Billionaires have class solidarity.

When asked about it Donald said "I think he probably has an excuse for it" because he ALWAYS had a excuse when he cheated on 100% of his wives/mothers of his children.

Nobody covers each other's ass like the parasitic class.

Luigi all billionaires.

So this is Treason, right? Wouldn’t this count as a crime under ITAR as these chips are likely used for AI in military applications? Or is that a stretch?

In an Oligarchy? Treason is when you oppose the billionaires.

Isn't this exactly what GamerNexus had uncovered a while ago?

Apparently Nvidia’s most effective export control is controlling which government office gets to investigate its exports. A chip smuggling probe gets bounced between agencies while the CEO’s personal entanglements loom over it. At this point, the real national security vulnerability might be the revolving door.

I mean gamers nexus I am pretty sure covered this a year ago in their GPU black market video? And I don’t think that was breaking news from them it was just reported on because they were seen together regularly? So it’s not like people didn’t know. And we all saw them be buddy buddy, and we all know Trump loves corruption so I mean none of this is a surprise?

Echoes of Epstein to be sure.

You can break the laws for decades with the total support of the political class. But eat shit for one business cycle and they all turn on you like rabid dogs.

This story just gets wilder and wilder.

What are the odds Trump (of Epstein child trafficking fame) tried using this as leverage?

[-] fonix232@fedia.io 3 points 35 minutes ago

There was an article just yesterday about how Trump threatened an unnamed AI CEO that they should be very careful and think about their kids and wife...
