Weird that he knew all this would happen but did nothing to mitigate it.
Almost like the Democrats let the Republicans do their dirty work for them.

Did it "age like milk" when they were just lying the whole time?
Aged like cheese.
Cheese is good, though. Bullshit seems like a more appropriate comparison.
Nattō then
Aged like racism.

Jean-Paul Sartre said it best I think.
"Never believe that anti-Semites [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."
What sucks here is she opposes Trump's bill.
She voted for the bill in the House, then came out against it stating that she didn't know the bill limited AI regulation.
The bill then went to the Senate where the provisions limiting AI regulation were removed, and then passed.
The House will once again vote on the bill, which now does not restrict AI regulation.
She hasn't made any statement but presumably she now supports the bill, given her only complaint about it has been removed.

She says she opposes it after voting for it. Don’t let her off the hook.
Oh indeed: that's part of what really makes this curdle.

Stop slandering Orangutans. That’s a candid shot of a fine gentleman.
Comparing them to MTG is a horrific action.
you're right. pretty much every primate species is more advanced than MTG. my bad

Isn't this a howler monkey? Point still stand though.
You’re probably right. I don’t know my monkeys very well.
Clearly, for the orangutan is an ape!🤦
/s, just teasing, although it IS an ape, just like my mother.
Oook
hands librarian a banana
GNU Terry Pratchett
I interpreted it as "sarcastically pretending to be shocked by something that isn't really surprising", rather than a comparison to MTG
i like this interpretation. however, unfortunately the intent was "MTG is a monkey screaming at shit because it doesn't know how to do anything the way humans do things"

Both sides are same /s
"Entitlement Reform" has been a watchword in both parties going back to the Reagan Administration.
Democrats will tell you they've got an innovative exciting new solution to slow the rate at which health care costs rise, then shift a bunch of public sector money over to private sector subsidies.
Republicans will tell you they're cutting fat out of the system, then transform a bunch of public sector spending into private sector tax breaks.
Healthcare gets more expensive and less accessible. Each team blames the other one. A few socialists in some of the bluer states suggest we try a public Medicare-for-All model, then get primaried out of office in the next cycle by a pack of lobbyists in blue waist coats.
"Ah, but the pawl and the gear are clearly two different components doing separate things!" I cry, to any sucker who will listen.
you can just say you voted for trump, you don't need to show a diagram
Don't work, Daddy musk is here to make a 3rd party which will toxify the potential of any legitimate 3rd party, and we will continue on with the same system.
If their plan for not having elections at all doesn't come to fruition
I, for one, am excited to see him Billionaire Blowout himself on a scale not seen since Bloomberg hemorrhaged $1B during the 2020 Primaries to come in fourth place.
He can't run for president. He wasn't born in the USA.
If Trump can run for a 3rd term, I don't see why Mamdani can't run for his 1st.
Oh no, I can absolutely see him starting a DOGE Party. He has enough money to entirely bankroll it himself. I wish he wasn't such a dipshit man child; he's in a position to do so much good, yet just makes everything he touches worse.
which will toxify the potential of any legitimate 3rd party
Third parties are only not toxic when they are big enough to be a main party and at that time they are too full of corruption to be any good.

It is looking like that more and more. If they don't fight back they are complacent and the same.
