PAPER PLANET: β€œWhile Trump gutted food stamps for the poor and disabled, Hegseth ran up the largest single-month bill in history… $93.4 Billion in September… $6.9 million on lobster tails… they told you there’s no money for health care, there’s plenty.”

Trump’s ridiculous & disgusting answers today on the elementary school bombing may actually cause networks to cover it like the massive story that it is instead of treating it in passing like a footnote. Deny everything, blame others, refuse to accept responsibility or apologize.

"After much deliberation, I have decided that I will not use my presence at a state ceremony to normalize Trump's lawless conduct & subversion of the Constitution.
None of this is normal, and I will not legitimize it.
Consequently, I will not be attending the State of the Union."

15,000 people singing to call on ICE to quit their jobs! Show your courage! Lay down your weapons! Leave this behind!

Singing with Brandi Carlile was awesome, but what we're really about is taking it to the streets.

To Republicans who claimed it was a Democrat conspiracy to hide Biden's lack of mental acuity, what say you about your whacky president who takes mid-meeting naps? What are you hiding?

This made me ugly cry 😭

I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another.
But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty πŸ˜”

Earlier this month, Boston Dynamics and Google Deepmind announced a partnership.

Can’t wait to see the BD robots get LLM-pilled.

If the humans don’t do from taking advice from ChatGPT, well, this’ll do it.

A Boston Dynamics does some gymnastics.

BREAKING: Rumors are swirling in DC that Bill Clinton will spill the beans on EVERYTHING he knows about Epstein & tRumpstein, leading not only to impeachment, but prosecution!!

This might be why tRumpstein is suddenly so nice to the Clintons... πŸ₯²

Buttigieg lays out the truth on Fox News, which stays speechless. Meanwhile, Trump rules and the real priorities are ignored, nobody cares about kids sports for trans children. Trump’s clown show goes on, polls pile up, but the political farce feeds on these empty distractions.
