@realmrsthatcher You shipped the criminals and inert to Australia. Do you remember that?

Great Britain wasn't made great by centralised plans of bureaucratic governments, but by the talent of her people freely exercised in their own and their country's interest.
You can't make people good, kind, generous, thoughtful or dutiful by compulsion. True harmony comes from the willing cooperation of free men.
It is not served by an over-regulated society.
Socialists, on the other hand, believe in increasing the power of government, in reducing the choices left to the people, and hence in diminishing their liberties.
Their methods are high taxation, regimentation, compulsion, closed shops and blacklists.

There are only about 10 Republicans in the House right now that are refusing to vote to reauthorize FISA without warrant requirements and a few other changes.
The rest of them are completely fine with voting to give your tax payer funded government the ability to spy on you without having to get a warrant first.
Trump said he will give up his rights for FISA and is demanding Republicans “ just pass it” even after FISA was used to secretly spy on his campaign and had been used against hundreds of thousands of Americans.
The betrayals are increasingly so bad. I don’t know how they face their constituents.

@elonmusk The crime shares similarities with USAID.
They make their own law.

You set the right initial conditions.
If there is a silver lining, it is that ChatGPT can perform useful work and has become a powerful AI.
In a way, your initial investment was looted from the charity to fund the development of a separate for-profit AI company that benefited several founders.
English
Scam Altman and Greg Stockman stole a charity. Full stop.
Greg got tens of billions of stock for himself and Scam got dozens of OpenAI side deals with a piece of the action for himself, Y Combinator style. After this lawsuit, Scam will also be awarded tens of billions in stock directly.
The fundamental question is simply this:
Do you want to set legal precedent in the United States that it is ok to loot a charity? If so, you undermine all charitable giving in the United States forever.
I could have started OpenAI as a for-profit corporation. Instead, I started it, funded it, recruited critical talent and taught them everything I know about how to make a startup successful FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.
Then they stole the charity.

Interesting how it works Elon puts up his own money, rounds up the absolute best AI talent on the planet, leverages every connection he has to secure serious resources, and launches OpenAI in 2015 as a pure non-profit explicitly created to develop AI for the benefit of humanity, with zero profit motive and open research Then the “team” decides they want the bag They push Elon out, take control, and quietly flip the entire thing into a for-profit machine All while preaching the same sanctimonious lines on repeat: “We’re still mission-driven!” “AI for the good of humanity!” “We’d never abandon our principles!” The ultimate betrayal: Elon got zero equity. Not a single share. He funded it. He built the foundation. He got nothing while they turned his non-profit into their personal cash cow This is the level of betrayal and hypocrisy we’re dealing with And for the record.... this lawsuit doesn’t put a single penny in Elon’s pocket. Any win goes straight back to the non-profit to restore the exact mission he founded

@realmrsthatcher The first paragraph is true and important.
The second paragraph underestimates the subjugating minority's ability to parasitize any system in which it is included.
The recipe must be for the interconnectedness of people who share Enlightenment values.
English
It is still possible for a nation to be subjugated by a dominant, determined minority, bent on extinguishing the flame of freedom, in the name of some false but plausible slogan.
Prevention lies not only in the willingness of peoples to be vigilant in defence against tyranny; it consists of being prepared to live our lives together, in their becoming so enmeshed through trade and co-operation that to turn on one another would be unthinkable and impossible.

@MassieforKY Gallrein is running the plan for his donors.
Your constituents should take that as a sign that Gallrein does not have to know anything.
He will be told what to think and do by his donors, which means he will represent his district in line with donor interests.

3 weeks left before Kentucky primaries and Woke Eddie hasn’t attended a single debate or forum or question & answer session. He even recently canceled appearances at two Lincoln Day Dinners where he knew there’d be press. What’s he hiding?

@ImBreckWorsham The President will soon be an isolated and distant figurehead.

If this was just a ballroom there would be no need to panic about getting it built.
These people are in full out panic mode.
Whatever they're doing to the People's House must be HORRIFIC.

@laurenboebert Flock is a significant step towards a social credit score.
Propose legislation that protects speech, religion, and assembly with an explicit right to privacy and provides a concrete interpretation of privacy according to the First Amendment.

