The idea of a slime like Kegseth ordering the prosecution of an American hero like Mark Kelly is peak Republicanism.

Who benefits from these measures? Not Americans, of course, except the GOP robber barons.
Trump busy bringing back measles, farm bailouts, ISIS, tax cuts for the rich, out of control military spending, conflicts with allies, millions without health insurance, food stamp cuts, military parades, pardons for drug traffickers, pollution, and foreign wars.

No shock due to Russia's influence over Trump and the GOP.
2/ The White House proposes millions in FBI cuts, shifts agents to immigration enforcement, and may move CI authority outside DOJ, raising risks to national security and civil liberties. All of this creates dangerous gaps in the U.S. ability to detect, disrupt, and deter foreign intel operations.

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

There's no rule of journalism that says you have to show a president telling lie after lie – uncorrected – many times a day. That's a decision that corporate media are making for purposes other than delivering the truth to the public.
