Lower courts need to keep ruling against trump so the appeals reach the Supreme Court. Build the case to have them impeached.

Everyone hoping for Trump's demise are forgetting who would replace him and that this current administration is full of enablers.

I don't understand why people have a hard time with this. One careless cigarette toss could destroy lives. It's too late to arrest people after the fire. The people who want stiffer penalties for criminals shouldn't be arguing against law designed to protect folks temporarily.

People have spent too much time watching movies that make the gilded age look great, not realizing it was for just a select few. People have glamorized the cowboy, not understanding innocent hard working folks died at the hand of criminals carrying guns.

Wouldn't we want people to listen to the research of experts? Doing your own research can lead to ideas such as Ivermectin prevents Covid and vaccines cause autism. I for one would appreciate a guide that makes exceeding the average the norm.

I listened to Elon during his Tucker interview. It was boring until the AI conversation. He said he wanted to create a truth seeking AI. Pairing that with his earlier comment of not possibly being able to fact check posts, seems to me the solution was obvious...have AI fact check every single post.
