Q: I’m told that Vivek Ramaswamy left you a congratulatory phone call. Have the two of you spoken at all? Governor-elect @AmyActonOH: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.

Hard to believe that Republicans got shellacked when Trump continues to focus on the problems of everyday Americans.

Is Chuck Schumer exciting? No. Does he take risks? Of course not. But do his experience and acumen make him EXACTLY the man democrats need to most effectively wield this unprecedented mandate? Jesus christ, no

Amy Acton is leaving Vivek on read. Most Republicans I spoke to in Ohio, including those at his own watch party, thought his ad crossed the line.

In his first public appearance since his party suffered crushing electoral losses, Trump is at the site of the White House ballroom, talking about the marble he ordered for the floor.

Every tech bro rn
🤖 Made with AI
People should always be in control of the future. OpenAI is against the notion that it would be acceptable for people to be relegated to a role of doing things that “AI systems think makes sense to reward in humans”. People should not cede control of the future to superintelligence, and that requirement should ultimately constrain AI progress.

Sending @hinsonashley my deepest condolences on being fired by the people of Iowa. It’s too bad you spent the past few years undermining the trust in the media, because now there aren’t many media jobs to go back to. But hey, maybe you can start a Substack.

Jeffries and Schumer should not be leaders the democrats are looking up to, unless they want some 'very strongly worded letters.' Put someone in charge that is going to do the people's bidding, not some centrist moderate who wants to play nice with a cult that ruined the USA.
