This is Trump’s Watergate.
Today, the @nytimes released a truly stunning report on the Epstein cover-up by the White House.
Collusion, breaking the law, evading subpoenas—it’s all in there:
- Trump quashing the files
- The VP, COS, DOJ, FBI, and others colluding in the Situation Room to stop their release and compliance
- Officials lying to the public
- Admin in-fighting and exits
- Officials who appeared in front of Congress during this time

Let’s keep in mind that the longer you use AI, the more diminished your own human-brain becomes at creating and problem-solving independently. Meaning, you’ll eventually NEED the tool the more that you rely on it in your professional and personal life.
Let’s also note that Sam Altman’s original declaration was that OpenAI was a harmless non-profit meant to create a version of ChatGPT that would benefit all of humanity, while never charging a dime. Sam specifically emphasized that the tool would be powerful and whoever wielded control of it needed to have the highest level of morality and ethics, with no personal desires for power or money. He used this same pitch to convince the geniuses of the world to build the tool for him. They believed him and agreed.
Here we are now, just 10 years later. I hope people are paying attention.
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
