David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 10hAmerica.gov has been fixed so that it will no longer tell you that Joe Biden won both the popular and the Electoral College vote in the 2020 election. Great! So our Super-Duper Artificial Intelligences are really designed to spew propaganda! Wow, that's really awesome!! Oh, and the algorithms used 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 22hAnd what if Senator Schmitt had actually gotten it right? What if Jack Smith had gone to an NBA game in Atlanta? What would that prove? Well, Fani Willis lives in Fulton County, so OBVIOUSLY Smith went to Atlanta to meet secretly with Fani Willis so that the two of them could plot Trump's demise. 200
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 30/09/2026So the best hypothesis I've been able to come up with as to why the tech giants would spend SOOOOO much money for AI data centers is that they were all counting on big, juicy government contracts. But there is NO such contract that would ever bring in the revenue they need. It's a bubble. 010
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Questions to try on your favorite AI query tool, and also on America.gov: Which is the most effective method for stimulating the u.s. economy: tax cuts for the super rich; or cash benefits for the working poor? What percent of low income MEDICAID recipients are committing fraud? How many cases of 110
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Trump saying that "in the end we all die anyway, so it doesn't matter" is pure nihilism. The entire GOP has become a party of nihilists. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It was pretty telling to see Senator Kennedy offer to hold up one side of Senator Schmidt's "Gotcha!" poster during yesterday's Jack Smith hearing. The GOP senators really are team players, aren't they? They vote in unison, they lie in unison, and they display their absolute idiocy in unison. 011
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The Reflecting Pool is no longer a pool. It no longer reflects the DC skies. It only reflects the incompetence of Trump and his sychophantic allies. It's the perfect symbol of an empty, arrogant fool. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Project 2025 is predicated on the idea that government should be run "like a business," meaning for a profit. Uh, no. The purpose of a business is to return value to its shareholders. The presumption is that by doing so it will necessarily serve the needs of its customers and of society. 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Just a reminder: The GOP isn't just "going along" with Trump. They're cheering him on. When Trump pardoned the criminals who had been convicted for their actions on January 6th 2021, conservatives yelled "Yay!! He freed the HOSTAGES!!" When they had the chance to stop the Iran war (6 times in 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It seems to me that if Trump signs an Executive Order promised on a claim of "national emergency" the courts have an obligation to RUSH any lawsuits against it through the system. After all, if there really is a national emergency it shouldn't take the administration long to document it and to 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Here's what i want: No stupid wars in the Mideast Support Ukraine Apologize to all of our former allies for Trump's insults and beg to get back in their good graces Undo Trump's stupid tariffs No AI bots replacing human workers Massive surge to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Dr. Oz is now saying that the Trumpies are going to cancel health insurance for one million+ people because they've NEVER MADE A CLAIM! That is certainly one of the stupidest ideas any of the Trumpies have yet dreamed up. Imagine applying a similar policy to home fire insurance, which is 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Suddenly a number of GOP candidates are calling for an end to the Iran war-- because the price of gas is too high. Let me think now... was there ANYTHING that a party in control of BOTH houses of Congress AND of the White House could have done to stop this stupid war earlier? 🤔 Uh, nope-- can't 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 21/09/2026AOC has said the AI industry's attitude is "heads we win, tails you lose." She is SOOOOO right! The AI bubble is about to burst. Some have likened it to the 2008 financial crisis, but I think it's more like the Dot Com bubble. Both were built on pure hype. That's the ONE thing the software 110
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The reason why the Trumpies continue to blame Biden for everything is because they think he's directing a secret cabal of puppeteers from within the bowels of the Deep State. That's how supremely stupid they are. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 20/09/2026@marcelias.bsky.social of Democracy Docket fame recently asked if he is TOO worried. NO Marc, you have every reason to be worried! And NO ONE has done more than you to fight back against Project 2025/Trump/SCOTUS. You are a true national hero. The Trumpies will try anything to stay in power. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 20/09/2026What i find most astounding about Trump 2.0 is that everyone seems to think that each Executive Order Trump signs has the force of law. As far as i am concerned every one of Trump's EOs should have been challenged as soon as the ink was dry-- and the courts should have expedited the challenge. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 20/09/2026It seems to me that the best way to bring the Epstein class to a thunderous end would be to catch some of them in the act. Apparently some ICE facilities are being used for trafficking tourism. Time for a stakeout. 011
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The American people can't get what they want from the federal government. Why? Because the GOP has inherent advantages: The House is heavily skewed toward low population states The Senate represents states rather than people The Electoral College amplifies both imbalances And the GOP is very 101

