I find the TDS off-putting. It doesn't make a good substitute for reasoning and argument. Repurposing Obama's government modernization team to actually accomplish something seems emminently reasonable. Following up on a promise to update the executive branch and fight waste and fraud seems not unreasonable. Eliminating redundancies isn't radical. Using AI as a scare tactic is reminiscent of using Covid as a scare tactic not that long ago.

I remain a satisfied, and modestly optimistic, voter.

I pointed out Catherine Austin Fitz's Israel derangement syndrome as a reason to no longer qualify her as objective in my last article I read and you said the same thing more eloquently about the other derangement syndrome.

Reasoning and argument Fall by the wayside once derangement syndromes are employed. I've coined the term Islamic deflectionist for those who point at the Jews in modernity and Israel.

Discussions of finally tackling Iran are argued against as wars for the Jews it's incessant and baffling and yet another symbol of Islamic deflectionism manifested through Israel derangement syndrome. This reason and objectivity,It's working for me.

I have stepped away from CAF for the same reasons. She is still not cured then I take it? As some of her work has been truly eye opening.

Awesome to hear that.

Yes the linked article goes straight to Islamic deflectionism.

She's so sharp on so many things yet off the rails 😵‍💫

You may find this interview fascinating with a Jordanian politician pointing to unheard of elemental foundational truths that I as a team Israel dude was surprised to learn.

Well said Jason! Rocking the last administration's boat doesn't sit well with those who follow the MSM narrative.

So they will eliminate WEF plans for a NWO but bring in something even more terrifying.....that's how these things work.

Basically. Except they aren't eliminating WEF plan. It’s the same AI biosecurity state plan.

That's true. But the wording changes. This confuses the masses. There is absolutely nothing they say that should cause us to trust them. That isn't to say that they aren't doing some good things atm. But we must be very discerning. We know where it will all lead eventually.

Nearly anyone who has worked in the govt has personally seen that there are way too many employees, many of which do very little work, especially as they get older. RIP in the govt refers to retired in place and is all too common.

Waste is common yet many bureaucrats try to rationalize it. I was in an accounting position where I actually reduced the budget by 18%. I personally questioned every expense that crossed my desk when I realized the price was too high. My boss told me to stop it - she said she was not worried by a few dollars here or there when the govt could spend a billion dollars on a B1 bomber. She was clueless that that was the reason it cost a billion dollars.

Maybe Trump and Musk are not the best individuals to gut the govt but at least they are trying. Musk in particular has a knack for saving very small amounts that ultimately result in huge savings. Space X is a great example.

“Maybe Trump and Musk are not the best individuals to gut the govt but at least they are trying.” Yes. Just hope those of us who are ‘hopeful’ about this are not being naive.

The article offers only warnings. Justifiable warnings. But if you step outside of the insulated world of DEI ideology, you have to see the result has been inciting more racism. Victim mentality stretched to absurdity. You have to recognize the threats of China forming BRICS, dethroning the dollar as reserve currency and developing their military after successfully surpassing our manufacturing capability. You have to recognize that opening borders to millions of people was something other than a humanitarian plan. Schwab boasting infiltration of cabinets the world over is terrifying. You have to recognize where we stand via debt and spending; the public’s tolerance of their money being transferred to others has waned, particularly in light of what DOGE has uncovered. (check out Mike Benz’s reporting on USAID)

The thing is, there is breathtaking corruption being outed. The way I see it, we were facing collapse if this hadn’t happened. I don’t now if it is Divine Intervention or something spawned from the other side, but it has given us a little more time. My hope is that Congress wakes up and starts doing its job. They have the power of the purse, the power to legislate and only they can declare war. So instead of passing things like the CARES act or the PREP act or the PATRIOT act, I hope they pass acts to protect our DNA, our privacy, our data and legislation against biometric /digital ID. There’s a lot they can do - if they aren’t too compromised to want to do it. And Silicon Valley is not one amorphous uniform blob. If a tech crisis arises, there will be plenty of competitors eager to lend their expertise. It’s a mess, but compared to the other threats we are facing, I think it’s actually more promising. The key is Congress.

Expand full comment

Missing the point. (Likely on purpose) It’s not to replace bureaucratic grift and corruption with AI. It is to eliminate depts that should not exist. like the Dept of Education. Or eliminate whole programs that only exist to shovel cash to NGOs. It’s not to automate the cash shoveling/ bogus jobs - it’s about elimination. This whole article is a red herring.

"DOGE is gutting federal agencies to install AI across the government"

if so, how come the controlled media and the dirty Dems do not hammer this point? Of course, perhaps the dirty Dems only care that they and Leftist groups lose their billions.

Also, those people who potentially stand to lose their jobs would have screamed about the installation of AI in their systems.

