It's all related afaict
I'm british, so this should be unvarnished good news. but I just can't imagine this will survive any time past the first bad fox news headline.
This announcement itself has Vance, Sankar, and Kupor's fingerprints all over it.
For tech policy this admin is a basically A16Z and Founders Fund people, but the last admin leaned Sequoia Capital.
This is why you see a lot of crypto (A16Z) this admin and GreenTech (Sequoia) the last admin.
No, but its not based on real law either. Its just whatever the leadership thinks it can get away with.
If you can please the head of the court, then you can do what you want. if you fall out of favour, so do your plans.
Especially the part about helping the UK become Russia-independent for energy.
-The U.K. commits to buying over $80 billion from U.S. tech & defense companies over the next five years. -The U.K. firm GSK (a pharmaceutical company) announced a ~$30 billion investment in AI R&D and infrastructure in the U.S.
-There will be regulatory cooperation to speed up approvals/licensing in nuclear energy.
Once accomplished the US will have complete energy dominance over the UK and the EU.
They just recognized it "UK formally recognises Palestinian state"

As a Brit, I trust Trump as far as I can throw him, and he's very fat, so that's not very far.

These are all fine, and some things might even actually happen. (Deals like these tend to diminish as you get closer to money actually changing hands.) International cooperation is good. It's just a little weird that it had to happen between two countries who have been explicitly rejecting international cooperation.
