One final chef’s kiss here is that Rubio’s parents were not US citizens when he was born in Miami. He is a citizen by birthright, a constitutional provision the Trump administration has worked hard to undermine.

Basically AI allows software engineers to produce shitty code *faster* and in higher volumes which increases the amount time spent on code reviews and revisions nullifying the productivity gained from producing the code in the first place.

It’s really remarkable to me that 10 years into this people feel compelled to “clarify” Trump’s homicidal and often genocidal fantasies. It is deranged for the president to daydream about American cities in states he hates getting blown up. Full stop.

The President of the United States, in front of a crowd of his supporters, during a televised rally, admits to a Quid Pro Quo pardon, which is a felony and impeachable offence. And absolutely nothing will happen, because his party, which controls congress, are fascist collaborators and sycophants.

Tonight is my first of four debates with Senator Susan Collins. Eight years ago today, she voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. He went on to help overturn Roe v. Wade—and she still says she doesn’t regret her vote. I’m fired up and ready to hold her accountable.
