    Work in Progress, Covid bioterrorist-Criminal Leaders; Federation of American Citizens Scientists and their Associates Worldwide should be tracked and be brought to JUSTICE. Trump and his GOP Allies claimed that FBI Agency searching his Mar-a-Lago Home was Politically weaponized by President Biden, the DOJ and the Democrats, that was a lie. FBIs searching Trump's Home were searching for EVIDENCE in COVID pandemic bioterrorism Conspiracy. Trump's knowledge in COVID pandemic bioterrorism Conspiracy in 2020; should be exposed. COVID bioterrorist -Conspirators; Federation of American Citizens Scientists and their Associates; horrendous terrorist and bioterrorist Criminal activities in the shadows in US and in Worldwide Countries in the past 22 years should not be covered up coz their Leadership are Special Whites. COVID pandemic bioterrorism a US National Security issue and International Security issue; is MUCH WORSE THAN New York 9/11 terrorism, MUCH WORSE THAN Hamas terrorism in Israel on October 7th and Covid pandemic bioterrorism Conspiracy in 2020 is MUCH MUCH WORSE THAN Victim Trump's 1st, 2nd and 3rd assassination attempts. Covid pandemic Victims' Case is related to the Classified Documents Case should not be dismissed. The SCOTUS ruled that Trump has some immunity not total immunity. Covid bioterrorism pandemic the WORST bioterrorist-Crime in Human History since the beginning of the World; needs to be investigated. Judge Cannon, a Trump supporter, should not have dismissed the Classified Documents Case. Discovery evidences related to Trump and his Aides COVID briefings at the White House in November 2019 at night time; (Guests Meeting logs, White House Gates camera videos, emails and phone contacts etc), if THOSE INVESTIGATIONS LEADS-ITEMS are missing, there was a cover-up in COVID pandemic bioterrorism Conspiracy.Trump should have deleted, shredded or trashed away THOSE INVESTIGATIONS LEADS-ITEMS before he left the White House in early 2020, THOSE INVESTIGATIONS LEADS-ITEMS should not be ignored. Covid bioterrorism pandemic have wrongfully killed millions of People in the US and in Worldwide Countries. Covid bioterrorism Conspiracy in 2020 was intentionally masterminded in the shadows by Federation of American-Citizens Scientists (White Jewish Leadership, Republicans, Independents; Edward Snowden Affiliates) and their Associates Worldwide; Spies who Bush Administration awarded spy-Contracts and millions of dollars in 2002 to 2007. Wuhan bio-Lab leakage was not the origin of Covid. Trump and his GOP Allies lied on China as the source of Covid virus, China is a Victim like all other Countries Worldwide which have been affected with Covid pandemic. According to Peter Navarro's comments in KABC News two weeks after Wuhan Covid outbreak in 2020, he said "we had Coronavirus briefing at the White House in November 2019, we were scared to go to sleep at night after the briefing". That means Peter Navarro, Trump and others who attended Covid Briefing at the White House in November 2019 possibly at night time; before Wuhan Covid outbreak in 2020, they should have knowledge in Covid bioterrorism Conspiracy in 2020 and the true source of Covid virus but they covered up. The same bioterrorist-Criminals; Federation of American Scientists and their Associates (Chase Security Company Owners; Republicans) masterminded in the shadows Global Mexico H1N1 bioterrorism Conspiracy in 2009, they used Homeland Security Clearances in travelling to Cancun Mexico; that way the Border Authorities couldn't inspect their carry-on bags or luggages. Let Authorities or the Lower Courts as the SCOTUS explained; investigate in details so that JUSTICE IS SERVED.

    I worked in the restaurant industry for 20 years as a bartender and a waitress. It was very hard to transition to another industry. I found that employers didn't understand the value that I bring. "The ability to resolve conflicts between teams and customers"- that is what I did as a waitress everyday. There are workers out there. We just have to open our minds to give people the chance to show their skills and learn a new craft.

    It's funny that age-ism is only a problem when it's directed towards older generations. As if they haven't been doing the same thing to younger generations their entire lives. But it's okay because you're old so you've somehow earned a greater value through your longer period of existence. Get fucked 😂😂😂😂

    I can so attest to this! During the economic downturn in 2008/2009 and companies were downsizing--the only employees at my company that were "let go" were all over 45. Every single one of us was over 45. I could pinpoint the reason for this, but it mostly had to do with the passing of Obamacare. And I was desperately looking for a job previous to this. I had over 15 years of experience working as a cashier as well as AP/AR experience. I applied for a job as a cashier in the repairs department of a car dealership. At the time, they could ask you when and where you graduated from high school. They saw that I graduated in 1980 which made me over 40. I received a letter telling me that I didn't get the job because I WASN'T QUALIFIED--not that I was overqualified but that I wasn't qualified. I can only think of 2 logical reasons: 1) they figured I'd want more money because of my work experience or 2) they wanted some 18-year-old who looked good in a short skirt. I was absolutely qualified for the job because the job description stated they'd prefer a candidate with "some cashiering experience". I didn't get the job because I was middle aged.

It is absolutely vital that we know what these models are trained on, and how they extrapolate information from the data we feed them! Overall, the optimism on how these tools enable us to more deeply understand and synthesize information has been so brilliant to hear! I love this podcast so much! Please keep this up 🫶
