Trump - 4 more years of this at least...

[sugilite:Me]

The Guardian Balanced?!?

Out of the larger left wing media - yes.

As for Right Media Channels - I listen to Ben Shapiro, but with a *big* grain of salt.

Hard pass on shapiro, I have seen several of his videos, he does make "some" good points, but I view him as a right wing maddow with an even more annoying voice and sense of smugness. I will check your other suggestions out.

Be warned, despite Stewarts video, I do still firmly believe trump has fascist tendencies and is just getting warmed up.

Now I'm turning on my trumbastic app as I have just received an email from trump saying that if I can sell enough subscriptions of trumbastic I will get some melania crypto coin and an nft of him in his red Make America Great Again gruts - abbreviated to maga in a #3 font for obvious reasons.

Rightio folks lets go, more trumptastic features that you may not know about!
1. Using trumbastic instantly gives you the right to dismiss out of hand any sources gleaned from the left, no pesky fact checking required - "Oh that is a left wing source" and poooof the annoying need to offer a valid rebuttal is gone!

2. You get to use the coverall term "someone" to justify any position you hold dear to your opinions! "someone" had delayed justice for Jan 6th - Let em all go! Especially the violent ones because you may need them for your next insurrection - that is not releasing criminals and insurrectionists - that is sound asset management!

3. Free delayed justice tickets! Commit any crime you like and applying trumbastic scores you free delaying tactics for years and years. Never face annoying consequences for your crimes ever again!

4. With trumbastic you get to present whitehouse press releases that have already been released by the other side as if they are your own! Don't worry, because of clever media segregation, your mob will of never seen the other release! We even provide a hot blonde press release officer that has committed crimes herself - don't worry, she has plenty of trumbastic delayed justice tickets, so the term "alleged" is as far as it will go -Weeeeee!

Be aware that the trumbastic app is a fork of the app previously known as X-hitlerbastic. There was just a "small problem" - (as seen below) with that app for the subscribers after 5 years of use - but ignore that, just sent cash - lots and lots of sweet, sweet cash to trumbastic!





X-hitlerbastic apartments and homes prior to 5 year subscription.....



After the 5 year subscription has expired......

I, personally, think that the Guardian is the worst of the lot - but as I said, at least they are somewhat honest in being the worst.

I get that on Shapiro, as I said, it is with a big grain of salt that I listen to him - not sure I would call him a Right Wing Maddow though.

Well, we shall see.

My hope for this Trump administration is that he guts a lot of the bloat from the Federal Government, gets rid of ideologically driven positions and departments (so far, so good), acts as the Big Stick that keeps everyone else in line (Gaza done, onto Russia) grows the US economy, secures the borders and shows other western countries (Cough the UK Cough) that actually closing the border and deporting illegal migrants is not only good, but is legal (also, a good start).

One area I am particularly interested in - is what RFK gets up to - I have said elsewhere, I am not onboard with his ideas per se (as in, I dont know if they are true or not) but he seems to genuinely believe them and seems genuinely passionate about public health, I dont see a scenario where things for US public health can get much worse - but on the off-chance it gets better (and realistically it will take at least a decade to see) - I am interested.

Finally, I hope he sticks to his notion of states rights and pushing issues back to the State level to legislate and handle.

Fox "News" reports:
"Secretary Hegseth has decided to immediately pull General Milley's security detail. Hegseth also ordered the new acting inspector general to conduct a review board to potentially strip General Milley of a star in retirement.. All highly unusual actions."

Pete Kegbreath is a small man indeed but I don't think he dreamed these things up by himself.

Aaaand there are moves in California to hold a vote on seceding from the Union. That's a change. It's usually the redneck states that talk secession but they're broke and are kept in funds by money from the Democrat controlled states California and New York etc. If California left there'd be a lot less money to keep them afloat. Secession is not likely but it might focus some minds.

It sure is relentless.

Glorious, isnt it.

It would be hilarious if they all accepted it.

trump fails to stop Chinese AI company wiping a trillion dollars off off his tech bros company stock market values - "The Chinese did not dare try it under me" announced Biden - providing all the proof required that it is definitely trumps fault.

Indeed it would...

But not in the way you think.

You mean having to go maga cap in hand begging the handful of middle class citizens he actually managed to enrichen in order to get some workers back? You know like president musk had to do with his supercharger team

We’ll have to wait and see confirmation of if it’s as good as they say it is. Also a lot of AI is going to be used in defence and big business applications they will be wary of Chinese back doors so domestic AI supplier still needed.
Trump and other stock analysts have made a good point about the benefit though. If AI can now be had ten times cheaper that’s a massive increase in profit margin for the end user. Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Tesla etc and other big caps that will use AI are as big or bigger than Nvidia so it ends up being a win.
But we know from their stealth fighters and certain other products the Chinese are not shy of faking it til they make it.

You are going to have explain this economic theory.
Exactly how does an end user have a profit margin.....

Artificial intelligence?......you mean like trump?

Generally I have the utmost sympathy for people whose lives are torn apart by Trump's performative cruelty. For others not so much.

Do you have the same utmost sympathy for the burglar whose life is torn apart by getting arrested?

What about the Drunk Driver who blows over the limit?

How about the fraudster?

They, too, have their lives torn apart by breaking the law and then experiencing the consequences of their actions, so surely you must do.

I haven't seen a lot of actual case studies so far which show AI being applied commercially, I guess it's still too early on for that. Apparently you can use it to find a pet friendly restaurant and text that info to your middle class mates while you're strolling down some street, though.

I don't know how authoritative the tech podcasts I watch on Youtube are, but I've yet to come across one that raves about AI functionality (such as it exists so far) in practice.
