"The chances of #AGI’s arrival by 2027 now seem remote. The government has let #AI companies lead a charmed life, with almost zero #regulation. It now ought to enact legislation that addresses costs and harms unfairly offloaded onto the public." ~ @garymarcus.bsky.social

I still can’t understand why there isn’t a livestream on CNN, etc of Portland 24/7 and then split screened when he says this…

I saw the dot coms crash from a front row seat. AI is running out of money way faster. The evangelism is insecurity from people who made the wrong bet. I’ve seen it before. futurism.com/future-socie...

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

This is not a border crossing. There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior. This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

I’m old enough to remember the $21M Trump Seven Springs Estates conservation easement tax crime.

“I’m worried about my community… I’m out here in a frog costume to show how ridiculous the notion that we’re violent terrorists is, and showcase how that narrative is wrong…” Serious Q: is it too late to give this dude the Nobel Peace Prize? 🐸 🏆

What a surprise, I wonder who is to blame for that 🤔 Every Canadian I know boycotted it because of tariff wars.

The constant lies to steal power and money . . .

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

The Chicago Cubs *must* make it to the World Series and lose in order to correct the timeline In 2016 the natural order was disrupted by freak solar flares that temporarily allowed the Chicago Cubs to win - this angered God Everything you see now is a result of that tragic event We must go back.

PDX is refusing to play Kristi’s Propaganda video required at airports. Portland says F off

His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE “Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

It has been upsetting watching the establishment hurl itself at Mamdani but I think the other way to read that is that there really is a *better* politics possible and he shows that it is REAL. We could have this. They wouldn't fight it so hard if it wasn't achievable.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection. Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Hey, Sydette needs help. She is one of the people who makes the world brighter and better simply by existing. If you have the capacity, please consider dropping her what you can.

Chicagoland is a friendly, safe, vibrant, & fun place. I’m very happy my kids have grown up in the Rogers Park neighborhood of the city, & in Evanston. They’re both wonderful places. But ICE is attacking us. People are doing everything possible to protect their neighbors. But it’s hard.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Are Republicans refusing to swear in Democratic representative-elect Adelita Grijalva to prevent a vote on the Epstein files?

People are really asking me why the mainstream news is barely reporting the closing of special ed dept at DoEd like all our big media companies aren't owned and run by absolute psychopaths.

Pope Leo XIV weighed in on U.S. politics, saying that Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions and suggesting that the country's immigration policy is "inhuman."

Yeah I really need help with this . I’m gonna go hyperventilate into a bag but this has gone bad quickly

Just got my CAVA bag stuffed with cash from George Soros to attend the #NoKings rally on October 18th. Still waiting to hear from Antifa headquarters if one of their corporate jets is available. Otherwise, I'll use my Delta "American Terrorists As Bad As Isis Fly Free" coupon. Glory!

The President of the United States has a longer rap sheet than nearly everyone he’s trying to deport.

I have a theory www.theverge.com/policy/79849...

Satire but you know none of us would be shocked if it was real.

What does it mean for Dems in congress to vote for funding *anything*, when the president can very literally just ignore it. Just go "nope not gonna give em that money," and refuse to spend it where the vote said to spend it? If congress very obviously doesn't control spending, at all, anymore?

At least we no longer have to hear about freedom being in Americans' DNA or whatever. Turns out we love to eat shit and bow to some bloated halfwit like any other people throughout history

Witkoff tries to praise Netanyahu in Tel Aviv, but has a hard time finishing his thought because of booing

A library director in Wyoming who was fired two years ago because she refused to remove books with sexual content and LGBTQ themes from a library's children and young adult sections has just been awarded $700,000 in a settlement. t.co/EA5L1kOZfV

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education. America’s children deserve better than this.

Dr. Oz flunked math..... They all flunked math...... Stupidity, just like who pays the tariffs ?....

One evil man who murders civilians from his own and other countries consoles another evil man who murders civilians from his own and other countries for not getting an award for which neither evil man is even remotely deserving.

Unimaginable but he is the guy that could handle it!! LFG New York 🗳️

And people tell me the libs have no knack for messaging.

Gavin Newsom: “What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren’t screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It’s all at stake. People need to wake up. We can’t continue to play by the old set of rules.“

People are SHOWING OUT for today’s Protect Rogers Park ICE protest at Clark and Lunt! There are a lot of great resources here: - sign making - school watch group chats - ICE Watch newsletters - KYR posters - and more! Drop by before 3!!

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post: God Bless America isn't the national anthem. It's a SHOW TUNE written by Irving Berlin.

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!
