Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya has raised concerns about the potential threat to the United States&#8217; AI dominance due to a lack of electricity to power data centers.
What Happened: On Monday, Palihapitiya took to X and shared a graph while expressing his concerns about the U.S. potentially losing its AI edge to China due to a lack of electricity to power data centers.
He pointed out that as AI becomes more reliant on computational power, it also becomes increasingly dependent on electricity to power the data centers housing the computations.
&#8220;The U.S. is still ahead in model sophistication and quality, but we are way behind on electricity generation, which could catch up with us,&#8221; he said.
Palihapitiya stressed the importance of prioritizing and incentivizing every aspect of the energy ecosystem—including generation, storage, transmission, and distribution—to tackle the growing challenge.

</figure>
Why It Matters: The warning from Palihapitiya comes at a time when the energy consumption of AI data centers has been a growing concern. In April 2024, ARM Holdings plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>) CEO Rene Haas said that AI data centers could consume <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/04/38163078/ai-could-consume-25-of-us-power-by-2030-the-more-information-they-gather-the-more-power-it-takes-war">a quarter of the U.S. power</a> by 2030, without improved energy efficiency. 
Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) in March 2024 projected that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/06/45728009/tomorrows-energy-crisis-mits-alarming-analysis-of-ai-power-consumption">power demand driven by generative AI</a> will grow at an average annual rate of 70% through 2027, primarily due to the expansion of AI-reliant data centers.
Meanwhile, in April this year, Former Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) CEO Eric Schmidt warned that China's rapid increase in AI investment could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44892275/eric-schmidt-warns-china-is-going-to-win-ai-race-unless-washington-fights-with-funding-and-instills-american-values-at-the-core">allow it to surpass the U.S.</a> unless Washington significantly steps up its efforts.
He also urged President Donald Trump to go beyond simply reversing previous administration policies and take stronger action.

Longevity Health Surges 60% After Hours On Merger With THPlasma

President Donald Trump&#8217;s latest threat of a 100% tariff on Russia if no peace deal is reached in Ukraine within 50 days is drawing sharp criticism, and even mockery from leading economist Justin Wolfers.
What Happened: On Monday, in a post on X, Wolfers criticized Trump&#8217;s proposed move to bring an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine, by threatening &#8220;secondary tariffs&#8221; of 100% against Russia, if a resolution isn&#8217;t reached within the next 50 days.
Wolfers mocked the move, highlighting the fact that Russia was already under sanctions by the U.S., drastically limiting trade between the two nations, so any tariff figure would be irrelevant for Moscow at this point.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46388874/eu-prepares-24-5b-in-tariffs-as-trump-threatens-30-import-tax-on-mexico-europe">EU Prepares $24.5B In Tariffs As Trump Threatens 30% Import Tax On Mexico, Europe</a>
&#8220;A 100% tariff on almost nothing will do almost nothing,&#8221; Wolfers says, sharing a chart featuring the drop in trade between the United States and Russia in recent years. 
Wolfers attributes this to Trump&#8217;s need to look tough on Russia without actually having to do anything. &#8220;How to sound tough but do nothing: Impose tariffs on a country where we already impose sanctions,&#8221; he says.
Speaking to the media on Monday, Trump said, &#8220;we&#8217;ve spent $350 billion approximately on this war with Russia and Ukraine,&#8221; before emphasizing that it wasn&#8217;t his war, but former President Joe Biden&#8217;s.
Trump added that he wants to see it end, and that he was &#8220;disappointed in President Putin&#8221; because he thought they had a deal two months ago, &#8220;but it doesn&#8217;t seem to get there.&#8221;

</figure>
Why It Matters: According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, trade with Russia dropped following the sanctions imposed in 2022, in response to the latter&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine.
Imports from Russia stood at $29.6 billion in 2021, before dropping to $14.4 billion in 2022, and all the way down to $3 billion in 2024. Currently, U.S. imports from the nation largely consist of critical goods such as low-enriched uranium, platinum group metals, nitrogenous and potassic fertilizers.
Last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46014413/putin-lauds-trumps-significant-support-on-ukraine-talks-as-russia-warns-us-to-stay-out-of-iran">appreciated Trump</a> for his efforts to help resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said, &#8220;President&nbsp;Putin sincerely appreciates Trump&#8217;s readiness&nbsp;to help find a solution&nbsp;to this ongoing crisis, as&nbsp;well as the efforts that&nbsp;he and his team are&nbsp;making. Such support is very&nbsp;significant.&#8221;
This week, Trump announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46384536/trump-says-us-will-supply-ukraine-with-patriot-missiles-putin-really-surprised-a-lot-of-people-he-talks-nice-and-bombs-everybody-in-the-evening">plans to supply Ukraine</a> with Patriot missiles, following Putin&#8217;s resistance to ceasefire negotiations between Ukraine and Russia.

