Open-source, AI & tech history 🌐 | Loud about democracy & #ALLCAPS 🏒 | Probably talking about the future of the web
Trump’s AI videos are getting weirder by the day. Half of them are racist attacks on his opponents, the other half are some bizarre healthcare tech fantasies he thinks he’s gonna get rich off of. Feels less like politics and more like watching a scammer lose his mind in real time.

The Hatch Act. 📚
Passed in 1939 to crack down on corruption, it stops government officials from turning public institutions into campaign machines. Taxpayer-funded agencies are supposed to serve everyone — not push a party line.

I can’t believe how far we’ve fallen as a country—corruption, incompetence, and shameless grifting at the highest levels. This isn’t leadership; it’s a disgrace. We deserve better.

As a party, we are prisoners being held hostage by people who simply refuse to accept that their time has passed and won’t accept that others more capable right now. Stay in the Senate, but step down from leadership. It’s time for a new approach, a new face, & a new voice.

Trump’s organization is out here selling Trump 2028 hats like the Constitution is just a suggestion.

Reminder: The 22nd Amendment exists. You can’t run for a third term.

Hegseth is either too dense to understand basic OPSEC or just doesn’t care. He’s leaked classified info multiple times over Signal like it’s WhatsApp. This isn’t just careless—it’s dangerously stupid. How is someone this reckless anywhere near national security?

Chris Van Hollen has pointed out that because El Salvador is a member of the ICC, not allowing Abrego Garcia access to legal representation is a violation, and places ES dictator, Bukele, in possible legal jeopardy, as well as possible legal sanctions.

In just three months in office, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has produced a run of chaos that is unmatched in the Pentagon's recent history. His inner circle — military veterans who, like him, had little experience running large, complex organizations — is in shambles.

Very brave of Pete Hegseth to go on Fox & Friends to discuss his latest controversy. Another hard hitting interview.

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

Our leaders are losing $3,000 in handbags and leaking attack plans in group chats—this isn’t just embarrassing, it’s dangerous. How are we supposed to trust people this reckless with national security? Total clown show at the top.
