@DCinvestor Is it brain slop or a purposeful way to let the Iranians know that Trump doesn't think they are important? Don't know.

@hamedinsf I think most people would actually not want SD weather day in day out once they had it. It's too hot. What makes SF so walkable is actually largely the cool, fresh weather.

In every way, Trump signaled he was filtering for weak people who would say yes to him.
Everyone on his team was hired through this filter and they all know that saying yes to him is their one true job.
David Pyne 🇺🇸@AmericaFirstCon
I defended Secretary of War Pete Hegseth from all of his scandals right up until the invasion of Iran. He was America First and reportedly counseled Trump against starting a war with Iran a year ago. Since that time he has gone full neocon warmonger and prayed publicly that God would help us kill the Iranian people. I am ashamed I ever supported him.

Blue states are what primarily fund this country and red states are, by a large margin, the primary recipients of government aide.
Yet, here we are.
Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApes
Stephen Miller says there is not a single verification system in place in Democrat states to receive federal benefits Elon Musk and DOGE tried to warn us…. He says Blue states operate “ENTIRELY ON THE HONOR SYSTEM” He says this is how Democrats put illegals on our benefits “I think what's important for Americans to understand about how pervasive and widespread the fraud is — I think that most citizens probably assume that there's some verification process that takes place for the receipt of most federal benefits. The reality is, is that there is not, this is particularly true in blue states, willfully, true in blue states, in which all of these programs are operated entirely on the honor system” “No verification takes place before individuals are enrolled in or receive these benefits. So as a simple example, if you're a Somali refugee living in Minnesota, you could lie about how many children you have. You could lie about what your immigration status is. You could lie about your marital status. You could lie about child care, you could lie about disability, you could lie about all these things and many more. And nobody in the state of Minnesota would validate any of these facts before writing you a check”

This is not mindless hate after there has been a wave of violence against US targets from Muslim actors both domestically and abroad.
@NYCMayor is expertly dogwhistling his support of Islamism, under the guise of 'tolerance'
This encourages further Islamic-ideology motivated violence and attacks.
Wake up @SenSchumer - this is not about hatred towards a peaceful religion. This is about protecting American values from an political ideology that wants to co-opt our institutions
English
This is mindless hate. Muslim Americans are cops, doctors, nurses, teachers, bankers, bricklayers, mothers, fathers, neighbors, mayors, and more.
Islamophobic hate like this is fundamentally un-American and we must confront and overcome it whenever it rears its ugly head.

@ErikVoorhees The right is so full of shit on this.
I've always supported gun ownership but got a front row seat to right wing hypocrisy when Alex Pretti was murdered on video only to then see his murder justified bc he was carrying.
I call bullshit on your so called principles.
English
It is curious that those on the left—the alleged advocates of democracy—are not the more ardent supporters of gun ownership and the Second Amendment.
The pro-social, pro-civilizational purpose of guns is, after all, equality.
Guns' most distinct virtue is not the ability to go hunting on the weekends, nor even for use in home defense. Rather, their most distinct virtue is in the egalitarian expression of power, arguably *the* foundational prerequisite for democracy.
Tyranny or fascism of any kind is most difficult among a well-armed populace. This point is indisputable.
Thus, any group that advocates highly centralized, hierarchical power, should oppose broad gun ownership.
And any group that advocates highly decentralized, democratic power, should so sanctify it.
What are we to make of the modern Left, then? Where is their advocacy of egalitarianism on the very policy which most enables it?

@TrustlessState Have you actually followed Newsom's politics or are you going off of CT headlines? He's business savvy, pragmatic, and has experience leading. If you haven't seen that then you may just be scanning the click bait.
English
Whichever party moves to the Center will win the General Election
A GOP choice of Rubio over Vance represents this shift
The Dems need a not-insane Left-of-Center candidate
Newsom ain’t it…

Solana co-founder using the exact same rhetoric that has been used to justify targeting civilians under the pretext that "bad guys are using human shield"
Imagine trusting someone so desensitized and ideologically partisan to lead the neutral financial revolution of tomorrow

@NoRegrets_333 @mayazi When neighbors are despots, the moral culpability of all the negative outcomes fall on the despot.

Everything you are seeing in the headlines right now is due to incompetent leadership. Everything is a scandal and everything can be leveraged to pin Americans against each other.
This is not real leadership. This is incitement and control.

There aren’t enough young people to pay for the old. If we don’t get massive productivity improvements the standard of living will drop dramatically. It will drop the most for the poorest regardless of the size of the welfare state.
Think Soviet world war 2 veterans with medals begging on the street in the 90s. Despite the global economy growing like crazy. Despite 1990 being USSRs highest gdp year.

I'm actually pretty open-minded about the anti-data-center populism. From everything I've seen from people working on this, reducing industrial-scale hardware availability seems to be both the most practical, and most non-dystopian / non-invasive way to lengthen AGI timelines. So if the movement that makes that happen starts out with anti-data-center populism, that seems fine? Of course you have to do things other than going after data centers located in populated areas to really make a dent on AGI timelines (my intuition is that 10-100x compute reduction is feasible in a "static" model of the world, and 100-10000x if you compare to a counterfactual that includes future chip design progress; those numbers *would* make a dent), but there is a first step for everything.

Today we are announcing that Step Finance, SolanaFloor, and Remora Markets will be winding down all operations.
Following the hack at the end of January we explored every possible path forward, including financing and acquisition opportunities.
Unfortunately, we were unable to secure a viable outcome and have made the difficult decision to end all operations effective immediately.
We are working on a buyback for STEP holders based on a snapshot prior to the incident, and a redemption process for Remora rToken holders. Remora tokens remain backed 1:1.
We are deeply grateful to our community for the support over the years and are confident that this is the best outcome given the circumstances. We want to thank our millions of customers over the years for joining us on this journey.
More details will be shared soon

@connan_james I'm sorry to hear that, 30 years is a long time and we should be beyond this as western societies. Sadly, it just pushes everyone further and further into their own bubbles.

Just got cancelled by another two friends today (who I have known for 30 years) because at the pub having a beer - I said "I like Trump"
Nothing else, that's all I said
I didn't get into an argument

@Tirothegreat @coinbureau That's where my mind goes, banks are in the business of money and will tolerate a lot, but they will not tolerate substantial risk.

@coinbureau I don't want to get political, but isn't this the same as closing down Russia's US bank accounts because they invaded Ukraine.

🚨JPMORGAN ADMITS: WE CLOSED TRUMP’S ACCOUNTS
JPMorgan confirmed in court it shut down Donald Trump’s private and commercial bank accounts in February 2021 after Capitol attacks.
The admission comes in Trump’s $5B lawsuit, where he claims the move was politically motivated.

@martypartymusic When you're rich but your money is so foul even JP Morgan Chase wants nothing to do with it.
English
JPMorgan Chase has now publicly acknowledged for the first time in court filings that it closed more than 50 bank accounts tied to President Donald Trump, his family, and various Trump Organization businesses (including hotels, housing developments, and retail operations in states like Illinois, Florida, and New York) in February 2021. This occurred about a month after the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack and shortly after Trump's first term ended.

@coinbureau Purpose is simple: leverage the US economy for the president to curry favors and enrich himself.

🇺🇸US TRADE REPRESENTATIVE OUTLINES PURPOSE OF TARIFFS
Tariffs have proven to be an effective tool to:
1) Negotiate trade deals
2) Reshore critical industries
3) Attract billions in new investments on U.S. soil
