Canada & Greenland & the Panama Canal, Oh Trump!1/8/25
Description
In a news conference lasting over an hour at Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Trump discussed the addition of Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada to the United States. Axios senior political reporter Marc Caputo explains that after over a decade of Donald Trump in American headlines, the public should take him seriously–at least some of the time. Trump also weighed in on the changes underway at Meta, including the shift from third party fact checking to a community notes model. Facebook’s first general counsel and former chief privacy officer Chris Kelly discusses what Mark Zuckerberg’s original intentions were, with his platform, and whether social media platforms should be “arbiters of truth.” Plus, fires continue to spread near Los Angeles, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has projected a timeline for useful quantum computing.
