Shut the fuck up, Rahm. And James Carville and the rest of you. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT EXIST. You cannot create the opponents you want, you have to run against the opponents you HAVE. No one wants Rahm Emmanuel to run for President. Chicago hated him by the end. Fuck you Rahm. All the way to hell.

This should surprise exactly no one. But it points out that LLMs are not going to reduce costs in health care.
🧪 A new study found care recommended by LLMs costs 3.2x more than plans from treating physicians ($314 vs. $97 per visit at Medicare rates). Across 200 real clinical encounters, AI ordered 5.6x more specialist referrals and nearly 2x as many new medications. #MedSky

This is also what lesbian comic Kate Clinton used to call "Another Announcement from the Department of Duh." or more succinctly.....Queen, please.
🚨BOMBSHELL: A documentary released this morning features three male sex workers who say they were paid to have sex with the late Senator Lindsey Graham, who was long plagued by gay rumors despite his anti-LGBTQ policy stances. One man says he was 17 at the time of his sexual encounter with Graham.
The Oligarchs are squeezing more and more control over media.
So the same month that Elon Musk throttled Starlink to run his own military policy, he's also seeking more control over your flow of information. Musk and the Ellisons will control CNN and CBS for news; HBO, Warner Bros, Paramount & more for entertainment; Twitter (X) and TikTok for social media.

There are no words. The evil of these people is astounding. It's no wonder they're all Epstein enablers and protectors. They don't take child sex abuse seriously AT ALL. They don't care what happens to children. Children are disposable props to these people.
Unearthed footage of Vivek Ramaswamy mocking Amy Acton for being a survivor of childhood abuse: "She has no vision other than to complain about what someone else did to her"
Where do you even begin with these people. "PROVE IT!" And yes, there are court records. There are newspaper stories from 1978. Dr. Acton and her brother have not spoken to their egg donor in nearly 50 years because its husband raped Amy Acton.
MAGA influencers hit with community notes after pushing Vivek Ramaswamy’s disgusting attack ad narrative
I can attest that the OG College Republicans in the 1980s that I had experiences with back when I was the Co-President of Gay Illini (I know but that was the name) at UIUC then were just as bad. They did have to hide the racism a little more carefully then. But they were dreadful people.
every college republican in 2026 is the worst person you have ever met there are basically no exceptions
Where do you even go with something like this. Someone basically said "yeah, your kid deserved to die." About a special needs toddler. Think about that. The lack of a filter or any compassion/empathy online with lots of people is deeply sad and disgusting.
THIS IS WHAT WE'RE VOTING AGAINST! We have all seen the lack of decency, empathy, and humanity from MAGA. It's a badge of honor for them. That vile behavior can so easily become just pure evil. The words PEACE, RESPECT, UNITY on a beautiful child's t-shirt made this man happy that they were dead.

WATCH — @abdulelsayed.bsky.social to ABC: “An ally that takes your money to push you into wars you shouldn’t be fighting is not an ally… I think it’s time for us to realize Israel is not actually our friend.”

This story is absolutely vile. Ramaswamy has stooped to a new low. This news story lays it all out. www.msn.com/en-us/news/o...
Amy Acton's brother slams Vivek Ramaswamy featuring her estranged mother in a campaign ad. "This desperate, disgusting attack reveals exactly who Vivek Ramaswamy is at his core – a pathetic excuse for a man who is willing to hurt anyone as long as it gets him what he wants."
CNN is quickly going to be a shell of it's former self. Just like CBS. Bari Weiss will fuck it up just like she did CBS because she's an incompetent turd.
“Remember: always be truthful, not neutral.” That’s Christiane Amanpour’s parting message as she announces she’s leaving CNN after 43 years, just weeks after Paramount completed its $81 billion takeover of CNN’s parent company.

Replying to @qasimrashid.com
The tweet below describes perfectly Jan Crawford's knowingly false and racist commentary, and how Crawford even lied while trying to appear to take accountability for it. The only reason Jan Crawford has not be fired by @cbsnews.com is because that company, like her, is now thoroughly corrupt.

Don't buy Russel Stover candy. It's made with prison quasi-slave labor.
People are discussing how Halloween candy is so terrible these days. A reminder that alot of the candy we eat is made with women’s prison labor. Russell Stover’s factory in Kansas busses in 150 women a day via a convict leasing program to staff their candy factory.

Another one. This one from March at FIT in New York. Two women were given Fentanyl but told they were given cocaine. Now two men are charged in their intentional drugging and rape. One of the women died.
A college student died after she was drugged and raped in a New York City college dorm room, federal prosecutors announce.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Roman glass work. It's incredible how modern some of the forms look today. I recently went to the Getty Villa and was blown away by the Greek and Roman glass work, esp. the Roman stuff. It's incredibly beautiful. So much could be copied and sold today and fit right into our world.
A delicate little Roman glass basket. I love the inventiveness of the ancient glass worker who made this delightful vessel about 1,800 years ago 📷 by me #Archaeology

And don't forget that Hungary was on the AXIS SIDE in World War 2. The Hungarians were ruled buy a fascist party called Arrow Cross and its leader Admiral Horthy (hilarious because Hungary was then and still is landlocked).
A wild thing about Harris is that he credits his father for teaching him about the horrors of socialism. His father spent time in a Soviet POW camp. In 1944. Remind me, who were the Soviets fighting in 1944?
And Rep. Harris is a lying sack of shit. He can't handle the fact that people are calling him on his lies. Poor baby. He should take a ride on the WAHHHHHHHMBULANCE! He later got in trouble for yelling at a reporter for recording a post-debate conversation. He's a dumbass. Bye Miss Thing.
WATCH: Andy Harris has a crash out after his constituents laugh at him for trying to blame higher gas prices on... Democrats. "You are rude!" #MD01
