I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

I am skeptical, all the Ai taking jobs have looked mostly like moving jobs overseas

It’s a charade, if he is healthy he will run, he will get sued and the SC will roll the red carpet.

I solved that problem by declining all town hall and corp meetings, they are fluff and justification for execs getting paid more than average workers

They will claim investigation into fraud during voting and shut down the voting machines multiple times by seizing them from inspection and keep doing that to prevent ppl online from voting on time, Supreme Court will probably let it stand. That’s their playbook … vote early and hope for the best.

If they were it would be layoffs in other departments, this is looking like an Ai bubble 🫧 late stage

The most tiring part is explaining it to normies, not everyone gets it and you’re left looking like you’re making it up.

In Spain, what once seemed impossible is now widespread: the young are turning to the far right | MarΓ­a RamΓ­rez Migration is barely mentioned – instead, failed policies on housing, wages and employment are driving young voters into the arms of Vox, says MarΓ­a RamΓ­rez, deputy managing editor of elDiario.es

Always be ready to move again even if you head for Spain , the world is changing

I can tell you from experience offshoring jobs is the real threat and Ai is the excuse. Ai job loses won’t accelerate for at least 3-5 yrs from now. So this tracks.

Washington Post v. Democracy Docket on today's Bolton news.

I cannot express how dangerous it is that legacy media is normalizing Trump's targeting of his political opponents. I don't like Bolton. But what is happening here is dangerous and wrong.
