Elon Musk Forms a New Political Party to Challenge Trump and the Republicans

As he had previously vowed, Tesla CEO Elon Musk officially announced the formation of a new, third political party on Saturday, July 5, 2025. This dramatic move comes just hours after President Donald Trump signed his “One Big Beautiful Bill” into law, a sweeping budget measure that implements massive spending cuts and eliminates nearly all federal climate and clean energy programs, legislation Musk staunchly opposed. The announcement was definitive. “Today, the America Party is formed to give

Elon Musk’s New Political Party Sparks MAGA Backlash Online

The suspense is finally over. Elon Musk, the visionary behind Tesla and SpaceX, officially declared the formation of a new political party on Saturday, July 5, 2025. His stated aim: to challenge the long-standing dominance of both the Republican and Democratic parties. “Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom,” the controversial tech entrepreneur announced on X (formerly Twitter) at 3:46 PM ET. By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it

The Lymow One robot lawn mower can do it all, and this Summer Sale is the best time to get one

Now that summer is here, it’s the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors before the cooler fall and winter months arrive. If you love hosting backyard gatherings, you know how much work it takes to prepare your yard for these parties. And while the warm weather is perfect for relaxing, it can be challenging when you’re pushing a heavy lawnmower around for hours.

Is It Time to Stop Protecting the Grizzly Bear?

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. In the early 1900s, long before smartphones and selfie sticks, tourists flocked to Yellowstone National Park—not for the geysers or scenery, but for a grotesque show: a nightly spectacle of grizzly bears raiding cafeteria scraps from open-pit landfills like desperate, starving pirates. The bears were in dangerous proximity to humans: Hungry bears tore at open car windows. Tourists posed a little too close with

French City of Lyon Kicks Out Microsoft

European countries have been growing increasingly wary of relying on Microsoft for critical government and public sector services. Concerns about data privacy, digital sovereignty, and potential governmental surveillance have led many to question the viability of depending on an American tech giant for sensitive infrastructure. Many worry that dependence on Microsoft could leave them vulnerable to sudden service interruptions or the risk of sensitive data being accessed without consent. This g

Elon Musk Teases ‘Fireworks’ as Trump Signs His ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’

Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, spent the Fourth of July doing what he does best: stirring speculation, igniting controversy, and hinting at big political moves. All from behind a keyboard. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO kicked off America’s Independence Day with a patriotic post on his platform X (formerly Twitter): “🇺🇸🇺🇸 Happy birthday, America! 🇺🇸🇺🇸” 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Happy birthday, America! 🇺🇸🇺🇸 — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 4, 2025 But it was his follow-up that really set off alarms: “Great day for som

Being too ambitious is a clever form of self-sabotage

There is a moment, just before creation begins, when the work exists in its most perfect form in your imagination. It lives in a crystalline space between intention and execution, where every word is precisely chosen, every brushstroke deliberate, every note inevitable, but only in your mind. In this prelapsarian state, the work is flawless because it is nothing: a ghost of pure potential that haunts the creator with its impossible beauty. This is the moment we learn to love too much. We becom

Supergiant’s latest Hades II patch is likely its last before launch

Despite it having upward of 61,000 reviews on Steam, Hades II isn’t actually out yet. The sequel to Supergiant Games’ hugely successful roguelite dungeon crawler has been in early access on PC for over a year, and even the early builds were extremely polished and content-rich for what is still a work-in-progress game. But we (and Switch owners) have been waiting patiently for that 1.0 release date, and it looks like it might be just around the corner, with Supergiant confirming that the latest U

I tried the controversial Android phone that's got the internet buzzing - and left impressed

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET Nothing's new flagship phone is its most expensive and risky product yet. At $799, the Nothing Phone 3 no longer undercuts its midrange competitors. Instead, the handset takes on the likes of the iPhone Pro, Pixel Pro, and Galaxy S phones of the world with a striking design, functional AI features, and fine software tuning. Also: I tested Nothing's first over-ear headphones, and they made my AirPods Max look boring And it does so while sacrificing its most iconic feature,

See Which Restaurants Have The Most Attractive Diners – According to AI! I scraped millions of Google Maps restaurant reviews, and gave each reviewer's profile picture to an AI model that rates how hot they are out of 10. This map shows how attractive each restaurant's clientele is. Red means hot, blue means not.The model is certainly biased. It's certainly flawed. But we judge places by the people who go there.

