The president of the United States is a mentally deranged con man and a pathological liar.

Time for Dems to play hardball and replace McConnell. He certainly would have done so

Why isn’t anyone talking about the severe mental illness that’s driving these rants claiming he won? He’s not delusional. He knows he lost —and yet he’s compelled to proclaim he didn’t. He gives away his derangement and debases himself every.damn.time. Full goose crazy.

Not just insider trading —they are advertising and selling insider trading. Gawd I hope the Dems are keeping track of the crimes.

Agreed. The whitewashing of the enormous harm he did is intolerable. Not to mention how totally he abased himself for adjacency to power… just stop. Speak the truth—the whole truth.

You know that standard to not speak ill of the dead? This moment calls for an exception. Such craven abandonment of personal and professional values needs public recognition.

America has gotten to that last part of Monopoly where the game is effectively over and we're all just watching the Elites suck up all the money, nobody else is allowed to really keep playing the game & we're all getting more pissed by the minute. Flip the damn board over already.

the way it works is that if i say, "i'm a black american," sam alito thinks that is "dividing people up by race." but if someone says, "get that jigaboo out of my country," alito thinks, "looks like nothing to me"

Not just lobbying! our new paper maps 27 mechanisms of regulatory capture used by Big AI + 11 narrative framings that rationalise capture. “Big AI’s Regulatory Capture: Mapping Industry Interference and Government Complicity” will be presented at #FAccT2026 next month arxiv.org/abs/2605.068... 1/
Title: Big AI’s Regulatory Capture: Mapping Industry Interference and Government Complicity

abstract: Over the past decade, the AI industry has come to exert an unprecedented economic, political and societal power and influence. The well-functioning of regulatory and oversight structures and processes that govern the industry thus have paramount ramifications for everything from fostering public trust in systems marketed as AI, the credibility of scientific knowledge, educational and healthcare services and products, information ecosystems, the environment, rule of law and integrity of democratic process. In this paper, we first develop a taxonomy of mechanisms enabling capture to provide a comprehensive understanding of the problem. Grounded in design science research (DSR) methodologies and extensive scoping review of existing literature and media reports, our taxonomy of capture consists of 27 mechanisms across five categories. We then develop an annotation template incorporating our taxonomy, and manually annotate and analyse 100 news articles. The purpose behind this analysis is twofold: validate our taxonomy and provide a novel quantification of capture mechanisms and dominant narratives. Our analysis identifies 249 instances of capture mechanisms, often co-occurring with narratives that rationalise such capture. We find that the most recurring categories of mechanisms are Discourse & Epistemic Influence, concerning narrative framing, and Elusion of law, related to violations and contentious interpretations of antitrust, privacy, copyright and labour laws. We further find that Regulation stifles innovation, Red tape and National Interest are the most frequently invoked narratives used to rationalise capture. We emphasize the extent and breadth of regulatory capture by coalescing forces — Big AI and governments — as something policy makers and the public ought to treat as an emergency.

I don't give a damn that he's cross dressing. I care that self-righteous, anti-LGBT, "family values" former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has a huge skeleton in her closet that was likely blackmail material for foreign countries. And I care that she has tormented people and will now ask for grace.

Welp- today is the day. Wish us luck, within a few weeks we will be the first pediatric specialty hospital in the state and are paving the way for other organizations to provide exceptional care and get reimbursed accordingly. Medicaid cuts are making life a living hell, but this- this is a win.

This is our country. Donald Trump doesn't own America. He doesn't own the White House. Everything he does relies on our money. We depend on Congress to represent our interests. They are failing us by allowing him to exploit our money for his personal interests. He & his party of sycophants must go.
