It is undeniable that we are likely to see dramatic regulatory change is post-disaster when AI labs are culpable. That's how regulation often happens. Super-interesting interview by @cwarzel.bsky.social with Zack Korman on cybersecurity and the answers lying in plain sight.

It's time to make an example out of these transphobic Democrats. Call Marcy Kaptur's office and respectfully tell her to withdraw her bigoted ad, renounce her transphobia and apologize! More details here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCAp...

I'm gonna put the blame on the party cause they fought against him when they should have worked with him and done due diligence and fully veted him. had they found this out before the primary then the party wouldn't be in this position. on the plus side at least Mills is no longer an option

Our poll also tested me head-to-head against the two leading Republicans in FL-25, and I beat them both by 9 and 12 points. Democrats can win FL-25 and the House, but only if you help us nominate strong progressives like me. Chip in below 👇 secure.actblue.com/donate/ofc_s...

Disheartening to see South Florida’s white Democratic establishment fall in line behind Rep. Wasserman-Schultz over the Black community’s objections to her carpetbagging into FL20. Our party must reckon with this white supremacist expectation for Black folks to take a back seat.

When corporate Democrats like Rep. Moskowitz behave like Republicans on Capitol Hill, they depress voter turnout. Only when people see bold, progressive policies will they go to the polls with the enthusiasm needed to win back the House. Join us to make FL-23 trend blue again.
