Anthropic is throwing 8 figures of cash into politics to wage war against OpenAI. Just what we need - another techbroligarch buying up influence in DC.

No matter who wins the Anthropic-OpenAI war, we the people will lose.

If you saw a burning building and all the occupants were running out like their hair's on fire, would you want to go in?

Law school grads make way more in the private sector. Why would they want a job that pays less, makes you look like a Nazi, and you have to play toadie to a demented dictator?

“Time to pull off his mask so that people can see what we are dealing with here.”

“He is a con artist.”

“He has spent his entire career sticking it to the little guy — his entire career.”

Sen Marco Rubio on Trump, 2016

What's it like to go from bitter rival to bootlicking toadie in 10 years?
At the very last minute, Secretary 'Lil' Marco Rubio cancelled out on a long-planned meeting between European leaders and Ukraine. The message is obvious: the Trump Administration supports Putin and is uninterested in protecting Ukraine, or any other European ally, from attack.

Rep Thomas Massie wants us to know he is NOT suicidal.

Apparently we've reached the part of the program where sitting members of the US House of Representatives have to worry about being assassinated for pursuing a human trafficking case that the DOJ is covering up.
This is concerning, that a rep feels they must post this. A lot in our coalition has felt the same way and worried about it, but didn’t think we’d be here publicly.

Hey look!

The Distinguished Turncoat from Pennsylvania has election advice for the Democratic Party and the mainstream media wants everyone to hear it!

Weirdly, all the comments on the Newsweek post were hidden at the time I read it. All of them were very critical of Mr Fetterman.

How peculiar!
Democrats have faced an uphill battle winning American voter confidence since Donald Trump returned to office.

ICE got pretty famous for feeding children moldy worm infested food. Their cruelty actually gets worse.

On Thanksgiving, ICE marched the children in Dilley concentration camp into a gym with a table full of Thanksgiving delicacies.

Then the staff stuffed themselves and made the starving kids watch
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

DHS shot down party balloons with their fancy laser weapons, because they thought the balloons were drug cartel drones.

Oh ffs, the NYT is signal boosting Clavicular into the mainstream

For the unaware, Clavicular promotes the use of steroids, crystal meth(!) and breaking your face bones with a hammer(!!) for looksmaxxing.

And that's the nicest, sanest, stuff he's done.

What the hell happened to you, @nytimes.com?
Man, I'm really not sure this guy should be given the glossy NYT treatment? youtu.be/wprWGdfXxnQ?...

"Untruthful statements"

You mean they perjured themselves. They committed a felony to try to cover up another felony.

Even when they tell the truth, they don't tell the truth.

AOC is right on the money, pun intended.

We could have innoculated the US from fascism if we had policies that benefit and strengthen the middle class. But instead our "leaders" destroyed the middle class over decades with countless policies that only benefit the Epstein Class.
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

W. T. F.???

There appears to be something very wrong with every single person who works for ICE.
"When I asked why Valery’s treatment for self-harm seems to be exclusively a prescription for sleeping pills, ICE did not respond." Valery is a 13-year-old girl in detention.

American fascists are funding think tanks to destabilize Europe and install fascist regimes.

Fascism is a cancer, and Trump is metastasizing it.
The US regime isn't only trying to destabilise Canada via Alberta separtists, they are also trying to undermine democracy in Europe.

Canada and the EU must collectively push back to protect democracy.

These are all bad luck because of an association with death.

It's funny how he says "hypocrite" like this is news, or like Epstein is the only thing the Trump crime family is hypocritical about.

There are wide swaths of the MAGA/RW who are livid about the Trumpstein admin and Pam Bondi going to great lengths to protect pedos.

Things are getting interesting.
MAGA cultist Shane Vaughn fumes over the exposure of six people implicated in the Epstein files whose names had been redacted by the DOJ: "What you just did is you raped the Constitution as bad Epstein raped his victims."

Today I Learned that today Trump didn't quite learn what "paper mache" is.

Someone used the term in his presence, but his brain's too small to understand and his ego's too big to ask what it actually means. So he just makes it up.

Trump's "thought process" is like AI chatbot hallucinations.
Trump: It was like paper mache. You know what paper mache is? It's weak paper.

I bet next year Trump will demand that the Academy give Melania Best Picture or he sends the 82nd Airborne to Hollywood and blows up the theater with hellfire missiles.
Trump: And now Melania is a movie star! Can you believe? She did a movie. It's the hottest thing you've ever—it's crazy. You know who loves that movie? The ladies.

UK High Court rules holding a sign isn't domestic terrorism.

The attacks on Palestine supporters are insane

Just last week, Former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon decried what he called the “ideology of ‘Jewish supremacy” and admitted Yeshayahu Leibowitz was right to call it "Judeo-Nazism."
The British High Court has ruled that the UK’s ban on the anti-genocide advocacy group Palestine Action was unlawful, a decision that campaigners cheered as a major victory. Roughly 3,000 activists have been arrested on terrorism charges for “holding signs in support of Palestine Action.”
Palestine Action Defeats Ban in UK Court
Supporters of the organization are now calling for terrorism charges against anti-genocide protesters to be dismissed.
