Former Prime Minister Stephen Harper is in the Epstein files and it is incumbent on Canadians to demand an investigation into Canadians that did ‘business’ with Epstein. It is awful, it is uncomfortable, and it requires our courage to root out corruption. #cdnpoli #Canadasky

One of the biggest myths in politics is that there's a positive correlation between spending and votes. Once you've gotten enough money (not a lot) to gain recognition extra money doesn't directly lead to more votes. This is from my time working in GOTV and organizing efforts.

On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!

the current left/liberal position on ai feels a lot like the liberal position on talk radio in the mid-80s to early 90s: ignore it, it will go away, nobody pays attention to that. fast forward to 1994 and newt fucking gingrich is speaker of the house.

And I worry that there are a lot of people on the left who don't care about this problem because they hate AI. But the truth is that as this technology continues to get jammed into everything from customer service to banking to fast food orders, having built-in fair right bias is bad.
