I’ve noticed a lot of grok requests in replies on x that are just getting ignored the last few days. also saw a clip of Elon saying surgeons will essentially be not needed bc of his robots within 4-5 yrs.
Buddy of mine is a reformed capitol rat but still finds himself in the halls for special lege lobbying on occasion. Knows his shit. Says Mayes is a dangerous MF in terms of self funding, true believer, intelligence and political savvy.
