it’s so much more than elephants in the room — “It is difficult to get a man/woman to understand something, when his/her salary depends on his not understanding it.”
Mar 30, 2026
It’s more than what Upton Sinclair wrote a million years ago. The nanny state, the HR Drachonian state, the inability to travel through politics, history, civics, and current events.
So, I was at a volunteer meeting for drivers who putter around the state to take seniors on outings, trips to museums, festivals, and other activities. The latest trips from Lincoln County are shopping trips — they pay $10 each for the van, and we take 8, 9 or more to Costco or Winco to load up on things.
“We’ll be seeing more of an interest in these sorts of trips,” one of the drivers said. “With things as they are.”
Please, let’s move onto the reason and why things are the way they are or are going the way they are. Nope.
Self-censorship is on the rise since 2017. It’s up 12 points among progressives (30–42 percent), and up 7 points among centrist liberals (45 to 52 percent), moderates (57 percent-64 percent), and centrist conservatives (70–77 percent). Only staunch conservatives haven’t changed much, perhaps because 76 percent said they were already self-censoring three years ago.
One-Third Worry about Their Views Affecting Careers
Many are concerned about their livelihoods and the ability to provide for their families. Almost one-third (32 percent) of employed people say they worry they could get fired or miss out on job opportunities if their political views became known.
Just maybe, just maybe, a deeper and longer conversation about this dirty country’s wars and baby killing and sick masurbation complex with Israel, but more importantly with uniformed disservices and the baby-killer bomb makers would get us outside that fucking one day box!
And so we are kettled more and more as HR scours social media posts (they are not supposed to do that, but…), ready to disqualify any applicant, but they will come up with some other excuse, “Oh, thanks for your application. While you have strong credentials, many applied, and someone more suited to and more qualified for the position was offered the job.”
This is the reality of our fucking Teletubby Times:
Dear Paul,
The third round of “No Kings” demonstrations on March 28 drew millions of people into the streets across the United States in what was the largest single-day protest in American history. Organizers estimated that roughly 8 million people participated in more than 3,300 events across the 50 states in every major city, along with hundreds of small towns.
The scale of individual demonstrations was extraordinary: Minneapolis–St. Paul, designated the national flagship event, drew between 100,000 and 200,000 people. Large protests were reported across the country, including an estimated 350,000 in New York City; 180,000 in Boston; 200,000 in Chicago; 90,000 in Seattle and 40,000 in San Diego. Roughly 600 events took place in predominantly rural, Republican-leaning communities, underscoring the national breadth of opposition.
The scale of the March 28 protests reflected the depth of popular anger at the advance of dictatorship at home and the escalation of imperialist war abroad. A collision is unfolding between a capitalist oligarchy that is breaking with democratic forms of rule and the broad mass of the population.
The war against Iran, now one month old, was a decisive animating force for those participating. While it was downplayed by the organizations that called the protests, opposition was expressed in signs and chants in city after city. As the demonstrations were taking place, Trump was preparing a further escalation with potentially catastrophic consequences for the planet.
The question that must be confronted is: Given the scale of opposition, how is Trump still in power? How can a criminal regime—operating in open violation of the Constitution, erecting a dictatorship, and dragging the population of the world into an illegal war of aggression—continue to govern?
The answer lies in the political chasm between the anger of millions and the supposed opposition, including the Democratic Party-aligned groups that called the protests. This was expressed most sharply in the deliberate downplaying of the war.
David North, chairman of the International Editorial Board of the World Socialist Web Site, was barred from addressing a “No Kings” rally in Nuremberg, Germany. Democratic Party operatives “would not allow me to speak and condemn the illegal war against Iran, which the Democrats support,” North noted.
Speaking from outside the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg—where Nazi leaders were tried for crimes against peace 80 years ago—North declared: “If the principles of Nuremberg were applied today, those responsible for the launching of the war against Iran—the leaders of the US government, Trump, Hegseth, Rubio, and the rest—would be found guilty of the very crimes of which the Nazi leaders were convicted. The war against Iran is a war of aggression. It is an illegal war… How will it be stopped? Only through the development of a movement of the working class within the United States, throughout Europe and globally.”
