Kind of incredible that @HaleyforMI started the campaign pretending she was in lockstep with the UAW and ends it with them denouncing her bullshit

Yesterday's earnings call with Reddit's CEO will be referenced for years to come. Reddit, $RDDT, is now down -42% in 8 trading days. AI has disrupted search, and the internet more broadly, forever. Our thoughts on this are included below.
Reddit's earnings call has exposed the new reality for thousands of companies. "AI mode does not drive traffic. Not for us and not to anybody as far as I know. It used to be a traffic driver. Now it's not." - Reddit CEO. The reality is that AI is fundamentally changing the way that humans access the internet. Just 24 hours prior to this statement, Google's stock erased -$480 billion on the same issue: AI is disrupting the traditional search model. For decades, the internet operated on a simple model. Search engines directed users to websites, and those websites monetized the traffic. AI is destroying this business model, and it's happening at an accelerating pace. The traditional model of internet traffic is rapidly becoming outdated. The internet has entered a new era.

This is a really cool protest. Go to your local county councils or your city boards and when the issue of data centers comes up play the sound of a data center near you so that nothing can get done.
Kentucky city official doesn't like the sound of data center that resident presents to him...

Jason Miller is the White House employee who arranged a green card and visa for former Brazilian Presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro, with whom he works politically. Bolsonaro's father is in jail for trying to overthrow the Brazilian government. Miller is also refusing to make MANDATORY financial disclosures to a Florida court in the nine-year-old paternity case over the son he fathered with former Trump 2016 campaign senior advisor @AJDelgado13 when he was the Communications Director. Delgado won a confidential settlement from the Trump 2016 campaign for Miller's conduct toward her. But the former Trump 2016 Comms Director is only paying $38,000 annually in interim child support while his wife's daughter of the same age attends a $48,000 per year private school. Both children have special needs. Not coincidentally, those disclosures Miller is withholding would have to say how much he earned from Brazil. Earlier this year, Miller was on a $1.8 million contract to be a registered foreign agent of India. This is the same Jason Miller who was Donald Trump's senior political advisor in the 2024 campaign. He's making a boatload of cash, not filing disclosures anywhere, while working in the White House and possibly acting as a foreign agent. And Jason Miller also skipped out on a deposition in the case, in what I can only describe as a blatant attempt to forestall a final trial hearing in the nine-year-old case where he's been spending at least $300,000 a year in attorneys' fees to fight Delgado. This is who is in the Trump White House today. America First MAGA voters complained about open borders and criminals coming in from abroad, while Trump's team is working for the alleged criminals to give them golden tickets to come to America.

EL-SAYED: RFK JR. was in town this week. He said that the 500 million Arabs in the world had never contributed anything to science. But to be fair, he is an expert on people who never contributed anything to science. He didn't bother to show up when 8000 people were infected by the shit lettuce. But he wants to come here and lecture you about potentially electing and arab-american to the U.S. Senate My guy has zero doctorates. I have two of them

This is genuinely one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Fox News thought they were interviewing a Trump supporter, and this man went on national television to explain that he showed up just to witness the MAGA cult in its natural habitat. I'm crying laughing.
Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

OBAMA: I inherited this major financial crisis. I never called my Treasury Secretary and said, “You've got to go to Arby's. Order roast beef. No cheese though that may look elitist.” They don't have solutions to actual problems, so they'd rather have the media and you talking about the Cheesecake Factory.

Imagine if a sitting Republican senator said voters should reject Jon Ossoff or Josh Shapiro because they reject Jesus. That would be a big story. This won't be because Islamophobia from powerful Republicans is simply the norm. It's why there's no comparison between the level of Islamophobia and the level of antisemitism in America today. Only one is actively promoted by the state. peterbeinart.substack.com/p/…
Moreno says El-Sayed can’t be a senator because he doesn’t understand that Jesus came here for our salvation.

In essence, this is no different than running risky Gain-of-Function research on on a dangerous pathogen... Uncontrolled H5N1 outbreaks on mink farms are a global risk, as Mink have α2,6 receptors similar to humans. The virus could evolve that infection route in Mink.
