We knew Trump was a snake before we voted him in is the lesson people should get the poem.

On this issue it's unnecessary because everyone knows it's not true.

It's the best argument for Paxton at this point.

We don't need an export ban. We need to take the unearned excess profits for the exporters, and use that money to help reduce the effects to consumers depending on imports.

We have a lack of abundance problem for diesel fuel for them to tackle.

One thing I like about moving to CA is the voter information guide and sample ballot. In other states I've lived in its been hard to know what will be on will on the ballot before you vote. You sometimes are asked to vote on a ballot question you see for the first time in the voting booth.

have enough conscious people already. We need computers to do what humans do poorly. Different people reason differently. That’s good because different approaches are better on different problems. To use AI effectively, you have to be aware that it sometimes gives wrong and take that into...

FWIW, I asked AI about why some strategies aren't used by it to make it better. Part of the answer was that it isn't sentient, and would not know how to employ them even though a human would. I think people get hung up too much having consciousness. We don't need machines to be consciousness. We...

Acknowledging that some form of law enforcement is needed to deal with crime is not a concession to cops.

My interpretation of Revelations is the anti-Christ (Trump) will try to take control. He will have the mark of the beast (devil red color MAGA hat). His followers will get the same mark. A time of tribulations (climate change and extreme weather) has begun. Bearing his mark ends in the lake of fire.

I have wondered if I am just a chemical machine. I cannot figure why I am not, but what raises the most doubt is pain. You can make a machine simulate being in pain. But deliberately causing a machine to simulate being in pain is not a moral crime. While torturing a human being is because pain hurts

Are you really sure that they could stop the merger? If you can't win a fight, it makes sense to get what you can get. Why aren't you angry at the states states that made no effort to stop the merger? The states that sued could have chosen not to participate in the settlement.

This is surprising honesty for a MAGA politician to reveal what he actually thinks.

Fox News has a long-term interest in not allowing Presidents to ban news outlets for unfair coverage.

Mainstream media should be embarrassed they didn't break the story.

He looks like he's wearing lipstick. Wearing makeup is not something masculine men do. This applies to Trump too.

Preserving the environment reduces production in the short term. That causes Communist managers who are responsible for production to oppose environmental concerns. In democracy, the government requires companies not to pollute. Companies have to comply against their will.

I actually agree with Dr Oz on this. The Trump administration is the best example of it.

I'm OK with that. Reporters can report on the situation in the Trump straight. Give Trump the credit for what's going on there.

I may be wrong, but I think the US was party to an armistice. Isn't the US still at war with North Korea?

He brought needed attention to insurance companies denials of valid claims, so he didn't throw away his life for absolutely nothing. I am not saying what he did was ok.

The South has a history of having bathrooms for men, women and colored. The date 1965 was chosen, because Yankees had made that illegal.

Right!!! People today are diagnosed as having autism spectrum disorder, not autism as the term was used in the past. RFK Jr does not have even a minimal understanding of what he is talking about.