At the major rallies, Democratic politicians either ignored the war entirely or reduced it to a passing phrase, because they agree with the war’s fundamental aims. Bernie Sanders’ remarks in Minnesota were the only comments by a major Democratic Party figure that devoted more than a sentence to the war. But Sanders’ function is not to develop opposition to war and dictatorship, but to prevent it. He presents the war primarily as the product of Trump and Netanyahu, not as the outcome of the class interests of American imperialism and a bipartisan policy pursued for decades.
Millions of workers participated in the demonstrations, but they did so as individuals, not as an organized force. This expresses the role of the union bureaucracy in suppressing independent working class action. AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler did not mention war once. Neither she nor AFT President Randi Weingarten suggested that workers actually do anything to oppose the Trump administration outside of voting for Democrats.
The March 28 demonstrations expressed deep and widespread opposition to the Trump administration, but this opposition is not yet guided by a clear political program. The central task is to arm it with a conscious perspective equal to the scale of the crisis. Certain fundamental points must be stressed:
First, the Trump administration is proceeding simultaneously with the escalation of war abroad and its conspiracy for dictatorship at home. Its response to mass opposition is not concessions but the intensification of repression—the obliteration of democratic rights, the normalization of police-state methods, and the preparation of ever more violent measures to silence dissent.
Second, Trump’s actions do not arise simply from his personal depravity. He speaks and acts as the representative of a class—the capitalist oligarchy—that is breaking with legality and democratic forms of rule in order to defend its wealth and global interests.
Third, the Democratic Party represents the same class. It differs from Trump only over tactics and presentation, while enabling the war and working systematically to divert opposition into electoral dead ends and safe channels that do not threaten the foundations of capitalist rule.
Fourth, the decisive social force that must be mobilized is the working class, organized independently of the trade union apparatus. The protests coincide with a deepening eruption of the class struggle, but this movement is being blocked and dissipated by a union bureaucracy integrated into the corporations and the state.
The essential next step is the building of independent rank-and-file committees, rooted in workplaces and uniting workers in the United States with workers internationally. The International Workers Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees encourages the building and linking of these committees to prepare coordinated action against the war machine and the assault on democratic rights.
We are winning the Epstein War now. Can’t wait for more Holly-Dirt drump is about to go down? Give me a fucking Hollywood break!!
Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story, the New York Times bestelling book by investigative journalist Julie K. Brown, is in the works for television with Oscar, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Laura attached to star and executive produce. Sony Pictures Television is hitting the market with the timely project, a limited series, produced by Adam McKay’s Hyperobject Industries.
The event series is described as an explosive account of an investigative reporter exposing the secret plea deal between Epstein and federal prosecutors. Drawing from Brown’s experience as a groundbreaking reporter for the Miami Herald, the book and the limited series follow her relentless years-long investigation that identified 80 victims, persuaded key survivors to go on the record, and led to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrests.

Early last year, shortly after Donald Trump took office for his second term, former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy announced he was departing the recently-formed Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E) after reports of conflict with the department’s co-head, Elon Musk. Ramaswamy joined Fox News to clarify these rumors, and to tease his next endeavor –– holding public office. Ramaswamy noted Musk’s approach was “a technology approach,” whereas his was “focused more on a constitutional law, legislative-based approach.” He furthered, “when you’re talking about a constitutional revival, it’s not just done through the federal government, it’s done through federalism, where states also lead the way.” Despite their differences, Ramaswamy importantly remarked that they were both “on the same page” and that their attempts “in saving the country” required them to “divide and conquer.”
