Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.

Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

Gov Phil Scott is quite vulnerable. Two polls released in past week indicate Scott is in trouble, even though the Vermont Public poll shows a 10 point lead. 1) Scott's support was consistent in both polls. For a historically popular governor, support below 50% should raise flags.

I hope Phil Scott eats shit. He's wasting millions of public dollars fighting his own employees on an RTO order that his administration admitted provides no clear benefit, and actually decreases efficiency. But it sure helped line his campaign donor's pockets, I can tell you that much!

Red Guy is almost out of the panel. He leans in and says “Enjoy getting left behind, pal”
Yellow Guy replies “ok”

Panel 3:
Yellow Guy stands alone.

Panel 4:
Close up on Yellow Guy, there is a quiet “huff-huff-huff” noise coming from behind him

Panel 5:
Yellow Guy turns to look behind him

Panel 6:
Close up on Yellow Guy’s face as if from the point of view of an attacker.
Yellow Guy yells “Jesus Christ”

Panel 7:
AI Red Guy is now chasing the Yellow Guy.
Red Guy: “Use me”
Yellow Guy “No”

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

This is a very good point and the thing to understand is that’s not what’s happening on either side. The republicans are identifying all the people they want to target for degradation and a repeal of their civil rights. The democrats are giving a list of who they’re okay to do that to.

Key thing to understand about "remigration" is that it doesn't mean "send immigrants home." He's an immigrant, Peter Thiel is an immigrant, etc. It's not even a white nationalism project, it's a trans-Atlantic white continentalism project, nations themselves aren't important, only race matters.

From the Preface of Ray Madoff's The Second Estate

A bar graph labeled Federal Budget expenses and revenue (2024) with three bars

Govt spending ($6.75 trillion)
Tax revenue ($4.92 trillion)
Deficit ($1.83 trillion)

Next to it is a bar chart labeled Wealth of the Rich. There is a bar labeled Wealth of the Top 1%. It is $47.6 trillion, nearly ten times the size of the tax revenue bar.

This chart is titled Federal Burger versus wealth of the rich (2024) and the source is the US Treasury and St Louis Reserve

To those who want to ban transgender people from sports (or bathrooms or whatever else): think about it for 2 seconds. How would you like to enforce that? Do you want enforcers to be checking people's genitals? Children who want to play a sport must be inspected by some adult? This *protects* women?
