Xbox CEO Asha Sharma says the division must face harsh realities including massive revenue drops, component crises, and an overextended studio system, but doesn't specify who's actually staring them down
This email is a brutal indictment of the series of decisions and events that led Xbox to where it is today. It condemns just about every strategy the company has attempted over the last decade and change, from its relentless gobbling-up of a huge chunk of the industry’s dwindling AA space only to fail to adequately support most of it, to its endless flip-flopping between a focus on consoles to an emphasis on subscription services to turning everything into an Xbox. Its spending, it seems, has been out of control, and it has little to show for it. Sharma and Booty are claiming to be the ones to fix it, though it’s worth noting that Booty himself was part of the team that oversaw it almost a decade. | |

President Donald Trump has said he "loves the inflation" as US prices rose last month at their fastest rate in three years.
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) figures showed prices went up by 4.2% in May from a year earlier. The increase, from 3.8% in April, was driven by rising energy costs in the wake of the US-Israel war in Iran.
"I love it. The numbers were great. You know what I really love? I love the inflation," Trump said at the White House. | |

In May, the crypto industry won big as the Senate Banking Committee advanced the Clarity Act. It passed largely along party lines, but two Democrats with crypto-friendly records, Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD), broke with their colleagues to support the bill. Last September, Alsobrooks and Gallego partnered with 10 other Senate Democrats to articulate their wishlist for the Clarity Act; their demands are more permissive than the hardline anti-crypto politics of Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and the party’s progressive wing. However, they did pay lip service to consumer protection, strong regulatory agencies, and a provision to limit the Trump family’s crypto-powered corruption.
Unfortunately, the Clarity Act will not achieve these goals. Instead, as Senator Warren observed, “Nothing made it into this bill that wasn’t approved by the crypto industry.”
The legislation would hand regulation of most digital assets to a Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) captured by private interests. The CFTC spent 2025 dropping cases against crypto companies at the behest of acting chair Caroline Pham. Then, in December, Pham left to become Chief Legal Officer of the crypto firm MoonPay. Now, the Commission’s board, which was designed to have a bipartisan membership of five, is currently chaired by one Trump loyalist who slashed a fifth of its already paltry staff. It’s this office which would have to manage a workload that one former CFTC lawyer has claimed would be equivalent to handling the behemoth Dodd-Frank financial regulatory law. Even the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is better equipped to police the industry, has fared poorly over the past 18 months amidst an onslaught of Trump admin crypto policy. | |

With Raw Farm, the largest raw-milk dairy in the country, Mark McAfee has capitalized on a once-fringe product that’s been thrust into the mainstream in recent years and backed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital, and they have been sick, but they recovered,” McAfee acknowledged before my visit. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer. And I’m going against the grain here. I’m climbing a mountain they say you can’t climb.” | |

A woman who tricked a family that took her in into believing she was a child maintained the charade for more than a year, police in Brazil say.
Officers in the southern Santa Catarina state announced an arrest last week in a disturbing case alleged to have involved a 37-year-old woman now facing charges related to fraud and false identity.
It’s alleged that the woman, who was not named by police, was pretending to be a 12-year-old girl named “Gabriele.”
She lied about having autism and other medical conditions “to gain the family’s trust,” police claimed in a Portuguese news release translated to English. She also claimed she’d been subjected to forced hormone treatment in her childhood, in an effort to justify why she physically appeared as an adult, police said. | |
