Stocks are sliding in a global sell-off led by tech, AI, and chips, with the Nasdaq hit hardest. Fresh off its June 12 IPO, SpaceX has already swung wildly—down about $400B in market cap at one point—with focus now on its upcoming index inclusion and the first window for retail investors to sell. AI geopolitics intensifies as US officials probe whether ASML EUV lithography tech reached China, plus Five Eyes issues dire warning about imminent AI cyber attacks, highlighting stratospherically high US–China and EU–China tensions.

Pew Research has been mapping American political identity since 1987, and their 2026 typology finds nine distinct voter groups — not two. The loudest voices in US politics come from just 38% of the country, split between the far right and far left, while the majority sits somewhere messier and more complicated in the middle. Host Neeta Bidwai reflects ahead of America’s 250th anniversary and walks through the 9 political typologies, based on a survey of more than 10,000 Americans, including issues like same-sex marriage, open carry, climate change, regulation, and church-state separation. CHAPTERS00:00 Welcome and Context00:47 Pew's 40-Year Typology Project02:00 24 Questions That Divide America03:45 Nine Groups Explained04:45 No Apologies Right05:30 Faith First Conservatives06:20 The 53% Humiliation Stat07:10 Leftward Progressives vs Loyal Liberals08:30 Order and Opportunity Left09:20 Unconventional Right Breakdown10:15 Pragmatic and Polite Right11:30 Left Out Liberals12:10 Tuned Out Middle12:50 Presidential Approval by Group13:30 Immigration Policy Divides14:00 Party Diversity Breakdown14:55 Reflections at 250 Years16:58 Closing and Next EpisodeLOVE IT OR LEAVE IT?We’re trying out something new on Sundays!

Anthropic is in a full-blown standoff with the White House after the government banned foreign nationals from using Fable 5, the lab's most advanced model, with less than two hours notice. The ban followed a tip from Amazon's CEO, which is raising a lot of eyebrows given how intertwined these companies actually are. On top of that, OpenAI's audited financials just leaked, showing a $38 billion loss in 2025, and the AI price war is making a path to profitability look even harder.CHAPTERS00:00 Fable 5 Export Ban01:45 Andy Jassy's Role03:15 Anthropic vs White House History05:00 Anthropic's Defense Statement06:30 Cybersecurity Leaders Respond08:15 OpenAI's $38B Loss10:45 AI Price Wars Explained12:30 Token Cost Comparison13:45 Amazon's Data Center BreakthroughIF YOU LIKED THIS, WATCH:→ Pentagon Bans Anthropic, AI Agent Leaks, and China's Export Attacks: https://youtu.be/9lIMMjk_vHg→ Anthropic Mythos AI Too Dangerous That's the Whole Strategy: https://youtu.be/ai_oGfsNa2g→ Pentagon's Anthropic Ban is Falling Apart, Here's Why Microsoft Stepped In: https://youtu.be/u-Wm1uXi5KESOURCES & FURTHER READINGAnthropic Fable 5 Export Ban and White House Conflict• Anthropic's Official Statement on the Fable 5 and Mythos Access Suspension: https://www.anthropic.com/news/fable-mythos-access• Inside the White House-Anthropic Feud Over Fable and Mythos: https://www.theverge.com/column/951516/trump-anthropic-feud-mythos-fable-white-house• How Anthropic Was Forced to Halt Access to Its Top AI Models: https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/anthropic-halts-access-to-top-ai-models-after-u-s-ban-on-foreign-use-a4bca2cc• What the Fable 5 Export Controls Mean for US Cyber Defense: https://www.lutasecurity.com/post/the-fable-5-export-controls-harm-us-cyber-defense• Anthropic and the White House Fable Standoff Explained: https://www.axios.com/2026/06/15/anthropic-white-house-fable-mythos• Security Leaders' Open Letter Calling on the US Government to Lift the Fable Export Ban: https://freefable.org/OpenAI Financial Losses and IPO Pressure• Exclusive: OpenAI Lost Nearly 8x More in 2025 Than the Year Before: https://www.wheresyoured.at/exclusive-openai-financials/• OpenAI's Audited Financials Reveal Scale of Losses Ahead of IPO: https://www.ft.com/content/e15b0d7e-ff6b-4f16-ba7a-4068feddb828?syn-25a6b1a6=1• OpenAI Faces State Attorneys General Probe as Regulatory Pressure Mounts: https://apnews.com/article/openai-chatgpt-subpoena-attorneys-general-probe-a95894407773307fae8ae3ce9742b586AI Cost Wars and Data Center Efficiency• Why Enterprises Are Rationing AI and What That Means for OpenAI and Anthropic: https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/the-ai-price-war-is-here-piling-pressure-on-openai-and-anthropic-86e1d21b?mod=hp_lead_pos2• Amazon's Resilient Network Graphs Cut Data Center Power Use by 40%: https://www.bgr.com/2191712/amazon-data-center-breakthrough-explained/

Oil traders celebrated a peace deal and pushed prices below $80 a barrel, but that's not the whole story. Shipping companies won't move until the peace holds, minesweepers still have to clear the strait, and oil executives just told the White House prices aren't coming down anytime soon.

The US Iran memorandum is worth $300B+, and nothing in it is what it appears to be. The Strait of Hormuz is being "reopened" while Iran charges tolls, mines are still in the water, and there's no progress on nuclear talks. Israel isn't a party to any of this, energy prices are sky high, and the Pentagon needs 3+ years and US automakers' help to restock missiles after the US blew through $113B on the war.
