Not sure how Newsnight on CNN managed to find even less compelling Republican talking heads than Scott Jennings, but here we are

A couple points on this manifesto, apart from the racial superiority subtext others noted.

Palantir is a company built on public contracts, they bill the state billions to surveil and target the state's population. The manifesto exists to justify their demand for even more.

Not today, Satan breakfast

It’s nice to know that their core argument behind most progressive policies (to wit: NO BECAUSE GOD) doesn’t apply when they can get Joe Rogan to mug for an Oval Office photo op. Good data point for future debates.

Counterpoint: take the most worn-out underwear you have on trips, wear them and throw them out when you’re done with them. And FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, don’t wash them in the damn tea kettle, you sick freaks.

Correct: 250ft for the arch vs. 555 for the Washington Monument.

Almost 90ft taller than the Arc de Triomphe, though.

This man is 80% rizz by volume

It's not like it requires a lot of improvement to just not say one word. It doesn't just come flying out unbidden.

Here's the article which includes the actual interview in question. Yes, he absolutely said this and yes, it's in context.

MAGA Catholics pleading at the Pearly Gates: but look at his RECORD OF RESULTS

Stefanik is Trump's personal chew toy. She's happy to be disgraced by him over and over again and just pops right up and cheers him on.

Find some dignity, Elise. Somewhere.

I went down into a rabbit hole of financial statements and I've concluded they paid $39M for a ticker symbol they would not otherwise be able to get, which allowed them to do this. I have my suspicions about what they need this capital for, but suffice to say I don't think it's gonna buy m/any GPUs.

Derivatives of derivatives of derivatives.

That’s never bitten us in the ass before

Allbirds engaged in a pumps and dump scheme. You’re welcome.

I feel like where we’re heading is just people starting “businesses” that do nothing and make nothing but look attractive to VC long enough for a rug pull, and that’s the only genuinely profitable startup model. Cargo cult capitalism.

Anthropic has basically adopted the pricing model that was hanging in every 1980s car mechanic's waiting room

Every day the news reminds you that everything sucks and is more expensive unless you’re in AI, where you’ll be given as much money and told you’re the most special person alive. I can imagine it tearing at a person’s soul as the world beats them down. What they did was a disgraceful act of violence. Unstable people in various stages of torment act in erratic and dangerous ways. The suspect in the molotov cocktail incident apparently had a manifesto where he had listed the names and addresses of both Altman and multiple other AI executives, and, per CNBC, discussed the threat of AI to humanity as a justification for his actions. I am genuinely happy to hear that this person was apprehended without anyone being hurt. These actions are morally wrong, and are also the direct result of the AI industry’s deceptive and manipulative scare campaign, one promoted by men like Altman and Amodei, as well as doomer fanfiction writers like Yudowsky, and, of course, Daniel Kokotajlo of AI 2027 — both of whom have had their work validated and propagated via the New York Times. On the subject of “dangerous rhetoric,” I think we need to reckon with the fact that the mainstream media has helped spread harmful propaganda, and that a lack of scrutiny of said propaganda is causing genuine harm.

The man who threw a molotov cocktail at Sam Altman's house was partially inspired by AI doomer propaganda promoted by the mainstream media and Altman himself. Both the media and AI labs must stop platforming this kind of dangerous rhetoric.

If there is not a pizza-related promotion in Fenway Park next April 14 in honor of the 20th anniversary of Here Comes the Pizza, I really don’t know what the Red Sox marketing team is doing.

Did you know: There's HD video of Here Comes The Pizza?

Fun fact: this guy was an AI doomer, and they’re about as leftist as Ayn Rand.

“It's a shame that the Pope has made the Catholic Church political” is one of the most amazing sentences ever uttered by a politician. Elite stuff. Arguably the most wrong a person could be, including rejecting basic arithmetic.

A reminder that as Americans we pay double per capita for healthcare than every developed nation on Earth, AND have the lowest life expectancy. We're getting robbed & bled literally to death by the exploitative for profit system we have.

We demand universal healthcare as a human right. Period.

Mexico—a nation with 1/17th GDP of USA—is rolling out universal healthcare to its 130M citizens.

Starting April 13, Mexicans 85+ will have access to universal healthcare. By Jan 2027, Mexico will expand universal healthcare to all people, with full coverage of drugs, lab tests, etc by 2030.
