POLITICS
THIS REFERENCE TO TIME AND SPACE
Such a different America in the space of my lifetime.
1973 THE ENTIRE INTERNET HELD TOGETHER BY JOHN POSTEL AT
U OF P — IN A DESK DRAWER.
1976 – 2026
For Bicentennial 1976, tall ships and celebration in front of the World Trade Center:
1976 memory: The tall ships entering Newport. One was denied permission to dock: Chilean ship Esmerelda, a vessel Pinochet used for torture in his ugly takeover from Allende. Banned, but in today’s America would it be docked, even celebrated, by our current regime?
Ben Stiller @BenStiller
It was so cool. Tall ships on the Hudson. Peter Max oil paintings of the Statue of Liberty. Fireworks and excitement and just a huge big deal in New York.
1976 Valley Forge, PA on the the 4th.
President Ford was there & there was a covered wagon train, wagons from all 50 states. Very impressive.
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
2026 Can everyone just step back and realize how insane it is that the US Supreme Court had to rule on the constitutionality of the US CONSTITUTION and the vote to uphold the Constitution wasn’t unanimous!!!
On June 2, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, which was the most sweeping civil rights legislation since Reconstruction.
Today, we commemorate the signing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 !!!!!!!!
— a landmark law that helped dismantle segregation and expand equal opportunity in America.
We honor the courage of those who fought for justice and remain committed to building a more equal nation.
It’s 2026 –
why are we still allowing hate speech??
3 generations of scum
Trump A CONVICTED RAPIST
raped a 13-year-old — which once again begs the question: Why hasn’t this pedophile been removed from office?!!
President Trump is referenced in FBI interview summaries tied to a woman who accused him of sexual assault decades ago, yet three of those summaries are absent from the Justice Department’s public release of its Epstein files.
Missing Epstein Interview Files Include Allegations Against the President of the United States
Inmate P01135809
Convicted Rapist Donald Trump, High Frequency Trader.
Trump made more than 22,000 trades in 2025. Number of trades 30,000.
Imagine if Obama was directly connected to Epstein, made $2 billion off crypto scams, grifted a $400 million plane form Arab Royals, and started and lost a war with Iran.
EXPAND THE COURT
We don’t have a Supreme Court, we have the heritage foundation in 6 black robes.
Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
If a nurse gives a Senator $50 to vote for Medicare for All, it’s illegal.
But Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, spent $45 million to get Trump elected. So Trump is helping his family control:
CBS
CNN
TikTok
HBO
TNT
MTV
BET
And more
That’s a corrupt campaign finance system.
Colorado Governor Fires Officials Who Opposed Freeing Election Denier
Gov. Jared Polis commuted the sentence of Tina Peters, who tampered with voting machines in an attempt to show that the 2020 election had been rigged against President Trump.
This is a real Trumpian move. Gov. Jared Polis fired two members of his clemency board after they spoke out against his decision to commute the prison sentence of election denier Tina Peters. NYT
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The shadow docket is one problem. The other is a Supreme Court making up facts that aren’t factual, in secret, and outside proper judicial fact-finding process. They get the last say, so they just make it up. (E.g.: how is dark money transparent?)
@propublica New: We found that the Supreme Court is deciding more consequential rulings than ever before in largely unsigned orders with little to no explanation of how they voted or the reasons why.
Liz Oyer: As Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche fired me for doing my job, then subjected me and my family to months of retaliation. My story is one of many reasons the Senate should not confirm Blanche again. Read and share my letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Crooked Clarence is bought and paid for!
CLARENCE THOMAS ARGUED THE 14TH AMENDMENT WAS WRITTEN NARROWLY FOR FORMERLY ENSLAVED PEOPLE AND DOESN’T APPLY BROADLY TODAY
– USING THAT SAME LOGIC, THE 2ND AMENDMENT WAS WRITTEN FOR MUSKETS AND DOESN’T APPLY TO AR-15S,
BUT SOMEHOW HE’S NEVER MADE THAT ARGUMENT.
Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin
This is insane. You already know Trump lied about taxpayers footing the bill for his ballroom.
What you probably don’t know is that the contract to build it was yet another no-bid deal, just like the one for the reflecting pool.
The White House ran it through an office specifically exempt from the rules that are supposed to protect your money from being overspent. So not only did he lie about using your money, he skipped the one process that would have made sure you got the best price for it.
There is no version of this where that makes sense. None.

BITCOIN
TRUMP IS NOT BITCOIN.
Donald Trump didn’t make his first billion in crypto until age 80
Relax, you still have time 🙂
REMEMBER BITCOIN ISN’T LIKE THE OTHERS, ALL THE OTHERS ARE CRYPTO SHITCOINS.

