Is America Turning Fascist?
With the election of Donald Trump, we are seeing repeated use of another F-word to describe the direction America is going: fascist. But is that what is happening in the US, or is the term fascist being thrown about in blind ignorance? These accusations need scrutiny.
The Incurable TDS
by Deborah C. Tyler, American Thinker: We are living through an astonishing time in our nation’s political history. Somewhat more than half of Americans see President Trump as a leader of courage, energy, and commitment with a proven record of promoting peace and strengthening both the U.S. economy and the southern border against an illegal […]
Nvidia Blackwell Racks Reportedly Face “Overheating Problems,” Signaling Major Concern From Big Customers
Nvidia Blackwell Racks Reportedly Face “Overheating Problems,” Signaling Major Concern From Big Customers
Ahead of Nvidia’s earnings report on Wednesday after the bell, a new report from The Information reveals that the world’s most valuable company has requested suppliers to redesign the racks for new Blackwell graphics cards to address overheating issues.
According to the report…
In recent months, Nvidia has asked its suppliers to change the design of the racks several times as it has tried to overcome the overheating problems, according to Nvidia employees who have been working on the issue, as well as several customers and suppliers with knowledge of it. Word of the repeated design changes has sparked anxiety among customers about a potential delay in when they will be able to use the racks.
In August, Bloomberg reported that Nvidia’s highly anticipated Blackwell series of AI chips encountered “engineering snags,” which signifies the mounting challenges of meeting customer demand for its AI GPUs.
Here’s more from The Information:
Now, though, some big customers are concerned. While Nvidia often changes its server designs before launch, changes to the Blackwell racks have come late in the production process, according to several customers and suppliers. However, Nvidia may still be able to deliver the racks to customers by the end of the first half next year, in line with its original schedule, and it hasn’t notified customers of a delay.
Meta Platforms, Elon Musk’s xAI, and Microsoft are some of Nvidia’s largest customers. Next year (likely in the second half), Nvidia will deliver new Blackwell racks to server farms.
The Information’s report comes ahead of a major earnings catalyst for the world’s most valuable company on Wednesday after the bell.
Goldman’s Toshiya Hari recently published a note on Nvidia, indicating “GS Research is bullish here…”
-
GS Research is bullish here as Toshi models $34.3bn (+14% qoq, +90% yoy) in revenue, 75.4% in non-GAAP gross margin (excl. SBC) and $0.79 in non-GAAP EPS (excl. SBC) – all above cons. The magnitude of Nvidia’s revenue beats have narrowed over the last few quarters, but could expand again in CY2025 driven by Blackwell. Though Toshiya expects FY1Q to be the true ‘break out’ quarter in which the ramp of Blackwell coupled with improved supply-side conditions drives meaningful positive EPS revisions, he expects FY3Q guidance and management commentary on the earnings call to support his constructive thesis. Four of Nvidia’s largest customers (GOOGL, META, MSFT and AMZN) reported earnings with GOOGL, MSFT and AMZN explicitly stating or implying that supply, not demand, remains a constraining factor.
-
Investor sentiment skews positive into results on Nov 20th (desk thinks sentiment = 9 out of 10, up from last qtr) with investors focused on the upcoming Blackwell product ramp as well as broader commentary around visibility and ROIs / use-cases for GenAI (think: Agents / Assistants, robotaxis, etc). Into CY25, key debates on the stock are around linearity of spending as LLMs continue to scale, customer diversification (think: Enterprise, Sovereigns) and margins (GMs/mix + Opex/R&D). Hedge funds have net bought AI stocks since October, and investors for the most part plan to maintain long positions.
In recent sessions, some of Nvidia’s most active options have been calls linked to shares soaring to $155 and $162.50 after earnings. Nvidia shares closed Friday at $141.98. Shares are up 187% on the year. About 1% of the float is short.
Shares are about 2% lower in premarket trading.
Meanwhile, insiders have been dumping shares…
All eyes will be on Nvidia ER on Wednesday.

On Monday, President Joe Biden, 81, approved the use of American-supplied long-range missiles by Ukraine to strike targets within Russia. […]

The Inflationists’ Narrative Is Crumbling
Let’s be realistic. The U.S. needs pro-growth strategies and tax cuts, but no administration will be able to offset a $1 trillion increase in mandatory spending with higher tax revenues.
