What I’ll call AI-Plus having received nigh zero scrutiny from our elected officials?
Is getting it in droves from the voting public.

Pat Buchanan, 1999:
“By moving NATO onto Russia’s front porch, we have scheduled a twenty-first century confrontation. … America will face a hellish dilemma: risk confrontation with a nuclear-armed Russia determined to recreate its old sphere of influence, or renege on solemn commitments and see NATO collapse.”
Therefore, he said, “Offering NATO memberships to Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and, as some urge, Ukraine is rashness bordering on madness.” Referring to maps the Clinton team must have ignored, Buchanan warned, “This would put the Russian base at Kaliningrad behind NATO lines and bring into a U.S.-led alliance three nations with huge Russian minorities.” Foreseeing future conflict, he observed that “Latvia is almost half Russian; eastern Ukraine, almost entirely Russian. America could neither defend nor liberate these nations without the risk of nuclear war.”

Once Again, I'm not voting for dems.
I'm just not voting.
I don't reward betrayal, so GOP will not get my vote.
Rewarding them by continuing to vote for them, no matter how much they lied, backtracked and reversed policies would ensure they NEVER change.
I WILL NOT DO THAT!
Rufus turns 13 next month.
He’s just as tiny as he’s always been. But he’s beginning to show the signs of age - that we all do.
Including losing a little off his vertical leap. There are times he walks up to things upon which he used to fly - and he’ll instead stop and wait for me to lift him.
But his metaphorical heart remains young and vibrant.
This morning I was kneeling next to our recliner. Waiting for him to jump upon it - for our morning petting ritual.
He didn’t make it up. So I instinctively reached to lift him.
He refused my assistance.
He instead backed away from my hand - and to get a better running start. And then made another, successful run at the jump.
5.6 pounds of dog. With two tons of rhetorical cardiovascular muscle.
I’m really glad he’s here.
In the first week of the US’s unilateral Iran war - the US killed more Iranian elementary school girls?
Than Iran has killed Americans in the last 47 years.
