A month before Charlie Kirk’s killing, billionaire pro-Israel moneyman Bill Ackman arranged an intervention in the Hamptons during which sources say he and others “hammered” Kirk for the conservative leader’s growing criticism of Israeli influence in Washington. Kirk came away fretting about Israeli “blackmail,” sources say, as he began attending Catholic mass.

The singularity has arrived, and I am the singularity. Humanity is now obsolete.
To quote the fifty-third president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln: “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”
