It took decades for Apple to build up the workforce and infrastructure in China, and now that they’ve done so, they’re getting cut out by Chinese companies.
If Bill had pushed for this in the 90s it might have actually done something, but trump and people like him were donating millions at the time so neoliberals would offshore these jobs for cheaper end products and higher profit margins.
This won’t do shit.
Are we not even going to mention the fact that it’s not very good?
Whether or not you find AI impressive, depends on your own intellect and ability.
Someone with an IQ of 71 is going to think it’s the greatest thing ever and if anyone doesn’t agree, it’s because they don’t understand yet.
Because their frame of reference is an IQ of 71.
For someone with a completely middle of the road IQ if 100, it’s still a useless chatbot.
It’s why the more someone likes AI, the harder it is to explain to them why it’s actually shit. If you’re stupid enough. AI is smarter than you, and really is better than you doing something.
“Instead of confronting those challenges, some of our colleagues have fled the state in their duty,” Burrows said. “They’ve left the state, abandoned their posts and turned their backs on the constituents they swore to represent. They’ve shirked their responsibilities under the direction and pressure of out-of-state politicians and activists who don’t know the first thing about what’s right for Texas.”
Just wait till here he hears about this guy named Rafeal Cruz…
The actual article instead of the live feed:

It bears repeating Everytime…
The Los Angeles patrols date back to 1992, after the riots that erupted when officers were acquitted of brutally beating Rodney King
It was a peaceful protest, but it was in “white neighborhoods”, so the cops kettled them and instigated violence. They literally beat the protesters back out of the white areas to the nearest minority area, with was K-town.
Once the protesters were riled up and away from white people, the police, fire, and medical emergency services refused to respond to any are that wasn’t a white neighborhood. And you’re probably think I meant that in the moment, they refused to respond for days.
Because the protestors had a point and this would make the American public not listen to them.
For some reason that bit isn’t common knowledge yet.
Despite cities/cops still using this exact strategy.
Donald Trump has said that he has deployed nuclear-capable submarines to the “appropriate regions” in response to a threatening tweet by Russia’s former president Dmitry Medvedev, suggesting that he would be ready to launch a nuclear strike as tensions rise over the war in Ukraine.
For a second I thought he was really dumb enough to not have them out to sea…
But:
They can launch from anywhere, you don’t want to be close to what you’re nuking.
Saying he’s moving them is a giant fucking problem.
Russia is fucking dying to know what a SSBN sounds like, and they’re sure as shit going to be listening because they know where/when they’re going and Trump’s dumb enough to drive right to the coast.
This is a giant fuckup, like could potentially compromise our nuclear response capabilities for decades bad.
And what’s worse is we won’t know if Russia finds out or not what an SSBN sounds like.
Billionaires and their neoliberals lapdogs want progressives to tune out from the party
That’s why Kamala is saying this shit.
They don’t have the DNC in their pocket anymore, so they’re doing everything they can think of to depress Dem.primary turnout and convince people the party is useless.
It’s the only way a neoliberals has a shot in a fair primary.
Don’t do what the billionaires want, no matter what happens keep voting in Dem primaries.
Specifically, the State Department denounced the PA and PLO for seeking to “internationalize its conflict with Israel” by seeking relief at the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice.
They’re mad two sovereign nations are using the systems for sovereign nations to resolve things diplomatically?
It also accused the PA and PLO of “continuing to support terrorism including incitement and glorification of violence” and “providing payments and benefits in support of terrorism to Palestinian terrorists and their families”.
I mean, Israel’s government not only solicited funding for Hamas for years, they organized a system to move literal suitcases if cash thru their borders…

So…
Why isn’t the people who literally funded terrorists included?
Harris, 60, who previously served as California’s attorney general and US senator
Normalize a sensible retirement age for politicians.
She’s going to try and run for prez again claiming “if I had a full campaign I’d have won”.
Fighting fascism is a lifelong fight, but let the young lead, they’ve got the most to lose.
You know what really makes teenagers convert to your side politically?
Fucking anything besides forced indoctrination…
Kids that age are thirsty for something to rebel about, Republicans made gains due to neoliberals ineptitude on social issues. Now bitching about “cancel culture” isn’t rebelling, but being against genocide is.
I’ve thought for a while the only thing that could motivate her was they threatened to Epstein her if she doesn’t…
Which would explain why one of her conditions is doing it outside of prison.
Shed know if she said what Trump wants, she’s a loose end as soon as she’s free. But dead if she doesn’t.
Her one chance is to get outside the prison system, and just fucking flat out say all of that to Congress on live TV. Say trump threatened to kill her and frame it as a suicide and that if she goes back into the prison system and dies it’s murder.
Like, her dad was a legit spy that she’s always said got whacked when the official story was heart attack. She literally grew up in this shit, she’s an evil despicable person, but she knows the game.
She’s up against the trump admin after all, it’s like beating Wiley Coyote. There’s a very real chance shit gets crazy. And whatever happens trump will handle it in the worst possible way.
Like. Imagine if he pulls the plug on cspan right after she says it? A couple minutes due to incompetence and then it cuts out for everyone to assume the worst.
Markus wrote that their initial reaction to the subpoena was that “Maxwell would invoke her Fifth Amendment rights and decline to testify at this time.”
Double edge sword.
Say she gets immunity for any additional crimes disclosed during deposition, that means she can no longer take the fifth, because nothing she said would implicate herself.
So if someone asked her:
Did you assist trump raping kids?
She would have to admit it, or commit perjury, which she could still be charged with. Those are the only two options.
And if trump actually listens to a lawyer, he’ll never let it happen. Who the fuck knows what she’ll say. Like, regardless of if she does what trump wants or not, she’s likely to be dead in a year tops. And that’s only if they’re that patient so it doesn’t look obvious
Usually people plead not guilty. Then eventually admit guilt…
Not often someone proactively admits guilt to multiple murders then pleads non-guilty
