"Can Donald Trump run for a 3rd term?"
No.
"What if he..."
Still no.
"How about..."
STFU, No.
"Then why are we talking about it!?"
Because evil MAGA apparatchiks need you to fear that he will.

29.10.2025 11:26 โ ๐ 874 ๐ 251 ๐ฌ 17 ๐ 6There are signs that Morgan is becoming a cause cรฉlรจbre for neo-Nazis in the United States. The white supremacist Paul Miller, who gained notoriety for making hate-filled videos while wearing Nazi garb, said on social media that he was working to secure Morgan's release and directed followers to a crowdfunding campaign that he said was from Morgan directly.
"I am in contact with @GasChambers," Miller tweeted on Sunday, referring to an X account that says it has raised money for. "We are going to pay the bail for Kenneth in the next few days he will be free. Gaschamber was very kind and gracious. We just spoke on the phone. We are going to get Kenneth out very soon."
Miller said the donation campaign was needed because Morgan had lost his job over the incident. The crowdfunding campaign, on a site that bills itself as a Christian alternative to GoFundMe and is reportedly popular among extremists, has raised more than $5,000 so far, with donors listed as "White Power," "Joseph Goebbels," and "H3il H1tler."
Nazis openly organize on Elon Muskโs X platform and the Nazi fundraising outfit GiveSendGo to bail out a Nazi in Georgia who donned an SS uniform and assaulted a woman with a glass pitcher. www.jpost.com/diaspora/ant...

Unless your gen AI use is about addressing things like climate change, pandemic preparedness, or is built, managed, and run without stealing to serve an ethical goal that can't be reached otherwise, gen AI is not the answer.

I know Iโm not the only one thinking Trumpโs not building a ballroom but an alternate White House, lined in plenty of tacky gold to match his ego. Heโs not planning on leaving.
I think about this in how the guy who ran MySpace sold his company and then traveled the world doing photography, while the guy who runs Facebook never let it go and has gone out of his way to destroy democracy in order to gain more power.
