The Biden administration was preparing new requirements for AI companies to disclose potentially dangerous experiments. Trump killed the proposed rule. As voters choose the next Congress, AI oversight remains a major unresolved policy fight.

It's time to nationalize social media. Zuckerberg and Elon are Trump cucks and they have far too much power. Democracy is being destroyed by Epstein class billionaire perverts.
🚨 BREAKING: Meta has suspended Angie Nixon's organizing account ahead of the midterms. Nixon is the Democratic nominee for US Senate in Florida.

We're living in an economy where a guy with a master's degree is delivering groceries to a 22-year-old who made $4 million filming himself screaming at video games. And we're still telling kids to study hard.

Zuckerberg already admitted it wrongly suspended the No Kings Instagram account during the peak of a massive voter-mobilization effort. Now, seven days before the midterms, Zuckerberg has suspended the account Angie Nixon’s Senate campaign uses to organize Latino voters. At what point do repeated ā€œmistakesā€ that suppress organizing by Democrats become an election-integrity crisis?

Microsoft got $19 billion in tax breaks from Trump. It pays a lower federal income tax rate than a teacher. It’s spending $60 billion on stock buybacks. Its CEO made $90 million last year. ā€œCorporations will create jobs if they get tax breaksā€ is a total scam.
Microsoft just made $133.7 BILLION in net income last year. Today they announced they are getting rid of 60,000 workers. Fuck these companies man.

Your ballot won’t mail itself, California. It can’t hop off the counter, sneak past the dog and find a mailbox on its own. Return it today: mail it postmarked by Nov. 3, or use a drop box by 8 p.m. Nov. 3.

Another example of why health coverage shouldn't be tied to employment, and be gated by cost. Medicare for All will protect Americans physically and financially.
Microsoft is offering buyouts to 60,000(!) employees. Headcount and revenue growth is really starting to diverge at tech companies.

Dear @WhiteHouse: Artificial Intelligence is what normal folks call AI. trump’s decision to let AI run wild was a horrible decision. Trying to rename AI doesn’t change that. Also, POTUS can’t compel speech from Americans. So take your anti-First Amendment crap and shove it.
Donald Trump says "artificial intelligence" is a very bad and inaccurate name" and wants to replace it with "super intelligence." "In short order, we will be officially BANNING the term, ā€˜AI/Artificial Intelligence,’ in all relevant documents, and everything else, due to its inaccuracy. Thank you for your attention to this matter." variety.com/2026/digital/new…

Lowering the Medicare age to 50 would cost $180 billion a year. That's $70 billion less than the budget increase the House passed for the Department of War. We could have healthcare over warfare. I'm proud to cosponsor @RepJayapal's bill to lower the age from 65 to 50.
