What is going on with Elon Musk's Twitter bid? In this BONUS episode of the Indo Daily, Irish Independent's Tech Editor, Adrian Weckler, finds out. Does Elon Musk intend to buy Twitter or not? Having already signed a contract, there are now rumblings of his wish to back out of the deal. But is this actually the case? Or is the billionaire businessman still intent on securing the social media space. Tech editor Adrian Weckler investigates.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, we begin with the vetting of Kathy - Kathy Barnette - that is. The outsider candidate who is in a three-way dogfight in the Pennsylvania GOP Senate primary. She's been largely unvetted to this point, despite the fact that election day is next week. Donald Trump, who has endorsed one of her opponents (Dr. Oz), has warned that if she wins the primary the Democrats will be very excited about the general election. Pres. Trump is probably correct here, but it is, of course, a bit ironic for him to say it. Then, we get into the latest on the baby formula shortage crisis. Reports of pallets of formula are being sent to our southern border, which is essentially a subsidy to the cartels, who smuggle children to America. Mind you, we can't even get enough formula to American stores. And that isn't the only supply chain crisis we're seeing. Intravenous contrast solution, which is necessary for all sorts of medical functions, is now in sparse supply and our dependence on China is almost entirely to blame. We explain. Plus, Pres. Biden is refusing to allow for new drilling permits despite soaring energy prices, abortion radicalism has subsumed the Democrat Party, and masks are returning in schools. All of that, plus much more in the opening of the podcast. Two guests today - first, Breitbart Tech Editor Colin Madine makes an emergency appearance to report and analyze the breaking news that Tesla CEO Elon Musk has put his deal to buy Twitter on hold. Colin is a Musk skeptic, but we all are complimentary of this move, at least as of now. We explain. Then, Breitbart Economics Editor John Carney breaks down the latest Bidenflation numbers, which were even worse than expected, and then he helps us make some sense of the baby formula shortage.
As conflict continues in Ukraine, there are invisible ‘cyber frontlines' running in parallel to the physical fighting. We hear how the country's tech scene is responding to the Russian invasion, as Mike Sapiton, Tech Editor at Forbes Ukraine gives us a view from the ground, and Professor Madeline Carr explains why cyber warfare can be particularly dangerous. A major report published this week speaks to a different kind of crisis: climate change. There are stark warnings for humanity and the planet, with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessing the impacts of global heating on people and places, as well as how we can adapt to a drastically changed world. One of its lead authors, Professor Richard Betts, reflects on the report. Russia is one of the world's biggest producers of coal, gas and oil, so what might their invasion of Ukraine, and the ensuing sanctions, mean for global energy supplies? Simon Evans, deputy editor of the climate website Carbon Brief, discusses whether we're more likely to see a push towards renewables and energy efficiency, or further reliance on fossil fuels.
