The artificial intelligence-fueled arms race is only just beginning, and UBS views Broadcom as well positioned to come out a winner. Analyst Timothy Arcuri reiterated his buy rating and $925 price target on shares after the company's fiscal third-quarter results, calling the semiconductor a "prime beneficiary" of the AI fight. Broadcom shares have surged 65% this year as investors go all in on AI. Looking ahead, Arcuri expects ongoing AI revenue growth into the 2024 fiscal year to help Broadcom move past persisting end market weakness and a difficult demand environment. AI revenue is expected to surpass 25% of semis revenue in the coming year.

If anything, armed Black protesters such as the Black Panthers triggered cries for stronger gun control laws, not looser ones. He’s a very smart man, blessed with superior communication skills, yet he constantly exposes his ignorance, his cynicism or both. The bottom line is this: When a political class still broadly believes in policing dishonesty, the nation can manage the negative effects of widespread civic ignorance. When the political class corrects itself, the people will tend to follow. But when key members of the political class abandon any pretense of knowledge or truth, a poorly informed public is simply unequipped to hold them to account.

WASHINGTON, Aug 30 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden on Wednesday said no one could deny that the world is facing a climate crisis, after Hurricane Idalia plowed through the Big Bend region of Florida and forced millions of residents to evacuate. "I don't think anybody can deny the impact of the climate crisis anymore," Biden told reporters at the White House. Some Republican lawmakers, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is running to win the Republican presidential nomination, continue to oppose a slew of measures aimed at curbing emissions. Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy called "the climate agenda" a "hoax" during last week's GOP debate. On Tuesday, she told reporters that extreme storms were part of a "new normal" that Americans are facing, adding that investments in resilience and mitigation were critical to prepare for future storms.

Trump's 2020 campaign even made just shy of $500,000 by trolling liberals who wanted to ban plastic straws.

In a sign of his extraordinary hold on his party, just two rivals at the first Republican presidential debate said they would not support him as the nominee if he were convicted. Haley has gained a reputation in the Republican Party as a solid conservative who has the ability to address issues of gender and race in a more credible fashion than many of her peers.

GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy suggested an additional criteria for college applicants. He said colleges should screen applicants on their physical fitness, such as their 1-mile run time. Ramaswamy noted the idea wasn't part of his campaign platform, but is a "serious proposal." To combat this, the candidate said that College Board should "add a physical fitness section to the SAT, instead of just math and reading sections," and noted the section could possibly resemble the former Presidential Fitness Test which consisted of a 1-mile run, sit-ups, pull-ups, and more. Ramaswamy has also previously noted that if he makes it to the White House, he'd tap Musk as a potential adviser.

Rapper Eminem has demanded Vivek Ramaswamy stop using his music on the campaign trail — and the Republican presidential candidate looks ready to let the issue go. In a cease-and-desist order sent to Ramaswamy's lawyer on Aug. 23, music publisher BMI said Eminem took issue with the use of his music during Ramaswamy's campaign events. In response, the Ramaswamy campaign signaled the GOP hopeful will not perform the song again. To the American people's chagrin, we will have to leave the rapping to the real slim shady," a spokesperson for the Ramaswamy campaign told NBC News. Many politicians have been sent similar cease-and-desist orders in past election cycles over their campaign song choices.
