A look at California’s high-profile transportation needs + why expanded air travel asap is a must. High-speed rail is 6 years late, no trains run to date + not fully expected until 2038. Total costs estimated at $128 billion, up nearly 4x. @RCPolitics @IATA realclearpolicy.com/articles/2026/…

A look at the #copyright issues in #AI and how extreme stands from Hollywood could gum up #AI development. This will play into China’s hands, which has no respect for US copyrights, giving it a big edge in the AI race, while hurting artists and writers lexingtoninstitute.org/how-hollywood-…

Not a surprise at all. #DeJoy has served nearly 5 years, about average for a PMG. While some important tasks have been accomplished -- smooth #electionmail e.g., the Delivering for America plan has not worked, even with substantial taxpayer help, a new direction is clearly needed.

BREAKING: Louis DeJoy is planning to step down from his role as postmaster general, and is calling on the Postal Service Board of Governors to start looking for his successor. Story tk

What disingenuous BS from the primary driver of the #EU free speech restricting Digital Services Act who impotenly tried to use it last summer for @elonmusk to cancel interview with new @POTUS . USA drives the #AI and free speech train @ThierryBreton Get on board or get ready to be irrelevant
Thierry Breton@ThierryBreton

Welcome to Europe VP @JDVance. With all due respect, in 🇪🇺, freedom of speech is a core value of our democracy — it is non-negotiable. Never was and never will be. Proof? Even fake news are allowed (sadly, sometimes echoed by top US officials) : EU/DSA has never canceled elections—despite far-right extremists and @ElonMusk continuously pushing this lie. The DSA doesn’t regulate content; it ensures #transparency so no platform — being Chinese, Singaporean, American or European —can manipulate algorithms. In the United States, foreign companies respect US laws. It's not open for debate. In Europe, we expect the same behavior from US companies.

Who will determine the direction of the Internet? China, which censors and surveils, or America, which values free expression + economic empowerment? @AmericanEdge published a policy agenda that will ensure the future internet reflects American values americanedgeproject.org/aep-unveils-co…

I have said in the past, that this war is not an excuse to do something, but rather an opportunity to do it faster. Before the war we planned gradual automation. But now - we will get to 100% automated operations within 2024. Today we at @ukrposhta are launching our first 100% automated sorting center “Kyiv - Right” which can process over 400K parcels per day and will open 20+ sorting hubs within the next 3-4 months. We need to provide Ukraine with dependable, economically accessible delivery and we will make it happen @OlKubrakov

And the results are now out, apparently a $2.0 billion quarterly loss (in what is supposed to be the best quarter) though USPS seems to think we are still in FY 2023, which ended 4+ months ago. Full release: about.usps.com/newsroom/natio…

Given the many delays @USPS has hand with mail delivery lately it shouldn't be a surprise their quarterly financials are dramatically delayed @kevinrkosar @jacobbogage @MarkMFallon @EricM_Katz @GOPOversight @OversightDems @cmroberson06 @jheckmanWFED @NonprofitMailer @PostCom2

Who knew having a Zoom call could be so hard? Not a good look for @USPS which is expected to announce dismal financial results shortly, redacts from all FOIA and other documents ferociously, and which has ended pubic comments at these meetings @NonprofitMailer @PostCom2 @USGCA

More than 80 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives urged President Joe Biden to nominate two candidates to open seats on the U.S. Postal Board of Governors, adding the actions of current postal leaders are "deeply concerning." msn.com/en-us/news/us/…