Towards the end of the interview, Ramaswamy mentioned he was flying back to Ohio that week, with an announcement regarding his expressed intention of pushing for reform at the state level coming shortly. The former presidential hopeful explained that when “we look at the country over the last 20 years, Silicon Valley was at the bleeding edge of the American economy. I think the Ohio River Valley can be at the bleeding edge of the American economy for the next 20 years.” A few weeks later, Ramaswamy’s gubernatorial campaign for Ohio was announced and the former D.O.G.E. co-head was promptly endorsed by President Trump. Over the course of that campaign, Vivek’s fortunes have quite literally soared. Since launching his campaign, he has not only come to command a massive campaign war chest filled by deep-pocketed donors, but his own net worth has doubled.
Oh, now these are rebels. A fucking name change for his Epstein Cuntology:
Recent Government & Political Controversies
- Jeffrey Epstein Ties: Lutnick has faced bipartisan calls to resign after DOJ files revealed he misrepresented his relationship with the convicted sex offender. Despite previously claiming he cut ties in 2005, Lutnick testified in February 2026 that he and his family visited Epstein’s private island for lunch in 2012. Records also suggest business connections, including investments in a digital ad firm alongside Epstein through 2018.
- Tariff Profiteering Allegations: House Democrats have demanded records regarding allegations that Cantor Fitzgerald, now led by Lutnick’s sons, “bet” on the reversal of the administration’s tariff policies. Internal documents reportedly suggest the firm purchased rights to tariff refunds at a steep discount, potentially yielding a 300% to 500% return following a Supreme Court ruling against the tariffs.
- Social Security Remarks: In 2025, Lutnick sparked outrage by suggesting that the “easiest way to find fraudsters” in the Social Security system is to stop payments and see who complains. Critics, including Mark Cuban, slammed the comments as “cavalier” and out of touch with retirees who depend on the checks for survival.
- Transition Team Conflicts: During the Trump transition, Lutnick was accused by insiders of mixing business with government duties by allegedly using transition-related meetings on Capitol Hill to discuss regulatory matters benefiting Cantor Fitzgerald’s cryptocurrency interests.
Business & Historic Controversies
- Post-9/11 Paycheck Suspension: Following the 2001 terrorist attacks that killed 658 Cantor Fitzgerald employees, Lutnick drew intense criticism for cutting off paychecks to the families of missing workers just four days after the tragedy. While he later committed 25% of the firm’s profits to these families for five years, the initial move left a lasting negative impression in the industry.
- Illegal Gambling & Money Laundering: Lutnick’s affiliate company, Cantor Gaming (later CG Technology), was embroiled in a massive scandal involving illegal sports betting and money laundering. In 2016, the company paid roughly $30 million to settle investigations after admitting to crimes including facilitating out-of-state betting and partnering with an illegal ring known as the “Jersey Boys.”
- Hostile Takeover of Cantor Fitzgerald: In 1996, as his mentor Bernie Cantor lay dying, Lutnick engaged in a bitter legal battle with Cantor’s wife, Iris, for control of the firm. The dispute was so heated that he was reportedly barred from Bernie Cantor’s funeral

The world economy is experiencing the most severe oil shock in decades. The worst could still be on the way.
Analysts say that rising gas prices are just the start. The most serious consequences of the war with Iran could hit the global economy in the coming weeks and months.
“Rising oil prices will push up input, transportation and manufacturing costs at a time when demand remains fragile,” analysts with Moody’s credit ratings agency said in a note published last week.

Oh, that uniformed disservices mecenaries, loving another fucking talentless cunt:
The Army has launched an investigation into a recent fly-by of two AH‑64 Apache helicopters near singer Kid Rock’s Nashville, Tenn., estate after a video of the low-altitude maneuvers went viral online.
“The Army is aware of a video circulating online that appears to show AH‑64 Apache helicopters operating in the vicinity of a private residence in the Nashville area,” Maj. Jonathon Bless, the spokesperson for the 101st Airborne Division, told The Hill in a statement Monday.
