Photo: Imane Khelif (Instagram) Imane Khelif , an Algerian boxer, has shared exciting news: she’s turning professional after winning a gold medal at the Paris Olympics. Despite facing criticism and false claims about her gender , Khelif is moving forward with her career. The 25-year-old boxer won the gold after a controversial start at the Olympics, where her opponent, Italy’s Angela Carini , withdrew from their match in just 46 seconds due to Khelif’s strength. This led to unproven rumors about her gender, which spread quickly on social media. Public figures like JK Rowling and Donald Trump even joined the debate. Khelif called these attacks "cruel" and has since sued Elon Musk 's platform, X, after it amplified some of the claims. Khelif, speaking on Sunday, said she plans to enter the world of professional boxing. “I want to share my story with the media and young women who look up to me,” she said. She also mentioned that a documentary about her journey is in the wor...

Photo: Elon Musk (Instagram) Billionaire Elon Musk announced on Saturday that he will give away $1 million each day to someone who signs his online petition supporting the U.S. Constitution. He plans to continue this until the November election. At an event in Pennsylvania, Musk gave the first $1 million check to a man named John Dreher. “John had no idea. So anyway, you’re welcome,” Musk said as he handed Dreher the check. Musk, the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, is using his wealth to influence the close race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris . He started a group called America PAC to support Trump’s campaign, helping register voters in key states. However, the group is reportedly having trouble reaching its goals. Photo: Elon Musk (Instagram) The Pennsylvania event was Musk's third in the state, where he urged people to vote early and get others to do the same. He warned that if Harris wins, it could be “the last election,” and he pointed to two assassination attempts agai...

Photo: Mark Zuckerberg (Instagram) Mark Zuckerberg , the CEO of Meta, is now worth $200 billion, putting him in a small group of the world's richest people. He joins Elon Musk , CEO of Tesla, and Jeff Bezos , the founder of Amazon, who both have net worths over $200 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Zuckerberg's wealth jumped by $72 billion this year, thanks to Meta’s stock going up by nearly 60%. The stock is now worth over $560 per share. Bezos also saw his wealth grow by $39 billion, bringing his total to $216 billion, while Musk's fortune rose by $36 billion, bringing his total to $265 billion. The only person worth $200 billion at the start of the year besides Musk was Bernard Arnault, the CEO of luxury goods company LVMH. However, Arnault’s wealth has dropped by $30 billion this year, taking him out of the $200 billion club.

Photo: Elon Musk (Instagram) Elon Musk didn’t show up for a scheduled testimony with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) about his $44 billion takeover of Twitter (now called X). Because of this, the SEC is asking a court to take action against him. Earlier this year, a judge ordered Musk to testify about whether he followed the law when buying Twitter stock and if his comments about the deal were misleading. After some back and forth, Musk agreed to testify on September 10. But just three hours before the scheduled testimony, Musk’s lawyer said he couldn’t make it because he had to go to the East Coast for the launch of a SpaceX mission. The SEC claims Musk didn’t follow the rules for changing the date of his testimony, which was set by the court. They also argue that Musk knew about the SpaceX launch ahead of time and could have given the SEC more notice, but he didn’t.

Photo: Larry Ellison, Jeff Bezos (Instagram) Larry Ellison, the Chairman of Oracle, has become the second-richest person in the world, overtaking Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. This change happened as Oracle's stock surged by 5.1% on Monday, continuing its strong performance. Ellison's wealth grew by $8.1 billion since Friday, reaching $206 billion. Bezos, who had held the second spot for many years, is now worth $203 billion. Elon Musk , the CEO of Tesla, remains the richest person, with $251 billion. Oracle’s recent stock increase comes after the company reported earnings that exceeded expectations. This helped boost its future revenue forecasts and contributed to Ellison’s rise in wealth.

Photo: Larry Ellison (Instagram) One reason for Oracle's success is its involvement in the growing field of artificial intelligence. Ellison shared that Oracle is building data centers to meet the inc...

Photo: Elon Musk (Instagram) Elon Musk , the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is on the path to becoming the world's first trillionaire. His businesses, which include electric cars, space rockets, and even brain implants, have made him the richest person in the world with a fortune of nearly $250 billion. Experts from Informa Connect Academy predict Musk could hit the trillion-dollar mark by 2027.

The Kansas City Chiefs player, who has been dating Taylor Swift since 2023, showed enthusiasm for the electric truck.

Photo: Instagram/Mark Cuban Mark Cuban , the former owner of the Dallas Mavericks, believes NBA players should not participate in the Olympics. He has often said that the Olympics are more about business than sports. Recently, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been criticized for its strict copyright rules, which led to some clips being removed from the Internet. Elon Musk called out the IOC for this, and Cuban agreed, saying the IOC is all about money. Cuban argues that the NBA is "subsidizing" the U.S. Olympic Committee and the IOC by letting NBA players participate. He worries that these players might get injured during the games.

Cuban thinks the Olympics should follow the soccer rule where most players are under 23, with a few exceptions. He also believes professional players should not be allowed in the Olympic basketb...

Photo: Instagram/Mark Cuban Mark Cuban has criticized Joe Rogan and Elon Musk for their stance on vaccination and their negative portrayal of the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Cuban, who owns Cost Plus Drugs, responded to Rogan's tweet referring to the medical industry as "heartless monsters" by pointing out the life-saving contributions of the industry. He expressed his disappointment in Rogan for disregarding the positive impact of the medical field and undermining the efforts of doctors, researchers, and medical professionals dedicated to saving lives.
