I read this and my brain made distressed animal sounds.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

Inferential Mechanics Part 1: Causal Mechanistic Theories of Machine Learning in Chemical Biology with Implications Machine learning techniques are now routinely encountered in research laboratories across the globe. Impressive progress has been made through ML and AI techniques with regards to large data set proce...

So, looks like previous machine learning has been throwing all the colors in a bucket and getting brown. We can use machine learning to subcategorize colors, then give an example of "red" and get actual information. Well, switch "cure for disease X" for "red".

Nancy Mace is awful. I'm glad she's on the outs with her voters.

Republicans are going to try to use Kristi Noem's firing to deflect from ICE's cruelty ahead of the midterms.

Don't let them. She didn't design the agenda. Stephen Miller and Donald Trump did.

Firing the face doesn't absolve the people who built the machine.

I have a feeling Trump won’t remain in office until 2029.

He has become far too, far too, far too mad and dangerous in his behavior, and in the consequences of his madness, and he’s dragging far too many people down with him.

It's all way too much already.

Even red states are defiantly rejecting DOJ’s demands for private voter data β€œElection officials across the political spectrum stood up to protect state sovereignty and voters’ security, regardless of partisanship,” voting rights advocate David Becker told Democracy Docket.

Earlier this week, Idaho became the latest state to push back against the U.S. Department of Justice’s campaign to seize the private voter data of every state. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/eve...

I have to write things for myself regularly. If I enjoy writing, then I can better imagine others enjoying writing.

Today, Michelle and I are proud to announce that we will be hosting the dedication ceremony for the Obama Presidential Center on June 18th in Chicago, and welcoming the public on June 19th.

We can’t wait for you to visit. Go to obama.org to learn more.

Distressing content warning:

A bodycam video seems to contradict the claims made by ICE regarding the fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez.

Homeland Security and ICE kept the murder of 23-year-old American citizen Ruben Ray Martinez on March 2025 a complete secret.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Can’t wait for the Benghazi 2.0 hearings to happen over abandoning US Officials and Diplomats across the Middle East because a child rapist and money launderer is being blackmailed to start a war on behalf of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Shapiro on SOTU: First off, it was boring. It was poorly delivered, and it was too damn long. This dude, who’s the worst orator of our time, did two hours. He comes off as totally unhinged. He’s like spitting everywhere, and he’s lying constantly about things.

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.

He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

The Whole Internet Is Utterly Appalled By This Latest White House "Call Of Duty"-Style Post "US troops are dying in a war and the White House is out here treating it like it's a video game. The bar is in hell."

Sick beyond comprehension.

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

07.03.2026 03:39 πŸ‘ 8776 πŸ” 1718 πŸ’¬ 74 πŸ“Œ 57

Our troops are dying this isn’t a video game. The White House is posting so-called β€œhype” videos that mix real footage from the war in Iran with clips from movies and video games like Call of Duty. It’s an absolute disgrace.

We desperately need to grow independent media as fast as we can. You can start by signing up for Democracy Docket. I started it 6 years ago to be unapologetic pro-democracy. No corporate backers. It will never bow down or obey.

Sign up now to help it meet this moment. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

They've been deserted near me. I think people are trying to wait it out. Or they can't afford to fill up now.

Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)

I'm already at nearly 40 citations of my articles/co-written articles this year, and it's only early March.

At this rate, I could be at 600+ citations by the end of the year.

I would be highly shocked if I got there, but it's been dizzying to see the upward trajectory.
