Good. This bill contained provisions that would've endangered our rights for the sake of AI experimentation.

huh you’d think he’d have mentioned this during the phone interview he did that day with a local news station, when he said he watched the towers fall from trump tower and then bragged like a fucking psycho that another building of his was now the tallest building in the manhattan skyline
Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one