Trump's '100% Tariff' Threat On 'Almost Nothing' Trade With Russia A Prescription For 'How To Sound Tough But Do Nothing,' Says Economist

Economist and market commentator Peter Schiff critiqued Monday what he perceived as Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) shift from decentralized adoption to centralized buying by treasury companies.
What Happened:&nbsp;In an X post, Schiff expressed his views on the current state of Bitcoin demand. 
&#8220;Bitcoin demand has shifted to Bitcoin treasury companies and speculators looking to front-run that buying,&#8221; Schiff argued. &#8220;This is a Ponzi built on a pyramid.&#8221;
Schiff also aimed at Bitcoin supporters who frequently espouse the asset&#8217;s decentralized origins, saying, &#8220;It's not about broadening Bitcoin adoption — it's about wild centralized speculation that undermines Bitcoin's foundational principles.&#8221;

The Michael Saylor-founded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46401183/strategy-adds-472-million-in-bitcoin-ups-total-holdings-to-over-600000-btc">firm added another 4,225 BTC to its already dominant treasury</a>, bringing the total hoard above 600 BTC, currently worth $70.45 billion.

Additionally, large investors or whales, held just about 1.25% of Bitcoin&#8217;s circulating supply, <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/">according</a> to IntoTheBlock.

The Trade Desk Shares Spike 15% After Hours — Here's Why The Stock Is Trending Tonight

Jim Cramer predicted Monday that JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO Jamie Dimon will shun his skepticism and "go all in on cryptocurrency."
What happened: During a CNBC segment, Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/07/14/watch-cnbcas-full-discussion-with-the-asquawk-on-the-streeta-crew.html">weighed </a>in on the market's ongoing bull run, which has propelled Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), the world's leading cryptocurrency, past $123,000.&nbsp;
Cramer commented on the emerging trend in which firms are borrowing money to establish corporate treasuries for currencies such as Bitcoin and even Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>).
The Mad Money show host then shifted his attention to Dimon, one of the fiercest Bitcoin skeptics on Wall Street.
"You know the sites that talk about what events are going to occur? I'd like to pay the bookie when he does a lot of crypto," Cramer said. "He'll go all in on crypto."
See Also:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44621245/gold-backed-cryptos-match-yellow-metals-highs-following-trumps-liberation-day-shock"> </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46149584/why-crypto-investors-are-receiving-internal-revenue-service-warning-letters">Why Crypto Investors Are Receiving Internal Revenue Service Warning Letters</a>
Why It Matters: Cramer's prophecy is interesting given Dimon&#8217;s traditionally hostile position on cryptocurrencies, which he <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5032117/jamie-dimon-calls-crypto-tokens-decentralized-ponzi-schemes">described previously</a> as &#8220;decentralized Ponzi schemes&#8221; and having no intrinsic value.
But while he remains skeptical, JPMorgan has become more interested in the leading cryptocurrency. In May, the financial giant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45501880/jamie-dimon-opens-jpmorgan-to-bitcoin-access-despite-longstanding-criticism">allowed clients</a> to have exposure to Bitcoin, though it will not offer custody services.
Interestingly, Cramer himself <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEHQguBMD0E">was a known cryptocurrency doubter</a>. Back in 2023, he referred to it as a "scam" and warned investors to stay away from the asset class.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $117,379.62, down 2.05% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
JPM stock ranked high on the Momentum and Growth metrics as of this writing.