On Saturday, Rock posted a video on social media of him saluting one of the helicopters that hovered near his home’s pool with the caption: “This is a level of respect that s‑‑‑ for brains Governor of California will never know. God Bless America and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend her.”
Jew Juice, man, more Jew Justification a la Oppen-Monster-Heimer: I helped build Facebook and saw it go wrong. AI is headed the same way By Justin Rosenstein.
“When I was 22, I sat across from a 21-year-old Mark Zuckerberg as he convinced me to join Facebook with his vision for connecting people. I helped him build it, then watched it become a machine for addicting them instead. Because addiction was more profitable.”
Rosenstein is a prominent critic of the “attention economy.” He was featured in the Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma, which warns about the addictive nature of social networking platforms.
More fucked up Jew News: Jew Judge. Federal judge Paul Friedman seemed skeptical of the new press policy implemented by the Pentagon last week, calling aspects of it “weird” and Kafkaesque.
Friedman struck down key aspects of the previously implemented Pentagon media policy on 20 March, but at the latest hearing on Monday stopped short of ruling on a motion filed by the New York Times to force compliance of his decision.
Friedman was particularly skeptical about the ways in which press space was being provided to the seven New York Times reporters, whom he previously ruled should have their press access badges returned.
Oh no, those fucking people, HR? What Top Executives Say About the Future of Work
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the use of “computers and machines to mimic the problem-solving and decision-making capabilities of the human mind,” according to IBM. [1]
The idea of AI dates back at least 2,700 years. As explained by Adrienne Mayor, research scholar, folklorist, and science historian at Stanford University, “Our ability to imagine artificial intelligence goes back to ancient times. Long before technological advances made self-moving devices possible, ideas about creating artificial life and robots were explored in ancient myths.” [2]
Mayor notes that the myths about Hephaestus, the Greek god of invention and blacksmithing, included precursors to AI. For example, Hephaestus created the giant bronze man Talos, which had a mysterious life force from the gods called ichor. Hephaestus also created Pandora and her infamous and powerful jar/box, as well as a set of automated servants made of gold that were given the knowledge of the gods. Mayor concludes, “Not one of those myths has a good ending once the artificial beings are sent to Earth. It’s almost as if the myths say that it’s great to have these artificial things up in heaven used by the gods. But once they interact with humans, we get chaos and destruction.” [2]
The modern notion of AI largely began when Alan Turing, who contributed to breaking the Nazis’ Enigma code during World War II, created the “Turing test” to determine if a computer is capable of “thinking.” The value and legitimacy of the test have long been debated. [1] [3] [4]
The “Father of Artificial Intelligence,” John McCarthy, coined the term “artificial intelligence” as “the science and engineering of making intelligent machines.” He would go on to create the computer programming language LISP (which is still used in AI), host computer chess games against human Russian opponents, and develop the first computer with “hand-eye” capability, all important building blocks for AI. [1] [5] [6] [7]
AI technology continued to grow at a rapid pace during the 1950s. And, as computers became cheaper in the 1960s and ’70s, AI programs flourished, and U.S. government agencies including the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) began to fund AI-related research. But computers were still too weak to manage the language tasks researchers asked of them. Another influx of funding in the 1980s and early ’90s furthered the research, including the invention of expert systems. But progress again waned with another drop in government funding. [10]
More recently, advances in computer storage limits and speeds have opened new avenues for AI research and implementation, aiding scientific research and forging new paths in medicine for patient diagnosis, robotic surgery, and drug development. [1] [10] [11] [12]
Now, artificial intelligence is used for a variety of everyday implementations including facial recognition software, online shopping algorithms, search engines, digital assistants like Siri and Alexa, translation services, automated safety functions on cars, cybersecurity, airport body scanning security, poker playing strategy, and fighting disinformation on social media. [13] [58] [120]
There are several kinds of AI:
- Weak/Narrow/Generative AI: the common, general type of AI used to “generate” answers and content, designed to perform specific tasks within a limited, predefined scope; it is found in virtual voice digital assistants like Siri and Alexa and popularly used in content creation, including text from chatbots, images, and music.
