It’s easy to comprehend what robotaxis stand for: an effort by the richest people on earth to eliminate employees & other human friction that might get in the way of profit or interrupt their efforts to cozy up to Trump. Robotaxis can also just be really fucking annoying. These aren’t unrelated.

It sounds more like this is the work of McKinsey, the geniuses who told Warner Bros-Discovery to merge and HBO Max to separate, then told Warner Bros-Discovery to break up and HBO Max to merge, and got paid something like $165 mil for the whole clusterfuck.

PADILLA: "If this is how this admin responds to a senator with a question, if this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, cooks, day laborers in California and the rest of the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

These guys are young, & we've all done stupid things at this age. They may not understand what they do in the military will follow them the rest of their lives, & when they take that oath, they stand on the shoulders of ppl who served & sacrificed like my dad, whose plane was shot down over France.

Hegseth is ridiculous. Only the US would put a drunk TV presenter in charge of the military. Bluster is all he’s got
