If McCarthy can't get the votes, the idea of intrigues me. He has some sound ideas for improving House parliamentary procedures so that indiv. members can propose amendments again (that process has been heavily centralized in recent years).

The federal government is now funding an initiative to train AI to censor social media content. The NSF-backed program promises to "detect and intervene" in cases of "gendered microaggressions," "dehumanizing metaphors," and "disguised toxicity." Get ready: woke AI is coming.

If your representative doesn’t know what’s in the legislation—because no one can read and analyze 4,409 pages in 1.5 days—and he or she still voted yes, then by definition that person is not representing you.

You said Monica Lewinsky was a conspiracy theory and had your goons go on tv and claim she was a stalker

The Republican Party and its mouthpieces now regularly spread hate and deranged conspiracy theories. It is shocking, but not surprising, that violence is the result. As citizens, we must hold them accountable for their words and the actions that follow. latimes.com/california/sto

On this tax day, I wish I could better see and even control where the taxes I pay are going. Otherwise I feel like I'm just blindly sending money to a giant, opaque & inefficient bureaucracy. I want to be a well-informed, good citizen. Government is not making this easy for me.

Jon Stewart has said: What’s wrong with the stock market? Kind of a lot. If a bunch of Redditors buying Gamestop stock can almost blow up the stock market, maybe the problem isn’t the Redditors, but a fragile system designed to siphon money away from average investors.

Good luck to the Ukrainian people. I wish you the best, but I'm not supporting sending our young men there to die on your behalf. We'll get back to you when our own country isn't on the verge of being ripped apart at the seams.
