"My kids — they like the Blizzards," DeSantis said, as he ordered one for himself. "They like cones, too, but that gets very messy in the car, so we try to stay away from that." Trump had visited the fast food chain and seemed unfamiliar with the famous ice cream treat, asking "What the hell is a Blizzard?" DeSantis, flanked by Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig, also used the campaign stop to praise the state's governor, Republican Kim Reynolds, shortly before she signed a six-week abortion ban into law. "She’s done so much, over so many different issues, to make this one of the best-governed states in the country," DeSantis told reporters.

DES MOINES — Friendly chatter between moderator Tucker Carlson and Republican presidential hopeful Asa Hutchinson quickly devolved during an onstage interview Friday at the Family Leadership Summit, a major gathering of social conservatives. Right off the bat, Carlson asked the former Arkansas governor if his stance had changed from when he vetoed a ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth in 2021. As Carlson repeatedly questioned him about care for transgender minors, Hutchinson asked Carlson to move on. Tensions escalated further when the former Fox News host pivoted to vaccines, asking how many shots Hutchinson had received. While speaking to reporters after his interview with Carlson, Hutchinson said he nevertheless believes he won over Iowa voters.

SummaryLaw Firms FTX founder allegedly misappropriated customer funds for European acquisitionFTX failed to find a buyer for the company in bankruptcy saleNEW YORK, July 13 (Reuters) - Bankrupt crypto exchange FTX sued insiders at FTX Europe AG late Wednesday, seeking to recover $323 million that FTX had invested in an ill-fated expansion into European crypto markets. After FTX filed for bankruptcy in November, it sought to sell FTX Europe, only to conclude that no buyer would offer meaningful value for the company, according to FTX. FTX acquired Digital Assets for nearly $400 million in three transactions in 2020 and 2021, hoping to obtain regulatory approvals and expand into European markets. FTX filed for bankruptcy protection in November, saying it was unable to completely repay customers who had deposited funds on its exchange. Prosecutors have charged Bankman-Fried, 31, with stealing billions of dollars in FTX customer funds to cover losses at its affiliated hedge fund Alameda Research.

JWST spotted ten galaxies connected by an invisible cosmic filament. This is the earliest filament ever seen of the so-called "cosmic web," a mysterious network that connects the galaxies in our universe. Galaxies are connected by a cosmic webAn artist's impression of the cosmic web, showing how there are invisible areas of high density of dark and regular matter connecting the galaxies in the universe. Peering back into the early stages of the universe can give us a sense of how galaxies appeared within this mysterious network. The ASPIRE team hopes the picture will shed more light on the cosmic web, but it is also very interested in how early quasars were formed in the universe's infancy.

Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson named Carlos Cardona as her new campaign manager on Friday — her third campaign manager since she launched her bid for the presidency in March. “We’re going to spend some serious time in New Hampshire,” Cardona told NBC News. Cardona ran for a New Hampshire state House seat in both 2018 and 2020 but fell short in both elections. “Bernie Sanders won in New Hampshire, progressives win in New Hampshire,” Cardona said. As for Williamson’s unusually high turnover at the top of her campaign, Cardona says his predecessors left the campaign due to personal reasons.

Africa Style: With Freedom Came Fashion Flair

Many years ago, I worked as a salesperson at Hugo Boss in the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. But what I most relished selling was men’s suits, because a good suit is often transformative. Walking into the new “Africa Fashion” exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, I felt that I was witnessing something wondrous, something more surprising than just an individual’s restyling. On an adjacent wall are the flags of all 54 countries in Africa, their insignia and heraldry explained. “Fashion, music and the visual arts drew on formerly marginalized traditions, creating innovative forms that looked toward future self-rule.”

LONDON, June 19 (Reuters) - JLR said on Monday it has partnered with supply chain mapping and risk analytics firm Everstream Analytics, which will embed artificial intelligence into the British luxury carmaker's system to help avert future global supply issues. The new AI technology, JLR said, will allow it to monitor its supply chain in real-time and protect the production of its current models and next generation of electric vehicles (EVs). JLR, a unit of India's Tata Motors (TAMO.NS) said Everstream's technology has already enabled it to avoid disruption at global freight ports to deliver vehicles to clients. In a post-pandemic world full of supply chain snarls, a growing group of startups and established logistics firms have created a multi-billion dollar industry to apply AI and machine learning to help businesses minimise disruption. JLR was hit particularly hard by a global shortage of semiconductor chips that forced major carmakers to curtail production of certain models.

Microsoft shares climbed to a record Thursday after analysts at JPMorgan Chase touted the software maker's growth prospects in artificial intelligence. AI has been a hot topic all year, after Microsoft-backed OpenAI in November released the ChatGPT chatbot, which quickly went viral. In the past four quarters, Microsoft has generated almost $208 billion in total revenue. Negative sentiment around cloud growth and a contracting PC market led to pessimism on Wall Street last year. But the excitement around AI in addition to the cost-cutting measures that tech companies implemented produced a renewed bullishness.

The future is DeFiDecentralized finance (DeFi) has gained significant traction in recent years, offering a new paradigm for financial services that are open, transparent, and community-driven. DeFi adoption will significantly enhance the concept of "embedded finance," and we will see more integration of financial services with traditionally non-financial services or products. Foresee market structure trends and shape them proactivelyWhile fintech's growth in developed markets is undeniable, even more significant potential for growth lies in developing economies. This will empower customers to make payments swiftly and conveniently, ultimately driving higher adoption and usage of fintech solutions. With the fintech industry projected to reach $492.81 billion by 2028, the time to start looking into tomorrow is now.

The majority of family offices don't have a wealth succession plan, according to a new UBS survey. One family office exec told UBS discussing inheritance is "very difficult." That revelation comes despite 63% of family offices acknowledging that supporting the generational transfer of wealth was their main purpose. However, I think it's safe to say that most rich people who establish a family office do it for a handful of reasons. Family offices did seem to agree on one thing: They won't be taking a pay cut.

A Poisonous Cold War Legacy That Defies a Solution

From 1950 to 1990, the U.S. Energy Department produced an average of four nuclear bombs every day, turning them out of hastily built factories with few environmental safeguards that left behind a vast legacy of toxic radioactive waste. Nowhere were the problems greater than at the Hanford Site in Washington State, where engineers sent to clean up the mess after the Cold War discovered 54 million gallons of highly radioactive sludge left from producing the plutonium in America’s atomic bombs, including the one dropped on the Japanese city of Nagasaki in 1945. Cleaning out the underground tanks that were leaching poisonous waste toward the Columbia River just six miles away and somehow stabilizing it for permanent disposal presented one of the most complex chemical problems ever encountered. Engineers thought they had solved it years ago with an elaborate plan to pump out the sludge, embed it in glass and deposit it deep in the mountains of the Nevada desert.

Smith also said AI isn’t as “mysterious” as many think, adding it is getting more powerful. Regarding concerns about AI’s power, Smith said any technology that exists today looked dangerous to people who lived before it. Job disruptions due to AI will unfold over years, not months, Smith said. “For most of us, the way we work will change,” Smith said. “Let’s use six months to go faster.”Smith suggested an executive order where the government itself says it will only buy AI services from companies that are implementing AI safety protocols.
