The truth of the situation is even worse than this โcontextโ added by the NYT.
There is free, universal healthcare in Israel paid for by US tax payers *and* Palestinians canโt access it because of apartheid.
building a Dyson sphere around the sun is an incomprehensible undertaking. building one around the solar system is simply impossible in even the wildest sci fi projections of the future
every statement Altman and his fellow tech oligarchs make is just as preposterous
They're trying to convince everyone that building a Dyson Sphere around the solar system is more realistic than increasing the capital gains tax

These are tests and practice runs. If Dems win the midterms, MAGA is going to declare the elections illegitimate. Theyโll ignore congress, deny funds, salaries, access to offices or just outright abolish congress. Theyโre preparing for a full dismantling of the US.
If we've learned anything from Fearless Leader 2.0, it's that no action is too heinous, repugnant, brainless, self-defeating, or contemptible for him or his administration. BOHICA

Dear God,
Shouldnโt we be asking the Republicans near us (County/State Party officials, Rs elected to our city council, county commission, boards, Sheriff, etc) why they support protecting and coddling a convicted sexual child abuser and trafficker like Maxwell?
Amen.
