Two landmark trials underway this week against social media giants are shining a spotlight on the potential dangers of minors' digital lives. In New Mexico, Meta faces allegations of failing to protect children from exploitation. Meanwhile, a high-profile "bellwether trial" in Los Angeles seeks to determine if platforms like Instagram and YouTube are designed to get children addicted to their content. Maurine Molak, co-founder of Parents SOS and David's Legacy Foundation, joins the Rundown to tell the story of her son, who tragically took his life ten years ago following intense cyberbullying and what she describes as a crippling addiction to online platforms.The Trump Administration says it is focused on affordability, specifically making it easier to buy a home. Bill Pulte, Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), joins to discuss his mission to lower interest rates and tackle the housing supply crisis. He also addresses a popular new policy push aimed at ensuring the American dream of homeownership remains accessible to families rather than corporations.

Elon Musk just pulled off the biggest merger in corporate history but is the $1.25 trillion SpaceX–xAI deal a stroke of visionary genius, or a financial sleight of hand?In this episode of Market Maker, Anthony and Piers unpack what's really behind the numbers. Is this bold vertical integration or just a clever way to funnel cash into a billion-dollar-a-month AI burn machine? They dig into Starlink's role as the cash engine, xAI's financial reality, and why Musk is using a rare “triangular merger” to shield liabilities.They also break down Musk's plan for space-based data centers and whether the science (and physics) actually adds up, plus how this all ties into the bigger Muskonomy: Grok, Optimus, robo-taxis, and orbital dominance.You'll also hear how Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, J.P.

Chicago has officially passed a record-breaking $16.6 billion city budget, and the impact will be felt across the city.This new budget includes hundreds of millions of dollars in new and increased taxes, affecting everything from everyday purchases to digital services, rideshares, and online activities.

In this episode of "90 Miles from Needles," host Chris Clarke looks into the contentious topic of a proposed AI data center in Imperial County, California. As the largest project of its kind proposed in the state, local residents, led by community advocates like Gilberto Manzanarez of Valle Imperial Resiste, express concerns over the establishment's potential environmental and social impacts. The discussion emphasizes the community's grassroots efforts to halt the project through public awareness and strategic mobilization against a backdrop of economic challenges in one of California's most underrepresented regions. The episode offers a first-hand account of the local opposition to the data center, with residents citing noise pollution, potential environmental degradation, and the betrayal of municipal promises regarding water and electricity resources. Gilberto Manzanarez shares insights on the movement he represents, explaining the importance of community-driven advocacy against powerful interests. The episode underscores ongoing battles for environmental justice and the struggle for local communities to safeguard their living conditions against speculative developments with uncertain long-term consequences. Key Takeaways: Gilberto Manzanarez and his organization, Valle Imperial Resiste, advocate for grassroots mobilization to oppose a proposed AI data center in Imperial County due to its potential negative impacts. Residents voiced concerns about noise pollution, diminished property values, and uncertain environmental repercussions during a contentious Imperial County Planning Commission meeting. The Planning Commission's decision to delay the project and set up workshops reflects local pushback and the effort to educate and engage the community more meaningfully in decision-making. The episode highlights broader issues surrounding data centers, including the socio-environmental considerations lacking in many current developmental plans, as seen through examples from other U.S. cities. A call for a moratorium on data center projects until comprehensive policies are in place signals a movement toward more cautious and community-focused development practices. Notable Quotes: “This is no exception. The LLC that's trying to put the project here was only established one year ago. It's a playbook that's been played out in the entire country.” “One of the things that I noticed, was that there was a lack of information that these organizations gathered, but that information never really made it out to the people.” “I come from a town called Calexico, California... I'm not putting my entire faith in electeds right now.” “We want a comprehensive policy revolving around data centers around the Imperial County.” Resources: Valle Imperial Resiste Instagram Valle Imperial Resiste Website GoFundMe Campaign for NIMBY Imperial Listeners are encouraged to tune into the full episode to grasp the complexities and emotional currents of this important local issue.Become a desert defender!: https://90milesfromneedles.com/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Automation and AI are rewriting the rules of work, leaving CHROs grappling with a challenge to preserve humanity that fuels innovation. When technology starts moving faster than people, the real test of leadership begins. In this episode, CHRO Katie Watson shares how she's leading an AI revolution without losing the heart of business at Western Digital, a 55-year-old tech company powering the world's data. We explore how Western Digital is modernizing every corner of its workforce—from fully automated "lights-out" factories in Thailand to AI-assisted engineering and HR systems—while protecting what makes work meaningful. Katie shares how upskilling programs have helped thousands of employees transition into higher-value roles, why "AI champions" are key to driving adoption, and how human connection must remain at the center of digital change. She also discusses how HR and business leaders can govern AI responsibly, build comfort with experimentation, and help employees see technology as a collaborator rather than a threat. The tension between innovation and humanity begins as the AI takeover lingers, but the future of work isn't about choosing between people or technology, but learning how they can grow stronger together. ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Olivier Blanchard attributes this surge to A.I.'s continued growth, with big players like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), Apple (AAPL), and Amazon (AMZN) competing for dominance as all report earnings this week. Blanchard is bullish on Microsoft's AI partnership with OpenAI and Amazon's AlexaPlus, but has reservations about Tesla's (TSLA) ability to scale its Robotaxi ambitions. Meanwhile, Apple (AAPL) briefly hit a $4 trillion market cap, and AMD secured a $1 billion partnership with the US Department of Energy, solidifying its position in A.I. inference.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
