JOE BIDEN WAS NEVER INDICTED! Unlike lifelong criminal felon/fraud/rapist/child rapist/insurrectionist/Putin owed, kleptocratic, anti-American dictator wannabe Trump; who commits crimes daily FOR HIS OWN PERSONAL FINANCIAL AND POLITICAL GAIN. Honorable Biden WORKED FOR USA, TRUMP PROFIT$ ONLY TRUMP.

The real fact is that, though Biden may've been old, he was much more competent, knowledgable, and exponentially much more honorable and honest than pathological liar, convicted felon/fraud/rapist/insurrectionist traitor Trump. And THAT is all much more important. Trump is the corrupt one all along.

Popok: I don’t want to live in a country where I wake up and the president and his henchmen are sending other human beings—and they are outsourcing them for cash. Paying cash to third-world countries that don’t respect our values.

I am less optimistic than @ilangoldenberg.bsky.social. I think it will undoubtedly make it worse, inflaming more hatred against Jews. It’s hard not to suspect that’s a feature, not a bug of many related steps the administration is taking.

Why are Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, Pichai and Tim Cook visiting and giving money to Trump ? Because they are in “The Race “ to become the dominant platform in the world. Amazon/Anthropic vs FB/LLama vs Google/Gemini vs Twitter/Grok, vs IPhones/ChatGpt is the penultimate global power war ever.

Time zones are fascinating. Australia is already in 2025, Europe is still 2024, and the USA is currently in 1939.

Next year, I will publish my first novel, and my first credited script for television will air, and I will get a medical procedure I've long needed. Also, it's an open question as to which rights I'll have when the year is over. I have been working to next year my entire life, and YET.

Thanks to Democrats, in 2025 Medicare Advantage and Part D participants have an out of pocket cap of $2,000 on prescription drugs. This will lower costs for so many Americans.

Twitter continues to lose millions of users each month. At the same time, Bluesky is growing so fast — currently over 21 million users — that it's racing to get more servers. 🦋
