This is one of the most astonishing interviews I've ever seen in my life.
A mother/daughter duo at a South Carolina "No Kings" protest could not explain AT ALL to a reporter why either of them were protesting.
Zero clue.
Not a single coherent sentence, unbelievable to watch...

Nobody is skeptical of autonomous elevators because nobody alive today was even around to see a human elevator operator in real life before the last one got laid off. Automation is far safer.

NEW: Far-left Canadians start arguing over "Equity Cards" at the 2026 NDP Leadership Convention.
Woman 1: I was standing here with my gender equity card before you called on the previous speaker. That's my point of privilege...
Woman 2: I want everyone to be mindful that these cards for individuals like myself who identify as a black woman have no value outside of this space.
Good to see Canada arguing over the issues that matter.

@TonySeruga @LeaderJohnThune @Lurker_At_Large They edited out the end where Thune said “I’m just gonna hang out in the departure lounge until a little bit after midnight and then I’ll go get this sll resolved way before breakfast”.

Approximately 24 hours ago, immediately after posting another criticism of traitor @LeaderJohnThune, ALL OF MY POSTS had been set to limited replies. This was hours after Thune's official X account unfollowed me.
The issue was brought to my attention by @Lurker_At_Large, thank you!
I have remedied! And for the record:
REMOVE THUNE! - Republican John Thune was caught Friday morning receiving a special TSA escort at Reagan National Airport, allowing him to skip long lines as he headed out for a two-week Easter vacation amid the partial government shutdown and continued blocking of the SAVE Act.
27 votes are all that is needed to REMOVE @LeaderJohnThune!

And when this monster, now free to walk among us, pushes you in front of a train or a bus, dear reader, remember the face of the judge responsible for your death…
Andy Ngo@MrAndyNgo
The man who killed an 84-year-old Thai man in San Francisco in 2021 got his entire eight-year sentence suspended by Judge Linda Colfax. The judge considered the defendant’s “traumatic” childhood background as mitigating factors for him shoving down the elderly victim, who hit his head. ngocomment.com

@DataRepublican Gotta love how Thune showed up at the airport yesterday morning, walking straight towards Fox News to “document” that he was jetting out for vacation. Dude returned for the “vote” (or he hid somewhere after waving at the camera. Criminally deceptive.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune also booked it out of D.C., hopping a plane Friday AM at Reagan National Airport. 🎥: Fox News
English
The Senate operates under a presumption of quorum: it assumes a quorum is always present unless a senator actively challenges it by suggesting the "absence of a quorum" (which triggers a roll call to verify). It is every senator’s responsibility to be aware, to communicate, to hotline… whatever it takes… to be an active participant.
Only 5% of senators voted because only that many take their jobs seriously. They are all horrible political oligarchs.
Today should be No Oligarchs Day.

My take wasn't uninformed, I do technically have an access to a thinktank which includes significant Congress experience and Johnson's take (and mine) was their consensus opinion. They had little faith in the reconciliation process or even if the Byrd amendment would even allow them to "resurrect" ICE at that step.
And I've since received intel that not all Senators knew about the vote until it passed, which I suppose was the entire point of holding it at 3 AM.
Some things are really as scummy as they appear to be.
English
I believe there is a huge over-reaction caused by a mis-understanding about what the Senate bill did and did not do last night.

The armor was worn by François-Antoine Fauveau, who was a 23-year-old heavy cavalryman in the Napoleonic Army.
Before the war, he worked as a dairy farmer and was reportedly scheduled to get married right before his conscription.
Historians state that the young man likely had less than seven days of military training before being sent into one of the most brutal battles of the era.

@BrianEastwoodx Kinda puts a different ring to the term “half life” 😳
English
This Lone Ranger Atomic Bomb ring was distributed by Kix cereal in the late 40's, for 15 cents and a mail-in box top.
It was actually a spinthariscope containing radioactive Polonium-210 (one of the most toxic substances out there).
A child would take the toy into a pitch-black room, remove the tail cap from the 'bomb', and look through a tiny lens to see flashes of light from the Polonium-210 atoms decaying into Lead-206.

@DataRepublican @LeaderJohnThune Why does he call himself "Leader" John Thune? He needs to start leading instead of reacting.

When it comes to funding DHS, Democrats are moving the goalposts every day.
They are playing politics and using the American people as pawns. This needs to stop. We need to fund DHS.

@it_unprofession Don’t skimp on the wardrobe. Develop your wardrobe synergy with several Patagonia Nano-Air vests. Every damn color there is. You’re welcome.
English
We hired a consulting firm to tell us why our profits are down.
They sent three 24-year-olds wearing vests.
They spent two months interviewing us about our own jobs.
Then they put our answers into a PowerPoint presentation.
They charged us $250K for this privilege.
During the final readout, one of them used the phrase synergy optimization without blinking.
I looked around the conference room.
Our CEO was nodding like he just received the Ten Commandments.
The grand conclusion was that we need to increase revenue and decrease costs.
I could've told them that for a gift card to Panera.
But nobody listens to the guy who works here.
You only listen to the guy who flies in on a Tuesday.
I'm updating my resume to include synergy optimization.
It feels like the right move.

