So that's what 40 years looks like...

□ [“Tim Walz Demands US Taxpayers Pay for 'Damage' Caused by ICE in Minnesota"]

You haven't remotely started to pay back all the taxpayer money your people stole from us.  In fact, you aren't even acknowledging this happened with your full assistance.  And since it had been going on for years long before ICE showed up, you get to repay us first.

He has no idea how to deal with anything, this is just a spoiled child demanding everything and trying to avoid any consequences.  He refused to enforce the law so the federal government stepped in.  And he's just going with mindless leftist rhetoric.  “They left us with serious damage, generational trauma.  They left us with economic ruin in some cases.  They left us with many unanswered questions.”  Questions like WTF are you smoking?  There is no "generational trauma," the damage was caused by leftists and so were any economic problems you find.  Live with it.  Or better yet, get the hell out of the way.

Amusing to realize that Kamala Harris has been almost entirely absent from this whole ordeal.  She tweeted about it on January 8 and that's it.  Assuming she's the one who actually posted this, she did mention Walz regarding the investigation of the shooting.  That does not suggest a close relationship with someone she was on the ticket with and since that's all she's had to say, it shows how irrelevant she is to what Democrats are doing these days.  If she's going to compete with Walz in the next primary, it doesn't look good for her.  She has nothing better to do, she could at least just come to Minneapolis and start showing leadership.  But would you really expect from a woman?

Anyway, I'm sure Walz is going up in leftist polls but it won't really translate to what people actually think.  He's not doing anything about any of these problems - remember the Somali fraud? - and didn't even stop ICE from arresting anybody.  Hasn't really gotten away with defying federal law.  So what has he been doing for the last couple months except spending taxpayer money?  And now he thinks this speech will mean anything to anyone, even those on his side?

DHS Terminates Temporary Protective Status for Yemen – Thousands Told to Go Home or Face Arrest

□ [“Viral AI Video of Fight Between Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt Sows Panic in Hollywood"]

I only saw a bit of the video on my phone so I'm really not the best judge of quality.  I did think the punches looked fake.  I'm not an expert with Cruise or Pitt.  I was surprised to discover I'd actually seen four movies Cruise was in but the most recent one was just a cameo in the third Austin Powers movie.  With Pitt, I'm pretty sure I was watching Tales from the Crypt in 1992 so I probably saw the episode he was on, that's it.  The point is I really don't know how accurate the visuals are for these people.  But as a cheap fake, I'm pretty sure it looks acceptable for their fans.  I personally will wait until we get to see Daisy Duke and Kelly Bundy together again for the first time.

Which leads to a question that's probably obvious to everyone but I haven't seen mentioned, when are people going to start using A.I. to make porn?  That seems to have a lot of potential and a lot of problems just waiting to come out.  It's become very competent in a very short period of time, what will it be able to do a year from now?

I find this with music, an area I'm more interested in.  There is still a 'sameness' to the covers I listen to but for the most part, they do accurately recreate a given song acceptably well.  I'm not sure how it would be able to create spontaneity or the effect of a live performance but it might be able to get 'close enough.'  Then there's the problems with copyright and trademark.  Companies can't prevent people from making things up with other people's properties so what is there to do about it?

I assume that they have this planned.  The big companies have had decades to work this out, going through lawyers and marketing and focus groups.  They interact with each other on an international marketplace so they're all on the same page.  We just don't know what that page is.  Our advantage, as we've seen from the last twenty-some years of internet, is the ability of the individual to do their own thing.

□ [“Puerto Rico Governor Signs Law Officially Recognizing Unborn Babies as Human Beings"]

At a guess, I'll assume liberals will ignore this entirely.  Otherwise they'll need to question why they're so eager to make Puerto Rico a state and have all the other rights and benefits as leftist states.  But maybe not, they totally support Palestine regardless of their laws on abortion.  They've been doing that for decades so it's not like they have any evidence of changing their mind when the facts are pointed out.  Maybe they'll all discuss this at whatever gay bars are popular in the region.

I think it's too deep for any mortal being to comprehend although we might get some cool memes out of it, but we're seeing more of an obvious distinction between the left and the non-whites they claim to support.  It's long been pointed out that Muslims are an increasingly-important part of their voter base even though they fundamentally disagree with leftism.  But they keep having lots of kids so they need to be pandered to.  The same thing applies to Puerto Ricans and hispanics in general.  That's probably also why so many are shifting to the right.

Although our leftist elites don't recognize it, I think that's probably the main reason to support mass immigration.  Those who come in will reproduce much more than the natives so within a few generations, they'll be in charge without any conflict needed.  In real terms, this is what leftism does to a society across decades.  For another example, look at blacks under Democrat control.  Impregnating women like there's no tomorrow but with all the abortion, their percentage of the population doesn't get any bigger.  Gang war helps with that but you get the point, this is what leftism does when it's in charge.

□ [“CNN’s Harry Enten:  All-time High of Voters say Party is ‘Too Liberal’"]

He trusts polls which is the first problem although he's right on the basics.  Leftism doesn't work when people actually try it but leftists refuse to acknowledge that.  They just say it's never really been tried but next time it'll be perfect for everybody.  Except those they don't like.

□ [“Former Obama Adviser David Axelrod Complains About Rising Cost of Obamacare"]

Here's an example, Axelrod helped pass it.  People point out his quotes about how everyone would love it.  But we already know he's not going to acknowledge this, he'll just double down on it.  He doesn't even know who he's helping with this argument, much less with Obamacare itself.  Remember, we were supposed to stop calling it "Obamacare" because everybody liked it.

□ [“Anti-ICE Protesters Wave Large Dildos Outside Don Lemon’s Federal Arraignment While Chanting ‘Protect the Press!’"]

And at the bottom of the ladder, this is who the elites are catering to.  They don't have jobs, they'll rush to support someone who claims to be famous, they ignore how he opposed people's 1st amendment rights to practice religion and for reasons beyond comprehension, they think waving dildos is the way to prove their point.  Are they desperate for a cult that would let them join?  Does Don Lemon already have a cult?  These are people who will just ignore the truth at all costs.
