What Fresh Hell Is This?

Tech Tuesday

This morning, Puddle launched a new AI chatbot website called America.gov. We are fortunate it’s not called Puddle Super Intelligence dot gov.

During the announcement of the new AI chatbot website, Puddle says he will sign a big powerful executive order to rename Artificial Intelligence, to Super Intelligence the now official name in “United States”.

Narrator: If there is one lesson that needs learned from Puddle1.0 and Puddle2.0 it’s this: No, not everyone can be president…

Axios has reported a list of attendees for today’s luncheon.

Tech Bros:

  • Craft Ventures’ David Sacks, former White House AI czar, will attend.
  • Palo Alto Networks CEO Nikesh Arora, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Altimeter CEO Brad Gerstner, ServiceNow CEO Bill McDermott, Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra and Elon Musk will attend.
  • So will Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Social Capital founder Chamath Palihapitiya, Exiger CEO Brandon Rahbar Daniels, Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar, AMD CEO Lisa Su, Broadcom CEO Hock Tan.
  • The CEOs of Meta, Nvidia, Palantir, Google and Anthropic will attend, as previously reported. OpenAI President Greg Brockman will attend while CEO Sam Altman attends the company’s annual conference in San Francisco.

Puddle’s Lackeys:

  • White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Richard Walters and White House counsel Will Scharf will attend.
  • Vice President JD Vance, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, White House science adviser Michael Kratsios.
  • Also: National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross and National Intelligence Director Jay Clayton.

I found this list from Julia Manchester over at The Hill.

Speaking of Axios…

President Trump is willing to give Iran sanctions relief and release Iranian frozen funds in return for concrete Iranian steps regarding the nuclear program, U.S. officials say.

Axios. 09/28/2026.
  • But Trump took to Truth Social Monday evening to say such reports were “untrue.”

Why it matters: The apparent U.S. message to Iran comes as Qatari and Pakistani mediators try again this week to strike a deal between the two warring countries.

Axios. 09/28/2026.

Narrator: Eventually, the leopard will eat your face too.

I don’t know what this is or why he would post it…

Narrator: I’m sure the secret service is thrilled Puddle shared the seating chart.

Well gang, that’s where we end today’s post.

I’m running late today because I spent part of my morning muting Republicans while listening to Jack Smith speak like an adult. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made.