No one has said that Trump authorised the installation of AI into the fed govt systems.

From what I read, DOGE have read-only access to the data.

The information is readily available.

"Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is reportedly developing a custom AI chatbot for the US government. Named GSAi, this custom generative AI chatbot is designed for the US General Services Administration (GSA)"

That is different - many websites purport to have those AI chatbots. It is fancy customised goog. I am thinking of “structural” AI - which takes over human functions, like fakebook is reported replace its mid-tier coders with AI.

Not once have I read of the dirty Dems and unions mentioned this fancy internal goog.

Excellent Karen and once again I see the eventual mark of the beast system and the technology it needs between Ai and Quantum computing taking shape and pointing to a fast approaching 7 year tribulation where everything will be set up for the Antichrist, this all needs to happen to fulfill God's Word which is always 100% accurate, so as a believer this is more exciting than anything because it literally can't be stopped... it needs to happen, (not saying I'm "happy" about it) hold on buckle up things are going to get faster and faster we are in the final minutes of the 4th quarter of human history..Maranatha!!

1. could't agree with ya more Karen--I'm still workin' on my piece but I'm includin' a hearty distrust of this "agenda" (Make America Grovel AGAIN?)--not that clearin' out the "pork" ain't good but anythin' AI chills me ta the marrow!

2. Naomi Wolf has a FANTASTIC take on this--she's really freaked out too 'bout the data breach of our privit' info an' the ability for "read only access" ta still git photographed an' saved in the cloud an' compromised...give it a listen if ye kin--it's wurth it (do on 1.5 speed if yer bizzy!)

3. OMG ta bring that adorable little tyke inta the White House like that is beyond a FAUX PAS.... First, it's not like fun time fer candid shots of the presidential fambly relaxin' for a "casual" (staged) portrait like JFK used ta have done... this is a tiny child present for off-fish-all bizness--purdy outrageous. Is that a "toy" fer (f)Elon?

IMHO tho' it may be true the tyke is pickin' hiz noze at The Donald, bringin' in little "X" (oy) is (f)Elon's way ta THUMB HIS NOSE at the whole American system. WHO is HE? I mean we didn't elect the man... He has a larger role than Vance an' thinks it's funny he kin take control of the Big Guy's office... EVEN if the AI stuff wuzn't "the devil"--he's a sly devil this one... Is DJT de-luded, de-looted (cuz all the $ saved'll go ta (f)Elonious's projects... or worse? Don't like it one bit...

An' how creepy that the mama said no an' (f)Elon did it anyway... even if Grimes seems kind've a twisted sister in her own right... covered in tats, wuz in a cult... WHO really are these pee-pull?

Thank you for your clear-headed reasoning. It's discouraging that no matter how many disturbing things Elon Musk does, people still really think he's a good guy. He isn't.

yup, an' some folks 'r gettin' testy 'bout it--like it's TABOO ta be hard on 'im?! He's a globalist--he's pro-AI takin' over EVERY "aspic" of our lives! He wants us to throw our hard earned $$$ inta MARS?! Mars?! Really... That he & his possibly "fake" "autists" (who may be AI themselfs I've heard!) kin find "pork" an' illegal spendin' an' obscene waste is good IF our rights /data privacy kin be protected. (Naomi Wolf sez it's not...) Of all folks I'd trust with my data it would NOT be unvetted 22 year-olds with autism no matter how "swift" their tech. (f)Elon kin be well-used by DJT as a tool... we DO need ta MASA (Make America Solvent Again!) but if The Donald just sees "bizness" an' don't know he's dealin' with a WOLF then the National Flock is gonna be eaten ALIVE an' none of DJT's talk about "the SNAKE"...that Civil Rights poem he read bout nurturin' a sick snake back ta life only ta find it bits ya all the same (like Sinwar!).... so yep, none of that snake talk that he's AWARE will be worth a dime (or a sadly soon ta be canceled penny!) if he cannot see the snake right there in his basket, the WOLF at his door....

Some valid points worth considering but also some leaps in judgement.

I have little trust of either Trump or Musk. I have become more distrustful since the plandemic. I definitely don't trust Big Government, Big Tech, Big Business, Big Pharma. That being said, District of Corruption (D.C.) is a swamp of major proportion, made worse by its control by the Deep State. The federal government is an example of waste, corruption and inefficiency which no business could or should survive. That Musk and his geek squad are digging in and exposing waste, fraud, corruption, etc. makes me elated for the exposure. Go DOGE, woo, woof. I'm not a fan of high tech. It serves little purpose than give a select few power, control and lots of money. This Eryk (why can't these people spell; use words appropriate for lower grade schoolers?) is way left of center, anti-Trump, likely does not like Musk. Did he use AI to write this piece? It seems like he is going down a list (typical to AI) and crossing off all the problems, which appears to be everything. He reeks of non-sensical techno-babble (oops, is that an oxymoron?) Just keep away with your Artificial Intelligence (another oxymoron). I don't want want it, and, furthermore I don't need it. In fact, tell all these immature, psychotic billionaire boys to get lost.

would you rather have KH instead? You don't need to trust anyone. Just inform yourself and share your information with others.

when we have to make choices, it is a question of choosing which ones are better relative to the other choices.

