Palantir CEO Alex Karp: "This technology disrupts humanity's train, largely Democratic voters, and makes their economic power less, and increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working class, often male voters. These disruptions are going to disrupt every aspect of our society."
Remember how Jimmy Carter had to give up running his peanut farm while president to avoid conflicts of interest? Trump, on the other hand, has leveraged the presidency to rake in an unprecedented $1.4B mostly through crypto, often dictating policies that directly impact his business dealings.

tariffs happening for no reason and theyre making your life worse, secret police kidnapping people for no reason and making your life worse, firing thousands of government employees for no reason and making your life worse, going to war with iran for no reason and making your life worse
I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
The Department of Energy is warning that gas prices aren’t likely to come back down to pre-war levels until mid-2027 at the earliest.
“Per the analysis by Open the Books, in September, the Pentagon spent $2 million on Alaskan king crab, $6.9 million on lobster tail, $15.1 million on ribeye steak, and $1 million on salmon.”
The Pentagon has confirmed that approximately 140 U.S. troops have been wounded in Trump's Iran war.
Trump is spending $1 billion a day waging war on Iran. Meanwhile...
Trump's sons are investing in a drone company that could soon receive Pentagon contracts.
And of course Trump's Big Oil donors stand to gain windfall profits as the price of oil skyrockets.
War is a racket.
The Tennessee Senate has passed a bill to make it illegal for corporate investors that own 100 or more single-family homes to buy houses in the state's largest counties.
Nashville Democrat's Charlane Oliver’s “Homes not Hedge Funds Act” passed with only one no vote.
Are we still looking for waste, fraud, and abuse? I think I found some.
Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
The New York City Council is considering a bill to allow the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development to seize buildings from landlords who have racked up housing code violations and debt from unpaid taxes and fines and turn them over to better owners.

State authorities are searching Epstein's New Mexico ranch where strangled girls' bodies are allegedly buried.
So Trump wants to keep the option of drafting other people's kids into war on the table.
All for a war of choice as he spends billions on bombs and cuts funding for health care here at home.
This could NOT be more wrong—Congress should END the war in Iran & FUND health care.
@ Now This Impact: AI consumed as much water as the entire water bottle industry this year. It also created as much carbon pollution as New York City.
This is so depressing. Soon we'll have no resources left on the planet thanks to AI.
#AI #tech #climate #environment #news #water #climatechange
IN 2025 AI CONSUMED AS MUCH WATER AS THE ENTIRE WATER BOTTLE INDUSTRY. THE. ENTIRE. INDUSTRY.
This is why I prefer using the library for information instead of using AI. Why I prefer using a camera to using AI to generate images and video. And using my brain instead of using AI to generate text.
Kinda quiet on here but that's okay 👀