- Agentic AI : stronger than “weak” and “narrow” AI, capable of not just generating answers and creating content from human prompts but serving as a semi-autonomous agent, troubleshooting and deciding which actions to take amid multipart tasks, all within human-set parameters but with minimal human oversight; agentic AI is an emerging technology and is increasingly used in customer service.
- Strong AI (AGI: Artificial General Intelligence): stronger than agentic AI and still theoretical today, mirroring human intelligence and capable of autonomous reasoning, solving problems it was not trained on, and learning from experience and adjusting its future actions accordingly; it could discover new scientific principles, create new technologies, and manage highly complex, globally integrated systems. including world economies, climates, and infrastructure.
- Superintelligent AI: stronger than even Strong AI, capable of surpassing human intelligence, in creativity, problem-solving, and emotionality, raising a myriad of ethical questions and posing existential risks; purely theoretical, this form of AI would be beyond human control.[121] [122]

- Business Insider gathered chief people officers and senior leaders for an on-the-record dinner in New York City.
- The event, Futureproofing Your Workforce in the Age of AI, highlighted the relentless change HR executives are navigating.
- Below are excerpts from the discussion, edited for clarity.
“Are we working for AI at this point or is AI working for us?” Maxine Carrington, the Chief People Officer of Northwell Health asked a group of HR and people executives who were gathered for dinner on a rainy night in New York City recently.
“How can we use those tools as enablers to help us achieve our goals, that’s the mindset I need us to have, not chasing the tools.”
Heads around the table nodded in agreement. The group, convened by Business Insider, spent ninety minutes in a conversation titled “Futureproofing Your Workforce in the Age of AI,” presented by Indeed.
“I do think it’s an organizational, transformational challenge and not a technological one,” Gareth Lewis of Lewis People & Culture Advisory said at one point. “But right now the conversation’s all around tools, efficiencies, headcount reductions, and not so much about how we actually are going to redesign our roles.”
Redesigning roles is exactly what Agnes Garaba, Chief People Officer at UiPath, is striving to do, but it’s not easy.

Luxury cunts:
Colorado’s congressional delegation isn’t giving up the fight to block a planned luxury community above the Eagle River.
U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet and Rep. Joe Neguse, both Democrats, last week proposed legislation that would prevent the Forest Service from spending any money to build an approved road across public land from the Eagle River to a 680-acre ridgetop parcel where Florida developers are planning a 19-home community.
It is the second time this year that Bennet, a third-term senator who is running for Colorado governor, has sought to block White River National Forest staffing or funding for a controversial road leading to Berlaimont Estates above Edwards. His amendment to the Senate Interior Appropriations bill in January was not adopted.
The Forest Resources Accountability Act says the Forest Service should be working toward wildfire mitigation after an exceptionally dry winter, especially after the Trump administration’s reduction of 6,000 agency jobs last year. The proposed legislation would prevent the Forest Service from directing taxpayer dollars toward a road for a gated community of mansions.
“Heading into such a challenging summer, the Forest Service needs to be laser-focused on the public good,” Bennet said in a statement. “They simply do not have the capacity to divert staff time to projects that only benefit the very wealthy few.”
The cunt who killed his cousin with drugs, that’s the ticket. FUCK. As many as 50 million people in the United States are thought to struggle with an addiction to drugs or alcohol. The majority don’t get treatment for it, and of those who do seek treatment, about half relapse within the first year.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has his own story of addiction and credits Alcoholics Anonymous with keeping him sober. But Secretary Kennedy has said that a treatment program in Italy that has shown great success in keeping people sober should serve as the vision for what addiction treatment could be here in the US. On this episode of The Sunday Story, WBUR‘s Deborah Becker travels to Italy to see firsthand how a treatment program at an Italian vineyard has created so many success stories.
