Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi received $35,595,826 in total compensation for fiscal year 2025, per Uber's DEF14A filing with the SEC on March 23, 2026. That's 360× the median Uber employee's pay. Uber disclosed this ratio itself. SEC filing

The "median employee" doesn't include drivers. Uber classifies drivers as independent contractors, not employees. The people who wear their own cars, buy their own gas, and generate most of Uber's revenue — are excluded from the pay ratio by definition. Starkman

Khosrowshahi also sold 150,000 shares for ~$15 million in the six months before March 2026. Meanwhile, an Oxford study of 1.5 million Uber trips found Uber's cut of each fare has risen sharply since the rollout of "dynamic pricing" — from a traditional ~20-25% to significantly higher.

Andrew Tate called himself a trillionaire on a Twitch livestream with Adin Ross: "I became a trillionaire quite recently… the world's first trillionaire." Romanian authorities counted his verified assets: $12 million. He was arrested by U.S. Marshals on July 18, 2026 outside a bare-knuckle boxing event in Miami he was supposed to co-host.

He sold 221,000 subscribers "Hustler's University" at $49.99/month — a course on getting rich. The UK says he didn't pay taxes on £21 million of that revenue. The Crown Prosecution Service is seeking extradition on 38 new charges, bringing his total to 59 across three countries. Time

He lost a boxing match in December 2025 to Chase DeMoor — a younger influencer with far less experience. At the time, Tate was CEO of the boxing company that organized the fight. Yahoo Sports

A Polymarket user identified only as "xX25Xx" won approximately $34,000 by betting on Paris temperatures — and then allegedly walking to an unguarded weather sensor near Charles de Gaulle Airport and pointing a hair dryer at it.

The temperature reading spiked 4°C in twelve minutes. No other weather station in the Paris area recorded the anomaly. The winning bet was 20× larger than the user's typical wager. Humidity plunged simultaneously — consistent with hot, dry air from an appliance, not weather. Engadget

Météo-France filed a criminal complaint. French gendarmerie opened an investigation. Polymarket's response: they moved the sensor to a new location. No refunds were issued to other bettors. NPR

Discord user Sakuku's review: "The good old 'blowdryer with heat setting on the publicly-accessible weather monitoring station near the airport' scam. It's a classic."

President Trump signed H.R. 1 — the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" — on July 4, 2025. The Congressional Budget Office estimates the law will cut $625 billion from Medicaid over ten years and remove 7.8 million Americans from coverage through new work requirements, eligibility checks every six months instead of twelve, and reduced federal matching funds.

RAND Corporation estimates state Medicaid budgets will shrink by $665 billion. California alone loses $112 billion. More than 300 rural hospitals face what the American Hospital Association calls "immediate risk of closure." RAND

Starting December 2026, all non-exempt enrollees must complete 80 hours per month of "community engagement" and verify their status every six months. When Arkansas tested identical work requirements in 2018, 18,000 people lost coverage — the majority due to paperwork errors and reporting confusion, not because they stopped working.

The bill was signed on Independence Day.
