@BreakingPoints Would you be able to start covering the Texas Governor's race? Gina Hinojosa, a Democratic State Rep, is challenging Greg Abbott and started to close the gap between them.

Also, one of Abbott's operatives (Dave Carney) made a creepy request about Hinojosa's past in order to find any dirt on her.

4/4/25: China Calls Trump's Bluff, Stocks Plummet, Lawyer Responds To JD Vance

What the fuck Kentucky?

I guess it’s bye bye bye Thomas Massie?

as an AI engineer, thank you @BreakingPoints for the AI segment. I consult and deploy AI for major companies. and I love it.

but I fucking hate how companies turn right around and use it as a weapon AGAINST Its employees - and customers.

I love AI as a tool. but when it’s used as WEAPON, those that use it so should be treated at enemies of the people and enemies of the state

AI is a tool. it’s not a replacement - for people, skills, knowledge, actual intelligence. it’s just a tool.
