Donald Trump promised to end wars and to release the files.

He delivered bombs on children and protections for their abusers.

DONALD TRUMP HAS BETRAYED AMERICA!

[Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein]

Trump is asking Congress for the biggest counterterrorism budget in years to implement NSPM-7, the national security directive targeting "anti-Americanism," "anti-Christianity" and "anti-capitalism"

The craziest part about Donald Trump sending ICE to airports is that he raped kids with Jeffrey Epstein

Actual jacked dude: “both running and lifting are great. Just focus on one thing at a time 👍.”

This is wild.

143 million people thought they were catching Pokémon. They were actually building one of the largest real-world visual datasets in AI history.

Niantic just disclosed that photos and AR scans collected through Pokémon Go have produced a dataset of over 30 billion real-world images. The company is now using that data to power visual navigation AI for delivery robots.

Players didn't just walk around with their phones. They scanned landmarks, storefronts, parks, and sidewalks from every angle, at every time of day, in lighting and weather conditions that staged photography would never capture. They documented the physical world at a scale no mapping company with a fleet of vehicles could have replicated on the same timeline or budget.

Niantic collected this systematically, data point by data point, across eight years, while users thought the only thing at stake was catching a rare Charizard.

The most valuable AI training datasets in the world aren't being assembled in data centers. They're being built by people who have no idea they're building them.

@SenValladares Wow when I voted for you, I thought you were an intelligent, level headed person looking to bring balance to the state Senate. Instead you tweet like a party pandering moron. California does need to push for energy independence, but not at the cost of the land itself.

[Wally Rashid @wallyrashid]

The US government is going to commit a terrorist attack in California to justify boots on the ground.

Everyone can see it, everyone knows it, and these psychopaths will still do it anyway.

Our government is planning on killing us.

@Callum_TH Right wing is when you appease Boomers by taking things from young people. Left wing is when you appease Boomers by giving things to old people. You need both perspectives in government.

"Immigrants are going to replace our culture!"

What culture is that, exactly?

Is it the Iowa State Fair? Seeing the Hawkeyes play the Cyclones on Saturday night? Eating pork chops on a stick? Church choirs volunteering to help rebuild homes after a tornado?
Is it barbacoa on Sunday morning before mass and your little girl's quinceañera? Or accordion-driven Tejano music playing from a pickup truck?
Is it moms dropping their kids off for Calabasas ballet in Range Rovers and Teslas? Lululemon and Vuori? Angry meetings about fence heights at the HOA?
Is it salsa coming through open windows on hot days? Folding chairs gathered around a domino game? Puerto Rican and American flags everywhere to honor Marines coming home?
Is it Southern comfort food at Mary Mac's Tea Room? Morehouse and Spelman grads meeting to network? Southern rap blasting at Magic City?

People afraid of being "replaced" have too narrow a view of what America is about. And yes, America can include a statue of the Hindu god Hanuman in Houston. (Because, c'mon, what is more over-the-top Texan than a 90-foot golden statue of a dude wielding a huge bad-ass club?)

My American culture doesn't discriminate based on ethnic background. My American culture is one that can deal with immigrants because it embraces their myriad varieties. My American culture holds dear democracy, freedom, and independence.

My America believes in self-governance, from jury rooms, where 12 strangers gather to decide a fellow citizen's fate, to town halls, to local elections, to national campaigns. It's watching locals grill an annoyed city council about a new park or too much crime downtown.

My America believes in free speech so much that we put it at the top of the Bill of Rights. I get to call my leaders idiots and feel no fear of prison or punishment. I believe in allowing marches and protests, from the good ones (Selma and Stonewall) to the ones I dislike (Proud Boys or Antifa).

My America is proud to see rows of new citizens lined up at city hall, with many different skin tones but the same expression of hope and anticipation. Because my America is Ronald Reagan's America, "still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home."

So it's ok if some people march in a St Patrick's Day parade while others celebrate the Vietnamese (Tet) New Year, as long as they are all committed to freedom, democracy, the Constitution, and this amazing thing called "America."

I understand why Bad Bunny is divisive because he primarily appeals to people who fuck

[Career Day - End-Times Emo @careerdayny]

I thought Bad Bunny shouting out all of the Americas was kinda beast but let me go to Facebook and see what people who never left my hometown have to say.

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

MAGA truly are the biggest snowflakes. They cry over Bad Bunny, they cry over American athletes speaking out, they cry over Disney movies. I mean they are insufferable, sensitive, and perpetually unhappy.

In other words, they’re losers.

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, love for others" and some people automatically know that's a statement against them
