ChatGPT has more than 800mn regular users, but just 5% of those are paying subscribers”

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Vance, miserable liar that he is, referred to these bigoted, Nazi-flavored Young Republican posts as a "college group chat."

But most of the quoted in the Politico article are GROWN ADULTS with JOBS.

My local Indivisible group is calling for flags for #NoKings it's probably a good move, but MAGA spent so many years defecating on it that it feels tainted.

We need to reclaim our colors.

The future of the Republican Party is as reprehensible as the current party.

From: REICH-WING WATCH

LEAKED CHATS FROM LEADERS OF YOUNG REPUBLICAN GROUPS EXPOSE RACIST, ANTISEMITIC, PRO-HITLER VIEWS AND ADVOCACY FOR KILLING POLITICAL OPPONENTS.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I am sad that Time Magazine would put him on the front cover and do an article that falsely shows him as a leader. He is none of that. It was Bidens "deal" and Trump killed it and now trots it out. It won't last. And meanwhile Trump is killing innocent people in boats.
