NEW: Welcome to the Great AI Bubble. Yes, it’s here. And yes, it’s going to burst.

It’s also got way more in common with the Epstein scandal than you really want to know.

I wrote a book about January 6, 2021.

Want to know when the Trump administration began its systematized lying about antifa and the FBI being behind MAGAs' attack on the Capitol?

January 6, 2021.

Rudy Giuliani had a suite at the Willard Hotel that was the command center for broadcasting that lie.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

"Labeling beliefs--as opposed to actions--as suspicious or criminal is antithetical to the First Amendment and betrays American pluralism."

"For me as a veteran, this is more than just a personal injustice—it’s a constitutional affront." #KavanaughStop
"[A]gents engulfed my car in tear gas, smashed my driver-side window, and pepper-sprayed my face.... I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. No explanation. No charges. No apology. One day, I was just told, 'you’re free to go.'" #KavanaughStop
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

if i were a would-be dictator whose only civilian check on power had been consumed by total-complete partisan loyalty, something i would definitely do is call an unprecedented in-person meeting of the only people who could stop me and then proceed to illustrate why they should stop me

Just called Hulu (888-755-7907) and told them I’m canceling our subscription due to the Kimmel/Trump situation.

This creates “case” that is passed up through their system, logged and counted. The person on the phone was great, and it sounds like they’re getting lots of similar calls.

Just finished The Man Without a Face by @mashagessen.bsky.social. As relevant today as it was on publication in 2012. The parallels to the US today under Trump 2.0 are frightening.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

The entirety of the Jewish people should not be held responsible for the actions of Netanyahu.

All Palestinians should not be punished for the actions of Hamas.

Just like all U.S. citizens are not at fault for the murderous regime of Trump.

This should not be controversial.

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.
