s where to look to give some extra control over Venezuela or to learn what bad behavior happened during the Biden administration or something like that. So but I'm very much with Cernovich on the fact that we don't know why these pardons are happening and they don't look they don't look legit. They don't look necessarily corrupt. Not necessarily. We're just left with the mystery and I think we'll keep it that way.

Now, whenever these kind of sketchy pardons happen, somebody always brings up, well, maybe maybe it shouldn't be legal to pardon anybody. And I don't love that idea because there are going to be times when a pardon is the thing that creates justice. Not most of the time, but it's sometimes. And that's valuable. So but if you're going to allow pardons at all, you have to live with the fact that they're not going to always be ones you like. And indeed, probably most of them will be ones you hate. So if you think pardons should be a thing, you have to live with a little bit of discomfort if you're observing it. And I have a little bit of discomfort. Well, actually, more than a little bit. The recent pardons, they really raise some questions. But since I don't distrust Trump in the sense that I don't think he's selling it, there must be something he's getting out of it because he doesn't leave free money on the table. Let me put it this way. He would know, Trump would know that he's going to get push back from these sketchy looking pardons, but he did it anyway. Does he ever leave money on the table that other people could pick up? Because this would be just money that his enemies could pick up. He's just giving them an easy shot. Oh, look, I did this sketchy pardon and then they're going to make days of headlines about it. So when does Trump ever do something where he's just giving away money? In this case, money being not literally money. He never does. So we have to assume that he or the country or the administration are getting something in return. And I don't think it's money. So we'll see. Maybe we'll never know.

Well, Microsoft has dropped its AI sales targets because people were not being able to sell them. Who would have guessed that? I would. So from the beginning, fairly early on, I've been saying that AI is a little bit overdone, a little bit overrated, and that it's hard for me to imagine that people will buy it when it hallucinates. And I've got a feeling that was Microsoft's problem. Hey, we've got this AI agent that will change everything in your company. Why don't you buy it? Does it hallucinate? What does it hallucinate? Stop mumbling. Does it hallucinate? Yes. Well, I don't want it. I imagine that's how the sales calls go. That as soon as you find out it hallucinates and as soon as you find out that it would be dangerous or you wouldn't want to connect it to your other apps, what does it do
