They should have that graphic pop up whenever there’s a delay at an airport @united @Delta @AmericanAir @SouthwestAir

He was awesome - he played great roles, from Alien, to Viper in Top Gun, and many others. But he sure lived a full life!
Tom Skerritt, who starred in the TV series “Picket Fences” and appeared in movies ranging from “MASH” to “Alien,” “Top Gun,” “A River Runs Through It” and “Ted,” has died of natural causes at 93.

x.ai/bot/CXhCaQsmxAm1ym5qLwr… for OSINT, Journalists and GEOINT folks out there, a good bot to take any X post and get a before and after before spending any money for high-resolution. Spread the word: @Will4Planet @rmodrzewski @earlkman @dominocielo @planet @iceye_global @Satellogic @umbraspace @vantortech @BlackSky_Inc @capellaspace @SpireGlobal @hawkeye360 @SciGuySpace @jeff_foust @lorengrush @Sandra_I_Erwin @joroulette @planet4589 @mouthofmorrison @Aviation_Intel @DanLamothe @sentdefender @SoarAtlas @CleoPaskal @congressdj
Just a reflection over a year of using @grok the capabilities are moving at an incredible rate. This example below - how much would that have cost to make in the year 2000? 2010? Or even 2020?
It’s awe inspiring the speed of that example below; now think about engineering, design, “apps”, research, even Operating Systems new “standards” from scratch.
Maybe I’m too bullish on $SPCX but they own - don’t rent compute, and when a shortage arrives for @OpenAI and @AnthropicAI - and it will come one day, it’s going to get real, very fast when bills come due.
Haven’t been this excited since our family got our first cell phone, or my dad in 1996 brought home NVGs to look at the Halle Bopp Comet. Or maybe how tuned in I was when Steve Jobs gave yearly keynotes 2007 till his passing.
I think how I started out learning the Dewey Decimal system now this black mirror I type into and the human mind can tap into the world of all knowledge.
Now you don’t have to wait a year for a Steve Jobs to inspire, change, or breakthrough. With time, a model, you can imagine anything for good hopefully. Interesting times - @elonmusk I’m starting to believe mass abundance is coming and a big shift in the labor market.
Hey @bot use $25 from my X money account and buy me a gift you think I’ll like. Keep it under $25
Holmes proves most people are morons - and we all put pants on one legs at a time.
Besides Jim Mattis, Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos secured the support and board membership of a notable group of government figures and industry leaders, many recruited through former Secretary of State George Shultz.
Government and public service figures (who joined the board or “board of counselors”):
•George Shultz — Former U.S. Secretary of State (and previously Treasury, Labor, and OMB director); one of Holmes’s earliest and most influential backers.
•Henry Kissinger — Former U.S. Secretary of State and National Security Advisor.
•William Perry — Former U.S. Secretary of Defense.
•Sam Nunn — Former U.S. Senator (Georgia) and longtime Armed Services Committee leader.
•Bill Frist — Former U.S. Senator (Tennessee), Senate Majority Leader, and heart/lung transplant surgeon.
•Gary Roughead — Retired U.S. Navy Admiral and former Chief of Naval Operations.
•William H. Foege — Former Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Industry leaders:
•Richard Kovacevich — Former CEO and Chairman of Wells Fargo.
•Riley P. Bechtel — Former Chairman/CEO of Bechtel Group (major engineering and construction firm).
These high-profile names (many lacking direct diagnostic or lab expertise) gave Theranos significant prestige with investors, partners, and the public. Board members were typically paid about $150,000 annually plus equity; Kissinger reportedly received additional consulting compensation. After criticism of the board’s composition, many of the most prominent names were shifted to an advisory “board of counselors” with no fiduciary oversight, while a smaller group (including Mattis for a time) remained on the formal board.
Major investors who also lent credibility through large commitments included Rupert Murdoch, the Walton family, the DeVos family, the Cox family, and others, though their role was primarily financial rather than public vouching via board service.
Even more concerning are 🇺🇸 ports. I doubt that @DHSgov is checking every cargo ship coming into east coast ports. Probably the only way to really beat airports now for espionage - what say you @BryanDeanWright and @leahfiles @sarahadams weren’t y’all all 391 pipe-hitters?
🚨🚨🚨 Russian intelligence operatives hiding behind fake identities aboard commercial vessels?
A new investigation by @DanWatchDK reveals that 28 individuals aboard seven 🇷🇺 Russian commercial vessels transporting military equipment from Kaliningrad to Africa may have been sailing under fabricated identities.
The findings are striking:
🔹 Passports with nearly identical numbers, apparently issued around the same time.
🔹 No identifiable digital footprint for the individuals concerned.
🔹 Older, non-biometric passports with no recorded travel history in the databases examined.
The findings raise serious questions about the potential use of commercial shipping as cover for Russian intelligence operations and covert personnel movements through European waters. ⚠️
That’s quite the message @elonmusk this morning!! Go and procreate the solar system!!
@congressdj @kiaraplds @poteto sharing the wedding planning bot for reach. @congressdj bill bot inspired me, see following post for reports (don’t worry fake data in them - not my own) it can generate.

So I posted earlier today about the Bill Bot @congressdj has made. It went through my bills and found $10 a month on my ATT that I didn't need to be paying. I had it do a deep dive into our home owners insurance and car insurance. It found Travelers Insurance at a discount for the house which was substantial. Today I called in to set it up. We discussed adding the cars and found more savings!! In total this Bill Bot set me up for $2070 off of the house and 3 cars. With more coverage for my home which I learned was way under insured..
Add Bill Bot, give him all your bills and policies and let it cook!!
Hear me out @MayorBowser and @Janeese4DC I got a startup idea for reducing prices for transportation. The troubled youths can clean up the dung and get discounted rides from Highland Cows. The Cows are renewable by eating at the Arboretum and Mall!!

Rejecting Waymo and Robotaxi - couldn’t even hit the ball, at least Trump shanked it. That golf course is awful - you know it, we know it. Rickshaws instead of Uber and Lyft 2027!!
🤖 Made with AI
I don’t know about you, but I want to start a Highland Cow 🐮 / and youth rickshaw business around DC - that cool @MayorBowser @Janeese4DC @councilofdc ? That’d be way better than @Waymo or @robotaxi #luddites

Another shady national group with zero ties to DC trying to influence the @councilofdc and others. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.
Loomer discovers ADS-B. Yay. Welcome to the party. How about you ask what / who said Iran would be a cake walk? Did they think Iran would go like Venezuela? If so, they should resign. Is Iran a threat? Sure, but you kill all the leadership and now we’re negotiating with Jafar in HR. I thought we won this “conflict” 50+ times.
