Do I read Section 4 properly: we have identified an Answer, and given DoE 60 days to identify the Question?
Shit.

Genisis is Skynet!
"the president has directed the Department of Energy to launch an AI project called the genesis mission" sounds like something out of a technothriller

Every day it becomes more difficult to tell @nytimes.com from @nytpitchbot.bsky.social.

Zohran Mamdani “seems to think the historic nature of his victory allows him to steamroll state government,” Nicole Gelinas writes. “But he will face political and legal barriers if he tries to treat Albany as a mere inconvenience.”
Opinion | How to Resist a Populist Mayor and a Populist President
Hochul can show how Democrats wary of a mayor-elect’s populist brand of socialism can push back against it.

Impeach and remove.
Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

It costs nothing for you to share this.

For every dollar you donate to your local food pantry you’ll be providing up to 10 meals to families in need this holiday season.

terrorizing our communities, and corruptly self-enriching at the expense of the rest of us.

We hope to celebrate the Democratic Party for fighting back. But if they surrender, the next step is primaries and new leadership. We get the party we demand, and we intend to demand one that fights.

Please call for new leadership if this goes through, @warren.senate.gov. CC @cantwell.senate.gov @murray.senate.gov. This is defeat from the jaws of victory.
I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

We polled Indivisible members over the weekend on whether Dems should take a deal or keep fighting for the ACA subsidies. Results: 98.67% said keep fighting.

Dems who vote to surrender now are fracturing their own party in a way that will reverberate loudly in the primaries.
So Democrats get:

1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays

2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail

3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts

Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

If Schumer votes AGAINST this but enough Ds vote FOR it that it passes, he needs to RESIGN immediately.

He will have shown himself to be absolutely ineffective as a minority leader. He has to go.

Literally resign tonight.

@schumer.senate.gov , pay attention. This democrat will absolutely divert next cycle’s donations to whomever primaries establishment democrats if there is a deal that doesn’t fund ACA. Don’t waste Tuesday’s mandate. CC @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov

If you have a Democrat for a senator, call them now and demand that they DO NOT CAVE.

☎️ (202) 224-3121

Late night votes are the refuge of craven cowards.
Vote could be as early as 8 pm but probably will happen late at night/early morning to minimize people paying attention

Dear Democratic Senators: if you vote for this selling out of the ACA it will be the end of your careers. Depend upon it. You are there to defend this country against Trump and the fascists, not collude with them. If you become Quislings, you will forever REMAIN Quislings

So, uh, let’s go ahead and hold the line on the shutdown? I have a nagging fear that Schumer is already working to grab defeat from the jaws of victory.

Dear chat, is it a bad sign when your office has a meeting room dedicated to folks “experiencing an intense personal or work related crisis?” This is a totally normal world we’re living in, right? Asking for a friend.

Dear chat, I’m pretty sure the cashier at Target has a crush on me, she reluctantly smiles every time I walk by.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

I think we can all agree that anyone wanting a burrito should have their human rights violated at will. That is just the price they will have to pay so that our Big Sandwich Platform can win elections.
