really bad writers. maybe he used ai to scan for dialog from war and scifi movies and got the 1950's b rolls?

exactly. ⬆️
what he and his buddies are doing to society and anything civilized with this rhetoric is abominable.

seems cheap.
(welcome to marketing where everyone is a profile target and the more you play, the more you pay or get paid, depending)

how much "work product" has become the 'success' metric. how many downloads? how many sales? how many ____? 'more is better' is pervasive. quality, creativity, perspective, originality, craftsmanship ... meh.... -> they don't get it. that's what we're supposed to be learning.

he's defending which country?

Pentagon Sends Marine Expeditionary Unit to Middle East The Pentagon is moving a Marine expeditionary unit to the Middle East, as Iran steps up its attacks on the Strait of Hormuz, according to two U.S. officials. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approve...

According to FT, France and Italy have opened talks with Tehran seeking to negotiate a deal to guarantee safe passage for their ships through the Strait of Hormuz citing people briefed on the efforts.

keep goin'
the mystique of success and the trappings of money...
where at one time, more people valued knowledge, personal achievements, and so many other things, now more people value the allure of more money and the illusions of power it gives. sadly, "having enough" isn't enough anymore.

this is not something that anyone in his position should ever say.

So as transit goes, the position of this administration is that the Strait of Hormuz is safe and the New York Subway is not?

ICE’s $50,000 signing bonus, reduced training requirements from 13 weeks to 6, and the admission of recruits under looser standards, including some found to have disqualifying criminal histories or gang affiliations, are not implementation failures. They are the point. As former ICE instructor Ryan Schwank testified before Congress, “no matter how badly a cadet does at those practical exams, no matter how many mistakes they make, no matter how egregiously they violate the law during a practical, we graduate them.” They are not trying to hire the best. They are trying to hire whoever is willing. Source: https://donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-secret-police-playbook

A key strategy in secret police formation is to create a parallel career pyramid alongside more professional existing forces (like the military and FBI). This is the purpose ICE/CBP serves. Pour money and relax standards in that pyramid. This is what the Trump admin has been doing.

We study pandemics, and the resurgence of measles is a grim sign of what’s coming Controlling the spread of many infections, including measles, depends on trust in public health, which is eroding.

Measles was declared eliminated in the U.S. in 2000.

Now it’s been circulating for more than a year, with cases reported in 30 states in 2026.

Pandemic researchers say the resurgence is a warning sign — and a big reminder to #GetVaccinated.

send him a boxed set of the '90's JAG tv series and tell him he can pretend he is the admiral and he can get a ride on a real ship. he'll double fund whatever is needed and i'm sure that would be an amazing ride.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:
