Our country is at real economic competitiveness risk. Our manufacturing base is shrinking relative to China. We have lost the global auto industry. AI eliminates software vendor moats, and Now we are starting to lose AI. 6 of the top 10 AI models in the world are Chinese, and they are cheap. We cannot open the strait of hormuz. Our infrastructure is brittle. These are all signals of a declining power. We need a Sputnik moment to wake us up. Let’s get going. Time to rally.

Two reports from @SamLyman33 and @bitcoinpolicy document a coordinated foreign influence campaign against American AI — running through CCP state media, a Shanghai-based Marxist's nonprofit network, and foreign billionaire dark money that has funneled $2B+ into US advocacy infrastructure.

AI doomerism isn't as organic as it looks.

@garryslist @SamLyman33 @bitcoinpolicy China plays a tough game

[Garry's List @garryslist]

The PSL's finances are exempt from public reporting — meaning whether China or foreign actors are funding this nationwide mobilization is invisible to the public.

Americans have real concerns about data centers. But the movement amplifying those concerns has foreign fingerprints all over it.

Our company is experiencing this first hand as we build growth infrastructure. Our country’s adversaries are weaponizing our own citizens to block mission critical infrastructure. We need to rally

I am starting to think we might need tort reform. Almost every billboard is a playoff attorney advertising big wins. What happened to beer ads?

Silicon Valley Bank’s shareholders and executives lose it all, as they should. Depositors in good faith, however, should recover and have access to their deposits in order to meet their payrolls, pay their suppliers, and to prevent contagion.

This is pathetic- just pulled off a United flight to ATX because of a Covid outbreak in the ATX control tower. The control tower is closed for cleaning and our flight is now hosed. So much for science in control towers.

Howdy folks - BuildGroup jumped into the SPAC world last week. We can deliver a long term shareholder base and operational support for a new public company. Let us know if you think we're a fit for you. https://t.co/468Cpbwrr1
