I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.

Palantir for Hospitals Palantir for Hospitals is powering nurse scheduling, nurse staffing, transfer center optimization, discharge management, and other critical workflows for over 15% of the U.S. healthcare system.

There are hospitals/health systems that have contracts with Palantir, which also contracts with ICE - this is a major ethical conflict and risk to patient data.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

Exclusive: U.S. dismissed Ukraine deal for anti-Iran drone tech last year Snubbing Ukraine's offer ranks as one of the U.S.'s biggest tactical miscalculations before the war, officials say.

Unbelievable and all too believable. We are led by incompetent, narrow-minded idiots, and so many people pay a high price for that. Sometimes a price as high as their lives.

Under RFK Jr., the federal government is taking aim at not just fluoridated water but also fluoride supplements.

While Trump launches us into a new forever war, he’s quietly preparing to take over our elections at home and rig the midterms in his favor.

He knows he can’t win on the merits, so he’s preparing to cheat. We won’t let him get away with it.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Russia has been sharing satellite imagery of U.S. warships and aircraft with Iran, helping Tehran target American forces.

Ukraine, in contrast, has deployed specialists and low-cost drone interceptors to help protect the U.S. and its allies.

Russia = our enemy πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί
Ukraine = our ally πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

It's because they FUCKING STOLE OUR BOOKS AND OUR WRITING!!!! There IS no AI. There's humans who were the victims of theft!! What idiots you are.

If you find something that looks like my writing in Claude, here's a good reason: it's on the legal record that Anthropic stole every fucking book I've ever written. That's not the AI's writing. It's mine.

The NYT knows this, by the way. This is pro-AI propaganda and they fucking know it.

Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Why?

Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.

For Mahmoud Khalll, this past year has been marked by profound hardship-and by profound courage.
A year ago, Mahmoud was walking home through our city after sharing an iftar with his wife Noor when he was detained by federal agents, flown to Louisiana, and then held in an ICE facility for months. In that time, he was forced to miss the birth of his first child. All of this for exercising his First Amendment rights in protesting the ongoing genocide in Palestine.
And yet, even in the face of that cruelty, there has also been beauty. New Yorkers raising their voices in solidarity. A city refusing to look away. Mahmoud won his freedom, and a father was finally reunited with his child.
Last night, as we marked the one year anniversary of his detention, Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmoud, Noor, and their son Deen to Gracie Mansion to break our fast together.
Mahmoud is a New Yorker, and he belongs in New York City.
