It shows that the rules apply differently to corporations rather than individuals. I can steal from a store and go to jail for months/years. But if I own a business I might get a fine. If I kill someone as a person, I go to jail. If I own a health insurance company.... it is just doing buisness.

So the money I paid for a surgery is an estimate. I can be billed for services separately, not know certain people in the surgery are in or out of network (until after), and insurance can change their minds on what I owe months after. All legal. *grabs torch*

Keep talking about the Trump/Epstein files. It’s makes Trump incredibly livid which is bad for his health.

They are setting themselves up for a losing court battle. The woman can sue the attackers and the host of the rally. She can also sue the police for violating her civil rights and making a retaliatory arrest.

The Cornell 7 reveals a larger problem. There have been cover ups regarding sexual assults at other colleges, churches and for politicians. Not to mention, a serial killer nurse (Netflix show) that was employed by numerous hospitals. The issue is image preservation, creating an illusion of trust.

I feel like this is the same strategy El-Sayed is using in his Michigan Senate race. And this is how I feel most should be debating and campaining throughout competitive races. Some people who swapped positions (like Annie Andrews ) shows a level of distrust that should not be welcomed in congress.

Not sure how far it will go in court, but the person attacked can likely sue the police department and the organizers of the rally. I know I would.

A Trump supporter punched a protester wearing a “Release the Epstein Files” shirt in the face at Trump’s rally in Youngstown, OH. According to Mediaite, police removed the protester while the attacker stayed and “high-fived other attendees”. This is disgraceful and sums up the entire MAGA movement.

I don't think it is arrogance. I think it is desperation to stay relevant given that so many are using AI to get the solutions instead. It is highly likely that Chegg will not exist in the next few years. www.cnbc.com/2025/10/27/c...

"Democrats are on offense. They could break up full Republican control in as many as six states and win unified control in as many as seven of their own, a Washington Post analysis found."

The former govenor of Arizona, Doug Ducey stated "I would rather elect Hitler over a Democrat" while he was leaving office. And while some republican voters may dislike the move, it has been shown in the primaries that they expect loyalty to Trump. So all officials must get in line or get voted out.

This is why immunity for police or agents is broken. They need to be held accountable. This should be considered murder.

Even if it did. Those who oversee should be held accountable. From the developers, to the safety team (if it exists) all the way up to the CEO and the investors. They made it, they should be liable.

Someone on Reddit thought it would be a good idea to elect a 'more progressive candidate' even though this person was 'imperfect' and traded stocks. This type of thinking will lead progressives to be like MAGA who support the current admin. We need to be better.

We shouldn't be so focused on individual issues. Rather, we should be trying to build a framework for a better society. This will move us from short term thinking/solutions to long term, hopefully generational prosperity. I think in some ways, we are constnatly distracted from this on purpose.

In Utah, we didn't get to be involved in the decision. The Utah Democratic party chose not to field any candidates in hoping to prop up a conservative leaning candidate to oust Mike Lee. It was a long shot, but it showed potential.

It is like a job. The truth comes out when you are going to leave. Otherwise, you are at risk of losing your job if you fight back. Many Republicans warned of how bad Trump was during the 2016 primaries. Once he was elected, they all knew that they had to fall in line or voters would vote them out.

New @ms.now: The creator of the Young Republicans group chat that leaked last year is now characterizing his racist messages — in which he said “I love Hitler” and called Black people “the watermelon people” — as “stupid jokes that offended people” and lambasting the GOP for "pearl-clutching."

Creator of Young Republicans group chat calls racist texts ‘stupid jokes’
In a Substack published Thursday, Peter Giunta, who said “I love Hitler” in the chat that leaked last year, said the GOP has “become the party of pearl-clutching.”

The best way someone explained it when discussing about data centers/homes taking over farmland (which we need for food) is that we choose to treat money as an ends rather than a means. Another statement that I can't stop thinking about is that we steal from our future to prosper today.

Can you imagine a world in which the developers of large language models were extremely honest (and even *insistent*) about their limitations? And where the models themselves were trained to reward "I don't know" or "I can't do that" as appropriate responses?
