@molly0xFFF 1/ to quote Herzog, "everyone for themselves and God against all." When will people realize that federation doesn't work without an economic model of incentives and disincentives that promote interoperability, sharing, quality, redistribution of wealth, universal access, etc...
@BudWiserKnows@wartranslated Subpoena him. Grill him deeply on history/economy of Ukraine/Donbas. Fun fact, in 2004 Long Way Around book describes shady Russian mafia owning mines in Donbas. In black and white, extensive detail.
@PeteButtigieg As former Transit secretary he should focus 100% on autonomous mass transit and micro Mobility solutions. We need to get the cost down and availability up. That will help 100% of the population.
@brianbeutler@GregTSargent This is time Dems have to listen to the mandate of the people and go for the jugular in unified and vocal fashion. Focus on 5 R States with most tenuous incumbents in each of next two elections. Will vote with Dems. No deviation. Use all weapons hard in reverse order in article.
@Handre Or perhaps it was the confluence of geopolitical and financial forces in the region and its unique position of being a relatively open trading place? But that was its downfall too.
@TheMaineWonk Get rid of Citizens United. And PACs. We need term limits Congress 4yr terms x3. Senate 6x2. All federall judges 18yrs. And we need 2yr universal service (any kind) for 18 yr olds. Only way to save this media dominated, polarized, and institutionally broken nation.
OBAMA on IRAN WAR: Meanwhile, you've got the defense secretary who's squarely focused on the jawlines and testosterone levels of our troops. How much time do you think this Defense Secretary spends looking at himself in the mirror in the morning?
@samhaselby Is it dumb smarts or smart dumb? Internet 1.0 was a grift by offering free, SocMed was a grift, crypto was a grift, AI is the latest grift. But this generation doesn't know anything else.
@retserofer@DarioAmodei@_NathanCalvin A system or network without incentives and disincentives, properly developed, is the wrong approach. We've seen this with Internet 1.0, social media, crypto, and we're seeing it now with AI.
Abdul El-Sayed is just really really good at this.
Republicans fear him because they fear how far he can go.
The GOP has no really good young candidates. The Democrats do.