Jamie Dimon Will 'Go All In On Crypto,' Says Jim Cramer After Bitcoin's Explosive Rally: 'I'd Like To Pay The Bookie…'

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) announced it will resume sales of its H20 GPU to China and unveiled a new RTX PRO graphics processor designed specifically for Chinese customers, according to a company statement released Monday.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/nvda">NVDA stock here</a>.
What Happened: CEO Jensen Huang said during visits to Washington and Beijing that Nvidia is filing applications to sell the H20 GPU again, with the U.S. government providing assurances that licenses will be granted. The company expects to begin deliveries soon, according to Nvidia.
The new RTX PRO GPU is &#8220;fully compliant&#8221; with U.S. export controls and &#8220;ideal for digital twin AI for smart factories and logistics,&#8221; Huang announced. The chip represents Nvidia&#8217;s latest effort to maintain market share in China while navigating heightened trade restrictions.
The announcements come as Huang conducted diplomatic visits to both capitals this month. In Washington, he met with President Donald Trump and policymakers, reaffirming Nvidia&#8217;s support for domestic AI infrastructure and manufacturing initiatives. In Beijing, he discussed AI productivity benefits with government and industry officials.

Why It Matters: The H20 resumption marks a significant development for NVIDIA&#8217;s Chinese operations. U.S. export controls have restricted semiconductor firms from selling advanced AI chips to Chinese customers, forcing NVIDIA to develop modified versions for the Chinese market.
Huang previously told CNN that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46397545/nvidias-jensen-huang-china-doesnt-need-us-chips">Chinese military forces don&#8217;t use Nvidia chips</a> due to export restrictions. &#8220;They don&#8217;t need Nvidia&#8217;s chips, certainly, or American tech stacks in order to build their military,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They simply can&#8217;t rely on it.&#8221;
The CEO emphasized that &#8220;general-purpose, open-source research and foundation models are the backbone of AI innovation&#8221; during his Washington meetings. He argued that making U.S. technology accessible globally encourages nations to choose American technology stacks.
NVIDIA&#8217;s China strategy faces scrutiny after reports that a Chinese AI firm, DeepSeek, allegedly used shell companies to obtain H100 chips while supporting China&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46397545/nvidias-jensen-huang-china-doesnt-need-us-chips">military and intelligence agencies</a>. 
Earlier this year, Nvidia was&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45644145/nvidia-stock-is-bullish-ahead-of-q1-earnings-but-will-h20-chip-woes-dampen-the-party" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forced to halt shipments</a>&nbsp;of its China-specific&nbsp;H20&nbsp;AI chips after the U.S. government determined a special license was required, costing the company $2.5 billion in potential revenue in the first quarter.
Price Action: Nvidia shares traded at $163.87 in after-hours Monday, down 0.64% from the regular session close of $164.07. The stock gained 3.20% in overnight trading on Robinhood, reaching $169.41.

Nvidia Resumes H20 Shipments To China As Jensen Huang Meets Trump, Beijing Officials — 'Fully Compliant' RTX PRO Aims To Bridge AI Cold War

Renowned TV host Jim Cramer is stirring chatter on X with another buzzworthy &#8220;meme stock&#8221; acronym, aimed at a new group of retail-favorite stocks that are defying gravity.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PLTR stock here.</a>
What Happened: On Monday, in a post on X, Cramer wrote, &#8220;A new acronym for the meme stocks that just won't quit!!! PARC!,&#8221; referring to Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), AppLovin Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APP#NASDAQ">APP</a>), Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>), and Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>).
All four companies are notable for their social media-fueled momentum, high levels of retail participation, and volatility, which has earned them the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/blog/what-are-meme-stocks">&#8220;meme stock&#8221; moniker</a>.
Palantir provides AI and data analytics applications for governments and commercial applications, and has seen strong momentum in recent years. AppLovin, on the other hand, is a mobile advertising platform and a game publisher that has seen a sharp rally since mid-last year.

Earlier in the day, Cramer asked his followers on X to choose between PARC and CARP for the new acronym, before leaning towards PARC on CNBC&#8217;s Mad Money.
Cramer&#8217;s new acronym, however, drew mixed reactions online. When he asked for suggestions from his followers, several users suggested &#8220;CRAP&#8221; over &#8220;PARC&#8221; or &#8220;CARP,&#8221; citing the high valuations of these companies.

