The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

So a wondrous new technology (or more accurately, a kleptomatic bullshit generator) that does the writing for you is not remotely helpful. Nobody asked for it. What would be more helpful would be if the big publishing companies paid us more and weren't so predatory or inscrutable in their practices.

The MSM is involved in a massive cover up
On rare occasions something like the poop jet video or Trump Tower Gaza will get picked up a bit, but it's... a choice... to mostly treat it as not even newsworthy that his "Truth" feed is now a constant flood of full-blown manic psychosis.

DOGE was always a very thinly disguised con to dress up data theft and extraction class destruction of federal corporate oversight as innovative, and it's important to remember that part of the reason it worked so well is that the press helped legitimize it

“After having extensive conversations with ChatGPT about his depression and suicidal ideation, ChatGPT still provided Joshua with information on how to purchase and use a gun, according to the court complaint reviewed by USA TODAY.”
He told ChatGPT he was suicidal. It helped with his plan, family says.
