leaned left, who are now looking at donald trump, and you have people like mark zuckerberg, and jeff bezosat inauguration. i think thaty is -- i think that is a great thing. larry: it was not there 4 or 8 years ago, a different game, your father-in-law has changed g.o.p. and i reckon he will keep it. i thought elon musk, not really a political by, even though he has become a political figure taking some heat, elon musk is important to this story. important to this coalition. it is important to attracting kinds of people you just mentioned. >> iar, and not only that, but people who are working on behalf of the country, are those people because of elon musk, best and brightest, team at doge, i think we can be honest say our country could not exist as we had been going with the debt with the amount of money we were spending on wasteful causes, things toen to apply to americans, we didn't go on like -- condition go on like, that -- we can't go on like that we had to address this this is the beauty of what happening, the people on team doge are able to do that and we should be so grateful to al

the amazon ceo, jeff bezos, recently said that he thought we would see a world where virtually everyd have generative ai and they need to stay ahead of this. the cloud providers are offering a variety of ai models with free use cases, but they also help customers tune the model and adapted to specific needs with tools and services like secure data storage and data management to make it easier for customers to handle the large data sets required for ai models. i think that these services should be seeing additional demand with faster adoption of ai and we will be seeing these companies becoming kind of the toll roads for ai, whether it is the cloud, the tools, the developers, or the processing capacity that customers need in order to allow other customers to develop and deploy ai. jackie: we have seen comments from washington that the government plans to be more supportive when it comes to investing in artificial intelligence. how much of that initial enthusiasm for the trump venture that was announced has worn off by now? tiffany: the stargate venture i think is a flashy announcement

jeff bezos recently asked who should be the next bond? i've got some ideas.with the golden booster seat and jessie could star in another toupee. >> i believe his name is henry cadville, because he's british, handsome and looks like a spy. i agree. i think he would be great, and greg had some ideas for the bond girls. he'll tell you about those. >> greg: i was thinking, do they have to be biological girls? 30 genders. is daniel greg no longer bond? >> he's no longer bond. >> greg: i know why, but anyway, should you have james bond. if it taken over by amazon he has to drive their truck. he needs to kill villains with packing tape and instead of martini shaking not stirred he should drink gatorade from a plastic bottle that he can pee into later. just like the amazon driver. >> i thought the elbow -- >> before he said at this time one thing i have in my notes, so i can make him transsense, number one, and number two, i love henry cavville, i think he's great. plays dutton, he's very hot. >> is he in contention? >> jeanine: i don't know but i'm putting him in co

like elon musk, and nobody talks about why men harris embracing george rose and bill gates and jeff bezosst: since you bring it up, he's got a trifecta. why not go to congress and some of these things, why depend on the executive order that can be reversed by the next president? guest: we agree. but we know trump. trump feels that congress does not move fast enough for him. it would be better for him to wait. his attitude is that the american people cannot afford to wait. and wife and something in place that three or four years later another administration come in &? i agree with you, but trump is not like any president that we seen in emory never seen such a frenetic way of so many executive orders because he wants to change it, and he also knows that a lot of these things that are pushing will probably go through and become effective, and once that happens, people will billy needed to believe it is having an impact on their lives in particular may come to the economy, it will remain lace. because remember it does not matter whether it is a president or congress, their boss is the americ

change of administration of the technology companies in particular and you mention meta or amazon, jeff bezosration, you would think that their forecast would reflect the fact that there is less regulation in a little more protection from the u.s. government in particular when the getting hit by the europeans and google has for instance they get attacked in particular by the eu bureaucrats in the first time in our nation you would think i would reflect on the forecast maybe i'm over thinking about real quick on the, were still going to look at 13 to 15% in the tech center and it's true about your in america to innovate, china duplicate in europe they regulate and they do a lot of regulation microsoft is so good they lower the bar and the next time they can jump over and there's some uncertainty and it's a pro-business administration there is a lot of tailwinds you can see guidance. cheryl: another thing to receive now this moves to stargate, openai is considering building data center campuses in 16 states that as part of stargate from the trump administration openai has begun construction of

