Horseshit. Conservatives have been raising their children for a generation to believe dying for Trump's America is a worthy cause.
Raw Story is just like any other rag. They play to their demographics. There is no massive anti-MAGA outcry on X or any of the socials.
Don't let this bullshit lure you into a false sense of security. Conservatives are as committed as ever. The majority of them think the post-911 wars were justified, and that they were heroes for fighting in them. They also believe the Jews are the chosen people. They're ready to send their kids to die in Iran. They're nationalists and zionists. It's their entire worldview. It's in their bones.
Why are you pretending like Biden isn't talking specifically about the collapse of whatever is left of American democracy into outright dictatorship? Hungary, North Korea, Russia... whatever you think about America, the crony capitalism of the last 40 - 50 years is nothing compared to Russian oligarchy. In all of American history, nothing even close has existed. And since the beginning of post-war American hegemony, these systems of democratic oppression have always existed "over there". For the very first time, the full dictator experience is coming to America. It's entirely, undeniably new.
I tend to agree with the former president. There is no coming back from this.
He's not a Democratic Socialist, but he is the closest thing to it that could come out of Texas. Jasmine Crockett is arguably farther right than he is. More importantly, most polling predicts that Talarico has the better chance against Cornyn (incumbent). However, odds are nearly the same for both candidates against Paxton.
That said, the most interesting part of this whole thing is that Republicans are boosting Crockett. She's their pick to run against Cornyn. Do they think she can win but would be easier to control than Talarico? Do they think it's a guarantee for Cornyn? Whatever the case, Trump thinks her nomination would be a gift to the GOP.
Anthropic has raised $30B in equity and is pledging $50B constructing data centers (all debt; they have only $2.5B in revolving credit facility).
There will be an IPO sooner rather than later.
The only question then is: will Anthropic be the first tech company ever to withstand the government? The answer is no. Everything you do with Anthropic's services will become the government's data trove someday, guaranteed.
In other words, they did the calculations and found that they don't yet have the market share or the financial position that would enable them to sell out to the government. However, they're planning to get there someday and hope the DoD is willing to work together in the future.
Do you think there are people out there who really think that Dr. Oz is a genuine expert in medicine and health & medical policy? Or would they be happy with any bootlicker who has a doctorate running the CMS?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy? Man it must have changed a lot since I did it in the '00s.
