According to Joe Rogan, Elon Musk knew the election results before anyone else

Joe Rogan revealed on his podcast that Elon Musk would have developed a special app that would have allowed him to find out election results hours before anyone else.

Elon Musk, present at the election night party at Mar-a-Lago with several guests, including UFC CEO Dana White, was said by sources to have had real-time access to the voting results thanks to a private, customized app, according to Joe Rogan.

The billionaire, also a loyal financial backer of Trump’s campaign, would thus have been able to obtain this information before its public release.

He would therefore have known four hours in advance that Donald Trump had won, even before many votes had been counted, because his app would have given him the information before anyone else announced it.

Many wonder how this app could have worked. It could have had access to real-time data from official sources, which could have led to a discrepancy with the public results, as the latter are usually centralized to prevent leaks.

Another possibility is that the app was using algorithms and AI to estimate results from premature data, but this would only have been an estimate, not an official result, even if, in the end, Trump actually won.

That said, there is no concrete evidence that such an app was actually developed or used by Elon Musk.

Police have warned the public not to approach the animals under any circumstances.

25 of the 42 monkeys that escaped from the Alpha Genesis Primate Research Center in South Carolina on Wednesday were finally captured in good health after undergoing a health check by a team of veterinarians.

The monkeys, rhesus macaques, escaped when an Alpha Genesis employee failed to properly close a door after feeding them, according to authorities.

The Alpha Genesis Primate Research Center, located in Yemassee, South Carolina, is a facility dedicated to the study of primates. The center focuses primarily on biomedical research and the study of primate behavior, while providing subjects for scientific research related to medicine and biology.

Melania Trump turns down Jill Biden’s invitation to the White House

Although Joe Biden promised a peaceful transfer of power and invited President-elect Donald Trump to the White House on Wednesday, an invitation he accepted, Melania Trump, for her part, chose not to respond to First Lady Jill Biden’s invitation to visit the White House.

Melania Trump chose not to follow this tradition, citing a scheduling conflict to justify her refusal.

By contrast, during her husband’s first term in office, she accepted former First Lady Michelle Obama’s invitation to share a moment of tea.

In 2020, after Donald Trump’s defeat in the election, no invitation was extended by the Trumps to the Bidens, breaking a long-standing tradition between the incumbent and the president-elect.

Nissan cuts 9,000 jobs and 20% of production capacity

The Japanese automaker has announced major cuts in its workforce and production, with the elimination of 9,000 jobs and a 20% reduction in production capacity.

Lower sales in the second quarter of 2024, particularly in the US and China, are one of the main reasons for the cuts, which will save the company a total of $2.6 billion in expenses.

The company is struggling to compete in China, where sales are down 13% year-on-year, as well as in the US, with a 2.3% decline over the same period.

What’s more, it lacks a credible range of hybrid cars to compete with affordable, technologically advanced electric and hybrid vehicles.

Nissan’s share price has indeed fallen sharply on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, losing JPY 369 (-36.00, or -8.90%) in the last five days since the announcement of the reduction.

A Very British Scandal: King Charles and Prince William have a lot of explaining to do

King Charles and Prince William are at the center of a scandal following the release of the investigative documentary The King, The Prince & Their Secret Millions, which reveals that they are alleged to have personally stocked the coffers of their respective royal estates with millions of dollars, obtained through their links with charities, public services and taxes paid by citizens.

According to the investigation, the two British royal figures would have reaped millions of dollars, feeding the coffers of the Duchy of Lancaster and the Duchy of Cornwall, financial entities belonging respectively to the King and the heir to the British throne.

The investigation, carried out over several months in collaboration with The Sunday Times and Channel 4’s Dispatches, revealed the millions of dollars accumulated each year by Charles and William – including $35 million for King Charles and $30 million for Prince William last year alone – as well as the various methods used to amass this fortune.

The financial entities of King Charles and Prince William generate millions every year from lands seized by medieval monarchs. They receive income from a variety of sectors, including government, business and the general public, via commercial rents and feudal royalties.

These include river tolls, the use of coastlines to unload cargo, the laying of cables under beaches, the operation of schools and charities, as well as tolls on bridges, churches, mines, parking lots, housing and many other sources.

These millions of dollars raised by the King and Prince are, of course, tax-free thanks to a special agreement with the Treasury. According to The Sunday Times, these sums come from fees charged to various public services, such as the army, navy, National Health Service, prisons and state schools, for the use of these lands, rivers and even coastlines.

The Menendez brothers could be out before Christmas

A case that has been the talk of the town for 30 years!

On August 20, 1989, brothers Joseph Lyle Menendez and Erik Galen Menendez murdered their parents, José and Mary Louise Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home. In 1996, they were sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

The Menendez brothers’ attorney, Mark Geragos, recently said he expects they could be released in time for Christmas, after a significant legal breakthrough that could lead to their release after 35 years in prison. Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon recommended a new sentencing hearing for Lyle, 56, and Erik, 53, citing new evidence in the case as well as their exemplary behavior in prison.

At their first trial, the Menendez brothers claimed to have killed their parents in self-defense, citing years of sexual abuse by their father, while their mother remained passive. The 1993 trial ended in a mistrial.

In their second trial, the judge dismissed the majority of the abuse testimony and limited the jurors’ options to murder, without including the possibility of manslaughter, as had been proposed in the first trial.

A hearing is scheduled for November 26, two days before Thanksgiving, when a Los Angeles Superior Court judge could review their life sentences in light of prosecutor George Gascon’s recommendation and new evidence. The judge could also order a new trial. However, even if the judicial process succeeds, a parole board will have to review their case, leaving them unlikely to be released by Thanksgiving.

The story of the Menendez brothers has regained popularity thanks to the Netflix series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, starring Javier Bardem, Chloë Sevigny, Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez.

Angelina Jolie returns… on Netflix!

She acts and sings!

Two years after her role in Eternals, Angelina Jolie returns to the small screen with the film Maria, to be released on Netflix on December 11. She plays Maria Callas, the 20th-century opera icon, in an intimate account of the Greek-American soprano’s last days before her death in 1977.

The film promises an immersion into the life of this legend, touching on her final reflections, her artistic triumphs, and the torments that marked her private life.

The life of Maria Callas, marked by as much glamour as tumult, continues to fascinate, and the film Maria, starring Angelina Jolie, puts the spotlight on this operatic icon. Considered the most acclaimed opera singer of her time, Callas lived a tormented existence, not least due to a strained relationship with her mother and a clandestine affair with a world-famous tycoon. Towards the end of her life, Callas withdrew from the stage, leading a reclusive life in Paris, where she died of a heart attack on September 16, 1977, at the age of 53.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Angelina Jolie shared her deep personal connection with Callas.

The film Maria is directed by Pablo Larraín, known for his sensitive biographical works Jackie and Spencer.

With Maria, Larraín completes his “Great Woman Trilogy”.
