If you’re not going to tax billionaires, it should at least be required to have a court appointed and mandated therapist to help them work through the issues that require them to horde such wealth. 🧐

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” is the new, "They paved paradise and put up a parking lot."

Have any of the billionaires, tech oligarchs or massive conglomerates actually expressed why data centers are needed? You would think with all the PR firms they could employ that somewhere in their messaging there would be an expression of their necessity.

It’s not much, but I do miss when religious people used to lie to themselves and others about caring for others. The Christians in America are unrecognizable from the myths that they used to preach. It’s gonna be sad not to see some of them in Heaven.

IRS refuses to publish report. Ahead of the midterm elections, the Trump regime is withholding detailed information that illustrates how King Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act hurt millions of Americans. The data from the IRS was originally scheduled to be released in July & updated in September.

It’s been noted numerous times, but we really should know who’s writing these diatribes when the President doesn’t have the capacity for this speech pattern and clearly doesn’t use speech writers for his appearances. Elections worldwide should be free of war criminals.

Trump issues a "Complete and Total Endorsement" of Netanyahu, warning Israelis that if they elect anyone else, "America will have to do this work ourselves" in Iran. He calls Bibi an "even greater Partner for Peace" for waging the war with him.

I sometimes wonder how many people in America think about how each vote from their representative helps their districts versus how the vote enriches Trump and the corruption of big business. They should have to supply a reasoning like a SCOTUS opinion. Makes tracking dishonesty easier.

Trump has sycophants. Otherwise… He appears to be incapable of friendships except when feigning over other bullies (dictators). Enabling a generation of deplorables that live in an alternate reality. This can be seen in the cult as the lies hold more merit than when facts are laid out before them.

More GOP projection or someone just said that to JD?

is there anyone thinking/writing about the actual mechanics of disentangling the US government from elon musk?

If the Yandex military strike debilitated Russian propaganda bots as it is said, it makes a case for why Trump and his GOP cronies are so desperate for American data centers to be built. Moratoriums on data centers and regulation of tech oligarchs in America are now a necessity more than ever.

Billionaires have the EQ of a petulant child and IQs merely propped up by the bank accounts they accrued on others’ labor. They obviously don’t have the wisdom or passions to do anything productive with those assets. Having to hoard it because they were just lucky to have come across such wealth.

ChatGPT is adding the signatures of real New Yorker cartoonists to its AI-generated images. So far, I've found the signatures of more than 15 contributors. "It’s slop, and unlike the other slop that I’ve encountered, this is slop that’s pretending to be me." www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/chat...

When you hear Trump say things about others hating the country… Remember it’s only his group that is hell bent on changing every facet of what gives our country its robust identity.

No Kings is great, but when are we marching on Washington? Probably should schedule that before Trump’s sniper manned, Triumphant Arch. No?

After watching Trump’s latest UN speech (and I use the word "speak" loosely), I wondered if Republican leaders genuinely not realize how bad he looks, globally, or are they fully aware and indifferent?

To the victor goes the spoils? If that’s their mantra… Then maybe it’s time for the 99% to claw back some ill gotten gains. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Decorum for the norm needs overhauled. Obstacles need erected to slow down the landslide of toxic sludge from the 1% and corporations. The GOP had no qualms about obstructing Obama’s SCOTUS nominee. Does the opposition need suggestions from the masses? Are they listening?

Please know that this is one of my few legitimate areas of actual, high-level professional expertise: Kicking the healthiest people off of a health insurance program will bankrupt it. Not 'could;' not 'might,' not 'probably," but absolutely will, with mathematical certainty.

Dr Oz says the Trump administration will kick more than a million people off health insurance because some of them have "never filed a claim"

Sure looks like Susan Collins caved to Trump every time because of kompromat that resulted from an investigation that he squashed at the FBI. Corruption seeps from the pores of the GOP.

If the pedophiles of the GOP and especially Trump were innocent of child molestation and the sex trafficking of minors, they would release the EPSTEIN FILES… I’ve heard.

Business men running the country “like a company” will result in them seeing some as shareholders and others as employees to take advantage of like expendable cogs.

Americans are in an abusive relationship with their government. We’ve been isolated from all our friends (foreign allies) that we have no one to call for support and in turn are relegated to taking the beatings. (sigh)

I think we need a pop-up video show for people that only watch TV news that points to deeper truths and blatant lies. Any television news producers have the contacts to make that happen?

They’re all treating their positions like they sit on the board of the HOA and need clout to hype themselves up at the monthly meeting.

Are the Supreme Court Justices securing their seats in the ballroom bunker end of the world silo? Doesn’t seem to be much wisdom or logic stemming from their proclamations.
