All my homies hate Raphael
This time
? I don't see them trying to sneak an AI regulation ban again anytime soon. This is about the strongest bipartisan support against anything I can recall in my life.
Many of the people that voted against this are to blame for many of the other problems we are about to be hit with.
However, of all the scary shit in that bill, this was one of the most concerning to me. Specifically in terms of irreversibility to the damage it would do, the creation of national AI surveillance databases being built across the country, and the kind of environmental and safety regulations that will have to be ignored in order to power them.
The closest thing to hope, I hold for my own state, is that I just hope whatever lesson we ended up serve as in future history books isn't on the same scale or worse than Chernobyl.
I can breathe a little easier knowing that the entire country won't be facing a mandatory federal law demanding they be more like Louisiana in terms of deregulation in order to make a terrible idea actually profitable, regardless of how many people it hurts.
As in Cruz wasn’t a problem this time.
He’s an eternal cunt and will be a problem again.

Why is this foreign born person still in the US? Didn't Trump say he wanted to deport naturalized citizens? Deport ~~Ted~~ Rafael Edward Cruz back to Canada! Send him back!
After all the shit you're giving us to deal with in Canada this would be the final straw that leads to war. He's a product of your culture and his power comes from you, he's your creation.

“I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.”
- John Boehner
„Everyone hates Ted“
- Donald Trump
If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convict you.
―Lindsey Graham
I think this is my favorite GOP quote of all time.
I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.
-Al Franken
"Here's the thing you have to understand about Ted Cruz: I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz."
- Al Franken
Isn’t it funny how Dems chased out Al Franken for that shitty photo, but Republicans rally behind their own sex pests?
"Everyone hated that"
If you want to see how ignorant some voters can be, there is really no better evidence than Ted Cruz.
I followed his recent Senate race in Texas. In a campaign speech, Cruz said he was fighting the elite.
- His father owns an oil company in Canada.
- He attended a private prep school in Houston. His classmates were Bush family kids.
- He attended Harvard University and Princeton
- His wife Heidi Cruz is a top executive at Goldman Sachs
This guy is fighting the establishment? Are you kidding me? 🤦🤦🤦.
You have to remember it's not about facts, it's about feelings. As I always say, we're all susceptible to that to some extent, but the republicans have it bad.
I honestly don't understand how he still gets elected here. I would cry systematic election fraud in Texas but the majority of my parents generation seemingly doesn't vote at all. But their parents who just watch Fox News all day sure fucking do.
Rafael Cruz hates Rafael Cruz so much that he voted against his own amendment.
I only use AI to make shitty furry porn. It needs to be regulated.
lol he even voted against his own plan. Imagine being the schmuck who was the one dissenting vote

So what I'm hearing is this is a bill to distract from more important things and to delay.

I thought the 1 vote had to be ~~the Zodiac killer~~ Ted Cruz, but no:
The one vote backing moratorium on state AI laws came from Thom Tillis, not Cruz.
Did he just not get the memo, or is he that paid off?
So unless my math is wrong there are 100 senators. And if the only yes vote was my own lovely senator Tillis, Cruz voted against his own thing?!?
Yup, even Cruz voted against it. Reality is truly stranger than fiction.
maybe check from openai didn't clear

🤣🤣🤣
So... Ted voted against his own bill?
ah Ted Cruz... the infected pimple in the ass that is the GOP
Ted Cruz can go fuck himself.
Stop giving broadband funds globally, it's just squandered, it needs to be manually voted on and approved per project.