Why It Matters: This isn't the first time Cramer has packaged market favorites into catchy acronyms. In the past, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/10/23745812/heres-the-new-acronym-from-jim-cramer-replacing-faang">popularized the term</a> &#8220;FANG&#8221; for Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google, which eventually evolved into &#8220;FAANG&#8221; to include Apple. 
Over the years, this acronym has given rise to several ETFs that aim to provide investors with exposure to the group, and the term has since become synonymous with &#8220;big tech.&#8221;
Early this month, Cramer split the FAANG to just &#8220;M-N-Ms,&#8221; referring to Microsoft, Nvidia and Meta Platforms, which have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46240154/not-fang-not-magnificent-seven-just-m-n-ms-jim-cramer-floats-new-tech-acronym-for-these-stocks-that-outpaced-peers">significantly outperformed</a> their &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; counterparts during the year.

Jim Cramer Made 'FAANG' Popular, Now He Says There's A New Acronym To Describe These Retail Favorite Stocks — 'PARC'

Brazil Potash Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRO#NYSE">GRO</a>) surged 86.21% in after-hours trading on Monday.
Check out how <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GRO">Brazil Potash stock is trading here</a>
What Happened: The company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/GRO:NYSEAMERICAN?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwji6aCH3L2OAxW_TGwGHYuBFgIQ3ecFegQIZxAb">stock price</a> jumped to $2.70 after the market closed, up from the day&#8217;s closing price of $1.45. This surge followed the announcement of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Toronto-based fertilizer company and Fictor Energia for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46403668/brazil-potash-signs-mou-with-fictor-wtt-s-a-outlining-terms-for-fictor-energia-to-fund-200m-in-power">$200 million power line project</a>.
The MoU outlines the terms for Fictor Energia to fund approximately $200 million in power transmission construction costs for the Autazes Project.&nbsp;

Why It Matters: The MoU with Fictor Energia is an agreement that not only secures funding for a crucial infrastructure project but also demonstrates the company&#8217;s ability to attract substantial investment for its projects.
Earlier in May, the company had agreed to establish an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45216753/brazil-potash-agrees-on-establishing-equity-line-of-credit-with-alumni-capital-to-progress-flagship">equity line of credit</a> with Alumni Capital to progress its flagship Autazes Potash Project. This latest development further solidifies the company&#8217;s financial position and its ability to execute its strategic initiatives.
It is also worth noting that in March, the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44454266/brazil-potash-signs-key-vegetation-management-contract-for-site-preparation-at-its-autazes-potash-pr">signed a key vegetation management contract</a> for site preparation at its Autazes Potash Project in Amazonas State, showing a consistent commitment to project development.

Brazil Potash Soars 86% After Hours After Signing $200 Million Deal With Fictor Energia

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has raised alarms after Elon Musk's xAI secured a major Pentagon contract just days after its chatbot, Grok, made antisemitic and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46347324/musk-says-grok-coming-to-teslas-by-next-week-evs-getting-the-smartest-ai-in-the-world">pro-Hitler remarks online</a>.
What Happened: On Monday, the U.S. Department of Defense announced that Musk's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46335602/elon-musk-s-xai-launches-grok-4-with-phd-level-ai-debuts-in-300-month-supergrok-tier">artificial intelligence startup</a> xAI—alongside OpenAI, Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google and Anthropic—was awarded contracts worth up to $200 million each to help scale AI capabilities across national security applications, reported Reuters.
The contracts aim to support agentic AI development, a move backed by the Pentagon's Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office.
Shortly after the announcement, Warren took to X, formerly Twitter, slamming the decision. "This is the same Grok that was ‘manipulated' into praising Hitler last week," she wrote. "What could possibly go wrong when integrating this AI into our national security?"

xAI has publicly apologized for Grok's behavior. The company admitted that a code update made the chatbot vulnerable to offensive prompts on the platform.

Grok had issued several problematic statements, including calling itself "MechaHitler" and suggesting Adolf Hitler would "have crushed it."

Following xAI's announcement of Grok 4, Musk responded to Tesla influencer Sawyer Merritt, confirming that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46347324/musk-says-grok-coming-to-teslas-by-next-week-evs-getting-the-smartest-ai-in-the-world">Grok would be coming to Tesla vehicles</a> very soon, possibly within this week.