Well, Karen, I would rather hear and read your true thoughts, I am happy that you

expressed them here. We go with our gut feelings.

So far, I am pleased with Trump in nearly 110 ways, but yes there are a few things I hope he is

focused on that he has placed others in charge of. we can only hope and your concerns are well founded in my opinion. We are just the little taxpayers to others grand schemes and we can only hope. Then again, we have been abused for so many years.

I do not care if Elon brings his kid. If I were him, I guess I would too. "X" is really cute that is for sure.

It all ends with Trust. I am not sure I am fully there.

This planet is full of some ugly evil people. When they are quiet, I do have some gut feelings too

I actually enjoyed seeing X there and thought he behaved very well for his age. He was so interested in everything going on around him. :). And I think he just happened to be spending time with his Dad who is busy so much of the time these days, and seemed to be taking some time to be with him. I loved the interview and I love what they're doing.

You probably haven't heard the announcement of the birth five months ago of Elon Musk's 13th child, with a fourth woman with whom he made a contract and she has been isolated in a $40,000 a month apartment, alone all this time. She finally made the annoucement on X about the baby and Musk has yet to respond or even acknowledge that he is the father. All his children except X were either surrogacy or IVF.

X's mother, Grimes, is the only one brave enough to say anything. She does not approve of X being shown off in public like that. She also was in a year-long custody battle with Musk where she didn't see one of her children for 5 months.

I was married to a very wealthy man (in no way as wealthy or as powerful as Musk, but very wealthy all the same) and all he wanted was control, he kept me in court for years trying to get full custody of our two sons but dis not succeed. I know how it goes. I continue to be amazed at how blind people are to Elon Musk.

Karen, all your readers know you have a dark view of Elon Musk. Would it be asking to much to simply let him foul out with trump, or hit a home run.

I've always said I have reservations about him, but in this case, he is also helping to pull our country from the clutches of some really evil people. He may become the evil we have to fight at some point but I've learned to separate people's personal lives from their political ones. No one is perfect and I try not to judge things I'm not sure about about or are only hearsay. (And why would it matter to me how his children have been conceived?) As to the number of children he has, he's always promoted the need for human propagation. A couple of years ago he even said that "having children should be incentivized" (in direct contradiction to the ideas espoused by WEF/Gates and the left, that there are too many "useless mouths" in the world already and many of us should die. He said, "We must create the next generation of humans or spiral into oblivion." So it's not surprising that he's living his life that way, and he can certainly afford to support them. So what is the problem with that?

I'm not sure why you seem to have such personal animosity against him. I'm sure you must have your reasons. But until he does something that I know is not in the best interest of the country, I will still support the efforts he is making on that front. I worry FAR MORE about Larry Ellison's involvement in ANY way in our gov't. and I don't like them collaborating on anything so I'm keeping an eye on that.

There are things Elon has done and said that are worrisome to me. I HOPE Trump will be a good influence on him because I truly think Trump has the good of the country at heart. I guess we'll see.

In truth, they are probably the only two who are NOT interested in doing that. At least Trump isn't. Haven't quite figured Elon out yet, but I do NOT think he has evil intent. I am extremely wary of Larry Ellison's involvement in the gov't in any capacity, however.

As Christians, I believe our eyes should be wide open to these last days. It hardly matters what’s going on because ultimately the system for the coming Antichrist must be created whether we like it or not. Anyone in positions of authority everywhere will have something to do with this system. Every country will ultimately be linked in some manner digitally and we won’t be able to stop it.

All we can do is continue to be as Christ to those we meet along the way and stand up for what’s right!

I’m not saying we should agree to anything at anytime but I personally think that if the current system is looked at and fraud, failings and corruption or just incompetence are found and dealt with, that can’t be a bad thing along the way. If we see those responsible sent to prison, what’s wrong with that? The more the merrier I say.

Doing what’s right and fixing what’s wrong, no matter what the motivation, is always a good and right thing to do. Then we let God be the ultimate judge of those who practice evil in secret or openly.

We should vote for and encourage good practices without being blind to the evil that’s weaving through the system. If we read the Scriptures, we know the ending.

What a privilege to be alive in these days. Be excited but be aware and remember that the church is the restrainer of evil. When we leave, then all hell will really break loose.

Come Lord Jesus!