FLASHBACK: Rubio Worked with Hillary’s Running Mate to ‘Trump-Proof’ NATO
by Jack Montgomery, The National Pulse: President-elect Donald J. Trump’s efforts to recalibrate America’s one-sided relationship with NATO face hurdles because of Senator Marco Rubio’s (R-FL) efforts to “Trump-proof” U.S. foreign policy. The Florida neoconservative worked with Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA), Hillary Clinton‘s 2016 running mate, to pass legislation banning the U.S. President from exiting NATO without […]
‘Left Is A Vicious Wounded Tiger’ – Larry Klayman Warns “They Want Us Dead”
‘Left Is A Vicious Wounded Tiger’ – Larry Klayman Warns “They Want Us Dead”
ViaGreg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com,
Renowned Attorney Larry Klayman, founder of Judicial Watch and later Freedom Watch, has been fighting government corruption and winning for decades.
Today, the fight has turned into an all-out war and fight to the death. Klayman explains, “Bottom line is we have been in a war, but now we are at red alert…”
” The fact that Donald Trump has been reelected the 47th President of the United States with the popular vote and an overwhelming landslide in the Electoral College, the Left is on the run, but it’s stung. It’s like a wounded tiger. It’s vicious. It will fight back…
You are going to see the Left in the streets, ultimately. It will probably be in days, if not weeks. You are going to see a repeat of what we saw with Black Lives Matter, ANTIFA, radical Palestinians and others. They are going to be coming for us.
Frankly, and this sounds extreme, we saw the assassination attempts… and Kamala Harris and Biden calling Trump Hitler, calling them garbage and calling us garbage, they want us dead. Let me repeat that. They want us dead…They are like rats leaving the ship.
The time to peacefully and legally crush them is now.”
Klayman also sees that things may not stay peaceful.
Klayman points out, “It’s only a matter of time because they are whipping up the hatred right now against all of us garbage men…”
” It’s only a matter of time that he (President Trump) may have to declare martial law to reestablish order here. I hope it doesn’t get to that. But he (the President) has that authority as well.
So, I want people to realize that there may be a calm in the storm right now, but the communists, the atheists, the radicals and the Left are coalescing. They are plotting, and they are planning.
This is like the ‘Force’ in ‘Star Wars’ and ‘Darth Vader.’ They intend to come back anyway they can.
If they can’t do it peacefully and legally, which they can’t, they are going to get violent, and we better be prepared for that.”
Klayman also points out that President Trump cannot turn America around without the help of millions of patriots. Klayman says,
“He needs us to back him. We need to fight for him if necessary. Here’s the scary thing. God forbid, but I don’t think this is the last assassination attempt. I think there will be more. . . . This kid that took a crack at Trump in Butler, we don’t know what his motive was today. . . . We’ve never gotten the truth about anything.
We don’t know who killed John F. Kennedy. Even Bobby Kennedy Jr. does not believe that Sirhan Sirhan killed his father.
Martin Luther King’s family does not believe that James Earl Ray was the assassin of Martin Luther King. It was probably Edgar Hoover the FBI Director. . . .
We don’t know anything about the two people that tried to assassinate Donald Trump because our government is corrupt to the core, and that is why the Left is going to resist. Our government needs to be reconstituted. Embedded in government is the Deep State, and it is more powerful than the President.”
Klayman is appealing to the incoming Trump Administration to make him the Czar in charge of picking judicial appointments.
Klayman says too many RINO judges were put on the bench during Trump’s first Administration.
Klayman is also representing Laura Loomer in a $150 million defamation lawsuit against HBO and Bill Maher. Klayman is also the lawyer of record on many other groundbreaking cases. Klayman also talks about the need for donations as the 2024 Election cycle took donations away from FreedomWatchUSA.org. Klayman makes an appeal for badly needed funds so he can continue his work for “We the People” against government corruption.
There is much more in the one-hour in-depth interview.
Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with renowned lawyer and government corruption fighter, Larry Klayman, founder of FreedomWatchUSA.org as he lays out the evil that criminals on the Left and RINO’s are planning for America.
