JG and UBI serve two different goals. UBI should be seen as a dividend and a way for EVERYONE to benefit from productivity growth. If I never lose my job, why should I not benefit from AI? It was trained on my data. We don't issue jobs to reward stockholders for putting up capital.

Remember—if you gather an armed mob blocks from the seat of your government at a time it's closed to the public, a crime to trespass on, and accessible only by overwhelming cops, then tell them that unless they "fight like hell" at that building they'll lose their country, it's not inciting violence
Maybe the BBC can learn a thing or two about fake news from Trump | John Crace
The broadcaster didn’t make a very good job of its untruth – possibly because it hasn’t had as much practice

Roughly 72% of all political violence in America comes courtesy of the right, so documented by multiple credible sources.
On Jan 6 in DC, ~2500 MAGAs violently protested. DC police reported 174 police injuries, 9 deaths, & 1500+ criminal convictions.

On Oct 18 in NYC, ~100K Americans peacefully protested. NYPD reports 0 injuries, 0 deaths, & 0 arrests.

FACT—Right wing violence remains America’s biggest terror threat.

Two years after 10/7, we never hear media report in the year prior to 10/7—Hamas killed 240 Israelis, kidnapped 800 Israeli kids, held 8000 Israelis hostage, & built 12,000 homes on Israeli land. Why?

Because Hamas did none of those things—Israeli government did

It’s almost disorienting to see something this nakedly wonderful put in place by a non Scandinavian Western government in 2025.

Way to go Ireland.
Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

So, does this qualify as an impeachable thing? Or is that not a thing anymore? This IS fascism, and I fear for my kids future....
Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"

Are we vaccinating under 2s more than a generation (30 years) ago? We used fewer vaccines, protecting against 8 infectious diseases. These complex vaccines, containing over 3000 antigens, were good, but there was room for improvement.

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

Kids shot and killed at a Colorado school today? Eh, whatever. Charlie Kirk, who espoused hate, bigotry, and believed that the cost of the 2nd amendment was needless death, gets killed in Utah at a university? Spare me your fake, performative outrage....

Here's my strategy for alienating voters:
1. Tax the rich (progressive income, wealth, and inheritance taxes).
2. Capital gains are income, they get taxed the same. No discount for capital.
3. UBI.
4. Universal "free-at-service" healthcare.
5. Subsidized housing.
6. Equal rights for everyone.
This. Let’s do absolutely EVERYTHING to alienate our existing base to cater to those who will never ever ever ever take our side. Not only that, wish to destroy us, unhappy until every last one of us is dead. Body and/or soul.

Continue to call Braun!

Say NO to redistricting Indiana🚫
Indiana finds itself square in the middle of the Texas-California gerrymandering fight and Hoosier Republicans aren't sold on the idea. Will a trip to the White House change their minds?

This hurricane may end up being so powerful it expends as much energy as the entire 2013 hurricane season.