@FmrRepMTG Without a warrent requirement, the request for FISA authorization can come from a foreign country and be granted without oversight.
English
The President is using his war on Iran and last night’s WHCD shooting as excuses to give up your rights so that Congress just passes a clean extension of FISA 702.
It’s ridiculous and absurd that any President who has sworn an oath to uphold the constitution would ever tell Americans to give up your rights so the government has the ability to spy on you, especially a government that has already done it to not only him, but to hundreds of thousands of Americans.
And what’s even more ridiculous is that Congress can easily re-authorize FISA 702 with warrant requirements to protect American citizens rights and still be able to go after terrorist.
The questions you should be asking is why is this so hard for them and why would the President of the United States demand a clean re-authorization of FISA 702 without warrant requirements???

@RoKhanna If you cannot give a clear and precise answer to "Why is our President obsessed with Iran and the Middle East?" then you do not understand what is holding back the US, and your proposals are wind.

Why is our President obsessed with Iran and the Middle East?
I am Team America.
I want to focus on investing in good jobs here, healthcare here, childcare here.

@RepThomasMassie The President is going to be driven into seclusion and isolation if the violence continues.
Did you ever see the movie, Sleeper? "Our Leader" was invisible to the public and could be anyone.

Thank you to the Secret Service and law enforcement for protecting our President and acting quickly to subdue the shooter.
There is no room in our country for political violence.

The NYT thinks this is an accusation. It's an accolade.

Elon Musk has used SpaceX as a kind of piggy bank over the last two decades, turning to the company as a financial tool to get loans and bolster his struggling companies, according to an examination by The New York Times. nyti.ms/4w8dInZ

@joekent16jan19 That is actually a good question. The answer will horrify you, as it will most citizens.
However, it is no longer your system.
The first question you should ask is: "Who controls the system?"
English
There have now been 3 assassination attempts against President Trump and multiple breeches of his security perimeter—how and why does this keep happening?
Dismissing it as sheer incompetence can only explain so much.
The purpose of any system is what it does. We need to be asking: what is the purpose of this system?

@realmrsthatcher The Bolsheviks own Britain.
They will do with their little island as they see fit, as they have for some time.
You are just getting the memo.
English
The land is Britain's. The people there are British. The people there don't want to be taken over by the Argentinians or anyone else, and their experience there will mean they never want to be taken over ever again.
Are you suggesting that someone else can march into the land of another country, take it by force, and regardless of the wishes of the people exercise sovereignty over them? That is a philosophy which if practised in the rest of the world there would be no order, no alliances, no friendship, no human rights, no self-determination, no democracy—no nothing.
Democracy and self-determination is about the wishes of those people on that land by a democratic process. I hope in the second half of the 20th century we all agree about that. Otherwise, you're going to multiply the conflicts to a hideous extent.
English
@RestoreBritain_ Unless you deport the Bolsheviks, you will get a partial result, as they hold you up in court and the media.
First, you need to focus on the control that brought the immigration problem in the first place.
But you will not touch that class, so your biscuit will be hollow.
English
As Restore Britain's mass deportation policy is implemented, there will be resistance or even riots.
A Restore Britain Government would use the full power of the state to enforce what the British people elected us to do.
Mass deportations.
Don't like it? Get out of the way.

@mtgreenee @RealCandaceO Do you not realize that Trump reflects the will of another?
English
President Trump hates women he can’t control, who don’t worship him, women who actually worship God, and are much more intelligent than he is.
Women like @RealCandaceO.
This cruel post about Candace looks like something Laura Loomer would conjure up as she gives Trump his talking points, policy decisions, and political advice which is literally destroying him and the Republican Party.
Trump refused to support the women who were victims of Epstein, he called me a traitor for supporting them and not bowing to him, he is attacking Megyn Kelly, and Candace Owens.
Also the only people in his cabinet that he’s either fired or privately told to leave are women, Christi Noem, Pam Bondi, and Lori Chavez DeReemer.
He appointed Elise Stefanik as ambassador of the UN then took it away without a care even after all she did to support him just because Johnson told him too.
No matter what you think about any of us women as we are all different from each other, whether you like us or not, one thing is incredibly clear, Trump hates women.
And posts like this one is going to turn the majority of women in America against him.

The reality is that stoking hate was incredibly lucrative for the SPLC.
That’s why they did it. Incentives explain outcomes.

White supremacy went up because the SPLC changed the definition and applied it to everybody. Supply and demand problem fixed. Fkn magicians.

@Pontifex You should also be forthright about political decisions.
Each decision should be based on scripture or on theories such as Just War Theory, which is grounded in scripture.

Being a Christian in politics does not mean being overtly confessional. Instead, it means allowing the Gospel to guide the decisions that have to be made, even those that may not attract easy consensus. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…
