Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., wants universities to take greater responsibility for preparing American students for successful careers, telling Campus Reform in an interview Thursday that colleges should bear some of the financial consequences when graduates cannot repay their student loans.”The hardest thing is to get these schools to really, really, really care that all these kids get jobs. That’s the thing that I care about,” Sen. Scott said.His Changing Our Learning, Loans, Endowments, and Graduation Expectations (COLLEGE) Act would require universities to assume financial responsibility for a portion of their students’ defaulted federal loans, expand reporting of employment outcomes, and require wealthy institutions to contribute more toward educational costs.”Hopefully, the focus will be, okay, let’s have degrees where we know these kids are going to get jobs. Let’s prepare them for a job, because that’s what they should be doing, right? That’s the whole idea. Let’s make the schools accountable for these kids getting jobs and paying off their loans,” Sen. Scott told Campus Reform.
Nvidia said it had initiated an independent investigation into CEO Jensen Huang, who admitted on Sunday to having an extramarital affair with a Chinese executive suspected of spying for Beijing. He’ll remain CEO pending the investigation’s outcome.“I was unfaithful to my wife,” Huang wrote in a company-wide letter seen by Semafor. “My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.”“To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.”The revelations come after The New York Times reported that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio had drafted a memo to top Trump administration officials warning that the Nvidia CEO was in a close relationship with Chinese citizen Alice Huang, an executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, which builds data centers in Southeast Asia and provides compute to mainland giant Alibaba. US officials fear the company may have acted as a backdoor for funneling export-controlled Nvidia chips to Beijing, the Times reported.

An individual reportedly used his vehicle as a weapon before fighting Secret Service agents and National Guardsmen near the White House, marking the second potentially deadly attack there within five days.The video below allegedly shows Secret Service agents (USSS) and Guardsmen restraining the violent individual.Fox News correspondent Alexandria Hoff said she obtained a statement from USSS about the incident. Apparently, two different individuals who tried to breach barricades. “The driver was combative with law enforcement, but was quickly placed under arrest,” USSS stated. “MPD’s [Metropolitan Police Department] Explosive Ordnance Disposal team has been called to sweep the vehicle as a precaution. Around the same time, a second individual jumped a barricade near the northwest corner of Lafayette Park. That individual was also quickly placed under arrest.”Hoff said that she was inside the White House when the lockdown occurred because of the vehicle ramming.
Vehicle Ramming Marks Second Attack at White House in Dayshttps://pjmedia.com/catherinesalgado/2026/11/09/vehicle-ramming-makes-second-attack-at-white-house-in-a-few-days-n4959179
Do these count as assenation attempts?
Far more so that the 1/6 riot was an "insurrection".
California voters rejected a proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaire wealth, turning back a measure supporters said could raise tens of billions of dollars for healthcare. The tax would have applied to people who were California residents on Jan. 1, 2026, with payments spread over five years.The defeat came as some of the state’s wealthiest residents warned they could leave California over the proposal. The state has one of the nation’s largest billionaire populations and relies heavily on high earners to fund its budget, making the potential loss of additional wealthy residents a concern for state finances.Supporters, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and the Service Employees International Union–United Healthcare Workers West, said the tax could help offset Trump administration cuts to healthcare and food assistance. California Gov. Gavin Newsom opposed the tax, arguing that California should address wealth inequality without driving billionaires out of the state.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admits to affair with suspected Chinese spyhttps://www.semafor.com/article/11/08/2026/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-admits-to-affair-with-suspected-chinese-spyOne of the dodges China has used to get US technology is to have "legitimate" businesses buy more than their real business activities need and ship the extra to China.
I wasn't surprised that Jensen Huang was trying to hang onto his job once word broke that he'd been sleeping with a suspected Chinese spy. I wasn't sure his gambit was going to work. It seemed like a 50-50 proposition at best.But I think the news this afternoon probably brings those odds way down. According to a new report by the NY Times, Huang also had an affair with a woman at his company who reports directly to him.QuoteJensen Huang, the leader of Nvidia who is under investigation for an affair with a woman who U.S. intelligence determined is a Chinese spy, also had an extramarital relationship with an executive who reports to him, according to five people who worked at the company.The relationship, which has not been previously reported, was with Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of health care, said the people, who spoke under the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive information. ...Mr. Huang, 63, and Ms. Powell, 48, were captured on video being affectionate at a San Jose, Calif., hotel during a Nvidia conference in March, according to two of the people who worked at the company. The New York Times has not seen the video....In March, Ms. Powell appeared at GTC, Nvidia’s annual developer conference in San Jose, where she spoke about using A.I. to aid in breakthroughs in health care and biology. Her presentation used cartoon depictions of Mr. Huang.During the conference, Nvidia executives were at a nearby hotel for meetings. Mr. Huang and Ms. Powell were seen being affectionate at the hotel. One bystander captured the interaction on their phone, three people briefed on the incident said...Mr. Huang’s security witnessed the bystander with their phone and sequestered them, the people said. They made the person an offer to sign a nondisclosure agreement.
