While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot.
I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

Epstein had many known connections to Silicon Valley CEOs, but less known was how he made money from those relationships.

The Musk-RyanAir feud is stupid, but it's one result of extreme global wealth inequality. The richest person in the history of the world can threaten to buy a company because its leader dared to challenge him. It's like a rich kid buying the nightclub because they wouldn't let him in.

Musk is still talking at the Tesla shareholder meeting and he just criticized "the parasitic load of being a public company" which has "grown over time."
This from a man who was just awarded a $1 trillion pay package from more than 75% of his public company shareholders.

When Ross Ulbricht received a pardon from Trump for running Silk Road, the dark web drug marketplace, we wondered what his next move would be.
Over the past 7 months, he's gone on a speaking tour and received tens of millions of dollars in donations. It's a story tailor-made for the Trump era.

After being antagonistic to media outlets for the better part of the last 12 months, Musk is starting to do interviews with handpicked reporters and online personalities. It’s a strategy that he has turned to in the past (see 2018 Tesla “production hell”) when he wants to change the narrative.

My top Super Bowl memory is when Musk tweeted “Go Eagles” in 2023 from the game and then deleted it after a similar tweet from Biden got more engagement. Then he flew to Twitter HQ and demanded his workers find out why his posts were doing poorly, starting a multi-day fact finding mission.

There are so many layers to how this is wrong, starting with the fact that it was ProPublica who wrote stories based on people's (ahem billionaires') tax returns, and not Politico.

Some workers at the General Services Administration received an email today telling them to "seriously consider" the "Fork in the Road" offer ahead of coming cuts. The email came from a Trump appointee whose previous gigs were in "restructuring" and private equity.

I helped cover Ross Ulbricht's arrest in Oct 2013 in my first full time job as a reporter. Now, here's the backstory behind his pardon.

it's funny that the US keeps trying to invent new sports like pickleball and spikeball but the English are just like, "lads check out these fuckin DARTS."

This is the supreme irony of the MAGA schism over H-1Bs. Many workers who stayed at Twitter after Musk’s takeover did so because their status in the US was contingent on their employment. They kept a site running that was then used by MAGA folks to question why they were here in the first place.

I don't think big pubs are beyond criticism and I realize I work for one, but the diatribes against "legacy media" from folks this week who wrote/reported their own stories or posts after a mainstream outlet broke the news is a little rich.

Related to Musk playing fast and loose with government secrets, here's a passage from our book, Character Limit, in which he randomly tells a group of Twitter employees in Nov 2022 that he didn't think Russians would interfere with Twitter Blue because they had thus far failed to hack Starlink.