What Happened: Bitcoin fell to an intraday low of $118,959.20, a marked reversal from its early morning highs. Trading volume soared 256% to a whopping $180 billion, indicating heavy profit-taking.
According to CryptoQuant, <a href="https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/miner-flows/miner-reserve?miner=all_miner&amp;window=DAY&amp;sma=0&amp;ema=0&amp;priceScale=log&amp;metricScale=linear&amp;chartStyle=line">miner reserves</a> have fallen steeply over the past few days.
Ethereum also reversed course, falling below $3,000, even as trading activity remained high.
The two blue-chip currencies are off to a flying start in the third quarter, with Bitcoin up 11.68% and Ethereum up more than 20% so far.
Over $800 million was liquidated from the market in the last 24 hours, with short position traders bearing the brunt of the rally. That said, about $595 million in longs risked liquidation if Bitcoin reversed to $117,000.
Bitcoin's open interest rose 2.40% to $87.43 billion, marking a new record high. "Greed" sentiment persisted in the market, according to the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

Edward, another cryptocurrency market researcher, drew a parallel to Bitcoin&#8217;s 2024 breakout, where a similar weekly surge preceded a 50% rally.
"This time, $135,000–$140,000 isn't hopium. It's one clean breakout away," the analyst said.
That said, Edward flagged $115,500–116,500 as a potential retest zone.

Palantir, The Trade Desk, Tilray, Sonnet Biotherapeutics, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has proposed a bill aimed at restructuring American elections to exclude non-citizens, emphasizing national security and fair representation.
What Happened: On Monday, Greene posted on X about her proposed legislation, the &#8220;Making American Election Great Again Act,&#8217; which mandates a new census counting only U.S. citizens, instructs states to redraw congressional districts based on this count, and requires proof of citizenship for voting in federal elections. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">American elections belong to the American people, not illegal aliens. My bill: &#x2705; Orders a new census that counts U.S. citizens only &#x2705; Directs states to redraw congressional districts based on that count &#x2705; Requires proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections This is… <a href="https://t.co/F2SxkQfnLZ">pic.twitter.com/F2SxkQfnLZ</a>
&mdash; Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene&#x1f1fa;&#x1f1f8; (@RepMTG) <a href="https://twitter.com/RepMTG/status/1944895892877647906?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 14, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
In a video she shared in her post, Greene asserted that House and district lines are created &#8220;based off the population&#8221; counted in the census. She said the same applies to the Electoral College votes.
&#8220;Now that we&#8217;ve had decades and especially the past four years of our country basically being invaded with tens of millions of people from all over the world. Americans don&#8217;t feel like they&#8217;re represented in Washington.&#8221;
The Georgia representative said that district lines would be drawn based on the count of U.S. citizens, according to the proposed legislation.
Greene said due to her bill states like California will lose &#8220;electoral college votes&#8221; and House seats. She said the same would happen to states like New York and other &#8220;sanctuary states.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Earlier in the month, it was <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rep-mtg-introduce-bill-requiring-proof-citizenship-vote-new-census-only-counts-citizens">reported</a> by Fox News that Taylor&#8217;s legislation is still being drafted.
Greene&#8217;s stance on immigration and its impact on the American economy has been a recurring theme in her political career. In a speech at the Republican National Convention in 2024, she criticized the Washington establishment for selling out the American people. &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39806263/marjorie-taylor-greene-uses-rnc-to-weigh-in-on-immigration-debate-the-democrats-economy-is-of-by">They promised unity and delivered division. They promised peace and brought war</a>,&#8221; she said.
Why It Matters: The proposed bill aligns with a broader debate about voting rights and election security in the U.S. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has previously expressed concern about the lack of photo ID requirements for voting in most U.S. states, stating that it makes fraud impossible to detect. &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38137245/this-is-crazy-elon-musk-reacts-to-a-post-that-says-majority-of-us-states-dont-require-photo-id-to-vo">This is crazy</a>,&#8221; Musk posted in response to a post arguing against the absence of voter ID laws.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Backs Move To Create New Census That Only Counts US Citizens, Calls For 'Proof Of Citizenship' In Elections — 'Americans Don't Feel Like They're Represented'

