TRUMP VOTER: “Trump is a bald-faced liar. That's all I can say nicely… I was planning to retire, and I went back to work just to cover my insurance, my gas, and the price of food that keeps going up.”

If for no other reason, vote against every Republican in November because they never stop blaming Biden, and now Obama, for all their fuck ups. They never take responsibility for anything.👇

So instead of Republicans passing legislation to regulate AI, Trump signed an EO that allows tech companies to police themselves. I’m with Rep Lieu (D-CA) Republicans need to get their asses back to DC to pass a law that has #GuardrailsForAI this is absurd.
