We’re dividing. Segregating. This is the build up. The next 20 years will completely change this country (or to-be 2 countries). - Both sides have always gerrymandered - Both sides are now extremely gerrymandering, believing they have to because the other side is - Blue states are back-door trying to make the electoral college not relevant. - SCOTUS is heavy red, heavily favoring the GOP - Blue states are poised to ignore SCOTUS because of it - States (both sides) pass there own laws directing their law enforcement to ignore federal laws when federal agencies are in command by the opposite party - Representation will be fully partisan in a couple of years - This will be too much for voters. Red voters in fully blue controlled and gerrymandered states will move to red states. Blue state voters will do the same to blue states Willful segregation. - Intra-state coalitions will be formed (trade, economic frameworks, shared resources, ignoring federal regs, laws, rulings, etc.) - Strength will be in numbers: the more states who join the coalition, the less of a threat the other side (or federal) will be. - Congressional (legislative) laws will be ignored (they have no power to enforce) - Judicial laws will be ignored (they have no power to enforce) - Executive enforcement can only be ignored (they have enforcement power and bodies), once coalitions are built enough to withstand. - Executive branch enforcement will be limited to what the current party in power feels like enforcing. No one standard across the board. - Political opponents will be targeted executively, but protected by the state coalitions. - Eventually, deep blue and deep red states will be fully populated as such, easily noticeable boundaries between the two major sides. - State coalitions will stop their residents from paying federal taxes, protecting them legally and physically - Trade deals between coalitions and supporting foreign entities will commence. - The power of the combined 3 branches of government will become obsolete on a large scale. - Lines will be drawn, the split will be on None of this would require any actual secession from anyone one state. Nor any real shots fired. The US splits, naturally, slowly, figuratively at first then literally, until there’s two ruling sides. It’s breaking.

57% of people polled said it’s not negative if Trump was assassinated. Wow.
Replying to @StratPolitics
We polled five routes for Trump to leave office before the end of his term. A plurality of Dems support four of them, including a military coup and death by natural causes. The only one underwater, an assassination, is still supported by 29%.

Gas prices got your panties in a bunch? See the average in your state compared to others. Also, see how much your state adds to your cost of a gallon of gas, via state taxes. Pause and find... How high are your state gas taxes?

Poverty and crime. The general belief is that poverty creates crime. But it’s the other way around: Crime creates poverty. We’ve been addressing this correlation the wrong way, and it hasn’t worked.

My wife filmed this from our driveway at 7:28pm today. DC area, facing southwest. Grok said it’s not a meteor because of how long the burning lasted. Probably a satellite or satellite debris re-entering. (starlink?) Pretty cool. It fell from west -> south west. This was the second one she saw, so she filmed it.

SMDH at Congress. How are our elected leaders so gullible?? These AI companies don’t need regulation to make sure they don’t develop AI that kills us all. They could simply do that themselves. This is a monopolization strategy. You think Congress is even able to write such legislation? They know nothing about AI. It’ll be these guys, and the CEOs of BigAi that will write this legislation, effectively blocking any and all competition from the market. A 5th grader can see this. But our Congress cannot.
If Elon, Sam Altman and Dario Amodei are all on board the slowdown really has a chance to save us all from calamity. Time to follow through.

I was 18. I had just started my first semester of college. I grew up in Florida and had no family or friends in NY or DC. But we instantly felt it as if we were there. I’m don’t even know how to articulate what that moment did. The entire country was proverbially frozen with jaws locked open. We were crushed, all of us, internally. In that moment, the terrorists had won. Everyone across the country was scared it was also going to happen where they are. An overall state of emergency, stay in doors, parents fleeing from work, kids from school. If you’re not old enough to have been there or at least remember it, I’m telling you it was like nothing you’ve ever seen. No one knew if this was isolated or an all out attack/take over. BUT, on the flip side, the weeks following 9/11 were also like nothing anyone alive today has ever seen before. Just like I cannot put in words how we felt when the planes hit, I also can’t put in words how absolutely united we all were afterward. Politics, sports, my gang vs your gang, black, white, brown, none of that mattered. And it wasn’t just rhetoric. Every house, business, building, etc started putting up American flags. Blame game was non-existent in the media. It was all about how to overcome and make sure this never happens again. How to wipe our tears and stand strong, in unity. Blue states and red states hand-in-hand. An entire nation, united in defense of itself. For me, personally, I left college after 9/11 and joined the Army. Been in DoD ever since. I didn’t join out of anger, or wanting to go blow things up. I joined because I wanted to be part of making sure this never happened again. I wanted to actively engage in the defense of our country and loved ones. I was 18. I knew I couldn’t single-handedly change the world, but I understood immediately that as a united country, we could 100%, collectively, change the world and ensure no one has to suffer this type of attack again, ever. I sincerely wish we could get back to the unity that event brought us in the following months. In a way, those who lost their lives that day, left in service of this country, as it brought us together at a level not seen since the revolutionary war. That should be part of the honoring of the ones we lost on that day. And while we go on bickering about policies and our differences, everyone should spend today in honor and in realization that what happened that day united us in a way that goes beyond our differences, making sure something like this will NEVER happen again. #NeverForget

Not to be a conspiracy theorist but.. I believe this was calculated and done on purpose. His next (and only second) post will be about the launch of his podcast/YouTube show (or both). Here was have a guy (Jacob Coxon) that quit or lost his job, and decided to go full on fear mongering (we’re all going to die) on AI, I believe for clicks. Goes from 0 posts to hundreds of millions of views and hundred of thousands of followers over night. No detail. Just a threat. A fear monger on a topic everyone WANTS to fear. My guess is the next post from him will be to announce his show/podcast about AI research and talk. To me, this is all preemptive. Quit or lost his job, what to do next? How about pseudo fame in the YouTube and podcast space? And by this tweet, he preemptively built his viewer base. Explain the how, Jacob. Make the claim, give the details..? Let me guess, he’ll give all the details (with loads of filler) on his pod. Don’t hate the player, hate the game. But understand it’s a game.

lol No one is getting $5,000 stimulus checks. However, this is not “bribery” in an ‘against the law’ sense that Dems are now claiming This is campaigning. “Vote for me for free healthcare!” “Vote for me for $1,000/mo UBI!” Etc. That’s what campaigning is - here’s what I can do for you, so vote for me!

LINDSAY says Patrick told her. The same woman who also said she heard voices telling her to do it. The same woman who now claims she was in psychosis. Maybe she remembers doing it. But “Patrick told me” is an easy out. She’s either a lying criminal or mentally crazy, so how can you blindly believe her when she says “because Patrick said.” ?
I just want a proper investigation before a woman goes to prison for the rest of her life. Patrick Clancy was never investigated. The crime scene was never investigated. The cup with the “crushed powder” was never tested. Everything was based on what Patrick said.

Ladies.. When a man says he’s going to do something, he’s going to do it. No need to remind him about it every 6 months.

Normal people: “this is abuse. Jail this man.” Lindsay Clancy supporters: “this man was in a state of drunken psychosis. His actions were not his fault. Probably a lie anyway. She probably attacked herself and staged it to look like he attacked her. He doesn’t remember doing it!”
🇺🇸 A bar camera in Louisville, Kentucky caught a date turning violent. The clip appears to show her reaching for his drink first and then getting physical with him. He responds by splashing the drink in her face, shoving her to the floor, and kicking at her as she tries to get back up 😳 Writer: Sol