employees historically within amazon when jeff bezos was c.e.o. was excited about because they figured that was going to get a lot of money and investment and that would be a nice career path for them. the big difference with the new c.e.o., he is more disciplined. he doesn't chase as many moon shot projects. the money is less free flowing so the career plans for advancement are narrower. you layer on top of that, that amazon is trying out with the old, in with the new in terms of a reduction in management, replace more senior workers with lower level employees, and it's kind of rippling through morale. >> particularly at a time where other giants in tech are laying off, sales force, it's a difficult market. but investors want to see this belt tightening. we look at the earnings for shares expectations for thursday. >> yes, so they've had the past six quarters i believe of increasing profits, and they're expecting the same when they report tomorrow. that's the thing. he has been pleasing wall street, but making the work force unhappy. that's a cal

agreement for her new documentary deal that came together back in december between amazon founder jeff bezosge we are expecting bruce ratner to direct from the rush-hour movies. and the steps in the immigration crackdown and cost-cutting efforts firing 20 immigration judges from backlog courts and 13 judges that had been sworn in yet. a major legal battle that is underway in the court over the legality of trump's birthright citizenship order, the new york times op-ed believe it or not same president trump might have a case over the 14th amendment stating that the supreme court has never ruled that children born to those living illegally in the u.s. are citizens the story about the courts there is a backlog of 3.7 million cases. cheryl: the birthright citizenship, didn't donald trump forgive me wrong untrue social post about this, the reason that that was actually established because of laws going back to slavery had nothing to do with current day. and they got a lawyer. >> i'm not a lawyer and i can pretend to be one is there room to talk about this, there is room in the law to make this som

or would you try to get out of the way or jump on board to enjoy the ride that's why people like jeff bezosnd mark zuckerberg and a lot of the people used to be big democrat donors now in trump's corner hoping to cut taxes and deregulate make things positive for the business and the overall economy. >> i wonder if voters approve of the president himself making money out of his presidency. the coin for example making money there and selling product because he is the president, do you think voters approve of that. >> i don't think they care too much. i think there is so much big stuff going on there focused on that every two or three hours is another big story to focus on the great set of gaza be the small example who saw that coming before the press conference i think things like this is selling coin or trinkets or whatever i wouldn't get to focus on that is up to 54% popularity according to the polls citing maybe even 60% he's never been as popular as he is today. he's overseas for a week. i gotta say trump is the talk of the world. i was in latin america, i don't speak spanish but the word

a lot of people scoffed at jeff bezos and amazon and what apple and steve jobs are doing.im: those companies had big valuations in the part of the cycle, but what everybody forgets about amazon is the 90% plus declines they have had in 2003, 2007, 2008. for me to tell investors that is fine -- and when you are down 95%, only if you are still adding to the position. number two, we forget about america online, yahoo!, s&p. romaine: i still remember to this day. but enron, worldcom -- how am i supposed to believe that all of these companies trying to sell their ai product and giving numbers to what they are selling are on the up and up, particularly because we do not have a jim chanos out there rattling the cages? jim: i am still rattling occasionally, romaine. but you underscore an important part of the fundamental role short-sellers play, whether fund managers or activists. they are still the only ones incentivized in real time, other than journalists, the point this stuff out. scarlet: as we wrap up our conversation, if investors are less sensitive to valuations, and that

had to sit outside in a secondary room behind the president was elon musk, mark zuckerberg and jeff bezos got out oversight over these guys especially when they have the keys to the entire government. >> was the conversation in the democratic caucus? is a robust discussion over how to play the next couple of years, this is jared coleman who said i don't think it's effective so far. i'm frustrated. if you make everything five, then eventually nothing is devcon five. if you rush out and say this is like dictatorial or illegal, he might end up being wrong and it undermines your credibility, you think democrats risk saying this is the end of the world when at times it's not? >> i think it is time to pick and choose our battles. part of the presidents method here and strategy is to plug them with a ton of stuff. i was making canada the 50 presidents state, there's a lot of things we don't need to respond to because number one, they are not going to happen for number two, the president is doing work to make sure people think he's king and can do whatever he wants so wanting to know you don't pl

