Hunter Biden's cryptocurrency venture collapsed within seconds of its launch, wiping out roughly 80 percent of buyers, and the former first son's profanity-filled response raised more questions than it answered. The $LAPTOP meme coin, named after the infamous laptop Hunter Biden left at a Delaware repair shop in 2019, began trading on a Wednesday and cratered almost immediately. Blockchain analytics firm Bubblemaps estimated that more than 15,000 digital wallets ended up underwater, with four out of five launch-day buyers losing money. One investor put in roughly $200,000 near the token's peak price and watched the position shrink to approximately $2,000, Fox Business reported . The token's price swung from $2.39 to $316 in the opening…Open
Hey internet friends. Great news...America has more 401(k) millionaires than ever before! Hooray...but there's one little thing: one million dollars today doesn't buy what it did six years ago in 2020. On top of that, the money Americans set aside for retirement may be funding the destruction of America. For decades, we've been told that the 401(k) represented independence, ownership and a security. Meanwhile, trillions of dollars flowed into a small group of "asset managers" like Larry Fink with the power to influence American companies, energy policy, infrastructure and even the federal government itself. In this video, we follow the money from the disappearance of traditional pensions to the coal antitrust case involving BlackRock,…

America is caught in a historic capital squeeze: - On one side: Trillions Washington must borrow to pay for the past . - On the other: Trillions the economy needs to build the future . Why it matters: The next president will inherit a fiscal reckoning decades in the making. The price it exacts — on taxes, benefits, borrowing and investment — could shape America's prosperity and power for generations. Zoom in: President Trump said in 2016 that he could eliminate what was then roughly $19 trillion in national debt within eight years. On Tuesday, the debt crossed $40 trillion, after growing by $3 trillion in the past year alone. - About $32 trillion is owed to investors and other outside holders. The rest is debt the government owes…
The Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board's contracts with BlackRock and SSGA to oversee a federal retirement program contain DEI mandates that are at odds with Trump's agenda.
A new climate-related metric advanced by a company linked to private equity firms is quietly subverting the U.S. housing market, a new report claims. Major online real estate platforms such as Zillow, Relator.com, Homes.com and Redfin all have featured predictive climate-risk scores, according to a July report from the American Energy Institute and Consumers’ Research first shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation. The scores, developed by private company First Street, can often directly contrast with the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) official flood maps and determinations. “For most American families, a home is their single largest financial asset and the primary vehicle for building generational wealth,”…Open

The AI industry , battling concerns about its impact on jobs and energy costs, is accusing China-linked actors of using social media to fan opposition to the data centers powering America's AI boom. Why it matters: As the U.S. and China race for AI supremacy, resistance to data centers is threatening the industry's massive buildout plans here — and AI leaders believe foreign actors are stoking the backlash. State of play: Pro-AI groups say they've been tracking a barrage of what they believe are bot-driven social media messages, which they argue is being driven by China, its proxies and other countries in its sphere of influence. - "Americans have AI anxiety for a variety of reasons, and that makes it particularly susceptible to…
