Trump is a damned war criminal.
Where is our Congress??? John Roberts & his SCOTUS have done so much damage by declaring a president immune from our laws.
As a citizen I do not agree with this Venezuelan war of Trump's.
Stay focused. This is all to avoid the Epstein files, videos and photos.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

Amazon has seemingly removed the Banana Fish AI dub, likely in response to the vocal outcry
It should be noted that they can remove this AI dub, or all of their AI dubs
But they can’t remove the fact that they chose to try to do it in the first place.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.
