It seems that Confirming Warsh as Fed Chairman would be one step closer to putting another nail in the coffin of American democracy.

Thiel has repeatedly advocated for a "techno-authoritarian" model where tech leaders and a strong executive exercise significant control.

He has argued that technological progress is a superior, more efficient alternative to politics or democracy, which he often views as dysfunctional and inefficient.

Peter Thiel, co-founder of Palantir and PayPal, has expressed views that strongly favor technology, private sector innovation, and technocratic governance over traditional political processes.

Kevin Warsh would be the first tech bro Fed chair. How Silicon Valley shaped him The nominee to lead the Fed is an AI optimist who counts tech titans Peter Thiel and Marc Andreessen among his friends.

They still count him as one of their own. “You wouldn’t be hanging out with us if you were as normal as you claim to be,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp told Warsh on a podcast in 2022.

With his penchant for suits, ties and sweater vests, Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh doesn’t share the rumpled look of many of the Silicon Valley entrepreneurs he calls friends. But they still count him as one of their own. “You wouldn’t be hanging out with us if you were as normal as you claim to be,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp told Warsh on a podcast in 2022. If confirmed by the Senate, Warsh wouldn’t just be the wealthiest Fed chair in history, he would also be the most tech-savvy and the closest to the tech-bro community to ever sit in the office. Warsh’s connection to Karp and other titans of Silicon Valley such as reclusive PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, Yahoo founder Jerry Yang and prominent venture capitalist Marc Andreessen go back decades — to college at Stanford and to investments made alongside some of them beginning soon after Warsh resigned as a Fed governor in 2011.

Kevin Warsh ran a tech-focused VC fund for 15 years and counts Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen and Alex Karp among his friends. No wonder he's an AI evangelist.

Looks like everybody in the Trump administration is a junkie, a drunk, a fucking psychopath, or a pedo. Some are all of the above.

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”

We are spending billions to keep our entire navy in the Strait to fecklessly fail to open a waterway that wasn’t closed until Trump’s pointless war of choice closed it.

He’s just burning your tax money.

When the shitty Fox says something unfavorable about the government's politics, you can count on it being true!

BREAKING: New data shows ZERO oil tankers passed through the Strait of Hormuz today, signaling what appears to be a complete shutdown of the Strait for the first time in history.

The Strait normally carries about 20% of the world’s oil supply.

Trump Store sells 99 items that reference to his presidency. If someone bought one of each product, it would cost them $7,511.28. That’s a fraction of the store’s offerings, including 622 products launched since beginning his second term “to profit off the presidency.”

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United.

Harlan Crow's political contributions then went up 862%.

Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit.

But go on about how "progressivism" is a problem...

We are literally at the point in history where the Pope is battling the Antichrist. 🍿

It's karma, baby.
