Hidden in the Republican budget bill: a provision to do away with all oversight on AI systems with rent fixing algorithms. If your rent starts to go up, Republicans are to blame.
Rent-Setting Algorithms Find Legal Lifeline
RealPage stands to benefit as the GOP tax bill seeks to bar state and local oversight of AI and automated decision systems for 10 years.

In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.

BREAKING: Trump gave a gold watch to Chinese foreign national Justin Sun, who up until he invested $75M into Trump's crypto company, the SEC was investigating him for FRAUD.

After then pouring $23M into Trump's meme coin, Sun got VIP ACCESS to Trump’s dinner last night.

Imagine if Biden did this.

Their next move to cover up their failures, from Republicans in Congress and the Trump Admin, is to try and change the way that things are measured. Watch.

“This is a total perversion of U.S. foreign policy practiced by every president since World War I. My fellow Americans, we are in completely uncharted waters, led by a president, who — well, I cannot believe he is a Russian agent, but he sure plays one on TV.​“

The real story after the tariffs are imposed is to watch who Trump gives waivers to, and what they did to get them.

So while announcing the tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, WH press secretary Karoline Leavitt claimed it was necessary to stop the distribution of fentanyl, which she said has "killed tens of millions of Americans."

The number of overall drug overdose deaths -- not just fentanyl -- was 101,000.

Vets who gave so much are still serving America with honor. The Felon is the king of dishonor.

MAGA: We want all the immigrants deported & eggs to be cheaper! America first!

Trump: Actually, we’re gonna hire immigrants for all the tech jobs & it’s too hard to make groceries cheaper, but we are gonna take over Greenland & Canada to help Putin!

MAGA: Works for me!!!

I thought you should know that in 2024 New Jersey, Minnesota, Illinois, California, and Maryland have all enacted legislation that bans book bans & censorship in both, school and public libraries, and protects librarians.
