AI isn't going to obviate the need to actually know things about the world - if anything it's going to make the skill scarcer and more valuable Here's an example. I think it's a very useful thing, if you are going to concern yourself with global affairs, to have a really strong map of the world in your head. You should have a good sense of where almost all countries the world are, how big they are, which countries they are next to. Why? Because the entirety of human history has played out on that map of the world. It makes a great many things easier to read, easier to quickly understand, when you don't have to consult an Atlas. It might seem like a small thing - but the easier it is to read history, the more you will *like* reading history, and the better grasp of history you will develop, which will improve your judgment and wisdom. It's all connected.

It’s time for the @FloridaGOP to censure Maria Salazar

No, I don’t think I will.

Representative Mike Kelly (@MikeKellyPA) represents an R+11 district in mostly rural northwest Pennsylvania. For example, Butler, PA is in his district. His voters went for Trump by 20 points. Why is he a co-sponsor of Maria Salazar’s amnesty bill?

The driving force behind winning right-wing politics around the world is immigration restriction People deserve the right to have their own country and to be selective about who they want to join them The "Main Street" Republican types need to get that through their heads

Maria Salazar's amnesty bill has no hope of passing. Mike Johnson wouldn't dare bring it forward. The goal here should be to publicly humiliate Salazar and every one of her co-sponsors. GOP legislators should be terrified of touching anything resembling amnesty going forward

Under @RepMariaSalazar's bill, the wife-beating illegal alien MS-13 gang banging human trafficker Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be granted citizenship by a future Democrat administration, with no further changes to American law. A thread with citations explaining how.

The basic way to understand Maria Salazar's amnesty bill is this: If you came in to the country before Biden was inaugurated, you get to stay. If you were under 18 when you came into the country, for whatever reason - you get a 4-year path to citizenship. If you were over 18, you get what is effectively permanent residency with no path to citizenship, and you don't have to pay payroll taxes. Not joking. The only deportable aliens will be criminal aliens and aliens that came in under Biden. Everyone else gets to stay.

It's a good day to support President Donald Trump

Wait what
