BREAKING: Democrats have *flipped* a seat in Georgia's state House tonight.

Democrat Eric Gisler has won the seat, which was previously held by a Republican who resigned this fall.

This is a red territory: Trump won the district by 13% in 2024.

love to get lectured on the virtues of spartanism from the guy with the gold toilets
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

“Politico FIFA-ed Trump into giving them an interview. Having flattered Trump into an interview, Politico then flattered him with a series of softball questions.”
I Factchecked Trump’s Big Politico Interview – Because Politico Didn’t!
Interviewer Dasha Burns allowed the president to tell lie after lie, and also failed to push back on his racism. So here is a rebuttal from Zeteo.

And it's bitter and whispers chaotic things

Dead kids can't sue but kids (who turn into adults) irreparably damaged from not being vaccinated ... should be allowed to
I can’t say too often: we know how this plays out because we’ve seen it before.

Anti-vax wins equal dead kids and grownups (but especially kids).

Yes, do everything you can to protect yourself and those you love. But this is a society problem, not one individuals can ”win” on their own.

Remember when overt racism from elected officials was bad
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

Before you follow me thinking I'm your next favorite AI critic from the cultural sector, know my stance is remarkably ambivalent: there's a lot to love and to hate with "AI". This account offers a bit of a balance, alongside stupid jokes.

People are picking up their lives and driving all the way to Richmond to find materials that were made up by a computer. I understand why they're so upset when they get here and we tell them we can't help them.

Folks might not know a lot of people are getting *very* upset that the materials they request are not available in the libraries/archives they're requesting from.

We're getting lots here at the Library of Virginia: requests of documents likely surfaced by large language models that *do not exist*.

If you elect unqualified, corrupt, reckless people, don't be surprised if you win the world's worst prizes. For America, it's a terrible economy, endless scandals, and a white nationalist regime.