Apple ‘Hide My Email’ Vulnerability Reveals Peoples’ Real Email Addresses
”Hide My Email users deserve to know that it may be possible for attackers to discover their hidden email addresses,” the person who reported the issue said.

GitHub shipped bulk credential revocation for Enterprise.
One action cuts off compromised credentials across the entire org during an active incident.
Recent attacks have shown what happens when revocation is slow or incomplete. The Trivy compromise came back for a second round because the first cleanup left at least one credential alive. Incomplete rotation is what keeps attacks going after the initial breach.
Alex Karp a Jewish executive and the CEO of Palantir Technologies
WAS born in New York City and raised in Philadelphia, with his paternal family originally from Germany, Jewish father and African American mother.
Alex Karp is deeply disturbed. This company needs to be removed from every computer paid for by taxpayers. It is fascist metastatic cancer trying to replace the government.
If Democrats need an issue to run on, curing America of Palantir is a very good one.
Watch KARP be insane!
– Do you think Trump is a fascist – NO cause he knows all about nazi’s!!!.
– Palantir CEO Alex Karp says ‘something has gone completely wrong’ with how AI is sold
– Palantir Billionaire Alex Karp Calls AI Industry ‘Effing Insane’ In Heated Interview
ESSAY Ricardo @Ric_RTP
Palantir’s CEO just exposed Sam Altman and Dario Amodei for robbing every Fortune 500 company.
Within two minutes, Alex Karp took the entire frontier AI industry apart on national television.
His exact words:
“Every single enterprise in this country, these people are LIVID. They are paying for tokens that create no value. These people are stealing the weights and alpha of my business.”
He literally said the entire frontier AI business model is intellectual property extraction dressed up as a subscription.
Then he also destroyed the pricing model with a single question that Silicon Valley still refuses to answer:
“If it was so valuable, let’s say I can make you $1 billion tomorrow. Wouldn’t I say I’ll make you $1 billion and I want 30 percent? Why are they charging for tokens if it’s so valuable?”
That question breaks the industry.
If OpenAI and Anthropic’s models truly delivered the productivity gains the labs claim, they would take equity or a share of the profit they generate. They would not sell access by the million tokens.
Token pricing is itself the CONFESSION that the product cannot produce reliable value at scale. If it did, they would price for the value. But they price for the compute because that is what they are actually selling.
Karp went even further…
He called the entire arrangement “a wealth tax that does not help the poor. It just punishes.”
American businesses are transferring the alpha of their operations, meaning the workflows, the customer data, the strategy memos, the internal models that make them competitive, directly into the training pipelines of a handful of Silicon Valley labs. Once those labs retrain, the customer’s own edge becomes the next enterprise product sold back to their competitors.
And the part the AI industry does not want anyone thinking about:
Every enterprise running its confidential documents, its customer conversations, and its financial models through a frontier model is potentially teaching that model HOW to replace them.
The vendor collects the token fee AND the compounding intelligence about that customer’s business. That is the mechanism. And that is why Karp used the word “stealing.”
He claims this is why every executive he meets is furious in private and silent in public. Nobody wants to be the CEO who called out the labs and then discovered their next competitor was built on their own leaked workflows.
The entire AI industry has been priced for perfection on one assumption:
That frontier labs produce durable, defensible value that justifies infinite compute spend.
But Karp just told us that the customers do not believe that assumption anymore. They believe they are being taxed without benefit, watched without consent, and copied without recourse.
The moment enterprises stop believing, the whole valuation stack shakes.
ESSAY Hedgie @HedgieMarkets
Meta announced it will sell excess AI compute capacity to outside customers. The company spent $145 billion on AI infrastructure this year, put chips in fabric tents to speed up deployment, drafted 6,500 engineers into AI training they call soul-crushing, and cut thousands of jobs to fund the buildout. CoreWeave stock dropped on the news.
My Take
Six months ago these companies said there wasn’t enough compute in the world. Now Meta is selling its leftovers. A company doesn’t sell surplus of something it needs.
CoreWeave went public on the promise that demand for AI compute would outstrip supply for years. SpaceX started selling compute too. Now Meta joins them. Every new seller of excess capacity makes it harder for the next company to justify a premium price, and every one of them undercuts the scarcity story that the IPOs were priced on. Three companies are now competing to sell compute they built on the assumption someone else would buy it. The demand that was supposed to absorb all of this hasn’t shown up, and nobody wants to be the last one holding unsold capacity when the market figures that out.
