Oh, so now he's calling out racism in the GOP. 🙄This piece of shyt ran one of the most racist campaigns in 2024. His entire platform was anti-Black.
Don't be fooled, Ohio.

You know what else kills a lot of birds? Explosions at oil depots that cause toxic black rain to shower down from the sky.
an exhaustive, infuriating look at the labor being churned through to make AI companies rich and their models sound human. in countless ways, AI has always been propped up by human labor, lives that tech’s boy-kings are setting ablaze with glee
The incredible thing is that anyone with eyes or ears can tell that mamdani clearly loves NYC so much. The idea that he "hates America" is just so on its face ridiculous that people claiming it look particularly pathetic.
As long as you don’t need gas, groceries, affordable healthcare, retirement savings or constitutional rights, things aren’t so bad.
Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.
Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off
EXCLUSIVE: 7 months ago, Ukraine tried to sell the U.S. their battle-proven technology for downing Iranian-made drones.
The Trump administration dismissed the Ukrainians, only to reverse course last week after more-than-expected Iranian drone strikes.
I disagree with Ukraine’s decision here. They should only sell interceptor drones to America in exchange for a major aid package plus demanding Trump and Vance say thank you.
Great work by NYT showing Trump's war is the most unpopular ever. Supports my argument (see below) that in some ways the public rejection of Trump across the board is a very heartening development:
would you know that the war is unpopular — the least popular ever — if you mostly read or watched mainstream news sources? why is this information not being widely reported as context for what's happening
Waste. Fraud. Abuse. Swamp.
"Carr noted that nearly 70% of U.S. businesses outsource at least one department, including customer service and call center operations, to overseas locations. "As a result, too many Americans have struggled to resolve an issue with a representative due to cultural and language barriers," Carr said, adding foreign customer service centers "also raise concerns about protecting consumers’ personal information." Verizon said it is aware of the item and is now reviewing it. AT&T (T.N), opens new tab and T-Mobile (TMUS.O), opens new tab did not immediately comment. The FCC is seeking comments on the extent of its legal authority and applicability of rules to foreign call centers operated by communications providers regulated by the agency."
what's actually happening:
Carr is helping telecoms sell a massive wave of AI layoffs in customer service by selling it as some noble patriotic onshoring of important jobs (with light notes of racism)
notice how Reuters doesn't even mention AI, and parrots Carr's logic completely unskeptically
Carr simply does NOT do anything that inconveniences telecom monopolies, so I suspect this is about providing patriotic, faux-populist cover for telecom sector plans to engage in mass layoffs as they replace human support with AI
Illiteracy as far as the eye can see
From meme coins to our nation’s 250th Anniversary, Trump continues to enrich himself off the backs of working Americans.

AI product developers have reached the same conclusion as corporate news media leaders: from a purely capitalistic perspective, validation trumps value. It’s the siren song tempting us toward our collective demise.

Alina Habba condemns Kamala Harris’s remarks at Reggie Jackson’s funeral. (It was Jesse Jackson).
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?
I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.
He should be expelled from Congress for this and socially ostracized.
This overt bigotry from an elected official needs consequences.
Trump says he won’t sign any other bills until the SAVE Act is passed, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship with expensive documents like passports.
Reminder: noncitizen voting is already illegal and incredibly rare. This is about voter suppression, plain and simple.
Trigger laws enabled some states to ban abortion the second the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Now Virginia is considering one that would limit political spending if the Court ever overturns Citizen United. bit.ly/3OYOEOV
Andy Ogles posted ‘Muslims don’t belong in American society,’ among other statements, prompting Cair to call him an ‘anti-Muslim extremist’
Trump says US Navy sank Iran's warship off the coast of Sri Lanka because "it's more fun" to sink ships than capture them.
you rubes. you complete and utter fools. anyone with a brain can see this is a multidimensional, metaphysical conflict. a conceptual battlefield. we've only barely begun to end the start of this thing.
Y’all.
The House of Representatives just passed Donald Trump's "show your papers" voter suppression bill.
Now Trump is pressuring Senate Republicans to suspend the filibuster rule and ram it through before the midterm elections.1

Screenshot of my DOGE letter “Dr. Joseph Rezek Dear NEH Grantee, This letter provides notice that the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is terminating your federal grant (Grant Application No. FEL29509824) effective April 3, 2025, in accordance with the termination clause in your Grant Agreement. Your grant no longer effectuates the agency's needs and priorities and conditions of the Grant Agreement and is subject to termination due to several reasonable causes, as outlined in 2CFR§200.340. For instance, NEH has reasonable cause to terminate your grant in light of the fact that the NEH is repurposing its funding allocations in a new direction in furtherance of the President's agenda. The President's February 19, 2025 executive order mandates that the NEH eliminate all non-statutorily required activities and functions. See Commencing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy, E.O. 14217 (Feb. 19, 2025). Your grant's immediate termination is necessary to safeguard the interests of the federal government, including its fiscal priorities. Any objections or appeals to this termination will be managed in strict accordance with the President's Executive Orders,
Last year, this guy (left) from DOGE used ChatGPT to find NEH grants that were too “DEI” for Trump, and canceled them, including mine, as shown by the letter I received last April (right). Huge new NYT article on the back story link below
Stephen Miller is a fascist promoting a dictatorship. He's an offputting creep, too – the GOP's Dr. Evil. Republican Sen. Thom Tillis says he's a “big problem” for Trump. But that's true only if Democrats take advantage and tie Miller to Republicans in the midterms.
