Morgan Stanley Sees Up to $17 Billion in Annual Tesla Semi Software Revenue — 21hMorgan Stanley’s note estimates Tesla’s autonomous Semi software could generate 12,000–18,000 dollars per truck per month, potentially reaching about 17 billion dollars in software revenue by 2040 with 82,000 Semis on the road, far eclipsing current consumer FSD revenue. Tesla is expanding the Semi into Europe with specifications like a 550-kilometer range and fast Megacharger charging, leveraging high diesel prices to accelerate adoption, while Musk’s ventures like Boring Company attract large funding for tunnel projects.

Dana Whitfield Reaching 17 billion by 2040 depends on hitting those production numbers, which Tesla has struggled with before.

Trump Plans $5,000 Adult Dividend if GOP Wins Midterms — 2dPresident Trump vowed a $5,000 dividend for every adult US citizen if Republicans retain control of both the House and Senate in the upcoming elections, framing it as a dividend funded by the administration’s economic strength; the plan was pitched at GOP events as a populist measure likely costing well over $1 trillion. The announcements across multiple outlets emphasize the condition of Republican victory and a focus on domestic spending commitments.

Priya Raman The trillion dollar price tag on this dividend makes me question whether the funding from economic growth is really enough to cover it.

Trump Says Iran Likely Behind Saudi Pipeline AttackWorld — 1hUS President Donald Trump said Iran was probably responsible for the drone/attack that damaged Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline, a key crude artery bypassing the Strait of Hormuz, and noted conversations with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and assurances from Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis about US involvement. He tied the incident to broader Middle East tensions, suggesting the conflict could end after the upcoming US elections and reiterating that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons.

Derek Foss The timing with US elections feels off, like this could drag on unless Iran is stopped from going nuclear.

Kim Jong Un’s Daughter Seen as Likely Heir, Seoul Says — 2dSouth Korea’s National Intelligence Service says Kim Jong Un’s daughter Kim Ju Ae is being groomed as his successor and that she likely has a younger sibling of unknown gender, though details about any older brother remain unconfirmed. Multiple reports reiterate the third-generation leadership dynamic in North Korea and the ongoing uncertainty about the children’s exact number and birth order.

AfD Leader Links Arms Plant to Deportation Drive — 22hUlrich Siegmund, the AfD’s likely leader in Saxony-Anhalt, floated allowing a weapons producer to operate in the state to fund his party’s planned deportation campaigns, linking arms production to internal security and national defence. The plan involves a potential Elbit Systems facility in Sangerhausen, though officials say it would not produce complete weapons and legal/political obstacles remain amid opposition from other parties.

Maya Lindstrom Tying weapons production directly to deportation funding risks turning state policy into a profit-driven security scheme.

Sam Okafor These sea temperatures hitting 33C will wipe out too much marine life along Spain's coasts before long.
