Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

He demanded that she send him nude pictures and bullied her into a relationship. This is called sexual harassment. It was not “an affair”. RESIGN NOW.

Jamie Raskin to Kristi Noem LOLLLL:

"Apparently when your special blanket -- your blankie -- was left one of the govt jets and not transported over to the new one, your special govt employee Corey Lewandowski chivalrously stepped forward to fire the pilot, mid-air."

“Why didn’t we have this Hillary in 2016?”

You did have this Hillary — you just falsely believed she was nothing but an ice-cold bitch.

Now that you’re dealing with Donald Trump, you wish that bitch were here to rescue you.

Today was an important day for the opposition movement. The law firms that stood up against Donald Trump threats won.

Those that capitulated and collaborated with Trump will need to explain to their families, clients and future generations why when democracy was at stake they were such cowards.

Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"

What this means for our customers Secretary Hegseth has implied this designation would restrict anyone who does business with the military from doing business with Anthropic. The Secretary does not have the statutory authority to back up this statement. Legally, a supply chain risk designation under 10 USC 3252 can only extend to the use of Claude as part of Department of War contracts—it cannot affect how contractors use Claude to serve other customers.

shorter Anthropic: lol fuck you, you’re way out over your skis and we’re going to beat your asses in court
