The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

Expressing this deal in terms of Gigawatts (the language is directly from the press release) is both odd and intentional. It reframes the power consumption of AI as an expression of its utility rather than its wastefulness. investors.broadcom.com/news-release...

They are terrified of the No Kings rallies and doing everything they can to discredit them.

If you're on the fence about going, just think of how much it'll piss off these assholes.

Emmer: "We call it the 'Hate America' rally because you'll see the hate for America all over this thing when they show up. The rumor is that they can't end this shutdown because this small but very violent and vocal group is the only one that's happy about this."

For what it's worth, this could be turned on its head. The press should *always* convert AI business deals to net power consumption, and put it in relatable terms. For example, with 1 gigawatt, you could fast charge roughly 25 million iPhone 17s, or 80,000 household EVs, at once.

It would make sense to express the business transaction in terms of revenue for Broadcom, or number of chips to be delivered, not the power consumption of the end product. You don't go to the store and buy a killowatt worth of laptops.
