This is the dark side of "move fast and break things." AI, like social media, needs guardrails, but because tech bros want to do whatever they want and have supported the political party that won't regulate them, here we are.

May his memory be a blessing to his family.

This is Convicted Felon Donald Trump's America: arresting United States citizens because of their skin color or accent. Can't wait for Karma to come for the Convicted Felon, as well as Kristi Noem.

In June, the 2 older sons of the convicted felon held an event at Trump Tower where they touted a new made-in-the-USA mobile phone with an American flag on its back, plus a new wireless service called Trump Mobile.

Long story short, there is no phone.

CASE DISMISSED! Jim Comey & Letitia James are both off the hook -- for now.

Dismissal is on interim attorney procedural grounds, not on the merits of case. DOJ can refill within 6 months, with a new prosecutor.

Interim U. S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was UNLAWFULLY APPOINTED; therefore, the cases against James Comey & Leticia James are being thrown out by a federal judge.

Halligan had NO lawful authority to present the indictments.

BOOM!

Trump thought that returning to the White House would make inflation, wars, and economic gloom vanish. He’s discovering that magic doesn’t exist and his promises evaporate faster than a tweet lost in the interstellar void.

Trump sold a dream of instant peace in 24 hours, and the only thing he managed to deliver was a show of sulking and accusations. Neither his promises nor his makeshift fake plans with Putin led to anything. He is incompetent and out of race!!!

MARGE IS CUTTING-OUT WHILE THE TIME IS RIGHT

Why should #MarjorieTaylorGreene stay in Congress to continue being attacked by Trump?

MTG had $700,000 entering Congress, and now has $25 million. She will bide her time until Trump is gone, and then come back.

They’re being forced to remain pregnant or involve unsupportive parents who belittle or shame them. Some parents have even asked to hold back pain medication for their abortions as “punishment”.

Trump keeps believing he’s brilliant while treating everyone else like fools. Ironically, the one who sees himself as an absolute master is often the most gullible. This perfectly illustrates today’s political comedy, where ego far outweighs the nation’s clarity.
