The U.S. midterm rout of President Donald Trump's stewardship doesn't mean the world trusts America again.

Democrats won seats on anti-datacentre tickets and Musk wasted nearly half a billion dollars. Big tech may be losing its grip, but it won’t go quietly Photos That Precede Unfortunate Events: a couple of months back, Donald Trump hosted some of the world’s most powerful tech executives at the White House for a “ Super Intelligence luncheon ”, which by coincidence is also how my mum described her tuna sandwiches in a forlorn attempt to get me to eat them. Sitting either side of the president were Elon Musk, making a rare offline appearance in daylight hours, and Jensen Huang, the Nvidia chief executive carving out a precious slot in what we now know was an extremely busy schedule. Over a delicious meal of microchips and rare-earth metals, the billionaires sketched out a utopian future of an AI industry unencumbered by regulation or safeguards, powered by their heroic strongman leader, a political genius effortlessly able to impose his will upon an entire nation. And perhaps it should have been apparent even at the time that these (mostly) men were putting their faith in a guy who had recently been defeated by pond algae . But as the drinks and the good times flowed, it was still possible to believe that the sun would never set on the thousand-year American superintelligence empire.

After a series of combative press briefings between the Trump administration and journalists, the US president surprised many by reportedly offering Dana White, the head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and a longtime friend, the role of White House press secretary. Trump praised White as a “violent fighter and warrior”, but US media reports say he has already turned down the offer. Was it a punchy choice by the president or simply a punchline?

President claimed to have ushered in a ‘golden age’ even as prices soared and war dragged on – and midterm voters did not buy his looking-glass narrative A new “golden age of America” is under way, Donald Trump repeatedly declared in his final pitch to voters before the US midterm elections.

The stock market had hit 88 all-time highs. “They’re saying,” he said, that on his watch the US has become “the hottest country anywhere in the world”. Continue reading...

With the global tide turning against him, the US president’s lame duck status could still aggravate old tensions and spark new explosions It was a victory for the world, too. People in the many countries that suffered pain, loss and cruel indignities at the hands of Donald Trump over the past two chaotic, fearful years celebrated a moment of glorious, shared redemption. The monster, like others of his kind, still lurks in his gilded White House lair; far-right authoritarianism still casts a dark shadow over many nations. But the power of this most destructive of presidents is shattered , his malignant spell broken. The triumphant roar of US midterm voters was a rallying cry of democratic defiance that, echoing the American revolution of 250 years ago, reverberated around the globe.

Ukrainians voiced optimism that a Democratic-controlled Congress will curb the sickening appeasement of Vladimir Putin’s Russia. In Europe, the beginning of the end of the Trump era brought a sense of relief – and hope that toxic transatlantic relations can be drained of Maga poison. Continue reading...

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is facing increasing congressional scrutiny after multiple reports Friday night suggested he had a romantic relationship with a purported Chinese spy. Why it matters: Huang is arguably the world's most powerful CEO, the man who runs one of the world's largest companies and whose products are central to the world's most important technology. The mere suggestion that he was in some way compromised by a Chinese intelligence agent could quickly become a major, bipartisan focus of the incoming Congress. What they're saying : Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) promised a probe of the latest Times report and Huang's relationships. "The more I learn about the insane relationship between the Trump Administration, Chinese spies, and AI billionaires, the more I'm convinced there is nothing this administration does that isn't corrupt. Congress will investigate and get answers," Coons posted to X, linking in another post to the Times' story. Catch up quick: A series of reports over the last 10 days has raised concerns about an allegedly illicit relationship with an undercurrent of espionage. Oct. 29 : The New York Times reported that Jensen Huang and a tech executive named Alice Huang had a "close relationship," that U.S. authorities had concerns about her intelligence connections with China, and that President Trump had been briefed on the situation. Oct. 31 : The Wall Street Journal reported that intelligence authorities in the U.S., Singapore and Taiwan all had reason to believe that Alice Huang might be a Chinese spy. Nov. 5: A group of House Republican committee chairs asked Jensen Huang to give them a briefing on his relationship with Alice Huang and Nvidia's controls over sensitive information, saying they need to determine "the extent to which U.S. national security has been placed at risk." Nov. 6: Both the New York Times and Financial Times reported that Alice Huang was in fact a Chinese spy, recruited by top intelligence officials specifically to spy on
