Republicans want to increase the defense budget to $1.5 trillion in 2027. That defense budget alone would add an additional $5.8 trillion to the national debt over the next decade.

A generic version is on GoodRx for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugs for $16.65.

My kids & their friends say “that looks/sounds like AI” to mean shitty & fake/stupid. Really incredible to be inundated by “transformative AI“ discourse when the reality is so plainly the opposite.
The bosses are forcing their employees to use it. Politicians are competing to shovel money & infrastructure at it. The billionaires who control media are constantly lecturing & hectoring people to accept it & use it more.
They don't care it's losing money. They don't care people hate it.

Sadistic, violent liars.
ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”
What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.
