AI is is the perfect capitalist machine. It steals from everyone, destroys the environment, monetizes the stolen goods and gives the profits to a mere handful of people.

They want to divide us and keep us fighting among ourselves so we can all starve together.

Trump has reportedly said he will cut off all federal money to New York if Mamdani wins. Asking for a friend, how much federal money goes just to Trump and Trump businesses in New York?

Here’s where we are. Here’s a link to the Declaration of Independence: www.archives.gov/founding-doc... let’s play “Count the Matches!”

Based on Trump’s statements it appears doctors have screened him for dementia several times. He believes these screenings are difficult IQ tests. His actions support suspicion of dementia. His destruction of the East Wing, his poop video, and murders in international waters.

Stupid of Netanyahu to bomb the Trump Kushner cash cow. Smart of the cash cow to buy its security for so little.

Lest we forget: “He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.” *** “For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent….”

Steve Miller’s on air glitch yesterday when he froze after saying invocation of the Insurrection Act would give Trump “plenary powers” gave away the game. The plan is to send ICE and troops into so-called “blue cities” to provoke violence so he can invoke the Act and declare martial law.

There is some internet chatter Hegseth will try to decapitate the military at his meeting next week. The goal is to make the military answerable to Trump not Congress. This is unacceptable in a democracy.

I would normally be horrified about someone releasing a video to talk about being indicted but this is pretty disciplined.

I don’t worry about the rapture. If there is any kind of test there are only about five people in the world who will be selected and we will still be stuck with all those “Jesus wants me to have a new jet” preacher types.

Trump’s pusillanimity is emboldening Putin. This will lead us to World War III. Accommodation is never useful in response to aggression unless becoming a subject is the goal.

America’s new trade policy. Put heavy tariffs on international companies to force them to return manufacturing to the US. Arrest and deport the employees of companies with factories in the US.

Moving people out of their homes to make room for AI and bitcoin server farms is strong evidence these technologies are intended to benefit only the elite few.

Russia was never a hoax The 2020 election wasn’t stolen Tariffs are a tax on you Haitians didn’t eat pets The Epstein files exist

Trump in his bottomless stupidity is allowing Netanyahu drag the U. S. into a war with Iran.

Ever notice how much time you waste dealing with automated telephone answering systems?

Artificial intelligence is intended to do to white collar employees what robotics and automation has done to blue collar workers. This is a piece of the ancient effort of the idle rich to have free labor.

Trump shows how the stupid rich get richer. A rich person can have a terrible idea and 1-1000+ people, most of whom know it’s a terrible idea, will work hard to make the stupid idea work in some way. Too many of us spend our lives nursemaiding stupid rich people.

ICE has gone rogue. It must be disbanded. Trump must be impeached, removed from office and never permitted any public position again.

The is an anemic debate whether Trump has a plan behind his tariffs. Some say U.S. trade should be rebalanced. No one says the mafia don technique is the way to do it. Without doubt he has already reduced the life savings of many Americans.

I keep hearing Republicans don’t act against Trump/Musk because of fear. If Trump ordered Congress to pass a law all personal wealth over $10 million be distributed to the poor, and a 90% income tax on all income over $200k, what would the Republican Congress do? Seems they like what he is doing.

Tariffs are a tax. They are a regressive tax placing a larger burden on everyone except the rich. They damage the general economy making the tax more burdensome. Trump has raised our taxes and cut our income. Republicans support this.

How have we come to the place where the leaders of the free world exchange clapping emojis on social media after ordering a military strike that kills people?

Cruelty is the core value of tyrants and their supporters. Scapegoating is a modern form of human sacrifice.

We should all understand that AI is designed to do to white collar workers what robotics has done to blue collar workers.

We are told we should protect our Social Security numbers, by keeping our SS cards in a safe place and not carrying them in our wallets. Can anyone assure me the DOGE bros do not have our SS numbers and have not added them to Musk’s AI program?

Trump wants to “run government like a business.” He wants to close small offices and make rural people travel long distances or apply online for services. Should government provide services to everyone or only a few is a discussion we might have. But no one has asked our opinions.

Who knew Citizens United would so accelerate the race to oligarchy? Oh I dunno, maybe philosophers, historians, readers, thinkers…anyone who gave it a moment’s thought?

Since Reagan started the Republican war on unions Republicans have been working to make America into a third world country. They support Trump, not because they fear him, but because a Russia-style kleptocracy is exactly what they want.

Shahid Bolsen makes a point about Trump’s “gold card citizenship” offer. If citizenship is a commodity to be bought and sold, why can’t ordinary citizens sell theirs for $5 mil? Maybe the government could buy it back, like companies do with stock.

Someone should tell our Congress that Trump has started trade war that will result in the dollar being replaced as the international currency of choice.

Here’s some thoughts. Buy locally to the extent you can. Use the internet to find independent providers rather than those owned by oligarchs. Make sure your local leaders are local, looking out for locals, not staring admiringly, trying to curry favor with, the oppressors.

I'd like to bring this video to your attention. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyco... It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

We should all understand the damage Trump is doing to our international friendships will never be repaired. When your friend hits you in the mouth, even if he was “just drunk.” Things are never again the same. Republicans should understand this applies to their fellow Americans as well.

What we need is a tax structure that makes it impossible for anyone to afford to buy the president for $240,000,000.

What would Congress say of Trump was cutting their pensions, firing their employees and raising their taxes? Does Congress speak for us? Apparently not. We need two, not one, two new parties and a revamped court. Trump to Roberts, “thanks again, I won’t forget.” Neither will Americans, I hope.

Why - other than graft - is the U. S. backing crypto? This is going to cost taxpayers billions and make the tech speculators in crypto even wealthier, while the average taxpayer gets nothing or just more money troubles in return.

The oligarchs are in control in many states and the federal government. They want to privatize and make money off everything. When states privatized prisons, private facilities cherry picked inmates leaving problems to now poorer state facilities. Show me where privatization improved quality.

And we have a perfect loaf.

Remember that story about Trump’s dad punching Trump in the face for not having a suit on when he came to pick him up for dinner? Were MTG’s bf and Vance trying to trigger Trump? Sure had the look of some kind of fascist show trial.

Looks like the billionaires have decided we need a king and what’s a king without a class of glittering royals? Oh and peasants, lots of peasants.

If Musk businesses collect $8,000,000 a day from the government, that’s nearly $3,000,000,000 a year, almost 1/2 the Medicaid budget right there. Ask me where I’d rather see my money spent.

All federal non-military salaries total about $270 billion. This is 4% of the federal budget and about half (1/2) of Elon Musk’s net worth. More than half (1/2) are national defense and security employees. Lose half of the non security employees you save 1% of the federal budget. Musk knows this.

Elon Musk, whose businesses receive $8,000,000 a day from the federal government, on X said people who live on federal programs are the “parasite class.” Dear Congress, please cancel all of the contracts and subsidies Musk’s businesses enjoy. Wouldn’t want him to live with such embarrassment.
