Japan nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2019.

Wouldn't it be the other way around? I think Musk would rather have TSLA ~~bagholders~~ shareholders prop up his private companies, of which he likely owns a higher percentage than Tesla. The pitch could be that xAI has what Tesla needs for some of the vaporware he keeps promising and that Tesla should therefore acquire xAI.

The true Canadian deterrent.

I don't think so, at least when it comes to US citizens, because deportations would cost them and spark controversy for no benefit. I think they'd prefer to keep these deeply indebted people in the US as indentured servants willing to work for pennies and too poor to engage politically.

I didn't mean to dispute that. I just checked what you stated and posted what I found for anyone else who, like me, wasn't up to date on this meeting. I share your assessment.

The AP reported:

The 88-year-old pope offered the Catholic vice president three big chocolate Easter eggs for Vance’s three young children, who did not attend, as well as a Vatican tie and rosaries.

The penguins will tariff him up.

You've conjured images in my mind. I wish you hadn't.

Whatcha gonna do next, separate boys and girls again? Make all females wear sacks?

Don't give them ideas. I wouldn't be surprised if they promoted gender segregation as some form of “protection against the ~~gay~~ trans threat”.

I can't even believe the trump admin is going after tech giants.

I share the disbelief. I think it is mostly a power play against not just Google, but all tech giants, which must be watching this closely, given most of them operate in a similarly anticompetitive manner: kiss the ring or else. The Trump administration could give Google reprieve in exchange for axing DEI further and helping push their political agenda.

I can't imagine anything the admin does will be good for society so maybe its safe to assume they will be broken up so elon can buy a chunk?

I think so too: if Google doesn't satisfy Trump and his administration, parts of it will be forcibly sold as private equity, outside of shareholder scrutiny and beyond the reach of the SEC. Such a private company would be easier to control than a publicly traded one.

Ich danke Dir und @SpongyAneurism@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz für Eure Erklärungen.
