i think this is a very clear limitation of schumer's convivial caucus management style, only using honey is good when you need to get someone to vote for something, but it is not nearly as as effective as getting someone to not doing somethig

Don’t give the democrats another time and vote against them in every primary if they vote for this. Time to clean the Augean stables of these crusty horse apples.

Yes, of course we don’t allocate jobs among humans based on relative need, god knows, but all humans do share a fundamental requirement of “needing to purchase food and shelter to stay alive,” whereas all LLMs/Gen AI tools as a category do not face this hard imperative.

This looks like a concentration camp.
Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

Democrats are actively refusing to treat Trump’s military campaign against American cities as a crisis, because they’re in thrall to a bunch of idiot pollsters who tell them to only ever react to Trump across a tiny range of kitchen-table issues. The Democratic Party is a huge part of the problem.
One of the biggest things Dems overlooked is how many of the "DoSomethings" that religiously attack Dems despite Republicans being 100% in control (because those same creators blamed Dems for Republicans in the courts keeping Trump out of jail) got famous BECAUSE of Trump's 1st term.