it is like in this country suddenly jeff bezos disappearing and being quiet. he is not quiet these days, but just disappearing these people. i think we will put steve jobs in the cooler for a while. that happens in china. larry: the governor of south carolina disappeared. kara: right. [laughter] kara: so that is one of the issues. the other one is that, mark, absolutely, in an interview with me, he put out this xi ora media argument. we are the national champions. the chinese have run it. which is true. he said that to me and i go, i don't like the choice. i will take you up easily but it is like a bad date. i have to take the bad or worse. in the case of facebook, they are. they are information thieves. that is what they are. it is in a different interest from what is happening in china. i am concerned that we allow a foreign government -- the could not by cnn, cbs, the washington post, or anything else, so why should they be able to have -- larry: started showing cats playing the piano, i would be concerned the chinese government would be interested in buyin

>> well, of course we've seen that, and we saw that with the beta that -- way that folks like jeff bezos zuckerberg and others lined up in the pews to worship at the church of donald trump on inauguration day. i have a hope that corporate america can be a bull with work against extremism. -- bulwark against extremism. that is not proving to be the case. i will say that i don't think -- i think a lot of these pieces of litigation and these efforts by the trump world are very inappropriate and chilling and frightening. i don't think a we can take as much as we might want to take from from news of these settlements, because litigation is very expensive. it brings about discovery. and so, to me, i'm unhappy that abc decided to strike that settlement deal with trump. i'm unhappy that meta decided to do this. but in the case of a company like meta, it is a multibillion dollar company, and avoiding litigation by paying out $25 million, i don't like it, but we have to be clear about what conclusions we can draw from that move. howard: yeah. it is true that the mere filing of a lawsuit is very ex

and you have people like mark zuckerberg coming over, jeff bezos.ere at the inauguration. silicon valley has been seen to team up with donald trump as a well, and i think that's a great thing. larry: yes. and, of course, none of that was there four years ago or eight years ago. your father has, your father-in-law if has changed the gop, and i reckon he's going to keep it change changed. i just thought elon musk, who's not really a political guy even though he's become a very political figure, taking some heat, but elon musk is important to this story. it's important to thislation bigs. -- coalition. it's important to attracting the kind of people you just mentioned. >> yeah. and not only that, but people who are working on behalf of the country. the are those people because of elon musk the best and the brightest, the team he has at doge, look, our country could not exist as we have been going with the debt, with the amount of money that we're spending on these wasteful causes and things that don't even apply to americans. we can't go on like that.

like, elon musk, no one talks about biden and harris embracing george soros and bill gates and jeff bezos. host: what about -- he's got a trifecta. why not go to congress with some of these things? why depend on an executive order that can be reversed by the next president? guest: we agree. but we know president trump. president trump feels that coress does not move fast enough for him. it would be better for him to wait two or three months. his attitude is that the american people cannot afford to wait two or three months and why put something in place at three or four years later, another administration can come in if there is a new congress? i agree with you but donald trump does not like any president that we have seen in reit -- he's not like any president has seen in recent memory. we have not seen such a frenetic way of so many executive orders because he wants to change it and he also knows he has more experience that a lot of these things that he's pushing will probably go through and become effective and once that happens, people really begin to believe that it's having an impac

involved in irs contractor who illegally leaked the tax returns of president trump, elon musk and jeff bezos to the delight of many on the other side of the aisle. that person, fortunately, though, is now in jail which proves the point that we have laws in place to take care of this. this is a thinly veiled attempt to prevent doge from doing the constructive job of finding waste. this is an amendment that says it's okay to spend $2 million in guatemala on sex-change surgery, this around amendment that says look the other way, transgender comic books in peru is gate. this is an amendment that says it's okay to do transoperations in colombia. this is to spend money -- this is not on crazy, loony, left-wing ideas. i am done. mr. coons: how much time do i have remaining? the presiding officer: all time is expired. mr. coons. i will accept a voice vote. the presiding officer: all in favor say aye. the nos appear to have it. the nos do have it. the amendment is not agreed to. mr. thune: mr. president. the presiding officer: majority leader. mr. thune: i ask unanimous consent that the following ame

