These ads go in the same category as brazen, easily disproven lies after ICE killings. It’s not about persuasion. It’s a display of power. They could have passed them off as PAC-funded. They added “paid for by the U.S. government” because they want us to know they can break the law with impunity.

Anthropic IPO leak is insane
Company Discussion
Anthropic's leaked IPO filing shows $4.6B of 2025 revenue, a $42B net loss, Q2 2026 revenue of $11.5B, $518B of planned computing spend, and a target valuation near $2T.

Anthropic is literally projecting a -3.9:1 evaluation to profit ratio and a 174:1 evaluation to revenue ratio and then asking for two trillion dollars. I feel like I’m going insane.

I’m pulling out of the NASDQ. These numbers just don’t make sense anymore. CEOs called their own investors insane during the dot com crash for investing in companies with a 10:1 revenue to profit ratio.
We live in some bizzaro world where a company will burn hundreds of billions per quarter and we have legions of investors foaming at the mouth to throw another two trillion into the fire.

I feel like at one point there was genuinely an argument for speculating on growth, but these numbers are out of control.

When I taught at an all-boys prep school, we'd do an activity where I had them list every sexual term they could think of. They'd often laugh, as many were absurd things meant for Urban Dictionary. We'd then go through how many terms were violent (~85%) and how many were male-dominant (~90%).

SCOTUS’s shadow docket strikes again. Third-country removals are back on, using a policy that two federal courts have now ruled is unlawful.

CORDER LIST: 609 U.S.)
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2026
26-426
(26A406)
CERTIORARI GRANTED
DEPT. OF HOMELAND SEC., ET AL. V. D.V.D., ET AL.
The application for stay presented to Justice Jackson and
by her referred to the Court is granted. The February 25, 2026 order and judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, case No. 1:25-cv-10676, are stayed.
The application is also treated as a petition for a writ of certiorari, and the petition is granted. The parties are directed to brief and argue the following questions: (1) Whether the district court had jurisdiction over Respondents' claims.
(2) Whether the
district court had
authority to enter classwide
declaratory
relief
and APA vacatur under 8 U. S. C. §1252 (f) (1).
(3) Whether the Government's Guidance on third-country removals
is unlawful under 8 U. S. C. §1231(b), the Due Process Clause, or
FARRA/CAT and its
implementing regulations. (4) Such other
questions that the Government determines are appropriate for the
proper disposition of the case. The Clerk is directed to
establish a briefing schedule that will allow the case to be
argued in the December 2026 argument session. The stay shall
terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court.
Justice Sotomayor, Justice Kagan, and Justice Jackson would
deny the application for stay.
