"The dot com bubble was actually a great time to start reevaluating how and why we value stocks — to say “hey, wait, that $2 billion deal will only make $100 million in revenue?” or “this company spends $5 for every $1 it makes!” — but nobody, it appears, remained particularly suspicious of the tech industry, or a stock market that was increasingly orienting itself around conning shareholders."

"The immediate concern is that AI is becoming a financial bubble whose bursting will harm lots of innocent people including, perhaps, you.

Anyone remember the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s? The housing bubble of 2006? The tulip-mania bubble of the 1630s? The South Sea bubble of 1720?

They all followed a well-worn pattern."

"The reason for all these things happening at the same time is that Trump is getting more desperate than ever as his presidency is crashing down. Across every single poll, Trump’s approval is the worst ever.

We are witnessing a death spiral that is unprecedented in American history."

"President Donald Trump's approval rating fell to 38%, the lowest since his return to power, with Americans unhappy about his handling of the high cost of living and the investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.
The four-day poll, which concluded on Monday, comes as Trump's grip on his Republican Party shows signs of weakening."

"Trump is lashing out, and continually escalating out of desperation. He’s a lame duck president whose attempts to consolidate power haven’t entirely gone to plan.

Every day, more Americans realize this is no way to live. Eventually, we will hit a critical mass. Solidarity is the only way forward."

"American public life has become a bacchanal of corruption.

This is the lurking danger as Trump unravels in term two.

The immediate danger is incitement of violence. When Trump is hindfooted, he does things like call for Democrats in Congress to be hanged."

"It’s not a coincidence that yesterday Trump (1) called for Democratic lawmakers to be executed, (2) removed the swastika and noose from the Coast Guard hate symbol list, and (3) tried to pressure Ukraine to surrender most of its Eastern territories and give up its military to Russia."

"We do still live in a world in which Trump doesn’t simply get his way. Much to his disappointment, President Trump is no Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud.

And so Trump lashed out. And it’s surely not an accident that this explosion came in the immediate wake of signing the Epstein files legislation."

"In a normal political world such behavior by a president would call for censure by Congress, if not impeachment, and would provoke talk about invoking the 25th Amendment. We don’t, alas, live in a normal political world. But we do still live in a world in which Trump can’t simply suppress dissent."

"It’s obviously beyond irresponsible for a president to call for death for members of Congress who had the temerity to restate the law of the land. It’s also dangerous. Rep. Houlahan’s office filed a threat complaint to the Capitol Police against 'the president,' and she was right to do so."

"Even Trump’s spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, had to sort of walk back Trump’s statement a few hours later, leading to the remarkable spectacle of a breaking news alert informing the public that, no, the president did not want members of the opposition party killed."

"Yesterday, I published an article that began:

'Welcome to the Great AI Bubble, a metastasized trillion dollar tech tumour so massive it’s practically visible from space.'

And today, in a strange bit of timing, news lands that Peter Thiel - the closest thing the modern world has to a real-life Bond villain - has dumped his entire holding in Nvidia, the chip manufacturer."
