I’m no expert, but this is spot on and mirrors what we’ve been saying.
Trump has dementia and is visibly declining. The rambling, the speed, the confusion, the fixation, the sundowning. It’s happening before our eyes.

I know people think Musk only bought Twitter to help the rise of fascism.
While that’s important, I still think it’s secondary to his primary goal, which was to own the place where his fans praise him.
With AI, Musk’s use of the platform for love and validation is only getting more transparent.

Brennan points out the laptop story was a Russian influence operation, not that it was fabricated by Russia. The letter itself literally says “we do not know if the emails… are genuine.” The accuser repeatedly puts different words in Brennan’s mouth and then attacks the fabricated claim.

The world's 10 richest people (nearly all from the U.S.) are collectively $500 billion richer this year thanks to growth in stocks tied to AI.
Meanwhile, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and electricity.
AI is making the rich even richer while everyone else pays the price.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.
