We went from a country that defended others from being invaded for their natural resources, to a country that is now threatening to invade others for their natural resources.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

It's not the public's fault that marketing has shoved dozens of different technologies that have nothing to do with each other under the umbrella of "AI."

Blame that on the marketers and the techbro hype. They've poisoned the well and you can't explain to every single individual the differences.

The DC shooter wasn't the last shooter in America.
The next ones only need choose their gun, & we will all keep doing this. The broken people who either don't care or enjoy the carnage are winning this social issue.

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

My periodic reminder that Sarah Palin (quite correctly) called for Rahm Emmanuel to be fired when he used the "R" word.

And my periodic reminder that maybe a political reporter wants to ask her what should happen when Trump uses it.

Like any reporter.

1/X Everyone and anyone is expendable.

There is something suspiciously covert about the shooting of two members of the West Virginia National Guard in Washington, D.C., that should not be easily dismissed as a false conspiracy theory.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Melania Trump didn't qualify for an EB-1 visa and was paid for modeling in the U.S. in 1996 while on a tourist visa, which doesn't allow employment. Working on this visa is fraud and also disqualifies her. She also lied about work history on her immigration application,which is NATURALIZATION FRAUD.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.
