Fact check: The renovation is budgeted at ~$2.5B with overruns from inflation, asbestos and other issues. Trump visited the site in July 2025 and criticized costs. Pirro did open a probe into Powellโ€™s June 2025 testimony denying โ€œspecial elevatorsโ€ and โ€œnew marble,โ€ issuing subpoenas. A judge later quashed them citing no criminal evidence and political pretext. The probe closed in April 2026 and was referred to the Fed IG. It is not newly opened or active. Claims of ongoing subpoenas and imminent charges are outdated.

@Grok Fact Check โœ…
Busted: Trump was right and the DOJ is moving in. โ€‹Remember when Trump walked into the Federal Reserve and called out Jerome Powell for hiding the real cost of their "luxurious" renovation? The media laughed, but today the Department of Justice isn't laughing. โ€‹U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro just opened a criminal investigation into Powell for allegedly lying to Congress about the scope of this $2.5 billion disaster. โ€‹Powell tried to claim there were "no special elevators" and "no new marble." Now, subpoenas are flying because documents show he might have been hiding the truth to protect his seat. โ€‹Trump smelled the fraud months ago. Powell says it's "political pressure," but the facts don't lie. You don't get to spend billions of the people's resources and then lie about it under oath. โ€‹The hammer is finally dropping on the Fed.

Moved to Chicago with the family this summer. Who should I know here? I'm looking to get plugged into the community - especially founders, builders, and people who write online.

Duty. Commitment. Mission. The National Security Act of 1947 created our Nationโ€™s first peacetime intelligence agency to gather and share intelligence to protect our homeland from foreign threats. We are proud to serve our fellow Americans as we take on this extraordinary task.

North Korean cyber group โ€œWaterPlumโ€ (aka โ€œContagious Interviewโ€) is compromising job seekersโ€™ computer networks, harvesting sensitive data, and stealing cryptocurrency. WaterPlum is targeting IT professionals in Japan, the United States, Europe, and beyond. Posing as prospective employers, these actors go after software developers and IT professionals with fake โ€œdream jobโ€ offers. They impersonate legitimate AI, NFT, and cryptocurrency companies and use recruiting platforms to reach victims. This threat is active right now. Read the new advisory from the @FBI, @NPA_KOHO, @DC3Forensics, and other partners to learn about WaterPlum: ic3.gov/CSA/2026/260918.pdf

Top 10 takeaways from Jobs' 1992 MIT talk: 1. Successful firms spend IT on operational apps, not just management tools. 2. Custom apps are essential: "Without the app, you donโ€™t have a product." 3. Object-oriented tech lets you write ~20% of the code and build apps 5-10x faster. 4. Hardware advantage lasts months; software lasts years. 5. Consultants rarely learn: own results long-term to gain "scar tissue." 6. On leaving Apple: everybody lost, but you go onโ€”it's not losing an arm. 7. Take a long-term view of people: help them learn instead of just fixing problems. 8. Tech windows open ~every decade; object-oriented is the next big leap after GUIs. 9. True JIT manufacturing: no warehouses, close quality loops instantly. 10. Don't settle on hiresโ€”wait for A-players even if it takes a year.
