4 assumptions that dictate every viewpoint I have: 1) There will always be a competition to be "King of the Hill”. 2) Power vacuums fill. 3) Make room for assholes in your system, they'll always exist, and most viewpoints are subjective. 4) INCENTIVES RULE THE WORLD.

Cuatro de las últimas 5 Champions las han ganado equipos en los que ha jugado Mbappé en los últimos 5 años. Pero Mbappé no hanado ninguna. Dos las ganó el Real Madrid, hasta que él llegó. Dos las ha ganado el PSG, desde que él se fue. Mbappé es un cáncer. Abre los ojos ya.

Paxton. real MAGA. hopefully the GOP gets the message (they won't).

Counterpoint:

apparently it's your right as an American citizen to sell products to the government that have a back-door / off switch, so that your corporate board / A-class stockholders can veto American foreign policy, and when USG refuses to buy such products, THEY are the bad guys

As usual, more lies from @DarioAmodei. @AnthropicAI wanted language that would prevent all @DeptofWar employees from doing a LinkedIn search! Then, they wanted to stop DoW from using any *PUBLIC* database that would enable us to, eg., recruit military services members or hire new employees. When I called to discuss cutting off @DeptofWar from using publicly available information would hurt our military readiness, @DarioAmodei didn't have the courage to answer. Then put out another lie that no one from @DeptofWar reached out in Anthropic's post a few hours later. He wants to play God and make new 'law' and...really stupid laws at that. We agreed, IN WRITING, to act according to the "National Security Act of 1947 and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 and ALL OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS." They wanted the word "pursuant" versus "consistent with" and wanted to delete ALL APPLICABLE LAWS which was less protective of Americans (can't make this up!) We never asked for guardrails to be taken out (lie!). We agreed to human oversight of all weapons systems by saying "The Department of War will use the AI system for all lawful use cases, in accordance, with applicable U.S. law and Department of War directives, including those governing kinetic operations and DoD Directive 30000.09...The Department AFFRIMS that it will ensure appropriate human oversight is in place and that it will monitor and retain the ability to override or disable the AI system...as appropriate." He didn't like "as appropriate." He would prefer "inappropriate"? I even agreed to take that out. He knows it, his investors, customers and employees should know about his lies. Risking the safety and security of our country and our troops are a marketing vehicle for him. Make @DarioAmodei testify UNDER OATH on why he is lying and trying to bring shame on our great military! He would rather violate the chain of command and substitute his own policies (or those of the Anthropic Constitution and the Anthropic Soul) to recruit researchers and get some downloads all while we are in the midst of a battle.

What country would give woke AI executives the power to determine how a war is fought? That this discussion is even happening is lunacy.

Spot on SF techbros are the most arrogant bunch in world history and believe they are summoning a tech God and should have absolute discretion over how their tech is employed by their home government Completely ignorant. The government will never permit another sovereign entity to exist on its soil and will nip this insurrection in the bud

The 10 year treasury is flirting with sub 4%. Mortgage rates fell below 6% for 1st time in 3 years. Inflation per truflation is below 1% Unemployment is less than expected and around 4.3% The budget deficit is lower than expected Income tax returns are running 15% higher than last year. The stock market is flirting with record highs Company profits are at records Net migration is negative The southern border is secure Foreign investment at record highs due to tariffs. Prescription drug prices are falling thanks to Trump's MFN State farm is reducing auto insurance premiums by 10% Home prices are falling. Consumer spending is steady Grocery prices are steady or falling Gasoline is below $2.50 in many states Wages are increasing Cartels are imploding Illegal truck drivers are being cleared from the road. Crime is down. Military recruitment is at record highs. Corruption is being addressed. Stop dooming, if you are, the present is great and the future looks even better.

I will always tell the American people the truth. Pesticides and herbicides are toxic by design, engineered to kill living organisms. When we apply them across millions of acres and allow them into our food system, we put Americans at risk. Chemical manufacturers have paid tens of billions of dollars to settle cancer claims linked to their products, and many agricultural communities report elevated cancer rates and chronic disease. Unfortunately, our agricultural system depends heavily on these chemicals. The U.S. represents 4% of the world’s population, yet we use roughly 25% of its pesticides. If these inputs disappeared overnight, crop yields would fall, food prices would surge, and America would experience a massive loss of farms even beyond what we are witnessing today. The consequences would be disastrous. I support President Trump’s Executive Order to bring agricultural chemical production back to the United States and end our near-total reliance on adversarial nations. His EO protects two pillars of national strength: our defense readiness and our food supply. When hostile actors control critical inputs, they directly threaten the security of the American people. The Trump administration will secure these supply chains to eliminate that vulnerability. President Trump did not build our current system — he inherited it. For decades, Washington designed modern agriculture. Policymakers wrote farm policy, directed research dollars, structured subsidies and crop insurance, and shaped commodity markets to reward monocultures and maximum yield. Those deliberate choices locked farmers into chemical dependence and prioritized short-term output over long-term soil vitality and human health. We are now changing course — without destabilizing the food supply. Alongside @USDA @SecRollins, we are accelerating the transition to regenerative agriculture by expanding farming systems that rebuild soil, increase biodiversity, improve water retention, and reduce reliance on synthetic chemicals, including pre-harvest desiccation. We are also driving the rapid adoption of next-generation technologies, including laser-guided weed control, electrothermal and electrical systems, robotics, precision mechanical cultivation, and biological controls that replace blanket spraying with precision intervention. These solutions are not theoretical. Farmers are already putting them to work. Markets are scaling them. Now the federal government will act with urgency to expand their reach and accelerate adoption nationwide. I have met with hundreds of farmers and agricultural leaders across the country. They understand the pressures firsthand. Chemical inputs cut into margins. Chemical-resistant pests are spreading. Soil health is declining. Foreign markets are shutting out American produce. Farmers want workable alternatives, and they want policies that support transition without threatening their livelihoods. At HHS, I am leading a coordinated effort grounded in gold standard science. I am working with Secretary Rollins and @EPALeeZeldin to expedite a better future where a thriving agricultural system is less dependent on harmful chemicals. We are sharing data, coordinating strategy, and supporting farmers through a practical transition. The Make America Healthy Again agenda forces us to challenge long-standing assumptions about how we grow food, structure markets, and measure success in this country. Reform at this scale will test entrenched interests, and it will not move in a straight line. President Trump has opened the door to this debate and backed meaningful change — not only in policy, but in the national conversation about health and agriculture. American farmers stand at the center of this movement. They deserve policies rooted in rigorous science and economic reality. Our children deserve a food system that protects and strengthens their health. With President Trump’s leadership, we are securing critical supply chains, confronting the health risks embedded in our current system, and deploying every available tool to build a stronger, safer, more resilient American food supply.

So anyway, last night I was sitting around, and a politician called me. She told me to get a pen and write down what she wants me to put in the NYT about her, in response to widespread criticism. So I wrote it down and put it in the paper, while adding my own defenses of her.

This is the best video on X right now. Nothing else even comes close.

They’re flying in immigrants to vote b/c they reneged on all the promises they made to African Americans & can no longer get the African American vote by default. They’re causing distractions in the streets to distract from the billions they stole from tax payers.

Yesterday, @ICEgov arrested multiple child pedophiles and violent assailants. These are the criminal illegal aliens we’re getting off the streets and OUT OF OUR COUNTRY every single day. Arrests yesterday include:

Put headphones on so you can get the full experience. Then you can see how absolutely cucked the people are who fell for still image screen shots.

🇺🇸 This was the response to Charlie Kirk’s assassination: Peaceful gatherings and prayers Now compare this to that’s happening in Minnesota…
