These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

The original version of the book said that Epstein was involved in introducing Melania to her beloved husband.

Not totally but certainly could do it without any major announcements and only some paperwork

Everything IS bigger in Texas, it seems. Hey Pete Hegseth, have at em.

Like, I want a V for Vendetta where everyone goes outside wearing inflatable frog suits.

Keep thinking about those speeches to the senior military leadership and the campaign's use of the drill instructor footage from "Full Metal Jacket" during the campaign—and recalled R. Lee Ermey, who played the character and was, in fact, a drill instructor himself, blasted the character.

The subhed here is a master class in corporate journalism rewarding malfeasance via semantics

Bondi didn't valiantly fend something off, she refused to answer legitimate questions before Congress because the answers would be horrifying and politically inconvenient

And that's a profile in cowardice

This strikes me as pretty bad

Barack Obama should plan a speech at a large venue and then get on stage and say "Release the Epstein files" and then leave

They're not, of course, in charge of money in the treasury and how it is spent without Congress oking it. That said, we're about to find out if someone is going to challenge this in court and what SCOTUS will say

And by no means do you have to respect Stephen Miller or Russ Vought for coming up with this scheme to use WIC as their Trojan horse to ending our Constitutional appropriations system and handing it to one single monarch. But I will say it's genius in how corrupt and morally bankrupt it is.

Some of us knew this was the end game from the start

Yeah look, it's a slick move, using WIC, because who hates WIC? But the precedent is:

1. The president can just unilaterally levy tariffs and
2. Use those dollars to fund ANYTHING, circumventing Congress.

Functionally, it is an autocracy.

Of course, ChatGPT only knows data and opinions that are out there and those favor the establishment because they're run by the establishment.

So please do NOT take this as an endorsement of anything (though I do like some of it!). Just an interesting and fun experiment while eating lunch.

8/8

Finally, I asked who is most like her, knowing no one checks all the boxes, but weighting for the most important things:

7/8

and

5. Violent-crime focus: guns trafficking and fentanyl supply chains; expand treatment and reentry.

Campaign theme: "Less performance. More results."

6/8

3. “Cheap, clean, made-in-America” energy buildout: transmission fast-track, domestic solar/wind/nuclear supply chains.

4. Secure border + fair system: modern E-Verify, rapid decisions, legal pathways tied to work and English acquisition.

5/8

Her top 5 campaign issues:

1. Build 3 million homes in 5 years via model code, transit-oriented incentives, and federal financing reforms.

2. National anti-corruption act: dark-money disclosure, conflict-of-interest rules, procurement transparency.

4/8

She's known for real-time contract dashboards; lifetime lobbying bans for top officials; whistleblower rewards. And on jobs, union-industry apprenticeships via community colleges.

She's married to an ER doctor.

3/8

She's known for avoiding performative stunts, but getting on-the-ground results on the border, statewide housing up-zoning near transit, permit-time “shot clocks,” antitrust actions on food and PBMs, and a refundable child-benefit paid monthly. She's a strong anti-corruption crusader.

2/8

For fun, at lunch I asked ChatGPT to access all available polling and focus testing and give me a mythical perfect candidate for Democrats in 2028 (if there are elections).

Here is Governor Elena "Lena" Vargas of Arizona. She's a 50 yo gay veteran (JAG), former AG and now Governor with results.

has anybody ever been more obviously full of shit than Pam Bondi is at the end of this 20 second clip?

I'm in an endless loop of AI videos of Tupac in pro wrestling and Stephen Hawking in skateboard X-Games competitions.

And I'll be honest, I can't stop watching them.