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 19/09/2026When Trump is finished with his purge of WH reporters the only people left will be from NewsMax, OANN, and Fox Entertainment. He may as well answer only softballs tossed to him by Natalie Harp. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Reagan promised his tax cut would pay for itself with an absolute tsunami of new tax revenue. Didn't happen. Clinton turned a trillion dollar surplus over to his successor, Bush II, and Bush immediately pushed tax cuts through Congress that wiped out the surplus. And later he said that his tax cuts 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The collapse of Ed Sheeran's tour seems like a turning point moment-- one that may result in something as momentous as the anti-Aparthied movement. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Will AI run amok and destroy civilization? Let's suppose the AI industry agrees to some variation of Asimov's 3 laws. If properly implemented, that would prevent AI powered agents or robots from doing actual harm to humans. BUT-- it WON'T prevent malicious human actors from subverting the 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 15/09/2026For those wondering if AI technology could be abused-- look no further than how some police officers have abused Flock cameras to spy on their exes. Let's stop pretending that civility will prevail in the use of AI and start planning for the worst. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I asked Google's AI enabled query engine "What would be the best way to reduce inequality in the American economy?"

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I just typed the following into Google's AI enabled query: What would be the best way to reduce polarization in American politics?

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 13/09/2026It's really rich to hear the Trumpies scold Ukraine for not agreeing to cede land to Russia. They're too stupid to realize that Putin will never abide by any agreement he signs. He regards Ukraine as part of Russia and will never give up trying to absorb it. He's as untrustworthy as Trump. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 13/09/20262008 financial crisis-- Wall Street said "uh, I guess that didn't work," referring to derivatives and subprime home loans. {Shrug.} Trump's 2017 tax cut bill that was supposed to induce businesses to build new plants and hire ZILLIONS of workers-- Trump blamed its failure to deliver on Obama. 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 13/09/2026SCOTUS set the table for the Civil War with the Dred Scott decision, which killed the Missouri Compromise. The election of Lincoln in 1860 proved to slave states that they wouldn't be able to maintain their hold on the Senate-- so 7 of them seceded before Lincoln was inaugurated. After the war 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 12/09/2026The nation and the world are facing major threats on 4 fronts: Climate change: the oil & gas giants are doing everything they can to prevent renewable energy sources from gaining a foothold. Trump is helping-- that's why they contribute to the GOP. AI: tech giants are doing everything they can to 110
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Trump is making good money off his oil and gas investments. Hmmm... I wonder if those investments are making him so lackadaisical about bringing his Iranian "excursion" to an end... 🤔 Nah. No American president could be THAT blatantly corrupt, right? Right? 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Trump's political strategy is the same as his business strategy: promise the Moon, deliver nothing, and blame everyone else for his failure. And a whole lot of people fall for it every time. 000
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 08/09/2026After Trump's 2016 win I tried to understand where all that MAGA anger was coming from. It was anger about immigrants stealing our jobs, and abortion, and the war on Christmas, and the trade deficit, and NATO stealing from us, and Obama's tan suit... The economy in 2016 was actually pretty good in 111
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Trump diplomacy: Russia/Ukraine-- Ukraine must pledge to NEVER join NATO and must withdraw from territories claimed by Russia U.S./NATO-- they're all a bunch of freeloaders who never did anything to help the U.S. Gaza-- it'll make a wonderful Trump resort once all the Palestinians have been 101
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Hmmm... why do the terms for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine as proposed by Kushner and Witkoff sound like terms that Putin would have dictated to them? Could it be that they don't care about Ukraine AT ALL??? 021
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 06/09/2026We're always told that the GOP is the party of LAW & ORDER!!! But the fact is that conservatives love crime-- so long as it is other conservatives who are doing the crime, or so long as conservatives get their take. 1400+ criminals convicted for their actions on January 6th 2021 pardoned on Day 1 111
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 05/09/2026So I'm hearing screaming from right wing commentators that the Democrats are planning to take away YOUR private medical insurance.

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Apparently we're supposed to believe that anything Israel is doing in Gaza is just self defense.

The Israelis have done a good job of 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 04/09/2026How should Democrats conduct themselves during the midterm campaigns? They're often accused (rightly) of bringing a knife to a gun fight. I think many are scarred by the success the GOP has had in portraying them as socialists, or communists, or woke, or just plain weak. This sort of 1/4 100
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Trump is running the government by Executive Order, and the GOP loves it. They want a powerful president who isn't tied down by the obstacles of law, the Constitution, or Congress. That's why they raised no objections when Trump unilaterally raised tariffs, or swiped funds allocated by 1/3 123
David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 01/09/2026The president swears an oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 30/08/2026I'm thinking someone should be compiling a list of questions we need answered-- once there's some chance of accountability for the Trumpies.

David S.

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Tariffs are a Trump thing, but much of what the Trump administration is doing is more of a Project 2025 thing.

David S. Moore @dsm1132.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Trump started a war in Iran with no clear objective and he has no idea how to end it.