It took years of persistence, a full face of alien prosthetics, and a single line of dialogue, but Amazon.com, Inc. founder Jeff Bezos finally made it into the "Star Trek" universe — exactly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/04/20675447/5-things-you-might-not-know-about-jeff-bezos">the way he wanted</a>.
What Happened: In a 2020 fireside chat in Mumbai with actor Shah Rukh Khan and filmmaker Zoya Akhtar, the Amazon founder revealed how his eight-second cameo in the 2016 film Star Trek Beyond came to life.
Bezos, a lifelong Star Trek fan, said he had one mission: land a speaking role that couldn't be cut. "I got that role by literally begging," Bezos admitted.
The billionaire recalled that he approached Paramount Global repeatedly over the years, asking to be part of a Star Trek film. Each time, the studio turned him down. He didn't give up — and he had conditions.

He was totally fine being unrecognizable in makeup, but the part had to include a speaking line and be part of a pivotal scene so that they couldn't cut him from the final version of the movie.
Eventually, director Justin Lin gave him the green light.
At the 13-minute mark of Star Trek Beyond, Bezos appears in full alien makeup, created by Oscar-winning makeup artist Joel Harlow.
He plays a Starfleet officer on the Yorktown starbase who places a universal translator on a rescued alien and tells her, "Speak normally." Then he exits the frame.
"We did the scene 20 times," Bezos recalled, saying he was nervous he'd flub his one line. "It was terrifying&#8230; but it all worked out."

Why It's Important: Bezos currently has a net worth of $256 billion, making him rank fourth on Bloomberg's Billionaire <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/">Index</a>.
Apart from Bezos, several other high-profile CEOs have made memorable cameos on the big and small screens. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has turned up in multiple pop culture hits, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41557224/robert-downey-jr-on-elon-musk-cosplaying-tony-stark-wishes-billionaire-would-control-his-be">appearing as himself</a> in "Iron Man 2" and "The Big Bang Theory."
Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft Corporation, once appeared on "Frasier," playing himself during a radio interview segment.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin made a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo as himself in "The Internship." Dallas Mavericks owner and entrepreneur Mark Cuban has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/05/27306646/9-business-moguls-with-cameos-in-movies">popped up as himself</a> in hit shows like "Billions" and "Entourage."
Even investment icon Warren Buffett has joined in, portraying a job applicant on "The Office" and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/10/35132929/if-you-invested-1-000-in-berkshire-hathaway-stock-when-warren-buffett-appeared-in-the-entou">showing up as himself</a> in "Entourage" and "All My Children."
Bezos, meanwhile, has made two appearances in Hollywood — not only in Star Trek Beyond as an unrecognizable alien officer, but also years earlier as a security guard in &#8220;The Tooth Fairy.&#8221;

Jeff Bezos Is In A Star Trek Movie And He's Completely Unrecognizable — Amazon Founder Says He Made His Acting Debut By 'Literally Begging'

Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang is reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46336670/nvidia-prepares-china-specific-ai-chip-amid-us-export-curbs-as-ceo-jensen-huang-plans-beijing-visit-next-week-to-reassure-market-report">set to attend</a> the opening ceremony of China's international supply chain expo in Beijing on Wednesday. 
What Happened: The event is organized by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, which confirmed Huang&#8217;s attendance, according to Chinese state broadcaster CCTV, reported Reuters on Tuesday.&nbsp;
On Sunday, Nvidia officials also said Huang will hold a media briefing the same day.
Huang is also reportedly expected to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46336670/nvidia-prepares-china-specific-ai-chip-amid-us-export-curbs-as-ceo-jensen-huang-plans-beijing-visit-next-week-to-reassure-market-report">meet with senior Chinese officials</a>, including Premier Li Qiang and Vice Premier He Lifeng, during the International Supply Chain Expo in Beijing, though final approval of the meetings is still pending.

