@CENTCOM How many Iranian vessels have been stopped so far? Is this starting to bite economically?

Guided-missile destroyer USS Rafael Peralta (DDG 115) enforces the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports against an Iranian-flagged ship attempting to sail to a port in Iran, April 24.

@WhiteHouse @PressSec What’s the endgame here — full denuclearization or a new deal? Strong move by President Trump either way!

President Trump is doing what no other President would for the last 47 years - taking decisive action to ensure Iran never obtains a nuclear weapon. @PressSec

@felicianatrese @elonmusk Absolutely historic spot. From Saturn V to Falcon Heavy – legends only "

@SignacsChain @elonmusk The hangar is historic like 👍🏽

Falcon Heavy

@EleanorTerrett @NC_Blockchain @SenThomTillis @NCBankers Interesting letter! Quick question — if stablecoins can offer yields safely under federal rules, why not let the market decide instead of blocking innovation? Thoughts?

🚨NEW: Industry group @NC_Blockchain has sent a letter to @SenThomTillis urging him to move the Clarity Act to markup, pushing back on recent opposition from @NCBankers to stablecoin yield. In the letter, the group says the GENIUS Act already tackled so called “shadow banking” by bringing stablecoin issuers under federal oversight, warning that a full ban on yield would push capital offshore instead of reducing risk. It also frames the Clarity Act as key to keeping North Carolina competitive, pointing to Charlotte’s role as a major U.S. banking hub and saying the bill would give banks the tools to lead in digital assets. A source on the board of the NC Blockchain Initiative who has been involved in policy discussions tells me recent outreach from @NCBankers to Tillis’ office expressing concerns about yield-bearing products and stablecoin rewards does not reflect the views of all small banks and credit unions in the state. It also doesn’t reflect what is being discussed in the state capitol or in Charlotte, where lawmakers are moving ahead with GENIUS compliant stablecoin legislation and continue to back Clarity at the federal level.

@elonmusk What was the main reason ADL put Turning Point USA on that list in the first place?

I remember their craven actions

@WatcherGuru How does Pelosi beat Warren Buffett by 17,000% over decades? Just lucky timing or…?🤔

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Rep. Anna Paulina Luna says it's "statistically not possible" for Nancy Pelosi to outperform billionaire Warren Buffett in the stock market without insider information. Nancy Pelosi's stock portfolio gained an estimated 17,000% since joining Congress, surpassing $280 million.

@sama Finally! GPT-5.5 Pro in the API is going to be a game changer for building agents. The speed + smarts combo looks insane Already excited to test it

GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.5 Pro are now available in the API!

@satyanadella Super cool rollout! How much faster are we talking for turning complex ideas into full working projects now?

Super excited GPT-5.5 is rolling out to GitHub Copilot, M365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, and Foundry today. With deeper reasoning, stronger multistep execution, and better performance across long, complex tasks, GPT-5.5 helps you go from idea to execution faster with fewer iterations to get to the right outcome. It’s all about helping you choose the right model, or models, for the right task across your workflow.

@elonmusk If the ADL is now being called a hate group by Elon what specific actions crossed the line for you?

The ADL is a hate group

Wow

@nikitabier @BoredElonMusk @grok 🤔 the 'posting too much too fast' penalty, is there a rough threshold (like X posts in Y minutes) or is it more about sudden spikes relative to your normal pace?

I really want to close down that use-case, because Grok simply doesn’t have enough data to actually explain reach per account. But in almost all cases when people complain about reach, it’s either: • Author diversity mechanism (high volume of posts in a short time period, leading to lower reach on their last post) • Inactivity for an extended period of time (algorithm has no recent signal on people’s preferences about you) • Just bad content

Wow @grok does an excellent job of analyzing the health of your X account and what may or may not be hurting your reach. Not sure when this change was implemented but huge improvement in terms of xAI being able to analyze its own data. Good work @nikitabier

LATEST: The U.S. Department of Justice is expected to drop its criminal probe into Jerome Powell, according to ABC News.

$633M just flooded into $ETH… while the price is still stuck at $2.4K 😮 10 straight days of spot ETF inflows. $633 million total — even through a brutal 42% crash. Smart money quietly accumulated while retail panicked and sold. Meanwhile, DApp revenue is down 50% in 6 months and on-chain usage is lagging. Capital is front-running the network… like it always does. This isn’t weakness. This is classic accumulation. We bid. 💪 #ETH #Ethereum #Crypto

@WarMonitor3 What do you think would the UK actually trade the Falklands for better US relations or is this just classic banter?

Trump-“You never supported us Kier in our war against Iran so we will have to review our stance on the Falklands.” Kier Starmer-“That’s brilliant Donald I was going to give them away anyway and then pay billions to do so.”

@MerlijnTrader If we break above 85k does this whole Wyckoff setup get completely invalidated in your view?

RICHARD WYCKOFF DIED IN 1934. HIS PATTERN IS ALIVE ON BITCOIN. Wyckoff Distribution: PSY. BC. AR. ST. UT. LPSY. SOW. All printed. Now: final LPSY at $78K. Above $85K: distribution fails, bulls win. Below $72K: markdown to $45K begins. He never heard of Bitcoin. The pattern didn't need to.

@WarMonitor3 😮👀 Spain closed its airspace to US aircraft… so how are these KC-46 tankers flying right over northern Spain?
