The EU rushed to regulate AI. Many US states are now doing the same. Now, the EU is working on their own "moratorium." We don't have to also learn this lesson the hard way. https://t.co/RU41z263IK

The choice is between a moratorium on the state-level regulation of an interstate technology and a moratorium on innovation.
"Investment in AI is helping to make the U.S. Economy the 'HOTTEST' in the World — But overregulation by the States is threatening to undermine this Growth Engine..." - President Donald J. Trump

Listening, @FDA?
I lost my mom at age 10. She never got to see a breakthrough like this one from @RocheDiaUSA. Imagine what’s still out there, if we cut the red tape and let science move faster. https://t.co/wwfoQmeTTf

What if the relevant market for everything is just "time you spend doing stuff"?
Not to make it about the broadcast ownership reforms going on at the FCC but...

I’ve been advocating for taxpayers for more than 32 years, I have never met somebody more committed and more passionate about her job to be a taxpayer watchdog. Isabel has been attacked and criticized, yet she keeps going. She is THE model for an effective IG.

Except the ACA’s spend reqs are just leading to insurers overestimating claims to pad premiums. Let’s end this really dumb system.
This is dumb. Really dumb. Really Really Dumb. Why? Because when you give it to Ins Carriers under the ACA, they have to spend at least 85pct of it on care for plan holders. When sent to people's HSAs, there is no assurance that the money will be spent on healthcare costs

Sure, the @USPS can get more revenue this way. But the costs will outpace the revenue with current labor model. Bring in the part-timers!

HIPAA had good goals but reqs are way too expensive and holding back innovation.

Breaking down @USPS 2025 financials and suggestions for reform:

Reform is long overdue at America's mail carrier.
The @USPS lost $9 billion in 2025, which is somehow an improvement from last year's loss of $9.5 billion!

All of these same objections were made about basically every technology of convenience and entertainment. From 1988, about Photoshop: "Technology makes it difficult maybe even impossible to tell what's real and what's not." https://t.co/k4FKegGiTI
AI is going to wipe out at least 25 million jobs in the next 5 to 10 years. Probably much more. It will destroy every creative field. It will make it impossible to discern reality from fiction. It will absolutely obliterate what’s left of the education system. Kids will go

From 2024: "Right now by law there’s no way to detach that loan from the property that serves as its collateral and reattach it to a new property." An option to pay a "portability exercising fee" could benefit everyone. https://t.co/ZzDIaA9kzy

Mortgages that offer portability for a fee could help thaw the housing market.

The IRS won’t stop trying to take more from taxpayers. After losing AbbVie v. Commissioner, it’s appealing to block businesses from deducting merger costs. Enough with the shakedown—let entrepreneurs grow. @RossAMarchand in @WashTimes:

The IRS will stop at nothing to take whatever it can from businesses, households and even nonprofit groups.

Death by a thousand cuts: FDA prescription reqs, legally unclear ACIP recs, and restrictive FDA guidance. All to undermine vaccine choice for patients.

Hey, I've seen this one before! Didn't like how it ended...
Fannie Mae set to drop its 620 credit score minimum. Mortgage giant will instead use its own analysis of risk factors. Officials say they're easing barriers to borrowing. "It's just the latest in a series of policy changes aimed at creating home ownership opportunities in the
