    Reminder
    - where are the Epstein files and what was Trump's role?
    - how are the Strait of Hormuz and consequent inflation going, because of Trump's absolutely unnecessary and illegal war?
    - of Trump's illegal ICE deportations?
    - how much has he and his family stolen from hard-working United States citizens?
    - of Trump's support for the murderous Russia regime or for far-right Netanyahu

    Accurate news:

    Convicted felon, sexual assaulter, 6 time bankrupt, and incompetent President, was in absolutely no danger at all while having dinner from a man carrying weapons but who was apprehended some distance outside the security cordon.

    He's not wrong that what's better than humanities degrees from elite schools, is to have Peter Thiel as a best bud. 🤡

    Can't argue with the billions.

    "Karp, who himself holds humanities degrees from the elite liberal arts institutions of Haverford College and Stanford Law, will presumably be alright. With a net worth of $15.5 billion — well within the top 0.1 percent of global wealth owners — the Palantir CEO has enough money and power to live like a feudal lord (and that’s before AI even takes over.)"

    Palantir's billionaire CEO has humanities degrees but says they're useless for you and that you:d better have other skills

    _CEO of Palantir Says AI Means You’ll Have to Work With Your Hands Like a Peasant_
    https://futurism.com/future-society/palantir-ai-labor-hands

    "In the age of AI, Karp said at a forum, a strong formal education in any of the humanities will soon spell certain doom

    “You went to an elite school, and you studied philosophy; hopefully you have some other skill,” adding that AI “will destroy humanities jobs.”..."
