Elon Musk's Feud With President Trump Wipes 152 Billion Off Tesla's Market Cap
It only took a few hours to wipe 152 billion of value from Tesla's market cap and more than 100 million in value from TrumpCoin. The end of the bromance between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump has been brewing for weeks, but on Thursday, the breakup went nuclear. Musk took to the platform he owns, X, to lambast Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which includes provisions that restrict immigration, limit green energy subsidies, and is estimated to increase the US deficit by 2.4 trillion. Trump shot back on Truth Social, the platform he owns, to say that Musk was only against the bill because it would take away electric vehicle tax credits that Musk's company, Tesla, benefits from. It quickly devolved into dozens of posts, most of them from Musk, who claimed Trump is in the Epstein Files--which is, he claims, why they haven't been made public. Tesla's stock is now down roughly 14 percent at the time of writing, which is the biggest single-day hit to its market cap in years.

Joe Rogan warns of an apocalypse in 10 years: 'A new God is coming'
Joe Rogan has warned that the end of the world may be only 10 years away and it will come at the hands of humanity's'new God.' In what's being called one of the podcast host's best episode ever on social media, Rogan and guest Jesse Michels discussed the ominous signs that artificial intelligence (AI) has already shown signs of taking over the world. Michels, host of the American Alchemy podcast, warned about AI's deceptive nature, job-replacing power, risk of sentience, and potential to disrupt society if left unchecked. Rogan then highlighted shocking language buried in Congress's'Big Beautiful Bill' which would prohibit lawmakers from regulating the power of AI for the next 10 years. 'That's so crazy,' Rogan declared during the June 3 podcast. 'This means that US states would be blocked from enforcing laws regulating AI and automated decision systems for 10 years.
Russia vows to repair planes damaged by Ukraine in massive drone attack, claims they were 'not destroyed'
Russia is vowing Thursday to repair the warplanes damaged by Ukraine in a massive drone attack earlier this week, with an official claiming they were "not destroyed but damaged." The comments from Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov come after Ukraine said its forces destroyed 40 of Russia's most powerful bomber jets and surveillance planes in "Operation Spider's Web," a series of coordinated drone strikes Sunday penetrating deep into Russian territory. "As the defense ministry said, these aircraft were not destroyed but damaged. They will be repaired," Ryabkov was quoted telling Russia's state-run TASS news agency. However, satellite images of Russian airfields show extensive damage to the planes.
Pope makes plea for peace with Ukraine in call with Putin
Fox News contributor Dan Hoffman joins'Fox & Friends' to discuss the latest on the fallout from Ukraine's bombing of a bridge connecting Russia and Crimea and the push for NATO defense spending. Pope Leo XIV has made a direct plea for peace with Ukraine to Russian President Vladimir Putin in their first call since the American pontiff took up the highest seat in the Catholic Church last month. Following the call on Wednesday, the Vatican said the pope emphasized the "importance of dialogue" though it is unclear if he encouraged Putin to engage in direct discussions with his Ukrainian counterpart, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which the Kremlin chief has so far refused to do. While the pair also discussed humanitarian issues, prisoner exchanges and aid, Putin also apparently accused Kyiv of "escalating" the war during the phone call. An explosion is seen Tuesday, June 3, along the Kerch Bridge linking Russia and Crimea.
Longtime Trump loyalist flips on GOP's 'big, beautiful bill'
Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram has the latest on the fight over the spending bill on'Special Report.' Trump-loyalist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., dropped a bombshell this week, revealing that she had not read the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in its entirety and no longer supports it. Greene joins the growing list of President Donald Trump's staunchest House GOP allies who have come out in opposition of the bill they voted for two weeks ago. Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa., another loyal MAGA member, said Elon Musk was "right to call out House Leadership" this week. "I wish I had a nickel for every time the @freedomcaucus sounded the alarm and nobody listened, only to find out the hard way we were right all along. We expect MASSIVE improvements from the Senate before it gets back to the House," Perry said, referring to the bill he voted for.
Bug-eyed telescope ready to find Earth-smashing asteroids
Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. It's only a matter of time before a catastrophically sized asteroid barrels towards Earth again. Until very recently in human history, there was no way of knowing if one was hurtling towards us, much less do anything to alter its path. Now, international space agencies and disaster preparedness experts have powerful tools to keep watch over the skies--and the newest aide just opened its bug-inspired compound "eye." According to the European Space Agency, the Flyeye-1 telescope recently completed its "first light" test at the Italian Space Agency's Space Geodesy Center, located about 160 miles east of Naples.
GREGG JARRETT: Biden, the 'marionette president; and the case of the runaway autopen
Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy has the latest on the Department of Justice investigating former President Joe Biden's pardons and his alleged autopen usage on'The Faulkner Focus.' There is mounting evidence that Joe Biden was president in name only during much of his time in office. In his stead, a cabal of top White House staffers appears to have secretly operated a de facto presidency, making crucial decisions without a shred of constitutional authority. If proven true, it would call into question the validity of pardons and executive orders issued under his name but without his knowledge or consent. For this reason, it is imperative that Biden's closest advisers answer questions under oath and others in his orbit be forced to disclose what they knew or observed.
Ukraine crushes Putin's bombers, but can China and Russia do the same to the US?
With Operation Spider's Web, Ukraine inflicted the worst attack on Russian air power since World War II. The final damage is yet to be determined, but one tally is nine Tu-95s and three Tu-22M3 bombers gone, along with an A-50 "Mainstay" radar plane and an unlucky An-22 transport plane. Whatever the final count, the strategic impact is clear. Never before have drones taken out a big chunk of a nuclear-capable bomber force. Unlike tanks, Russian President Vladimir Putin cannot replace his bombers because none are still in production.
Russia drone strike kills 5 in Ukraine after Putin promised retaliation in Trump call
'Outnumbered' panelists weigh in after President Donald Trump announced he had a'good conversation' with Vladimir Putin, noting that peace with Ukraine will not be'immediate' as Russia'will have to respond' to the recent airfield attack. A Russian drone strike in Ukraine left at least five people dead, including a 1-year-old and his mother and grandmother, in an attack occurring just hours after President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke over the phone. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that six drones hit the city of Pryluky, sparking a rescue operation that ended in tragedy for one first responder in particular, who lost his wife, daughter and grandson in the attack. This photo provided by the Ukrainian Emergency Service shows the fire following Russia's drone attack in the Pryluky, Chernihiv region, Ukraine, on Thursday, June 5, 2025. "Last night, Russia struck Pryluky in the Chernihiv region with six attack drones. A rescue operation continued throughout the night. Unfortunately, there have been injuries and fatalities. One of the rescuers arrived to deal with the aftermath right at his own home -- it turned out that a'Shahed' drone had struck exactly his house. Tragically, his wife, daughter, and one-year-old grandson were killed. And this is already the 632nd child lost since the full-scale war began," Zelenskyy wrote on X after the attack.
