If this was a Political Leader from any other country doing this the EU would have sanctioned them and their country into oblivion. Then they would have tried to drop a bomb on their head as well. Israel does it, nothing.

Zohran Mamdani is 34 years old. YOUNG PEOPLE CAN LEAD EFFECTIVELY. You don't have to be 70 with "life experience" to do a good job.

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly. businessinsider.com/uber-coo-andre…

The government has come up with a new term to target activists who oppose data centers: anti-tech violent extremism. The US has 5,381 data centers, which is 12 times more than China’s 449. The billionaires pushing data centers we don’t need or want are the real extremists here.

Over a million acres of pristine wilderness lakes in Minnesota. The most visited canoe country in America. Generations of families have paddled it, fished it, camped it. The Senate just sold it out outright. They called it "America First." Then handed it to a Chilean billionaire — so his company can ship the copper to China. The Senate voted 50-49 to gut 20 years of Boundary Waters mining protections. Here's the deal they made. A Chilean billionaire's company digs the mine. America can't smelt the copper — we don't have the capacity. So the ore ships to China. China processes it. Sells it on the world market. Chile keeps the profits. Minnesotans don't even get the jobs. Minnesota keeps the pollution. And Americans get to buy it back from China at full market price. This same company has a documented history at their Chilean mines: pipeline spills, regulatory fines, and locals fighting back for years. They paid a former Trump Interior Secretary $380K. The protection died by one vote. Here's exactly how it happened — and who made it happen. Who do YOU think this mine actually serves? #DemsUnited

The Senate sold it to a conglomerate owned by Chileans with family and $ ties to the Pinochet regime.

Public records show in Spokane Washington Flock police mass surveillance has integrated "Pergrine AI" that can do specific searches including people searches. If it's in one Flock system, you can guess it's in most Flock systems. We have to end police state mass surveillance.

@unusual_whales Just a reminder...

Massive bombshell. Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah warns that AI will displace human labor on a catastrophic global scale. He confirms tech elites have absolutely no mechanism to share the wealth, leaving the global poor completely abandoned to suffer. He is 100% accurate.

Mason County, WV. voted +82 Trump Their reward, you ask? A new Data Center, & a backyard swamp to compliment their smokestacks. Winning!

“@SenAdamSchiff called the fund ‘the most brazen act of self-dealing corruption we’ve ever seen… We need to shut it down before he uses it to pay cop beaters, cronies, other criminals.’” Yet @SenatorHagerty @MarshaBlackburn both support Trump’s heist. semafor.com/article/05/26/…
