there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

#AI is an amplifier of your skill. Software developers have been saying this for months.
Good engineers benefit from AI, bad engineers are exposed by it.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Rubio walks back the claim he made yesterday that Israel was going to attack first, and forced America's hand. He falsely accuses the media of incorrectly reporting what he said yesterday. What he said yesterday was clear as day: Israel was going in, so US had to as well to avoid Iranian reprisals.

Nigel Farage says Trump presidency makes world better, safer place'
Nigel Farage has insisted Donald Trump becoming president for a belated second term will help make the world a "better, safer place".
The Reform UK leader has been vocal of his friendship with Trump, and even received a shoutout from the Republican during a recent rally.
This weekend, Reform UK are having a conference in Exeter, where Mr Farage remarked: "We can say with some confidence that 'woke' just died in America.
"Trump being there makes the world a better, safer place."

BADLY WRONG about Brexit.
It’s cost the UK economy alone circa Β£130bn.

BADLY WRONG about Trump.
Attacked more countries of any modern President.

Farage clearly has incredibly poor judgement, yet the mainstream media, ironically, constantly question Starmer’s.
