“You could say it’s down 87% or you could say it’d have to go up by 700% to get back to that price.”

Sure.

What Trump said was that prices were being cut by 600%, not “prices are being cut such that they would need to go up 600% to return to the prior price.”
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

ah, more props to BuzzFeed: they did figure out Epstein was at the 2011 dinner after his conviction, plus at least 3 dinners beforehand. They even reported that Brooks was there! So six years ago, NYT should have known Brooks was socializing with Epstein. For shame. (h/t @dreadfulpenny.bsky.social)
In 2011, Jeffrey Epstein Was A Known Sex Offender. Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, And Sergey Brin Shared A Meal With Him Anyway.
After pleading guilty to charges of soliciting prostitution from an underage girl, Jeffrey Epstein spent part of 2011 reintroducing himself to elite society. A March 2011 dinner with the most powerful...

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader.

So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

Any Democrat who thinks it's appropriate to "find common ground" with the Republicans on issues like high school sports teams is negotiating with a political party that does not believe trans people should exist. This policy will kill people, so maybe stop wringing your hands about volleyball.

One small way to try to re-establish social trust would be to transparently disclose *in this very column* that you hung out with Jeffrey Epstein.

Just pay us for the potential of us granting all your wishes. The potential that republicans will not lose power and control of the regulatory system.
emphasis on "pledge" because there is no way this project is actually going to be generating utility scale energy in the near-term - but that doesn't mean it can't collect contracts that juice stock price, right?

Very bizarre for a vanity social media corp to become the holding company of a "utility-scale" nuclear fusion operation!
Is it just another way to funnel backdoor bribes to the Trump family, like his Crypto company? As in: sure, build your AI data centre but pledge to buy energy from us? Theories?

At least give him some credit for understanding the potential that his inside knowledge and ability to reduce regulation could lead to immense financial profit.
I've been waiting to find out exactly how Trump was going to personally profit from the AI greed frenzy he has unleashed because there was no way he was *not* going to get a piece.

This mixup started with Ira Stoll's Substack, was repeated by large accounts like Stop Antisemitism, then spread like wildfire across X and then claimed in Israeli news articles, even though there is no proof, and this likely stems from the misidentification. /

NEW: MIT Media Relations sends email to faculty imploring them not to engage with fake content showing murdered scientist Nuno Loureiro expressing views on Israel.

This confirms that the claims that Loureiro publicly spoke about Israel come from a mixup w/ a film worker who shares Loureiro's name.

Slides.
Unsourced pictures of the alternative facts that the administration was trying to gaslight the public with.
It doesn’t roll off the tongue but at least it’s accurate.
MSNBC: Why does Trump constantly exaggerate about the economy instead of just being straight with the American people?

HASSETT: The president spent a lot of time with our team preparing slides that showed the data for what he was talking about in the speech. He had documentation.
