on January 30, 2025:

1. A passenger plane carrying 64 people collided mid-air with a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter near Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., resulting in both aircraft crashing into the partially frozen Potomac River on Wednesday night. Authorities have confirmed there were no survivors.

2. Emergency responders reported finding the commercial plane’s fuselage split into three in waist-deep water. Out of the 64 on the plane and 3 on the helicopter, 28 bodies have been recovered so far, including several figure skaters returning from a training camp.

3. U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy described the crash as "absolutely preventable," though the military noted routine helicopter activity in the area. Federal officials, including President Donald Trump, expressed condolences while emphasizing ongoing investigations.

4. The congested airspace near Reagan National makes it a tightly monitored zone, but mid-air collisions involving U.S. commercial airlines are rare. This marks the deadliest aviation disaster on U.S. soil since 2001. Recovery efforts remain challenging due to difficult weather and water conditions.

"DeepSeek Faces Trademark Conflict in the U.S."
on January 29, 2025:

1. Chinese AI company DeepSeek is facing a trademark dispute in the U.S. after filing an application with the USPTO to trademark its products and tools. The problem? A U.S.-based firm, Delson Group Inc., filed for the “DeepSeek” trademark just 36 hours earlier and claims to have been using the brand since 2020.

2. Delson’s founder, Willie Lu, a consulting professor and industry veteran, has an active AI-focused website and conducts training events under the “DeepSeek” name, strengthening his case. Lu has a history of trademark disputes and appears to have registered trademarks for multiple well-known brands, raising questions of potential trademark squatting.

3. A trademark law expert noted Delson has several advantages: earlier filing, claims of prior use, and demonstrated AI-related activities. If proven, Delson could block DeepSeek from using the name in the U.S., citing trademark infringement or “reverse confusion” due to DeepSeek’s prominence.

4. This is not the first instance of AI companies encountering trademark issues—OpenAI faced hurdles when trying to trademark “GPT,” highlighting ongoing clashes in this competitive field.

"U.S. Tech Stocks Tumble Amid DeepSeek AI Disruption"
on January 29, 2025:

1. The release of DeepSeek's cost-efficient AI model has sent shockwaves through U.S. markets, causing Nvidia’s stock to drop 4% on Wednesday, with a broader decline across major tech firms like Apple and Tesla. The Chinese AI startup’s rise threatens the dominance of U.S.-based AI companies, as the model rivals that of OpenAI and Meta while operating at a fraction of the cost.

2. President Trump is reportedly considering new export controls on AI chip sales to China, further fueling uncertainty for Nvidia, which reported that 15% of its revenue stems from China. Analysts largely view the selloff as overblown, with several calling it a buying opportunity as AI remains a critical investment focus.

3. DeepSeek’s model has sparked concerns over its alleged use of OpenAI outputs for training, violating terms of service. Meanwhile, the AI model's efficiency has turned investor narratives on generative AI, with Chinese state media framing it as a victory over U.S. technology sanctions.

4. As Wall Street braces for further turbulence, attention now shifts to earnings reports from Meta, Microsoft, and Tesla, due later this week, amid growing debates about the future competitive landscape of global AI.

"Meta to pay $25m to settle Trump lawsuit over ban"
on November 1, 2024:

1. Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has agreed to a $25 million settlement in response to a lawsuit filed by former US President Donald Trump over his account bans following the January 6 Capitol riots. Filed in 2021, Trump alleged the bans were unjust, leading to this legal resolution.

2. Approximately $22 million of the settlement will go towards funding Trump's presidential library, while the remaining funds will cover legal costs and other plaintiffs involved. Meta has not admitted to any wrongdoing as part of the settlement.

3. Trump's accounts, which were initially banned for at least two years, had their final restrictions lifted in the lead-up to the 2024 US presidential elections. This settlement marks a significant moment in the ongoing strained relationship between Trump and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who were at odds for years.

4. Meanwhile, Meta continues to invest heavily in artificial intelligence, defending its $65 billion commitment to the field amid rising global competition, particularly from China's DeepSeek AI. Mark Zuckerberg emphasized Meta’s open-source approach as critical for America’s role in the AI race.

"DeepSeek and the Need for AI as the U.S. 'Global Open Source Standard'"
on February/March 2025:

1. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, highlighted the innovative potential of DeepSeek and why it reinforces the U.S.’s need to adopt AI as a global open-source standard. According to Zuckerberg, open-source AI drives collaboration, fosters rapid improvements, and ensures fairness in global AI development. He emphasized that this leadership opportunity should not be underestimated.

2. Addressing critics of AI spending, Zuckerberg stated that there is no reason to rethink current investments. He believes that maintaining a strong commitment to AI helps secure both technological and economic global dominance for the U.S. Open-source AI not only accelerates innovations but also ensures AI systems are transparent and widely accessible—key for long-term success.

3. Zuckerberg’s comments reflect Meta’s broader push for transparency in AI while urging policymakers and industries to prioritize collaboration. DeepSeek's advancements serve as a case study for how AI can tackle complex global challenges, boosting productivity and problem-solving capacity across multiple sectors.

"Middle East Tensions and U.S. Domestic Politics"
on October 2025:

1. A U.S. judge has blocked former President Donald Trump’s proposal to freeze federal grants and loans, a significant ruling that underscores ongoing judicial checks on political maneuvers. Meanwhile, Trump has reportedly pressured Egypt and Jordan to accept a controversial Gaza ‘clean-out’ plan, signaling heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East as regional wars escalate.

2. Domestically, Trump suggested buying out federal workers reluctant to return to physical offices, a proposal aimed at reshaping the federal workforce post-pandemic while addressing federal labor challenges.

3. On the global stage, a new poll underscores that the majority of Greenlanders oppose U.S. integration, reflecting broader international opinion shifts. Meanwhile, CNN anchor Jim Acosta has stepped down from the network after the prime-time show’s repositioning to a midnight slot, highlighting changes in U.S. media dynamics.

4. Such developments underline the interconnected impacts of U.S. political decisions both at home and abroad, further complicating existing tensions surrounding global diplomacy, domestic workflows, and evolving media landscapes.

"Trump Offers Federal Workforce Buyouts Amid Blocked Funding Freeze"
on January 28, 2025:

1. U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration has introduced a plan offering federal workers buyouts equivalent to about seven months of salary if they choose to leave their positions by February 6. This move is part of ongoing efforts to overhaul the government and reduce its workforce, which currently employs over three million people.

2. The Office of Personnel Management has outlined four directives for these changes, including a return to full-time, in-office work for most employees. This significant reduction in workforce may impact the delivery and efficiency of federal services across the nation, as federal employees average a tenure of nearly 12 years.

3. Separately, a federal judge has temporarily blocked Trump’s recent directive to freeze federal grants and loans, a decision that was intended to scrutinize funding programs for ideological alignment. The freeze, meant to align with Trump’s executive orders, created uncertainty for local governments, schools, and nonprofits that depend on federal funds.

4. The legal challenge, prompted by nonprofit groups, has delayed the funding freeze to give time for judicial review, setting the stage for a broader constitutional debate on federal authority over taxpayer resources.
