Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicit—joining their war instead of talking them down

This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.

[Hasanabi Productions (fan account) @HasanabiProd]

Hasan responds to the Iranian diaspora celebrating their own country being bombed, as hundreds of Iranians are now dead from U.S. airstrikes

"I can't go back to Turkey.. because I am critical of the Erdogan regime... but no matter how much I hate Erdogan...You will never see me defend U.S. intervention in Turkey, it is fkn disgusting."

"How can you see, your countrymen/women die, directed by the American state and then think this is gonna lead to a positive result? Insanity"

This bitch is celebrating the death of American military members and thanking their families for their blood sacrifice.

Loomer lost two Congressional races bc nobody respected her or valued her enough to elect her.

But this is who Trump takes late night calls from and laps up her praise and worship.

Loomer hated Charlie Kirk bc he spoke out against war with Iran the same way I do.

War with Iran is AMERICA LAST and we voted against it the same way voters voted against Laura Loomer twice!

And now Americans are once again coming home in flag draped coffins from another stupid pointless foreign war for foreign regime change on behalf of Israel.

And Laura Loomer demanded it and begged for it.

Sign up for the military, Laura! Go to the front lines, Laura! Maybe then they’ll give you a gun.

You don’t love Trump enough unless you go fight Iran yourself.

not to alarm anyone but is anyone else worried about how fucking stupid everyone is ??

Imagine if a woman running a company that earns billions from government contracts showed up at an investor meeting wearing a t-shirt with unbrushed hair and then, while gesturing like a meth addict, celebrated killing people.

A genuine email in the newly released Epstein files reveals Mira Nair, Zohran Mamdani's mum, attended a party at Ghislaine Maxwell's house in 2009 for her film Amelia alongside Jeff Bezos and Bill Clinton.

A parody X account called "DumbFckFinder" creates an AI-generated image of a young Zohran Mamdani and his mum next to Jeffrey Epstein, Maxwell, Bezos, Clinton and Gates for the lolz and even leaves a DFF watermark right in the middle of it.

An X user asks Grok whether the obviously AI-generated image is genuine, and Grok incorrectly claims that it is.

Alex Jones and several other major right-wing accounts then claim the fake image is bombshell news from the Epsiten files and even go a step further to claim it is evidence that Mamdani might actually be Epstein's son.

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.

$30 per seat per month.

$1.4 million annually.

I called it "digital transformation."

The board loved that phrase.

They approved it in eleven minutes.

No one asked what it would actually do.

Including me.

I told everyone it would "10x productivity."

That's not a real number.

But it sounds like one.

HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.

I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."

They stopped asking.

Three months later I checked the usage reports.

47 people had opened it.

12 had used it more than once.

One of them was me.

I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.

It took 45 seconds.

Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.

But I called it a "pilot success."

Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.

The CFO asked about ROI.

I showed him a graph.

The graph went up and to the right.

It measured "AI enablement."

I made that metric up.

He nodded approvingly.

We're "AI-enabled" now.

I don't know what that means.

But it's in our investor deck.

A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.

I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."

He asked what that meant.

I said "compliance."

He asked which compliance.

I said "all of them."

He looked skeptical.

I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."

He stopped asking questions.

Microsoft sent a case study team.

They wanted to feature us as a success story.

I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."

I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.

They didn't verify it.

They never do.

Now we're on Microsoft's website.

"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."

The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.

He got 3,000 likes.

He's never used Copilot.

None of the executives have.

We have an exemption.

"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."

I wrote that policy.

The licenses renew next month.

I'm requesting an expansion.

5,000 more seats.

We haven't used the first 4,000.

But this time we'll "drive adoption."

Adoption means mandatory training.

Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.

But completion will be tracked.

Completion is a metric.

Metrics go in dashboards.

Dashboards go in board presentations.

Board presentations get me promoted.

I'll be SVP by Q3.

I still don't know what Copilot does.

But I know what it's for.

It's for showing we're "investing in AI."

Investment means spending.

Spending means commitment.

Commitment means we're serious about the future.

The future is whatever I say it is.

As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
