21 Hilarious Nicknames Donald Trump Should Call Elon Musk
Donald Trump has been known to give nicknames to the people he hates.
There's Cocaine Mitch.
Who could forget Tiny D?
I wish he stuck with Meatball Ron, TBH.
And my personal favorite, Mini Mike Bloomberg.
Considering their breakup, it's fair to assume Trump will give Elon a nickname of his own, and The Lincoln Project asked people to suggest some possible nicknames.
Here are some of the best ones:
"Musk-Rat"
"Space Baby"
"Wee-lon"
"Eloon"
"Space Karen"
"Crazy Elon"
"Elon Dust"
"Squealing Elon"
"Egomaniac Elon"
"Crybaby Elon"
"Tesla Twerp"
"Musky Musk and the Funky Nuts"
"Elon Bust"
"The Martian"
"Rocket Boy"
"Sleaz-on"
"Testicla"
"Medicore Musk"
"Elien"
"Erratic Elon"
And lastly, "Manic Musk"

The advice Elon Musk's lawyer gives his high-profile clients in times of crisis
High profile attorney Alex Spiro has one key piece of advice for clients wading through tricky times: Don't panic. The words of wisdom were shared as one of his most high-profile clients, Elon Musk, is in the midst of a public feud with President Donald Trump. It's unclear if or how the attorney is guiding him through this particular debacle. The lawyer, who has also represented Alec Baldwin, Mayor Eric Adams, and Jay-Z, through muddy legal waters, shared the advice he gives to clients during times of crisis at the Forbes Iconoclast Summit on Thursday. "You got to get people to take a breath and not panic," Spiro said, adding that it's easier for some people to do so more than others. A source close to Spiro got more specific. Those who know him know that his No. 1 piece of advice is to "have an ice-cream cone." In other words, step away from the keyboard and cool off. "Nothing is better than chocolate ice cream," the source close to Spiro said. The attorney isn't certain whether clients listen to the advice, but they at least pretend to, the source said. Spiro, who spends a good chunk of his time on risk mitigation, told the Iconoclast Summit attendees that he tries to get clients to put their situation into perspective and focus on the facts and evidence in front of them. "The sky is not falling," Sprio said. "The things that we think are a big deal today won't be a big deal in a month." While most CEOs aren't publicly blasting the president on social media, many are navigating global and economic uncertainty, from looming tariffs to market volatility. Spiro said the best CEOs and CFOs he knows know how to take a "methodical" approach to uncertainty, which in the case of tariffs, would involve looking into their supply chains and preparing for what may happen next. "I try to follow and steal the best ideas from the smartest people I know and then tell others about it," Spiro said. "That works out usually." Musk is one of those people. Spiro said on Thursday that Musk likes to cut costs during times of uncertainty because it leaves organizations more nimble on the other side. The billionaire is most recently known for doing so in the government, where he led efforts to slash about 20,000 federal employees, or about 1% of its workforce. Musk also laid off 10% of Tesla's workforce in waves last year and cut Twitter's workforce in half after he purchased it in 2022.

Senior Taiwan official visits site of new Alaska LNG project
TAIPEI (Reuters) -A senior Taiwanese official said on Saturday he had this week visited the site of a potentially enormous new liquified natural gas (LNG) project in Alaska that the Trump administration has been pushing hard to allies in Asia as a supply option. Energy developer Glenfarne had said on Tuesday that 50 firms had formally expressed interest in contracts worth more than $115 billion from its Alaska LNG project, a massive infrastructure deal championed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Writing on his Facebook page, Pan Men-an, secretary-general to Taiwan President Lai Ching-te, said he had attended an energy conference in Alaska at the invitation of U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright and visited the state's North Slope. Phase One of the project is expected to deliver natural gas about 1,230 km (765 miles) from the North Slope to the Anchorage region. "Despite the freezing temperatures, we talked enthusiastically about building resilience and responsibility as democratic partners in the face of global climate change and the challenges of authoritarianism," Pan wrote. "In the face of trade challenges and international turbulence, we have no choice but to rise to the occasion," he said, without mentioning whether he had signed any deals while there. The presidential office said late on Friday that Pan had been accompanied by Fang Jeng-zen, chairman of Taiwan's state-owned energy company CPC. CPC in March signed a non-binding agreement to buy LNG and invest in the project, a move Taiwan's president has said would ensure the island's energy security. If built, the Alaska LNG project will export up to 20 million metric tons of the superchilled gas a year. It would open direct access for U.S.-made LNG to Asian markets without having to go through the Panama Canal or around the Horn of Africa, reducing transit time and costs. Taiwan has pledged to massively ramp up its purchases from the United States, including energy, to reduce a yawning trade surplus that has angered Washington.

Our favorite photos from Bitcoin 2025
From May 27 to 29, some 35,000 people gathered at the Venetian Expo Center in Las Vegas for Bitcoin 2025, the world's largest annual gathering of bitcoin industry professionals and enthusiasts. As Jacob Silverman reports in a feature dispatch from the conference for Business Insider, "More than anything, Bitcoin 2025 was a victory celebration for an industry that pushed all its chips in behind Donald Trump and the Republican Party during the 2024 election cycle and won handsomely." This year's speakers included Vice President JD Vance, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., White House crypto and AI czar David Sacks, Sen. Jim Justice (who shared the stage with his bulldog, Babydog), Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, and the recently pardoned Silk Road drug market founder Ross Ulbricht. BI also sent photographer David Becker to cover the conference, and his photos captured the energy and triumphalism of the sprawling bitcoin community today.