almost never will they say jeff bezos's. almost never will they say some tv star.hey will almost always say somebody that has impacted them in some really, really important way and very often those people are not famous. they don't have dads money, they don't have their name on the side of the building. and there are thousands of americans who have shaped the course of history, who have changed who the united states has become through their actions, but for a variety of reasons their stories have not been recorded in those boldfaced fonts, history textbooks. and it is their stories that are just incredibly interesting to me and it turns out they are interesting to other people. >> you tell the story about how you got interested in story -- history. what was it? >> i started out as a child, as a 12-year-old with a paper route in northern minnesota where i grew up, and it required me to get up at the frigid predawn hours of the minnesota winter, sometimes 30 degrees below zero. it is 4:45 in the morning, very dark and cold. difficult to motivate yourself to get out o

. >> 5.52 is the time jeff bezos is aerospace company. blue origin is laying off about 1000 workers. that's about 10% of its workforce. the company says it grew too fast and became less focused. the cuts will reportedly be in engineering research, development and project management and general managers as well. blue origin was founded in 2002 years before elon musk's competitor spacex blue origin plans to continue work on a spacecraft called blue moon, which nasa has selected to be part of its artemis program. returning humans, too. humans, too. >> we tak i'm not happy with the way that pg&e handled the wildfires. yeah. yeah. i totally, totally understand. we're adding a ton of sensors. as soon as something comes in contact with the power line, it'll turn off so that there's not a risk that it's gonna fall to the ground and start a fire. okay. and i want you to be able to feel the improvements. we've been able to reduce wildfire risk from our equipment by over 90%. that's something i want to believe. [skateboard sounds] >> we're back at 5

it is like in this country suddenly jeff bezos disappearing and being quiet. he is not quiet these days, but just disappearing these people. i think we will put steve jobs in the cooler for a while. that happens in china. larry: the governor of south carolina disappeared. kara: right. [laughter] kara: so that is one of the issues. the other one is that, mark, absolutely, in an interview with me, he put out this xi ora media argument. we are the national champions. the chinese have run it. which is true. he said that to me and i go, i don't like the choice. i will take you up easily but it is like a bad date. i have to take the bad or worse. in the case of facebook, they are. they are information thieves. that is what they are. it is in a different interest from what is happening in china. i am concerned that we allow a foreign government -- the could not by cnn, cbs, the washington post, or anything else, so why should they be able to have -- larry: started showing cats playing the piano, i would be concerned the chinese government would be interested in buyin

conform to what donald trump wants, because they just don't want regulatory issues, whether it's jeff bezosat the l.a. times, you're seeing this having a chilling effect. people don't want to for whatever reasons. most of the time, business reasons, they don't want to be in combat with the white house. and so by doing this, by making an example out of this press, i think it makes it clear that if you do not, if you do not obey, if you do not fall into your position, we will take retaliatory action, in this case, limiting access. now in terms of is freedom of the press itself going to go away tomorrow? no, i think obviously the protect that it's possible the courts will restore the ap's access here. but it certainly having an effect. >> oliver darcy, thank you very much as always for coming to the sunday show and more of the sunday show and more of the sunday show on msnbc (man) got one more antoine.

and so if you look at people like jeff bezos or mark zuckerberg, who have sort of fallen all over themselves to obey in advance. you also see some clever rationalizations and some real rationality. right. bezos is protecting his businesses during trump's first term. trump went after amazon to punish the washington post. zuckerberg is using what i call the zeitgeist argument. it's not even so much a direct threat as, look, we're working in a different culture now and we have to adjust. that's good for business. some of these arguments are actually values based. we have to protect our employees. we have to protect our shareholders. these are all good reasons as far as they go. they're good tactical reasons. uh, there's only one reason not to obey, which is that this obeyance is what builds autocracy. if people withdraw their participation, if everybody acted like the seven legal officials who resigned over the department of justice's order to drop charges against new york mayor eric adams, if everybody acted like that, trump wouldn't be able to do what he's doing. but most people are obeying.

