If this draft Capital Flow Management Regulations 2026 is passed into law as-is then expect it to be exported through the continent and overseas @_DannyKnowles. Border enforcement officers can now search anyone and seize your crypto, gold, cash or securities if they suspect you’re moving value out. Self-custody under direct threat. State-overreach is glaring. Public comments close 30 June. Full breakdown + how to submit here:

Dang... today the federal jury in Oakland unanimously ruled against Elon Musk. This is what happened. Elon co-founded OpenAI in 2015 as a nonprofit to build AI for humanity’s benefit. He donated ~$44 million but left the board in 2018. In 2024 he sued Altman, OpenAI & Greg Brockman, claiming they “stole a charity” by turning it into a for-profit company (with massive Microsoft funding) and abandoning the original mission. Elon wanted: • ~$150 billion in damages • Sam Altman removed as CEO • Force OpenAI back to nonprofit status This is what the jury decided today: They didn’t even rule on whether OpenAI broke its promise... Instead, they ruled Musk filed too late. The statute of limitations had expired claiming he knew about the for-profit plans years earlier. The judge accepted the jury’s advisory verdict... The result: Elon got nothing. No money, no leadership changes, no forced restructuring. OpenAI (now valued at ~$850B+) keeps operating as is. Elon can still appeal, but today was a clear legal win for Sam Altman and OpenAI.

Zerah Colburn: Entertaining Calculations One of the first lightning calculators to capitalize on his talent was Zerah Colburn (1804–1839), an American farmer’s son from Vermont who learned the multiplication tables up to 100 before he could even read or write. By the age of six, young Zerah’s father took him on the road, where his performances generated enough income to send him to school in Paris and London. By age eight, he was internationally famous, performing lightning calculations in England, and was described in the Annual Register as “the most singular phenomenon in the history of the human mind that perhaps ever existed.” No less than Michael Faraday and Samuel Morse admired him. No matter where he went, Colburn met all challengers with speed and precision. He tells us in his autobiography of one set of problems he was given in New Hampshire in June 1811: “How many days and hours since the Christian Era commenced, 1811 years ago? Answered in twenty seconds: 661,015 days, 15,864,360 hours. How many seconds in eleven years? Answered in four seconds: 346,896,000.” As is often the case with lightning calculators, interest in Colburn’s amazing skills diminished over time, and by the age of twenty he had returned to America and become a Methodist preacher. He died at the youthful age of thirty-five. In summarizing his skills as a lightning calculator, and the advantage such an ability affords, Colburn reflected, “True, the method requires a much larger number of figures than the common rule, but it will be remembered that pen, ink, and paper cost Zerah very little when engaged in a sum.” Source: SECRETS OF MENTAL MATH by Arthur Benjamin and Michael Shermer

This pathetic hit piece against @FBIDirectorKash Patel is why no one trusts the Failing New York Times anymore. At the invitation of Admiral Paparo, Commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, Director Patel led a senior delegation to INDOPACOM to advance joint operations against our adversaries. As part of this engagement, the delegation participated in a similar tour of the USS Arizona. As is standard practice on these visits, their hosts arranged the same Pearl Harbor tour that has been offered for years to senior administration officials across multiple administrations. This is not a new or a one-off event. The Fake News media is simply trying to smear Director Patel’s name any way they can.
