Let's talk about the midterms.

ICE is terrorizing and punishing blue states and cities to suppress your votes using fear from ICE- yes it's already started.

Blue states need to wake up and have a plan to deploy the National Guard to protect polling stations & voters from the federal government!

According to DHS, about 3,000 ICE and federal agents are operating in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. THREE THOUSAND! The entire Minneapolis Police Department only has about 580 officers. This is outrageous and unnecessary.

I don't hate AI. When applied well, It is an excellent technology. It has saved more lives than I could count.

What I hate is: Large Language Models and *GENERATIVE* AI.
