There was a moment when the US was taken over by enemies and criminals, the incompetent, the corrupt, and the malevolent. They control our government now and will use every means at their disposal, legal and illegal, to try to stop the rest of us from restoring law, order, and decency to US society.

An AI emergency hotline with Beijing is useful but preventing the emergency in the first place is essential. AI can threaten our financial system, critical infrastructure, biological security, and even nuclear command and control. Those risks belong at the center of all future U.S.-China talks.

Eric Schmitt is on The Charlie Kirk Show (yes it's still called that) -- and believe it or not, hosts are pretending he owned Smith with his embarrassingly botched gotcha "You caught him in this NBA game too in Atlanta" "Yeah," Schmitt says There's no mention that Schmitt had all his facts wrong

(1) The thing about the Jack Smith show trial as I'm hearing it in real time is in an ironic twist of fate, the Republican lie machine is unintentionally revealing the truth as it pertains to both parties. First,Trump was Wag the Dog and the MAGAts the foot soldiers puppeteered by the Epstein Class

thank you america.gov your answers are strong and powerful and i have tears in my eye
how many president have been impeached multiple times and why
One U.S. president has been impeached more than once: Donald J. Trump (2019 and 2021). The Senate acquitted him both times.

First impeachment (2019)
House charged abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
Senate acquitted in 2020.
Second impeachment (2021)
House charged incitement of insurrection related to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Senate acquitted in 2021 (trial after his term ended).
Andrew Johnson (1868) and Bill Clinton (1998) were each impeached once; both were acquitted. Richard Nixon was not impeached; he resigned in 1974.

The IPCC confirms that changing dietary patterns is essential to achieving net zero and limiting global warming to 2°C. According to AR6, relying on fossil fuel cuts and CDR is not enough to hit climate targets. Most climate channels ignore this because humans need to be violent to feel alive?

Global food system emissions could preclude achieving the 1.5° and 2°C climate change targets
Concerted efforts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from food production are necessary to limit increases in global temperature.
