swedish tv, being naughty

If I were president, I’d deport low-cost workers to tank the economy, fire public employees to gut services, and dismantle oversight to let chaos reign. Then I’d golf while the nation burned, demand loyalty from those I’d betray, and ask my invertebrate mirror who’s the greatest of them all.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

@economist.com It is time for an adult in the room.

I read Edmund Burke … a few times … I think all should read and see how much we’ve lost in political discourse. He warned of politics driven by ideology, not pragmatism, end in disaster. Stability isn’t sexy, but it’s what keeps societies from eating themselves alive. Read my friends, READ!

I’ve seen this cycle too many times—new tech emerges, people dismiss it, then scramble to catch up. AI isn’t coming for your job, but someone using it is. If your strategy is ‘wait and see,’ you’re already behind.

Yes

Caricature of the Portuguese centre-right Party depicting the leader of the Portuguese far-right on a leash. It is Spot on!

No other president? I can think of a few! And they stood up for America against enemies, not allies. Little Marco, let's see Trump stand up to Putin if you want to impress anyone.

The UK bet on a “special relationship” with the U.S. after Brexit—now Trump is proving there isn’t one. Isolated and struggling, it’s time to rethink the future. Europe is the answer, not outdated fantasies. #RejoinEU #BrexitReality

Ukrainians have survived Stalin’s famine, and now Putin’s war. They fight for their freedom every day. Meanwhile, Trump—born wealthy, dodged the draft, bankrupted six businesses, and once suggested injecting bleach for Covid—calls them weak. Trump doesn’t respect bravery because he’s never had any.

Trump openly undermines NATO, praises dictators, and now flirts with abandoning allies if Russia attacks. This isn’t “America First”—it’s Putin’s dream scenario. The so-called party of patriotism is cheering on a man who sides with adversaries over democracy. If that’s not betrayal, what is?

Macron disagrees with Trump over European funding for Ukraine uk.news.yahoo.com/macron-disag...

Not enough money to be free.

europe’s best shot at leverage with trump (& helping save ukraine): seize the $300 billion in frozen russian assets and transfer them 1) to rebuild ukraine 2) to buy american arms to defend ukraine. there’s nothing more america first than using russian money to pay for american defense systems.

Grok 3: AI or Just a Really Expensive Troll Farm? Elon’s latest AI, Grok 3, runs on 100,000 GPUs and guzzles more power than Miami or Zurich. All that electricity… to make Twitter bots argue better? AI is amazing. Wasting a city’s worth of energy? Not so much. #Grok3 #AI #PowerDrain #Priorities