@WallStreetApes @Grok , explain chargemaster pricing, and how it cost shifts payment to the patient to the benefit of the insurance company.

American is a healthy 28 year old, he decided to skip paying for health insurance this year because the cheapest plan was $900 per month with a high deductible
He had to spend 2 nights in the ER without insurance, he breaks down the bill
“This is my receipt from spending 2 days in the hospital:
- It totaled about $24,000
- My CT scan alone was $8,300
- Laboratory, 6,000
- IV therapy, $1,020, $4,000 in total
And while $24,000 seems like a lot of money, let me show you something. This is what I'm actually paying, $2,478
because when you don't have insurance, these hospitals give you a discount. They discounted $22,000 off of this bill”
“But if I had insurance, I wouldn't have gotten that discount. So it would've been a $24,000 bill billed to my insurance, and then my insurance would've said, ‘Hey, you have a $5,000 deductible. You need to pay $5,000 for this last emergency room visit.’
Then you tack on the $900 a month that I'd be paying for that insurance. I'd be paying $20K this year for healthcare.
So the craziest part about this is even if I have another hospital visit, by the end of this year, I'm still gonna be paying less than I would if I had insurance. At minimum, my cost for healthcare this year would've been $20,000 with insurance. Right now I'm at $2,400.”
US Health Insurance is a scam

@_Investinq At what point will applicants need to submit documented interaction and history from AI?
English
The CEO of the world’s most valuable chip company just told every worker on the planet something they need to hear.
Jensen Huang, “If I were to hire a new college graduate today, and I have a choice between two, one that has no clue what AI is, and one that is an expert in using AI, I would hire the one who’s an expert in using AI.”
He specifically named accountants, lawyers, salespeople, supply chain managers, farmers, pharmacists, electricians, and carpenters, every profession, every level, no exceptions.
His logic is straightforward and hard to argue with.
The person who uses AI well will do more work, move faster, and deliver more value than the person who doesn’t, and that gap is only going to widen the longer someone waits to engage with it.
Then he drew a distinction that is worth sitting with.
He said that if your job essentially is the task meaning the task is the whole value you bring , then disruption is highly likely.
But if your job has a larger purpose and you use AI to automate the routine parts of it, you stop being just an executor and start becoming the innovator in your own industry.
Huang’s best point was also his most disarming.
If you don’t know how to use AI, you can literally ask AI how to use AI, and it will walk you through the whole thing from the beginning.
The barrier to starting has never been lower, which means the only real obstacle left is deciding to begin.
Every generation has had a moment where the rules of work shifted and most people didn’t recognize it until they were already behind.
This one is happening in plain sight, and the cost of waiting is going up every single day.

Most professionals are about to be blindsided by the biggest shift in the history of work. Jensen Huang just told you exactly how to survive it. He said the single most important thing any student or professional can do right now is learn how to interact with AI, not just use it, but master it. ChatGPT, Gemini Pro, Claude, these are not optional tools anymore, they are the new baseline competency for every field on Earth. He named law, medicine, chemistry, and biology specifically, because the message applies to every profession without exception. Prompting AI is not just typing a question into a box and hoping for an answer. Huang described it as an artistry, the skill of asking the right question in the right way to unlock genuinely useful output. Most people are terrible at asking questions, which means most people are already falling behind. Goldman Sachs estimates 300 million jobs globally are exposed to AI automation, and that exposure is accelerating faster than most institutions are prepared to handle. 89% of senior HR leaders surveyed by CNBC already believe AI will fundamentally reshape roles at their companies within the next 12 months. Huang made the competitive threat explicit, you will not necessarily lose your job to AI but you will lose it to a person who uses AI better than you do. The divide forming right now is not between the educated and uneducated , it is between those who can wield AI as a force multiplier and those who treat it as a novelty. The professionals who build this skill in 2026 will have a compounding advantage that grows every single year as AI models get more powerful. Those who wait will not just be behind, they will be structurally locked out of the opportunities that define the next decade. The blueprint is in front of you, the only variable is whether you act on it.

Announcement: Many of you may not know this, but after I was terminated from the federal government and couldn’t find work anywhere, I reached a point where I almost gave up on life. It was the lowest moment I’ve ever faced.
Everything changed in March 2025 when I met Jennica @DataRepublican. She became a constant source of support and encouragement, and she helped pull me out of a very dark place.
I owe my life my friend.

Flashback: A Palestinian mother from Gaza brought her sick son to an Israeli hospital for life-saving treatment, free of charge, from the very people she views as enemies.
In the interview (right there in the hospital), she openly says she'd rather he grow up to become a "martyr" (die in jihad/terrorism against Jews) than die from illness. She wants him healthy... so he can blow himself up in a crowded Israeli place, maybe even the same hospital that saved him.
She explains: Allah obligates every Muslim to wage jihad and embrace martyrdom. Unlike Jews and Christians who mourn dead children, Muslims rejoice when their kids are martyred in holy war, because Allah guarantees them paradise.
This isn't fringe. It's the raw ideology fueling the conflict: gratitude for mercy twisted into a desire for future violence.
Human life saved by Israelis, only to be sacrificed against them. That's the tragic, twisted reality.