This Is Why Tesla’s Robotaxi Launch Needed Human Babysitters

Whether due to consumer backlash or an aging EV lineup, or both, Tesla sales have again seen a global plunge, this time 13 percent last quarter compared to the previous year—proof that the electric automaker hasn’t yet turned around a dismal year that saw public opinion of controversial CEO Elon Musk plummet. It could mean Tesla faces a second straight year of falling sales. And yet: Tesla is still the world’s most valuable automaker by market capitalization, worth some $990 billion. At least s

Cluely’s ARR doubled in a week to $7M, founder Roy Lee says. But rivals are coming.

Cluely’s revenue has skyrocketed to about $7 million in ARR since it launched its new enterprise product a week ago, founder Roy Lee told TechCrunch. “Every single person who has a meeting or an interview is testing this out.” Cluely, one of Silicon Valley’s most-talked-about startups, offers products that use AI to analyze online conversations, deliver real-time notes, provide context, and suggest questions to ask.

Everyone in tech has an opinion about Soham Parekh

You got into Y Combinator, raised $20 million from a16z, and then exited to Meta? That’s cool, I guess. But did Soham Parekh apply to work at your startup? There is now a new badge of honor for startup founders: your proximity to one previously unknown Indian software engineer named Soham Parekh. The Anna Delvey of Silicon Valley was outed on Wednesday when former Mixpanel CEO Suhail Doshi posted on X to warn fellow founders about Parekh. “PSA: there’s a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who

Flounder Mode – Kevin Kelly on a different way to do great work

Kevin Kelly isn’t known for one ‘big thing’, and doesn’t aspire to be. He’s as intelligent, hard-working, ambitious, and prescient as history’s most iconic entrepreneurs—only without any interest in building a unicorn himself. Instead, in his words, he works “Hollywood style”—in a series of creative projects. What follows is a sampling of his life’s work. Kelly was an editor for the Whole Earth Catalog in the early 1980s, helped start WELL, one of the first online communities, in 1985, and co-f

U.S. to Dump Billions of Flies From Planes to Fight ‘Man-Eater’ Maggots

The U.S. The Department of Agriculture has declared war on a flesh-eating maggot that infests wildlife, livestock, household pets, and, in rare cases, people. The battle strategy? Dumping billions of sterilized flies out of planes over Mexico and Texas. Using this tried-and-true biological control technique, the USDA aims to stamp out the larvae of the New World screwworm (NWS) fly, a tropical parasite. This invasive pest’s scientific name is Cochliomyia hominivorax, which literally means “man-

Nothing Says the Phone 3 Isn’t One Big Gimmick, but I’m Not So Sure

Nothing CEO Carl Pei wants you to know one thing: the startup’s smartphones aren’t just relying on a schtick. The Phone 3, which was finally unveiled this week after seemingly never-ending leaks and teasers, is being billed as the company’s “true flagship,” which means… to be honest, I don’t know what the hell it means. But it’s clear that Nothing sees it as its most premium phone yet, which is evident not just through its own messaging but also its starting price. The Phone 3 costs $800—more th

What Is Apple One? A Breakdown of Plans, Pricing, and Included Services

Big tech companies are always looking for new ways to tie us into their ecosystems, but there is something to be said for the simplicity of a single monthly subscription. Apple One bundles several Apple services into one payment, which is cheaper than subscribing to the same services individually. If you already subscribe to Apple Fitness+ and News+, it’s a great deal for you. The question is whether it can entice anyone using a mix of first- and third-party services to switch completely to Appl
