The A.M. Update Week in Review highlights key moments from the week. Malcolm Gladwell’s Wall Street Journal talk argues driverless cars, tested with Waymo in Phoenix, are too safe, incentivizing pedestrian misbehavior like kids playing soccer on streets, potentially causing urban gridlock. A discussion with Dr. Beisner reframes the global warming debate as not about human contribution (which he concedes is negligible) but about whether Earth exists for human flourishing or vice versa, questioning if conceding human impact is strategic. Tucker Carlson’s Turning Point USA speech critiques conservatives for focusing on minor victories like gender in sports while ignoring bigger issues like drugs and economic decline, linking moral and middle-class decay. Richard Nixon’s In the Arena excerpt on 1960s education dysfunction parallels today’s societal challenges, emphasizing education as a linchpin. The Trump administration earns a B+/A grade, marred by slow DOJ/FBI action on accountability, despite strong immigration and military recruitment gains. A poll shows 70.3% give Trump a “pass,” with critiques on Epstein files and Syria policy.   Malcolm Gladwell, driverless cars, Waymo, pedestrian behavior, global warming, Dr. Beisner, human flourishing, Tucker Carlson, Turning Point USA, moral decay, middle class, Richard Nixon, education dysfunction, Trump administration, DOJ accountability, Epstein files
