Baby Acc.
The tax-deferred investing accounts, which launched on July 4, can include a one-time $1,000 deposit from the Treasury Department for kids born between 2025 and 2028. Other funds may also be available for qualifying families.
But because signing up for a Trump Account has required families to "opt in" by filing IRS Form 4547 with their tax return or via TrumpAccounts.gov, overall participation rates, especially among low-income families, has been low, research shows.
The Social Security Administration previously said it would introduce a process to enroll newborns at the hospital at the same time families request a Social Security number during the birth registration process.
Griffin..
No university in the history of US education has received such a donation until Citadel founder Ken Griffin pledged an unprecedented $3 billion to Carnegie Mellon University.
Part of the money will go towards making a new campus in Miami where Griffin stays and the rest will be for the development of the university campus in Pittsburgh.
Griffin’s $3 billion gift will consist of $1 billion to support CMU’s Pittsburgh campus, split evenly between flexible support for the university’s highest priorities and a $500 million investment in its top-ranked School of Computer Science, which will be renamed the Kenneth C Griffin School of Computer Science. An additional $2 billion will support the launch of CMU Miami," the university announced.
The Miami campus will support more than 3,500 undergraduate, master’s and PhD students, nearly 300 faculty and more than 600 staff members, with construction slated to begin in 2027.
Griffin will also become a member of Carnegie Mellon’s board of trustees. The board already includes hedge fund billionaire David Tepper, a Carnegie Mellon graduate and donor.

Round tripping..
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Wednesday blamed Ukraine for causing high oil prices by attacking Russian energy targets — as the Trump administration scrambles to lower prices at the pump ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections.
Bessent’s remarks implicating Ukraine could serve as a warning to Kyiv, which has leaned on the US for military equipment to fend off Russia’s nearly five-year invasion.
“Ukraine has decided that they want to blow up Russian energy assets and refined products. So that is creating upward price pressure on a global basis,” Bessent told “Fox & Friends.”
So The United States give weapons to the Ukraine to defend itself, but it is used to increase US oil cost in the world. No wonder. Just a thought.
