Cool 🙄. Since SCOTUS destroyed any real impact the FTC once had, this is at best a dog and pony show, but more accurately a market manipulation effort.

The probe reflects a focus by Trump administration officials on using existing laws to tame artificial intelligence safety risks.

My dude. 300 data center moratoriums today. Legislation pending in DE, MD, MI, MN, NH, NJ, OK, PA, SC, SD, VT, VA, WI. Wouldn't encouraging the legislative body to listen to their constituents and regulate be the thing to do? We'll flag this as another sign of the AI bubble about to burst.

I'd laugh at this nonsense of I didn't have a feeling it was precursor to a government bailout when the AI bubble bursts and "Super Intelligence," aka over-leveraged billionaire investments are suddenly too big, er.. too smart, to fail.

100% but must be done within a framework. That was my point. I'm for direct healthcare for all Americans, like other democracies, so left of M4A, but I also believe in legislation and oversight.

Darrell Long @floopjack.com · 28/09/2026

LOL. Libertarians amirite. 🤣 The super top secret answer is: there is no mechanism for such nonsense. But also, "rolling our own healthcare" would be far more disastrous than working to affect change within the frameworks we have. See also Telecommunications Act of 1996.

Congress is currently 100% thrilled that Higher Ed is in a full on financial crisis that's closing a multitude of schools nationwide. So no. That wouldn't move them.

061

Darrell Long @floopjack.com · 16/09/2026

No. That's absolutely the worst approach. Higher Ed is already in a VERY significant crisis. Do something like this and you bankrupt even more schools for something that is absolutely not within their purview.

Darrell Long @floopjack.com · 16/09/2026

He could have a 360 contract, guaranteeing many revenue streams for promotion, management, merchandise, sponsorships, etc. That would complicate things. Not saying he didn't have some leverage but his management and legal may have advised him to do what he did. Or he has juice and did nothing.

“He had more guts and balls than you!” Sen. Elissa Slotkin just RIPPED INTO Hegseth for refusing to say whether Trump conveyed an order to shoot protesters—an order Trump's previous SecDef had the courage to reject. Leadership is saying NO to tyranny. Not saluting it.
