This is shocking (but not surprising). I expect we'll soon see the Trump family investing in open weight LLM companies www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

whoa -- Max Miller on CNN threatens Sen. Bernie Moreno with "exposing a deeply and personal embarrassing matter" after Moreno called for his resignation
'When you find yourself in a hole the first thing to do is stop digging'
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 18h agoMax Miller: When I was reported for child abuse, for my daughter, for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days, and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan
Stop worrying about 2028, if we don't show up and VOTE them out in November, it won't matter.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
Cornyn and Tillis joining ranks with Cassidy for the most duplicitous liars in the Senate. It won't be long before Blanche's predictable misdeeds compels them to claim surprise and disappointment. These people just lie to our faces

The next time a climate change denier comes at you with that excuse:
So if I paid an exec at Google or Exxon a monthly fee for access to private information and traded on it before it became public I'd go to jail, right? And at a minimum the exec selling the info would lose their job, right?
Still can’t over the fact that the president of the United States just told an entire state to pound sand after getting cyberattacked by a foreign adversary because they didn’t vote for him and it was treated like a Tuesday lol
The man endorsed by Sarah Huckabeast in this video is Arkansas state Rep. Austin McCollum. McCollum was arrested today on charges of aggravated assault against a family or household member, first-degree false imprisonment, and third-degree domestic battery. www.nwaonline.com/news/2026/au...
This is insanity and must be stopped. Instead of donations to teachers for supplies, or worse yet having the teachers buy the supplies, just start firing school administrators and city council members until there's enough money for the schools. Make it a law. I'll bet the money will reappear
Mrs. S Teach CT@mrssteachct.bsky.social · 4d agoThe pencil fairy stopped by my list! So excited to be stocked up! Thank you to each and every donor who believes in my students. It makes such a difference to have the supplies we need to start the school year right! #KindnessMatters
BIG SUPRISE. TRUMP changed his mind again. He has decided Ukraine will not get the licence for interceptor missiles from the USA. Trump has made another backroom deal with Putin again. His word means nothing. He cannot be trusted. He fully supports Russia and not Ukraine. BIG SUPRISE.
Trump bans bots and inverters from China. So no bipeds and quad bots but also no robot vacuum cleaners or robot mowers either. Also inverters are needed for almost every piece of tech including solar. Brilliant 1/
Anyone who now joins CBS news is not a reporter. They're a propagandist
Builder of Spine one call at a time!!@oldfraildems.bsky.social · 6d agoThe new face of the Bari “DAVID CUNT ELLISON”Weiss!! “CUNT BROADCASTING trump STATE NEWS” After months of firings and resignations, "60 Minutes" is finally staffing up. On Tuesday, executive producer Nick Bilton announced a slate of new correspondents joining the once-iconic news program.
The election of Trump 47 marked the end of the US being able to compete in the global economy. Should the Dems take the WH and Congress in 2028 we'll have no choice but to plead with China for help in building a non-fossil energy supply. By then they will also lead in chips, AI and fusion
Casey Ryan@mundaetraversa.bsky.social · 6d agoUnnecessary death and violence that will just drive the world toward the end of fossil energy faster. Whether the US gets with the program depends on its own choices, but this regime is already covered in blood regardless.
We are watching, in real time, the biggest fuck-up by any president in the history of the United States of America.
My 43 years experience in education affirms this is largely true: “Homeschooling is trickle-down stupidity.” - Jennifer Welch
With the Dems vs DSA war raging in the party there has never been greater risk that many people will flex their purity tests giving it all goes to MAGA. The primaries were the time to make that choice. November is blue no matter who. It's our last chance
