Mark Kelly lost any potential vote from me today saying on morning joe that we gotta talk to AI companies for enhanced unemployment. WTF is that? How about we regulate AI and avoid massive unemployment in the first place? Don't run for POTUS if you're already in their pockets.

Sanders: But there is another vision out there as well—a darker vision. It is a vision which says that we must give up on democracy, that we are too stupid and inept to govern ourselves, and that we must put more and more power into the hands of one man.

Over 140M viewers watched Bad Bunny turn the Super Bowl into a global celebration. While TPUSA’s "anti-woke" show faced technical failures, the star delivered a masterclass with Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, sharing a vital message: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love."

The suggestion that Kristi Noem, a white woman, is the "delicate, beautiful, tiny" victim after a Latino man is physically dragged out of a room fits into the admin's pretext of criminality it attaches to people who are not white. Like Rep. LaMonica McIver.

The Civil Rights Division “persecuted” police departments throughout its long history, precisely *because* they were violating civil rights laws. I’m not sure if Harmeet Dhillon is completely ignorant of that history or just a shameless liar, but this is idiotic. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/u...
“Now, over 100 attorneys decided that they’d rather not do what their job requires them to do, and I think that’s fine,” Harmeet K. Dhillon, the new head of the division, said in an interview with the conservative commentator Glenn Beck over the weekend, welcoming the turnover and making plain the division’s priorities.

“We don’t want people in the federal government who feel like it’s their pet project to go persecute” police departments, she said. “The job here is to enforce the federal civil rights laws, not woke ideology.”
