Said on Squawk Pod

“It seems like a great idea to be able to trade all the time. But you think back to the great financial crisis and the things that they had to do on the weekends to make these deals happen, because the only time that they could put them together was when there wasn't trading, active trading.” — Becky Quick, Squawk Pod

“This is the future of trading. This is going to be 24 hours a day trading. If you want to trade on the weekend, if there's an oil shock or there's a war, this is how you would do it.” — Andrew Ross Sorkin, Squawk Pod

“In the podcast in the Builders series, I talked to Musk, and he said that he was too out front. He felt he was doing way too much showmanship… What he's doing now is spending twice as much money, but more quietly behind the scenes, especially on things like get out the vote, targeted ads, things he did so well in Pennsylvania two years ago.” — Walter Isaacson, Squawk Pod

“He created Starshield, which is the smart thing to do, I think, which is to say Starshield is a military use of Starlink. Let's have the Pentagon or the government be in charge… This is something that should not be a private citizen doing it.” — Walter Isaacson, Squawk Pod

“If you are outside the US, if you are Ukraine, or frankly, if you're any country in Europe, this whole episode has taught you that you are at the mercy of Elon Musk unless the US government overrules him. And that is a very uncomfortable position to be in.” — Zanny Minton Beddoes, Squawk Pod

“I think an AI companion is actually an oxymoron because relationships are a two-way street. It's not just about what you receive, it's also about what you give. And you have nothing to give to an AI. It doesn't need your emotional support. It doesn't feel joy when you tell a joke.” — Adam Grant, Squawk Pod

“Now, all of a sudden, we're getting that same issuance, but in the equity markets, right? SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic. Is there going to be a crowding out effect there? Is that going to create a bear market in 27? I'm sure 27, some point, I'll be short the whole year.” — Paul Tudor Jones, Squawk Pod

“No politician is going to voluntarily raise taxes or cut spending. They're going to be forced to. And the only question is, are we now at that tipping point where the market's about to do that? And if you put a gun to my head, I'd say 60-40, we're down that path.” — Paul Tudor Jones, Squawk Pod

“We have launched a House Democratic Commission on Artificial Intelligence and the Innovation Economy. … They're leading an effort to talk to stakeholders, community members, advocacy groups, in order to actually come up with a thoughtful approach to AI policy as we transition from being in the minority to being in the majority, which is where we believe we will be after the November midterm elections. … And we are going to have to deal with the job implications as it relates to workforce displacement. That will be a core issue that will be on the agenda for us.” — Hakeem Jeffries, Squawk Pod
Hakeem Jeffries · 25 Jun 2026 Listen →
“The Democratic Party at its best, the country at its best, believes in a strong floor and no ceiling. In other words, you work hard, you play by the rules in this country, you should be able to live an affordable life, a comfortable life, at minimum, a middle-class life. There should be no ceiling, in fact, to the success that you're able to achieve. But at the same period of time, there should be a strong floor.” — Hakeem Jeffries, Squawk Pod
