Can't stop thinking about Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive worth $828 billion, spending $290 million to elect Trump, becoming $563 billion richer since Trump was elected and ending humanitarian aid that will lead to the deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest kids on the planet.

There's an interesting bit in Louis Theroux's chat with Alan Carr on crisis management.
Carr said: "As soon as you become involved in the conversation, it's over for you."
And there is no finer example of that working in practice than with Labour/ Mandelson vs Farage/ £5mill

Victoria Derbyshire spend 8 minutes taking apart Nigel Farage's £5,000,000 gift
"As you'd expect we asked Reform UK for an interview tonight. One Reform UK press officer asked: with who and to discuss what"
"We said we'd like to talk about the local elections, the detention centres in Green areas, and £5m gift from Christopher Harborne"
"We didn't receive another reply"

This is absolutely insane:
By 2:10 PM ET today, the S&P 500, $SPY, $675 strike calls had fallen to a low of $0.02 per contract, effectively worthless.
Then, at 3:20 PM ET, President Trump said the Iran war is "very complete," sending the S&P 500 soaring.
By 3:30 PM ET, 10 minutes later, these same calls were trading at $4.95 per contract, up 24,650%.
In other words, $1,000 invested in these calls at 2:10 PM ET was worth $247,500 just 80 minutes later.
We are witnessing historic volatility.

CNN's Dana Bash reports on a conversation she just had with Trump: "He quickly turned to Cuba. He said without being asked, 'Cuba is going to fall pretty soon.'"

Is there something vaguely... entitled, about a man who gets into his chauffeur driven car with pristine white leather seats after a day in police custardy... and reclines his seat?

CCHQ apparently chipper tonight, I’m told.
As the polls close, they’re “utterly convinced” Susan Hall has won New York City.
Strong health warning but it would be a monumental upset.

I actually live in a small English village. It’s total codswallop what @elonmusk is saying.
We’re not “hobbits under siege” we’re ordinary people - how rude to patronise us like this.
It’s fear-mongering dressed up as folklore.
