Not really into bragging and virtue signaling. ;-) I support all of humanity. Trump belongs in jail.
Trump is the Hitler of Oz with no clothes.

Yes, I'll think I'll trust this machine to do my research for me!
"800 cities" is definitely "thousands of cities"!
Google's AI summaries are beyond useless.
AI is good for number crunching, but using it for art, research, or writing will just cause people's brains to atrophy and turn to mush.

This is a good thing. Trump's DOJ attorneys are leaving in droves because they are being asked to defend illegal and unconstitutional orders, and they are too professional and ethical to do so. Good lawyers are going to save our country. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...
Two-thirds of the DOJ unit defending Trump policies in court have quit
The U.S. Justice Department unit charged with defending against legal challenges to signature Trump administration policies - such as restricting birthright citizenship and slashing funding to Harvard University - has lost nearly two-thirds of its staff, according to a list seen by Reuters.

They used to teach kids about PT Barnum and the Wizard of Oz, and when they got older, had them read "1984", "Animal Farm", and "Fahrenheit 451". Now everyone trusts some YouTuber in his Mom's basement more than they trust experts. This is how civilizations die.
These are con-artists. And I feel like I'm going crazy because so few people recognize them when it used to be a very common skill most people had!

Computers already exceed the powers of the brain with respect to speed and accuracy. AI attempts to mimic and then "exceed" us. Humans are capable of the most wicked, evil, deceptive, unethical, and horrible things. Why would anyone want to build a machine that will inevitably "exceed" those powers?

Oh, but he ALMOST made one last week! Doesn't that count? 🤡
I lost count, how many trade deals did Trump make this week?

So, Home Depot has been overcharging us all these years. They have enough margin to be able to absorb the tariffs. Thanks, I guess...

The home improvement chain broke from many other retailers, who say they cannot afford to absorb new tariffs. President Trump recently attacked Walmart for warning of price hikes.
Home Depot won't raise prices because of tariffs. But some items may disappear

This is a very good article by Dr. Wheeler that everyone should read before accepting the NYT's simplistic explanation.

In other words, he's just going to leave things the way they are, because he has no influence over those nations. Putin is having his way with Trump.
News Analysis: For President Trump, anytime is a good time for deal-making, but never more so than now with the leaders of China and Russia. His recent actions and statements suggest he might want an arrangement where the U.S., China and Russia each dominate their sphere of influence.

More good news!
NEWS:

Facing litigation, the Trump admin reverses itself on its purge of climate-related websites.

The restoration process is "already underway" — and expected to be "substantially complete" in "approximately two weeks."

A win for @knightcolumbia.org

This should be one of our top concerns today - there are so many people threatening judges and their families over their decisions in Trump's legal cases. This has to stop.

President Trump being an asshole and doing illegal, unconstitutional, and asshole-like things is no longer news. Let's hear more about how those executive orders are doing in court.
Breaking News: President Trump signed 3 executive orders, including one targeting “sanctuary cities” and one to support police officers accused of wrongdoing.
