Get Palantir out of Australia. Seize their assets on the way out. Use the money to house the homeless and needy.
Then erase every piece of data they have on Australians.

Because we get asked a lot. The Technological Republic, in brief. 1. Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation. 2. We must rebel against the tyranny of the apps. Is the iPhone our greatest creative if not crowning achievement as a civilization? The object has changed our lives, but it may also now be limiting and constraining our sense of the possible. 3. Free email is not enough. The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public. 4. The limits of soft power, of soaring rhetoric alone, have been exposed. The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal. It requires hard power, and hard power in this century will be built on software. 5. The question is not whether A.I. weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose. Our adversaries will not pause to indulge in theatrical debates about the merits of developing technologies with critical military and national security applications. They will proceed. 6. National service should be a universal duty. We should, as a society, seriously consider moving away from an all-volunteer force and only fight the next war if everyone shares in the risk and the cost. 7. If a U.S. Marine asks for a better rifle, we should build it; and the same goes for software. We should as a country be capable of continuing a debate about the appropriateness of military action abroad while remaining unflinching in our commitment to those we have asked to step into harm’s way. 8. Public servants need not be our priests. Any business that compensated its employees in the way that the federal government compensates public servants would struggle to survive. 9. We should show far more grace towards those who have subjected themselves to public life. The eradication of any space for forgiveness—a jettisoning of any tolerance for the complexities and contradictions of the human psyche—may leave us with a cast of characters at the helm we will grow to regret. 10. The psychologization of modern politics is leading us astray. Those who look to the political arena to nourish their soul and sense of self, who rely too heavily on their internal life finding expression in people they may never meet, will be left disappointed. 11. Our society has grown too eager to hasten, and is often gleeful at, the demise of its enemies. The vanquishing of an opponent is a moment to pause, not rejoice. 12. The atomic age is ending. One age of deterrence, the atomic age, is ending, and a new era of deterrence built on A.I. is set to begin. 13. No other country in the history of the world has advanced progressive values more than this one. The United States is far from perfect. But it is easy to forget how much more opportunity exists in this country for those who are not hereditary elites than in any other nation on the planet. 14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace. Too many have forgotten or perhaps take for granted that nearly a century of some version of peace has prevailed in the world without a great power military conflict. At least three generations — billions of people and their children and now grandchildren — have never known a world war. 15. The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone. The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly theatrical commitment to Japanese pacifism will, if maintained, also threaten to shift the balance of power in Asia. 16. We should applaud those who attempt to build where the market has failed to act. The culture almost snickers at Musk’s interest in grand narrative, as if billionaires ought to simply stay in their lane of enriching themselves . . . . Any curiosity or genuine interest in the value of what he has created is essentially dismissed, or perhaps lurks from beneath a thinly veiled scorn. 17. Silicon Valley must play a role in addressing violent crime. Many politicians across the United States have essentially shrugged when it comes to violent crime, abandoning any serious efforts to address the problem or take on any risk with their constituencies or donors in coming up with solutions and experiments in what should be a desperate bid to save lives. 18. The ruthless exposure of the private lives of public figures drives far too much talent away from government service. The public arena—and the shallow and petty assaults against those who dare to do something other than enrich themselves—has become so unforgiving that the republic is left with a significant roster of ineffectual, empty vessels whose ambition one would forgive if there were any genuine belief structure lurking within. 19. The caution in public life that we unwittingly encourage is corrosive. Those who say nothing wrong often say nothing much at all. 20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite’s intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim. 21. Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. 22. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?

Australians creeping towards One Nation despite public opinion polling consistently aligning with Greens policies is why we'll never be a real country that actually cares about its people

Small businesses shouldn’t have to navigate 6,000 regulations and rules to start and stay open in NYC. Today, I signed an executive order to cut the fines and fees small businesses pay and finally deliver relief.

My beloved daughter is taking off for Israel to enlist in the IDF. Unfortunately, I will not be accompanying her to Israel, but my heart and prayers are with her and with all the wonderful recruits who are serving our nation with pride and dedication.
Wishing them all a pleasant enlistment and much success. 🇮🇱❤️

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim father of two, risked his life to disarm a murderer who was shooting down Jews celebrating Hanukkah in Sydney.
Religion must not divide our common humanity.
We must stand together and end antisemitism, Islamophobia and all hate — no exceptions.

Somalis are not garbage. Immigrants and refugees from anywhere are people like you and me. They should not be demonized. This country is built on the backs of people who have come from other places. It’s what our country is all about. 💙

We HAD education campaigns aimed at both parents & kids in the 2000s and 2010s and it WORKED.
IT WORKED VERY WELL.
An ENTIRE generation of people who learned how to protect themselves online and how to protect their kids online.
Then the govt stopped funding it.

Everything you said is wrong. We don't protect kids from drowning by banning them from pools and beaches. We teach them how to swim. We should be educating kids, not banning them!

I was literally right there when this happened.
I was in the lobby of the hotel talking to Dan Clancy about Twitch things, curlyfriesjazz who is the girl (not some random young girl like the tweet implies he’s being a creep), had just left the IRL Party and came up to us, and was on FaceTime with this guy. She was on the phone talking, and waited for a break in the conversation before she came up and just showed her phone while she was on FaceTime with this guy and all I heard her ask was for was for him to say hi to the guy on the other side and that was all.
This is misinformation, capitalizing on hate in order to make money off of you.
There’s a major difference between legitimate criticism of a platform, its policies, the way it’s run… and spreading misinformation at someone else’s expense out of greed.
If you want change, do it the right way. Not like this.

I was the single mother he let go. Collin was an awful boss and one of the worst people I’ve ever had the misfortune of working for. I am now free
Collin Rutherford@collin_ruth89
Had to let an employee go yesterday. A single mother who was a solid worker. Top 5 hardest thing I’ve ever done. Easily the worst part of business ownership.

It’s genuinely positive for our democracy that there’s another candidate in this race who believes NYC voters should pick their next mayor, not billionaires who mostly live somewhere else.
