First & foremost, I want to know why Bone-saw bin Salman didn't NOT wear a suit to the white house - HOW RUDE!

And secondly, why to trump's female lawyers look like they came out of porn movies but the intellectual capabilities of rocks - my apologies to rocks of the world!

It's hard for me to believe that Gluesencamp Perez was so wildly principled. It feels more like an excuse to attack the Left, and have a double standard. I think Nancy Pelosi was trying to do something similar near me, letting (well known human weasel and over the top zionist) Scott Wiener know early that she was resigning. It didn't work because a decent sounding progressive had already decided to primary her anyway. Anyone who wanted could have primaried Chuy Garcia.

What he did is probably a bit unethical. But I don't think it's the crime of the century, and I doubt it justified a formal house vote to censure him, and I doubt Gluesencamp Perez' motives are pure.

Nitpicky feedback but the sentence “nobody but his chief of staff in time for candidates to register” was so confusing. I had to google what the heck Garcia did to understand that the issue was that he tried to game the election so only his aide would be in the running. But yes- wtf that’s so messed up and I’m so pissed that Casar and the rest of the progressive wing are caring more about loyalty than standing up for Democracy. Especially shitty since Democracy is already under extreme attack in Texas and we should be able to count on progressives to defend it tooth and nail. Politicians are so exhausting!

I'm not sure why anyone is celebrating this near unanimous "victory" to release the epstein files. They aren't going to be released. Never by this regime. They are saying they have an ongoing investigation that will prevent release of some of the files (the ones with trump's name on them, surely). The Republicans caved because they know those files won't be released and they wanted to look like they're not protecting pedophiles. This is a victory for maga Republicans, not democrats.

Do you want AI to continue unregulated? I don’t. There are some new moves in the US to exempt AI from regulation, and some things we can do about it:

The shit about the Dems I wish surprised me—their decay is wholly moral too and it’s one of the reasons that ppl cynically say that there’s no difference between the parties. Just disappointing they can’t see the long game STILL🙄

I can't believe you are so wedded to common (wrong) assumptions that you miss entire swaths of the current developments.

The top Democrats are not stupid people (well, within some boundaries anyway). They went to Yale and Harvard and etc. and they know how to add up 11 and 17 and get the correct answer. Stop trying to excuse your inability to understand what is going on by calling them dumb and granting them "mistakes". Whatever they are doing, it is because they WANT it. And the inescapable conclusion is that they do not want to win. They are comfortable with losing. Ask yourself why, explore the reasons, but give them the benefit of the doubt. THEY WANT TO LOSE!.

Second stop the drooling over Trump's embrace of release of the Epstein files. He may be borderline dementia but he understands what is happening a lot better than you do. He has ten or fifteen thousand soldiers and all kinds of maritime armaments pooling around Venezuela and he knows that a wartime president is not going to have to face petty objections to the age of his female cohorts. Look at Netanyahu for the model. He knows that as soon as the Epstein files are released, Venezuela is sitting there like a ripe plum.
