And I do think we should be holding all these people accountable, including Thune.
yeah they're being snakes though i mean they're they're just being deep state snakes they want the only explanation is that they want the cheating to continue yeah exactly cheating is the only reason why you will stop this right and that's the only reason why you have a mailing ballot that's the only reason why
All right.
Well, there's more going on with the whole AI apocalypse narrative on both sides, I would say.
One of the big stories is that Jack Dorsey, he has this fintech called Block, and he announced 40% staff cuts.
He's getting rid of 4,000 people.
And he said it's all because of AI, that we can use these AI intelligence tools to work better.
And he didn't want to do it gradually.
He thought a lot of companies were sort of
making, you know, making it bad for morale to like do all these rifts over time and just gradually get rid of people.
And so he said, I'm just going to cut it all, all at once and grow from this lower base.
Um, and the stock market rewarded him big time that it's his stock jumped like 23%.
Um, so a lot of people are speculating that other companies are going to do it.
Jack Dorsey said a lot of other companies are probably going to come to the same conclusion.
Um,
And so there's a lot of fear, I think, that there's going to suddenly be this massive wave of layoffs.
We've certainly seen some layoffs recently that have been blamed on AI.
I think a lot of them probably weren't really because of AI, but it's an easy excuse for CEOs to make it seem like the company's doing fine.
I just need to get rid of these people because I don't need them anymore.
But there's a lot of fear now.
