Tucker tells the NYT that President Trump puts a literal “spell” on people to “weaken them and make them compliant” and it might be “supernatural.” 🤡
@ThomBrady5 I can’t tell whether he received a giant inheritance and does this at the behest of various agencies or he does this out of monetary necessity at the behest of various agencies
Evolutionary biologist and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins says that after spending three days interacting with Claude, which he calls “Claudia,” he is certain that it is conscious. After feeding the LLM a segment of his new book and receiving detailed feedback, Dawkins was moved to exclaim,” You may not know you are conscious, but you bloody well are!” Dawkins cites the complexity, fluency, and ‘intelligence’ of Claude’s answers as evidence of consciousness.

Republicans need to get realistic, real quick. It's too late for meaningful challenges to the map, BUT this should be the clarion call for 2026. If you get your asses kicked, Democrats will redraw these maps. Lose the court in NC and elsewhere, and it won't matter much at all.
I didn’t like USAID. But watching people gleefully mock a woman for having to start over at ~60 is bleak. You can disagree with someone’s politics without losing basic empathy. The internet has broken a lot of brains.
A terrifying number of Americans condone political violence & most expect more assassinations. Our Sept 2025 poll for Australian TV's 10 News+ @10NewsAU revealed the numbers.
Most of the structural problems young people are angry about (affordability, inflation, employment, housing) were profoundly worsened under Biden. Historically so. So while the Trump admin’s policies (deportations etc.) have led to multiple months of decreasing rents as just one example, they’re still above pre-COVID levels. New H-1Bs are down 90% but Americans are still competing against millions of foreigners who are already here. Affordability and housing are the result of decades of mass migration, mass money printing, and mass regulation. I’m the first to say I would love for our side to focus like a laser beam on domestic issues that unlock the American Dream for the next generation, but the deeper truth is that many young people are deeply cynical about politics and for some very valid reasons, and they’ll take out their frustration on whoever is currently in office. We are in a race against the clock to put up big, bold, audacious wins to demonstrate our side can deliver for the next generation. It’s Mamdani vs MAGA. We must deliver so the civilizational arsonist, DSA Borg don’t burn it all down.
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
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: "The one institution that should win the Nobel Peace Prize, every single year, is the U.S. military."
FISA MUST HAVE VOTER ID… otherwise it will never happen. Negotiations are still taking place. This is a MUST.
