Pentagon Threatens AI Company Anthropic and the Pentagon have been locked in tense negotiations in recent weeks over the company’s AI usage policy, which bars its AI model Claude from being used to conduct mass surveillance or develop lethal autonomous weapons. These two issues have become the company’s red lines in the dispute. A source familiar with negotiations told The Hill on Monday that Anthropic’s resistance stemmed from concerns that AI systems are not reliable enough to make life-or-death decisions, and the technology significantly changes what is possible with domestic surveillance.

I never called him a liar. I said his religious views are diametrically opposed to the Constitution. You need to respond elsewhere with that comment.

Nope.

Don’t have to think. He has a tour espousing it.

So is the Constitution.

Flynn wants to establish a national religion with Christianity being the sole religion in America. That is STRICTLY against the Constitution. PERIOD. No if’s, and’s, or but’s. It’s the road to a Theocracy. Just like Iran.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; What’s Flynn’s position? How is his position different than Iran?

Go ahead. Read up. Then reread the Constitution. Get back to me when it dawns on you.

Flynn has known issues with his religious beliefs. His beliefs are diametrically opposed to our Constitution.

Sean Simon (La Porte RB) has been named as one of the 21 c/o 2028 DCTX 5 Star watchlist players. The list will be judged throughout the season, with 5 players selected for 5 Star status. The rest will receive 4 Star status.

Told y’all before, a Socialist is someone who still has 2 nickels to rub together as they stand in the government food line. A Communist thinks the Socialist is rich.

Sounds to me like the Karen that made the TikTok post needs to reread the 1st Amendment. Same for those reposting.

I voted for his dad on his POTUS run. Rode many a late night flight back from Cleveland with him. He was the original ‘Freedom Caucus.’ He’d make me laugh because he was so cheap, he’d take the flight from DC to Cleveland red eye, and back to Houston and fly coach. Cracked me up. We had many good conversations on late night flights, and got to where we’d sit next to each other just to catch up. He’d always say, “Remember to vote for me”, and I’d laugh and say “I can’t. La Porte isn’t in your district.”

When did religion & nationality become race?

What does Vance stand for? I don’t know. I can’t name a single thing. I at least know where Paul is on issues, and most align with my thoughts. Rand Paul on the issues: [Hidden Content]

I wouldn’t have any major issues with a Rubio/Paul ticket. Sort of a complementary ticket of strength & global experience along with restraint of government & civil liberties. If they’d work together well, it could be a very good pairing for the country.

We have some very capable planners. Always have—except when the politicians get in the way. But, even the best strategic planners can’t make missiles fall off trees. Especially when there’s a chip shortage & a main adversary controls most of the rare earth minerals needed to make them effective in our systems.

The amount of information some don’t know they don’t know is astounding. This isn’t a video game where you just push a controller button and re-arm. When I talk about subs and Putin, that’s one thing. This is an entirely different strategic snafu that’s been a long time coming. Interceptors don’t just fall off trees. [Hidden Content]

Wish on one hand… Once that ball of wax is opened, control of certain things becomes limited. It very quickly becomes a tit-for-tat and grows.

Pick me! Pick me! How about a ‘C’ for comatose?

Trump definitely has some self-inflicted wounds. But, I also think most people are way off on what a POTUS is actually supposed to have as a job function. We’ve let the Imperial Presidency run amok for decades. On one hand, I hear some say DOJ & Federal employees are supposed to be impartial. In the very next breath, they accuse those same employees of prosecuting political enemies, or not following a POTUS campaign message that he shouldn’t have promised anyway as he didn’t have the authority. POTUS has some effect on the economy through policy. But, he/she doesn’t control the purse strings. Congress & Treasury control. Our Founders and the Constitution explicitly meant it to be that way. There are many other things POTUS past and present have been doing that wasn’t supposed to be in their purview. These powers should be pulled back. I believe that’s what the current SCOTUS is doing slowly but surely. That’s why my grade was only on powers and duties given to POTUS via the Constitution and other laws as expressly directed by Congress. POTUS is supposed to be the caretaker. Not the whole enchilada. One of three.

I hope we never see another POTUS assassination attempt--regardless of POTUS. This stuff is out of control.

Strictly looking at policies that are important to a POTUS core mission, I'll give him a B. (Note, the economy is actually not a core POTUS function.) Border Security National Security (Flew under the radar, but put enough pressure on Panama that the Panamanian Govt. took the Panama Canal away from China last week. VERY big deal.) Bringing key needs (pharma, chipmakers, rare earth mineral development) back to the U.S. Deregulation My grade will definitely drop if we enter a prolonged conflict in the Middle East. I didn't vote for the man. He can also do some really idiotic stuff, and I don't care for him as a man--from what I can see/hear/watch. But, strictly based on policy, there's no debate between him and the Democrats. There are no moderate Democrats left. If they say they are, they're either lying, or they have no real input anyway. The Socialists run the Democratic Party now. I want less government--not more. I really wish an independent, or libertarian candidate could get some traction. But, getting them on the ballot in all 50 States, getting them access to all the Intelligence and other reports/updates the 2 major Party candidates receive, equal funding & debate time is blocked by both major Parties as of now.