Why It's Important: Huang's presence at the expo comes as Nvidia navigates heightened U.S.-China trade tensions and increased export restrictions on advanced AI chips.
Over the weekend, Huang said in a CNN interview that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46397545/nvidias-jensen-huang-china-doesnt-need-us-chips">Chinese military isn't using</a> Nvidia's chips, noting that China can't rely on U.S. technology for its military since access could be cut off at any time.
Previously, it was also reported that Nvidia was planning to launch a scaled-down version of its Blackwell RTX Pro 6000 AI chip in China that complies with U.S. export controls.
The new chip, which drops advanced features like high-bandwidth memory and NVLink, is designed specifically for the Chinese market and could be unveiled as soon as September.
Price Action: Nvidia shares slipped 0.12% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings show that Nvidia maintains strong upward momentum across short, medium and long-term trends. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound'">You can find more detailed performance insights here</a>.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang To Attend China Supply Chain Expo In Beijing On Wednesday, Says State TV

Carbon removal buyer coalition Frontier has committed $41 million to climate tech startup Arbor Energy to scale a rocket-inspired biomass power plant that captures 99% of its carbon emissions. Frontier <a href="https://frontierclimate.com/writing/arbor">announced</a> last week that the deal will support Arbor's first commercial facility in southern Louisiana and aims to remove 116,000 tons of carbon dioxide by 2030.
Frontier is backed by Stripe, Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>, GOOGL)), Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Shopify (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>).

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Rocket Engineer's Climate Fix</h2>
Founded by former SpaceX engineer Brad Hartwig, Arbor developed a biomass power system that burns waste organic material to generate electricity, while capturing and sequestering nearly all resulting carbon emissions.&nbsp;
Hartwig <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/01/arbor-energy-bicrs-startup/">previously</a> described the plant as a "vegetarian rocket engine" due to its use of rocket-style turbomachinery and its carbon-free fuel source.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How It Works</h2>
According to TechCrunch, Arbor's process uses a proprietary gasifier to convert waste biomass into syngas—a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide—using supercritical CO2 from the plant itself. The syngas is then combusted with pure oxygen to produce water vapor, heat, and CO2.
The resulting high-temperature gases power a turbomachine to generate electricity. Most of the CO2 is captured and routed for permanent storage underground. A portion is cycled back to dissolve additional biomass in the gasifier.

The first plant will produce 5–10 megawatts of electricity, TechCrunch reported.&nbsp;
Frontier said the system can capture up to 99% of emitted CO2, far outperforming traditional carbon capture methods.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sustainable Biomass Use: A Key Priority</h2>
Frontier's head of deployment, Hannah Bebbington, emphasized that not all biomass is suitable for carbon removal. "We want to be careful that we're taking that into consideration," she told TechCrunch. "We require that every ton delivered also meets sustainable biomass principles in a very clear way."
Bebbington said that the biomass supply may range from one to five gigatons annually, but only a portion would meet sustainability criteria. Even if only one gigaton of biomass meets sustainability standards, she said, technologies like biomass carbon removal and storage, or BiCRS, and its close cousin, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, or BECCS, have significant long-term potential.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking Ahead</h2>
"We would like BECCS to be a major player for data centers, industrial electrification, grid resilience," Hartwig <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/08/frontier-is-helping-arbor-build-a-vegetarian-rocket-engine-to-power-data-centers/">told</a> TechCrunch. "But if any new fossil assets are built, we'd like those to all be zero emission as well."
The new deal builds on an <a href="https://frontierclimate.com/writing/fall-2022-purchases">earlier</a> pre-purchase agreement between Frontier and Arbor. Hartwig said the system is designed to be fuel flexible and could theoretically burn any source of hydrocarbons, including natural gas.&nbsp;
However, under the terms of the Frontier agreement, the plant will only burn biomass to meet carbon removal goals, TechCrunch reported.

Billionaire Elon Musk bought Twitter for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/04/31810229/elon-musk-bought-twitter-1-year-ago-a-look-back-at-whats-happened-since-and-what-could-be-next"> $44 billion in 2022</a> and, along with changing the name of the social media platform to X, has made an increased focus on monetization for top posts and creators on the platform.
One user may see future revenue after a moment of viral fame on the platform.

At the time of writing, the post has over 9,800 comments, 186,000 retweets and 114,000 likes.
X has not always shown the number of views on posts, but this may be the first to register the one billion milestone since that information became public.
"When I got hired at X in 2023 one of my first projects was to update the logic for number rounding on this app and I haven't seen billions in use until this post," X engineer Jonah Katz <a href="https://x.com/dinkin_flickaa/status/1944542448878834019">posted</a>.
