It continues to be incredible that congressional Democrats are too incompetent at politics and messaging to make any hay out of things like this. I mean WTF! Why are taxpayers paying for a security detail for some C list country music singer that happens to date FB Director Googly Eyes?

The MTG pivot is a good dragnet for identifying the most gullible people in all of mankind. Also, it's cross-political. You can identify the easiest marks left, right, and center here. A very easy, inoffensive, diverse way to identify our society's finest wallet inspector customers

Hakeem Wonāt endorse or even utter the name of New York Cities new mayor because he is Muslim but Hakeem will try to fellate a literal white supremacism who helped attempt an insurrection. These democrats are fundamentally dangerous people and must be removed from power in any capacity.

Only insane people would seek out the counsel of Larry Summers, who relies on Jeffrey Epstein for dating advice and Milton Friedman for economic inspiration. Nonetheless, this is exactly what CAP and other elite organizations have done.

Companies keep blaming AI for layoffs, when itās really cost cutting when shitty management puts them between a rock and a hard place, or simply laying off American workers to hire cheap indentured H1-B workers. LLM chatbots donāt work for shit & canāt replace workers.

Amazonās Layoffs Are Business as Usual, Not Omens of AI Doom
The recent round of Amazon corporate layoffs isnāt a sign of an imminent AI apocalypse. It's an expression of the company's brutal corporate culture, enabled by its use of the H-1B visa program.

It continues to baffle me why people think these newsreaders are actual journalists or interested in committing acts of actual journalism. Most of them are failed hair & hand models, not subject matter experts, nor do they book subject matter experts to help either. Itās all talkinghead bullshit.

It's a revealing moment... J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost. The inconsistency reveals this isnāt about economics.

I know South Park does some just in time writing and animation for their shows, but it seems unlikely they would be so on the nose as to have been able to turn around this week's episode about Trump's gay relationship with Vance after the Clinton blowie news yesterday. What a time to be alive!

This is why I am so vehemently down on people scaremongering the trans community. The assault on the trans community is one on our dignity, trying to drive us to suicide. Scaremongering does their work for them. Repeat after me: I am too punk to kill myself when my government wants me to.

Although many people are saying it, I do not believe our current president sucked off former president Bill Clinton on camera. I have not seen sufficient evidence that our current president gave the former president a blowie in a way that was memorialized in a photo. That's not something I believe.

I legitimately think this article misses the mark, because Canadians are not avoiding travel out of some principled boycott of the USA over tariffs. Canadians who are avoiding the USA are seeing images of masked government thugs kidnapping people and teargassing children.

The NYT has throttled huge national news stories by burying coverage on A-13, burned and buried more chances to say the truth about Trump than anyone even knew existed, has been a huge driver of American institutional transphobia, and also does not meaningfully cover NYC anymore. Whatās the point?
