One fun benefit of AI is a job like this 40 years ago would have been impossible to even make a dent in the stack. Now they can feed the entire data set of 55 million visas for it to flag inconsistencies a bored human auditor would easily miss.
This would have to be a very specialized model and be under strict human oversight since you are dealing with peoples lives here.
 
Vance retweeted a joke about libs being traumatized by a user name like "hitlerbussy420"
he's def on the wavelength at least
During his appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, Vance specifically called out troons as being autogynephiles.
I don't think that autogynephilia (as a concept) really makes the rounds outside of fringe sites; so I think Vance probably knows a LOT more than he lets on.
But if nothing else, it won me over on Vance '28.
 
I'd seriously consider that there must be some very high up people who watch MATI on a weekly basis.
Didn't they run a hit piece on Barron, saying he was basically a weirdo shut-in who spent all his time on the Internet and playing video games?
If he's never been on the Farms, he's at least in communities adjacent to it.

Vance is a 4chan oldfag, and was pretty active on early /news/ and /pol/. He just went the lesser-traveled Indian wife route instead of the east Asian wife route.
He also knows how to keep his power-level hidden. That said, his ideals have also been warped over time by prolonged friendships and mentorships with the "futurists" (i.e. anti-human nutjobs like Thiel), so he's not really a /pol/tard, but his views align somewhat with their's (for better or worse).

I don't disagree with this, the AI should not have the final lever to throw. Its best use would be flagging the visas for human review with a reason for why it was flagged, then the human makes the decision to cut or keep. Would take the pile from 55 million to (probably still a lot) but that's a lot less for real humans to have to spend time and money doing.

Above all, Vance is a kid raised by his gam gam in a trailer park because his mom was too busy doing smack. If you think that person can buy into the idea that someone like Thiel is really looking out for him, then you must not know poor people. No one who grew up like him will ever fully trust anyone, ever. You live your whole life expecting the bottom to drop out on you. That's why I never bought on to the idea that Thiel has some power over him. Deep in his secret heart, he probably doesn't even believe that his wife and kids really love him.

Kids who have emotionally abusive or neglectful mothers have one hell of a time trusting anyone, ever. When the one person who is always supposed to be there for you isn't, by her own choice, it really breaks a kid emotionally.
 
Ok this is a weird one

Adam Schiff, the Democratic "leader" of the Senate has just opened a Go Fund Me for his legal costs.

https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5461370-schiff-trump-legal-defense/

“It’s clear that Donald Trump and his MAGA allies will continue weaponizing the justice process to attack Senator Schiff for holding this corrupt administration accountable,” said Marisol Samayoa, a spokesperson for Schiff, in a statement.

"This fund will ensure he can fight back against these baseless smears while continuing to do his job.”

“So the president today is accusing me of fraud. And the basis of his accusation is that I own a home in Maryland, and I own my home in California. Big surprise — members of Congress, almost all of them, own more than one home or rent more than one home because we’re required to be on both coasts. So he is using my ownership of two homes to make a false claim of mortgage fraud”


Umm, I don't know what else to say. Are the Dems so broke they can't afford a lawyer for their Senate Leader? Is Schiff that broke he can't afford one? Or is this just another chance for Schiff to grift a bit more since the USAID slush fund has been cut off.

I've never heard of a major figure in politics using a GoFundMe to get money.

edit for clarity:

Schiff is being accused of fraud because he declared his house in Maryland to be his primary residence while living in California where he also said his home is his primary residence. You get a break on the mortgage rates on your primary residence but not any secondary ones. But obviously you cannot have 2 primary residences.

FYI Letitia James the Jew York DA who charged Trump with fraud has been charged under the same law. She claimed a house in Vermont as her primary residence (she also claimed her father as her spouse but that's a whole other issues) to get a better rate as well as quite a few other lies on her mortgage application.

TLDR: Schiff needs money because he might actually be charged for fraud and it looks like he's actually guilty. Paperwork doesn't lie and it's got his signature all over it.
 
Última edición:
for the record Trump can only control DC because it's not a state. DC has a lot of weird laws because for the longest time it was run as part of the Federal apparatus, it wasn't until the 70's DC got a voted in mayor rather then just an appointed one.

So Trump can exercise a large amount of power over DC because he's head of the Federal government, he can't do that to any other city. Well, at least legally. We are in clown world so I make no bets anymore.
Its over 100 pages back but I laid out(in my post) how Trump could legally take control of any city in the US with emergency powers. However unlikely, he does have legal routes to 'DC' every major city in the US.

If we're going to save this country, fixing the Nuclear Family and the parental care kids receive is the bare minimum we have to do. We're supposed to be the global superpower and we have millions of kids being raised by druggie single mothers in dilapidated trailer parks. It's so sad what's happening to the youth in our country. Every kid deserves to be raised by a mother and father, period
