The most charitable interpretation of Platner still leaves us with someone plainly unfit for any elected office, much less the Senate. I don't think it's hyperbolic to say there are risks in putting into high office a person who keeps saying "whoops, another neo-Nazi association, I'm such a dummy."

The United States government is currently covering up evidence the President sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl and is demanding every AI company allow their products to be utilized for mass surveillance of Americans and autonomous weapons systems. Not great!

This stunt where ICE releases people far from home with no proper clothing and no way home should be treated as attempted homicide. In this case, actual homicide. These cases are not accidental or based on misunderstandings. They are deliberate attempts to inflict bodily harm.

AI will be used in situations where it isnât best practice for the same reason university admins continually destroy their schools and for the same reason everything good bought by private equity gets worse and for the same reason this criminal regime is stripping government down to spare parts.

My thoughts on AI and writing is simple: if you do not care enough to put time in to write and edit something, it signals to me that I should not put my time in to read it. Life is short. Why would I spend time reading something you care so little about?

VA Gov. Spanberger (moderate, was in CIA) and NYC Mayor Mamdani (left, is in DSA) both taking steps to block local law enforcement from helping ICE as it violently violates people's rights is a good example of how the relevant divide in the Dem coalition isn't center-left, it's fight-don't fight.

This is courage. Looking a masked, government fascist dead in the eye, face to face, knowing full well that your life is on the line. If elected officials had 1/10th of Alex Pretti's resolve, we would have far fewer troubles.

Only speaking personally, but todayâs execution isnât scaring me from protecting our neighbors, as some suggest is ICEâs goal. Nor am I angry with incandescent rage, in that I know such rage is unhelpful. Rather, I feel like it has forced me to truly accept that the same fate might befall me.
