and charge a toll. He admits the US is powerless to stop it alone and begs the rest of the world to step in. Iran has completely outsmarted the American empire.

MURRAY: Is it true that people making under $184k pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate? DAHL: Yes. MURRAY: And the rate for someone making $1 million? DAHL: 2.2%. MURRAY: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184k, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.

NEW: Kentucky family rejects $26 million offer to convert part of their farm into a data center despite the offer being about 10 times the going rate for farmland in the area. "If it's my way, I'll stay and hold and feed a nation. 26 million doesn't mean anything." "As long as I'm on this land, as long as it's feeding me, as long as it's taking care of me, there's nothing that can destroy me if I've got this land." Video: Local 12 WKRC

After a decade in corporate finance at Procter & Gamble, Accenture, and most recently as a Vice President at JPMorganChase, I’m excited to share that I’m now in venture capital full time as Managing Partner at @Velocityhq_. This move is deeply meaningful to me. Over the past several years, I’ve been working in venture across Africa’s tech ecosystem supporting capital allocators as they deploy and helping founders navigate the fundraising journey. This work has never felt peripheral to me. It has long felt like the clearest expression of the work I’m meant to do. Since I was 18, I’ve wanted to play a role in building a more prosperous future for Africa. Today, I’m grateful to be fully committed to that path. I’m incredibly proud of what we’re building at @Velocityhq_. Through the platform, we’ve invested in 75 Africa-focused companies, and we’re continuing to build the kind of firm and ecosystem support that exceptional founders deserve. If you’re building from Africa for the world, I’d love to connect. With gratitude and joy, Marge

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says the biggest job boom coming to America has nothing to do with AI software or Wall Street, it's in infrastructure. Specifically, the construction, power grids, and data centers. That is where he believes the massive job growth is coming from. And his warning is that we are not ready for it. Companies are committing hundreds of billions to build out AI infrastructure across the US, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet are projected to spend $650 billion on it this year alone. But that buildout requires physical workers. Electricians, pipefitters, construction crews, grid engineers. Fink told the Trump administration directly, the US doesn't have enough skilled workers to meet the demand these projects will create. Microsoft's Brad Smith called the skilled labor shortage the "single biggest challenge for data center expansion in the U.S." In some regions, Microsoft had to relocate workers or ask them to commute 75 miles just to fill critical roles. The electrical work alone accounts for 45–70% of total data center construction costs. Over 200,000 electricians are expected to retire in the next decade. The pipeline to replace them doesn't exist at the scale needed. Energy resilience is the other piece Fink flagged. Data centers don't just need to be built, they need consistent, reliable power. The US grid hasn't been meaningfully expanded in decades. China, by contrast, generates roughly twice the electricity the US does and is actively building more. Fink's point is direct because if the US doesn't win the buildout of its physical infrastructure, China will. That is why BlackRock just committed $100 million to fund training programs for 50,000 skilled trade workers over the next five years. The largest asset manager in the world is putting money into electricians and plumbers because it sees the bottleneck clearly.
StockMarket.News@_Investinq

BlackRock just spent $100 million training plumbers and electricians. The initiative is called Future Builders. The goal is to get 50,000 Americans through skilled trades programs over five years, electricians, HVAC techs, ironworkers, pipefitters. There is a real crisis behind it. America is trying to build the most ambitious AI infrastructure in history. Meta alone is spending up to $50 billion on a single data center campus in Louisiana. That construction requires an enormous amount of electrical work. There are not enough electricians to do it and the numbers are stark. About 200,000 electricians are expected to retire over the next decade. We need over 300,000 new ones just to build out the data centers Big Tech is racing to complete. The gap is not closing on its own. Microsoft and Google have both flagged the electrician shortage as a top constraint on U.S. data center expansion. For decades, the U.S. pushed every student toward a four-year degree. Trade enrollment fell, apprenticeship pipelines thinned out, the workforce aged and was never replaced. Now the bill is coming due at the worst possible time. BlackRock also invested over $3 billion in the bonds financing Meta's Hyperion data center, part of a $27 billion private debt deal, the largest ever structured for a single project. It is now funding both the AI buildout and the workers needed to finish it. AI is not automating the electrician. AI is the reason the electrician now has more leverage than ever. Every model, every data center, every autonomous system runs on physical infrastructure that only a credentialed tradesperson can legally build and energize. The technology that was supposed to replace blue-collar work turned out to need blue-collar work more than any other sector right now.

Don't be lazy. Move to Texas. This home is just 15 minutes from me in Dallas and is $350,000 for 4,000 sf. So many of your problems would be solved by moving here. Yet you complain about the moving process. Trust me, California sucks. I lived in San Diego for 4.5 years. You could not pay me to move back.

Way back, we bought 100 units in a rougher neighborhood. Kids kept bending the wrought iron fence bars to break into vacant units. We put Crisco on every bar. No break-ins after that. Kids didn’t want to mess up their clothes climbing a greasy fence. Cheaper than off duty police

Mark Cuban just explained AI better than ANYONE in silicon valley has all year… a tool. a way to learn. the biggest democratization of knowledge we've ever seen. but he's also splitting people into two camps. >ones who use AI so they don't have to learn anything. >ones who use it so they have the opportunity to learn everything. this split is going to define the next decade of careers. which side are you on?

I had a great relationship with Coach Holtz for three years at the University of Arkansas. I stopped by his office often to get the Snickers bars he’d have in his drawer for me. I’m so happy Alvin Roberston and myself were able to meet up with him at the Notre Dame game.🏀
