Americans are starting to genuinely loathe AI—and they would rather have a prison in their community than a data center. And since Republicans are the party of  AI and data centers? Taking away their power to let AI run rampant seems like something we can all agree on.

A mistake is when you wear one navy blue sock and one black sock. He wants to be head attorney for the United States and he did crimes and/or he's confessing his incompetence. Either way, he should be investigated, disbarred and prosecuted. Not confirmed as AG.
