It doesn’t matter that they held out for two weeks. It ultimately only matters that they caved. It’s another sad day for democracy.
Liz Oyer@lawyeroyer.com · 2d agoDespite the show John Cornyn and Thom Tillis have put on over the last two weeks, they caved today on their demands that DOJ kill the corrupt settlement with Donald Trump, and it looks like Blanche will be confirmed after all. A very disappointing development. youtube.com/shorts/h1FWi...
Can’t believe Trump puts it all in his financial disclosures! I think he gets off on flaunting his crimes. “This is called “normalcy bias”: the idea that if a situation is truly dangerous, if massive crimes are being committed in plain sight, someone will intervene and stop them.” - Sarah Kendzior
I dug into Trump’s financial disclosures. He’s making millions off data centers.

This should scare us all. The AI leaders are trying to entangle their operations with those of the world’s governments to ensure their own relevance and revenue, and evade accountability. And DJT is facilitating it by offering them a seat at the table.
Why are AI CEOs being treated like the Presidents of major countries?

This is disgraceful. Trump admin cares only about the revenue generated for themselves by the war in Iran and from their backer Elon.

I am listening to the book right now on the CloudLibrary app, but so often the author has written something that stops me in my tracks and I wish I could re-read the sentence or paragraph to fully comprehend. So I’m getting the print version.

“Foreigners ask me why American citizens are not out in the streets protesting around the clock, like people did in Hong Kong and South Korea. The answer is that protest is more of a financial risk than a political one, and financial risks form the backbone of modern American terror. 1/3

I oppose the closing of the National Archives facility in Chicago. The lack of transparency surrounding this decision has only deepened the loss it would represent for researchers, historians, dedicated employees, and our community. I urge the National Archives to reconsider this decision.

The headlines today were about Dr. Fauci, but Trump’s intent to expand his control of government & country in ways the Constitution sought to prevent & explicitly prohibited should be the biggest story. Read the analysis here: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
The fact that for 20+ years our national discourse has normalized naming judges as R appointees or D appointees should have been a huge red flag that our system was not healthy. Regardless of our political views, shouldn’t the rule of law be a common framework that unites and protects us all?
Ffs. These AI companies are so self-centered, they want to be the only ones to have this rare content. And they don’t give a crap about the original physical manuscript, aka human heritage.
