BREAKING: House DOGE Committees Fiery First Hearing, Chaired By Marjorie Taylor Greene

Tucker Carlson, a long-standing figurehead in the world of news and political commentary and former Fox News host, announced on Tuesday his plans to embark on a fresh venture - a show on Twitter. The announcement came as a surprise to many, especially given that Carlson's departure from Fox News was just a few weeks prior. This article delves into the context and implications of this remarkable news. Known for his controversial commentary and knack for sparking debate, Carlson made the announcement in a three-minute video posted to his Twitter account. A dynamic force on the platform, Carlson boasts over six million followers, whose avid consumption of his posts attests to his influence. Interestingly, the new announcement made no reference to his former employer, Fox News. Instead, Carlson seized the opportunity to lambast the media landscape more broadly, decrying what he perceives as its groupthink tendencies. Carlson asserted that those in the news business should aim for “the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can." However, he also noted that there are invariably boundaries to that freedom. His observation is a testament to the underlying tensions and complexities in the news industry, where the search for truth often clashes with institutional constraints and public sensibilities.

SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet service has attracted a loyal user base despite delivering lower download speeds than traditional fixed broadband in both urban and rural areas across the U.S. The recent FCC approval for increasing the transmit duty cycles of its second-generation user dishes promises to improve internet speeds for users in North America. This development, along with the enthusiastic user base, as evidenced by the positive NPS scores from Ookla's survey, indicates a promising future for Starlink as it competes with other satellite internet providers, such as Amazon's upcoming Kuiper project.

Gwynne Shotwell, president and COO of SpaceX, oversees daily operations and manages customer and strategic relations to foster company growth. Joining SpaceX in 2002 as vice president of Business Development, she has since built the Falcon vehicle family manifest to over 70 launches, equating to more than $10 billion in business, and serves on the company's board of directors. Prior to SpaceX, Shotwell spent a decade at the Aerospace Corporation, where she held roles in space systems engineering, technology, and project management, eventually becoming chief engineer of an MLV-class satellite program. In addition to her work at SpaceX, Shotwell has held various leadership positions and received numerous accolades. She was appointed to the US Export-Import Bank's Advisory Committee and the FAA Management Advisory Council in 2014. Shotwell's accomplishments include managing a landmark FAA study on commercial space transportation, conducting extensive space policy analysis for NASA, and serving as director of Microcosm's Space Systems Division. She has been awarded the World Technology Award for Individual Achievement in Space, inducted into the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame, and elected a fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

In a surprising turn of events, Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter, has purchased approximately 10,000 graphics processing units (GPUs) to advance AI research at the social media giant, according to a report by Insider. This move came shortly after Musk endorsed an open letter that urged for a six-month halt on the development of powerful artificial intelligence. The tech entrepreneur and venture capitalist Vinod Khosla, however, told Bloomberg that he believes Musk's public support for slowing AI development might be a strategic move to help him catch up with the competition. Musk, who has warned about the potential dangers of AI in the past, was one of over 1,000 individuals who signed the open letter in March. The letter cautioned that AI companies are engaged in an "out-of-control race" and called for a temporary halt to the development of more advanced systems. Earlier this week, Musk expressed his support for Geoffrey Hinton, widely known as the "Godfather of AI," who resigned from Google and shared his regrets about creating technology that could threaten humanity in an interview with The New York Times. Despite Musk's recent public support for curbing AI development, Khosla is skeptical of his motives. "Elon is behind," Khosla told Bloomberg, adding, "I 80% suspect his call to slow down AI development was so he could catch up." The recent acquisition of 10,000 GPUs for Twitter lends credibility to Khosla's suspicions, as tech companies frequently use these components to work on large-scale AI models.

SpaceX, led by Elon Musk, is currently facing legal challenges that could significantly disrupt the rapid development of its next-generation Starship spacecraft at the Boca Chica, Texas launch site. Conservation groups have recently sued the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for approving SpaceX's rocket operations without a thorough environmental impact review. This lawsuit comes just 11 days after the debut Starship test flight sent sand and debris miles from the launchpad and scattered chunks of reinforced concrete and metal shrapnel thousands of feet from the site, which sits next to a national wildlife refuge. The Starship rocket is crucial for SpaceX's commercial launch business and Musk's ultimate goal of establishing human colonies on Mars. NASA is also depending on SpaceX's quick development timelines for its plans to land humans on the moon by 2026 using the Starship spacecraft. Although the Texas Starbase facility is only intended for testing and the actual Starship operations will take place in Florida, a lengthy court battle or unfavorable ruling against the FAA could delay Musk's goal of conducting another test launch within the next two months. Legal experts familiar with such claims suggest that if the court orders the FAA to conduct a full environmental impact statement review, it could result in delays ranging from two to five years. According to Penn State Law professor Jamison Colburn, finding test sites suitable for massive prototype rockets like the Starship requires a narrow set of conditions, such as being far from populated areas and near a coast for safety reasons. Caryn Schenewerk, a former senior attorney for SpaceX who worked on selecting the Starship site, explained that few such options exist in the U.S., and export controls would make building a foreign launch site difficult.

In the six months since Elon Musk took over Twitter, the company's employee count has dwindled by almost 90%, as the billionaire entrepreneur has continuously slashed the workforce through layoffs and firings. Some employees have reportedly been interrogated about leaks before being let go, while others have simply quit or taken jobs outside of Twitter. The remaining staff members scramble to meet Musk's demands, while dealing with constant site issues, as there are fewer people to help. As a result, Twitter's headcount is now down to its lowest level in many years. Currently, Twitter has around 1,000 full-time employees, according to two sources familiar with the matter. Musk had previously stated that Twitter had 1,500 people remaining on staff, but it was unclear whether contract workers were included in that number. The sources said that Twitter's headcount is closer to 1,000 employees, particularly when excluding any remaining contract workers, who are not considered full-time staff and are technically employed by a third party. Musk has also ended contracts for thousands of such workers.
