I stare at AI and robotics trends all day every day. Have for 5+ years. I used to think we would have 5 to 10 years from now before robots could do any labor job humans can. It's max 3 years AT SCALE now.
Any job. Any level of intelligence. Any level of dexterity. You'll see it clearly in '27

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal."
That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

The Democratic party needs leadership with giant ruthless intensity. Anything less will look like weakness. ... And frankly like complicity.
As long as Schumer is around the Senate is fucked.
I have mixed feelings about our congressional potential. Jeffries has been both competent & tone deaf

These plot points wouldn't make it into a b movie script.
It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

AOC: This administration — and Noem — spits on the American flag every time they engage in that nonsense. So I don’t want to hear anything about “America First.” These people, and this administration, are putting America last by acting like their allegiance is to a man instead of the Constitution.

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.