altman said, "no, if i wanted a burn, i'd just turn on a tesla." [ audience ohs ] [ laughter ] then jeff bezosthis doesn't reflect well on either of you." [ light laughter ] then mark zuckerberg said, "oh, shut up, jeff. i can see my reflection in your head." [ laughter ] and president trump said, "enough already. hey, if you're all here, then who's getting me my diet coke?" and then everyone said, "oh, yes, sir! right away, sir!" [ laughter ] and that's -- got that settled. "yes. we'll get -- no, i'll get it. you get it." you guys see this? a new study found that taking ozempic could lead to vision problems. how cruel. you finally lose weight and now you're seeing double. [ laughter ] when they heard the alternative to ozempic is exercise, people were just like, "well, just how blind are we talking here?" [ laughter ] well, listen to this. mcdonald's sales have dropped to their lowest level since the pandemic. >> steve: ooh. >> jimmy: yeah, turns out they lost a lot of money after grimace started taking ozempic.

jeff. but bezos is aerospace company.lue origin is laying off about 1000 workers, about 10% of its workforce. the company said it grew too fast and became less focused as a result. the cuts will reportedly be an engineering research development, project management and general managers. origin was founded in 2002 years before elon musk competitors, spacex origin plans to continue work on a spacecraft called blue moon, which nasa has selected to be part of the artemis program. still ahead on the kron 4 morning news, a long-lost silent hill thought to be gone forever has just resurfaced. >> a look at what's behind this incredible discovery. and after the break, the california highway patrol is looking to fill hundreds of positions. they're focusing on a specific group of a specific group of applicants. that what happens... when an unstoppable force... meets an immovable raccoon? attack! bark! attack! it's not easy taking out the trash. that's why you need... strength that's anything but ordinary. hefty hefty hefty. >> i have

the search for a new 007 is on jeff bezos recently asking fans who should be the next bond. well, i've got some ideas. greg could star in the man with the golden booster seat, and jesse could star in die another toupee. >> ooh. >> very nice. >> i didn't really write those. >> but thank you. >> was it a decent. it was pretty good. >> pretty good? yeah. so everybody wants. i believe his name is henry cavill. cavill. because he's british and he's handsome and he looks like a spy. i agree, i think he'd be great. and greg had some ideas for the bond girls. and he'll tell you about those. all right. well, greg. >> well, i was thinking, you know, what? do they have to be biological girls. >> 30 genders. >> is daniel craig no longer bond? >> genders no longer bond. >> well, i know why. but anyway, they should have james bond. if it's taken over by amazon, he's got to drive the truck. right? he needs to kill villains with packing tape, you know. and instead of martini. shaken, not stirred, he should drink gatorade from a plastic bottle that he can pee into later. >> oh. >> just like

one person i don't profile is jeff bezos. he's obviously a household name and been around for more than one presidency. but he doesn't have that many interesting interactions with presidents. for that reason, i don't have the defense contracts in there, but it's not because i did not think about this them. >> do we have any other questions? please wait for the microphone. >> thank you so much. this has been a very insightful question. i'm finishing up on a biography on booker t. washington and theodore roosevelt. my question is on theodore roosevelt. do you have any portion of your book that discusses, maybe using roosevelt as an example of presidents who are perhaps very difficult to deal with because they had like an anti-corporate view or big trust busters. do you have c.e.o.'s that perhaps still tried to meet with him or use him as an example of how it would be hard to foster a connection between c.e.o.'s and presidents? >> thanks, first of all. i'm very interested in that roosevelt and booker t. relationship. because one

i'm conflating jeff bezos with mark zuckerberg, and i apologize for that. and these are two billionaires that do have something in common, which they have been sort of on the opposite side of trump. they've been trump critics. and now they have found a way, sort of an avenue to to his favor. and they've used it. >> quite an avenue. and i should note, he's not squeezing them for to improve their product, to help the american people or for free speech or for whatever. i mean, if the squeezing is squeezing is going into his presidential library or his or his back pocket. so ty cobb, who served as the top white house lawyer in trump's first administration, he is speaking out about this, he said in an interview with the journal, quote, everything he does, meaning trump is either to be vengeful or to accumulate wealth, power and adulation. all these people want a piece of him. i mean, that's his own former lawyer saying that to you guys. >> yeah, i know. it is. it is stunning. and i think that trump has personally been, particularly when you look at the tech laws
