Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

One thing I really think needs to be hammered into “libertarians” & other right wing freaks is the cost of helping other people is almost always less than the cost of not helping them. Because we live in a society & we are all connected & you are SO MUCH CLOSER to being sick and poor than you think!

Two years ago I interviewed a 31-year-old NY state assemblymember about a 7-year-old girl killed by an SUV driver in his district. I hung up the phone, astonished that I'd talked to a legislator who so thoughtfully articulated what actually needs to change on our streets. He'll make a great mayor

I think win or lose the lesson from tonight’s nyc mayoral race is that the Democratic establishment are openly contemptuous of anyone that actually believes a better world is possible, will fight tooth and nail to stop anyone who does, and must be ousted before we can even hope to fight back.

Democrats are racking their brains trying to find the "Joe Rogan of the left" while doing everything they can to defeat people like Zohran Mamdani and AOC, who actually possess the skills they're so desperately looking for.

This is incredibly funny but, also, I hope everyone who is pro AI or a teacher that allows AI can see clear as day that the ultimate goal is to put the thumb on the scale of all of this shit. That's why they're forcing it on us. It's a joke.

I can't believe it needs to be said, least of all to a Labour Government, but we should be tougher on genocide than peaceful protest against genocide.

Mr. Mamdani do you recognize Skyrim's right to exist as a Nord state? Mr. Mamdani do you condemn the Forsworn? Mr. Mamdani will you honor the right of the Altmer, as the chosen race, to maintain their post-White-Gold Concordat territorial integrity?

If random men in masks claiming to be ICE agents try to grab me, and they’re not really ICE, I have the legal right to defend myself against them, yes? And if they are ICE, I don’t? So how am I supposed to tell the difference? I’m supposed to give my masked kidnappers the benefit of the doubt??

When Trump finally dies there will be calls for civility and “respect for the office” from even his harshest critics and I’m telling you right now I plan on saying things so harsh they might knock the earth off its axis

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.
