"'There is going to be a growing appetite from voters to support candidates that are going to help them manage the potential coming disaster as AI poisons our kids and destroys all of our jobs.'" lnk.thebulwark.com/48Q7j6Z

America has always just been an idea. 250 years of an idea. Ups and downs but the idea is democracy. And that's been ok up to this point. We just need to hold onto it.

We are so far off the playing field here we can't even see the stadium.

"'The cultural and economic impact of AI is going to be the biggest issue in politics over the next decade,' Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) told me this week." There's an opportunity there: lnk.thebulwark.com/48Q7j6Z

Pete Hegseth should be impeached.

#Erasure It's simple. Erase what doesn't suit your MAGA narrative.

Neanderthal 🫩

Greedy little pigs

"Pete Hegseth seems to be a war criminal. Without a war. An interesting achievement. ... The killing of the survivors by this moral slum of an administration should nauseate Americans. A nation incapable of shame is dangerous, not least to itself"

😆

Agree 100%

MAGA is as MAGA does 🤷🏻‍♀️

😆

100% unfit for the Presidency. Hell, unfit for anything!

"These people are garbage." —Donald Trump, while being garbage. “They took billions of dollars.” —Donald Trump, while taking billions of dollars. "They accomplish nothing." —Donald Trump, while accomplishing nothing. "All they do is complain." —Donald Trump, while complaining. #Projection

Trump is illegally attacking boats allegedly carrying drugs. He brags about being tough on drug dealers. Meanwhile, he pardons the former Honduran president — a man convicted in American court of bringing hundreds of tons of cocaine to the U.S. You can’t make this stuff up.

#WhiskeyPete is in some big trouble.

If AI eliminates millions of jobs, how will people survive? Will AI destroy democracy with a massive invasion of our privacy? Could a superintelligent AI replace humans in controlling the planet? We must act NOW. AI must benefit all of us, not just billionaire investors.

"The extent to which young people can get their hands on semi-automatic weapons is just insane to me, and I think there is a way to do that without, you know, violating the Second Amendment." @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @gtconway.bsky.social discuss gun regulation.

Hegseth is a cold blooded murderer 🤷🏻‍♀️

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@markhertling.bsky.social: “When you're talking about striking against someone who's wounded and clinging to debris…Deliberately targeting such a person isn't a tactical decision, it's a war crime by the Geneva Convention, the laws of land warfare, and the U.N. Charter.”

Love this. #FightBack

Today is World AIDS Day. The White House ignored the AIDS crisis when it began because a Republican (Reagan) was president. The United States is no longer observing World AIDS Day because another Republican (Trump) is president. #Bigots

The Trump administration's corruption has extended to selling out Ukraine—and America's interests—to Russia so that the Trump family and their friends can make a few bucks. Must-read reporting from @wsj.com this weekend. www.wsj.com/world/russia...

About time

Thou shalt not pretend that you’re at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.

"… in the present instance, it was perfectly clear to the accused that killing defenceless people in the life-boats could be nothing else but a breach of the law. As naval officers by profession they were well aware …."

The only thing Pete Hegseth shows any competency in is creating great exhibits for criminal investigations are trials.

One of the things prosecutors must show in a murder trial is the defendant's intent. Intent can be tricky to prove, so one day a lawyer or two will thank Pete Hegseth for proving it for them. He's smart that way.

Thank you @gtconway.bsky.social Great read.

Why is it so hard to call a murderer a murderer!? This is clearly a war crime.

“Kill them all” is a confession to murder under American law. “Kill them all” is a confession to an evil act. Pete Hegseth is a war criminal, and so is Donald Trump. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/kill-them-...

"'History’s eyes are on the Supreme Court,' she said. 'This court will have to decide, is it going to be the court that puts an end to American democracy as we know it'..." www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Targeting the free press is nothing new for this administration or for Trumpism but this feels like an elevation of hostiles

I give him 3-5 months 👍🏻

Sec of war confesses to war crimes while trying to dunk on the MSM

ICE is using Uber stickers in order to disguise themselves and kidnap people. Spread this for awareness!

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal. Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military. Pure, mindless, barbarism. www.thedailybeast.com/pentagon-pet...
