- Thank you, Guy. I'm glad people are finally reading this. It didn't seem to attract much interest when I published it, but perhaps the symptoms are now so obvious that readers are more receptive to the argument.
- I don’t envy @claireberlinski.bsky.social wading into the fetid swamp that is Trump’s increasing mental deterioration, but I respect her for laying it out in such detail. There is nothing good here (Vance??), but avoidance of the issue is worse, she argues cogently.
- Reposted by Claire BerlinskiThis, by @claireberlinski.bsky.social, is a smart, thorough comb through Trump’s use of language, and what it says about him — and robustly makes the case that no-one has to be qualified to make a diagnosis to point out what everyone can see and hear. claireberlinski.substack.com/p/the-presid...
- Reposted by Claire BerlinskiVery interesting interview (I must admit I'd never come across Claire Berlinski before)
- My God! How did you survive?
- substack.com/home/post/p-... I've written a long piece arguing that the American age is over and it isn't coming back. Will China replace us? That's a separate question. But this will not be an American century.
- Reposted by Claire BerlinskiBeyond the obvious need for tribunals for the crimes Noem and others have committed and enabled, bringing shame back seems fundamental to the enterprise of rebuilding this country. No society can survive without a general understanding that this kind of shameless lying is unacceptable.
- Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"
- Reposted by Claire Berlinski“… ready. You will be among the most hated people in history. Americans are begging you: Stop, now, and get a hold of yourself. Listen to that small voice — if there is one — in your head telling you that this is insane. Do the right thing. Stop this. Impeach him.” 3/3

- Reposted by Claire Berlinski“If this continues, the consequences will be world-changing. They will be terrible beyond most Americans' imaginations. What ensues will not be fixable. To those enabling him: You are destroying your own children's futures. You are condemning them to a life for which Americans are in no way …” 2/3
- That and an obese 79-year-old's narrowing arteries.

- The Peace that Guarantees War open.substack.com/pub/clairebe... Let me put it as plainly as possible. If this plan is implemented, the next war in Europe will not be limited to Ukrainians. It will involve Americans. And it may very well be a nuclear conflict.

- I know it’s long. It’s long because I wanted to show the full scope of this—not to drive home a point (although the details do demonstrate the enormity of the project) so much as to ensure readers understand all the details.
- Many readers will already be familiar with the way AIs work, and others will have read reporting on the events I describe. But I think most people don’t fully understand why the AI control problem is so urgent.
