Do Elected Officials Even Exist? Who's actually running the government?
Front Page Magazine ^ | December 17, 2023 | Daniel Greenfield

During Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s incapacity, we learned that her office was running as usual. So was Sen. Fetterman’s office. Staffers went on issuing press releases, taking positions and co-sponsoring bills on their behalf.

Senator Feinstein just introduced the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2023 to mandate abortion nationwide while outlawing state restrictions on late-term abortion when babies can feel pain… but Feinstein isn’t really introducing or sponsoring bills, her staffers, who announced her retirement without her knowing about it, are legislating in her name.

This is routine. Our government isn’t run by elected officials. And sometimes the elected officials aren’t even there. It’s just AI.

Susan Zhuang, who was elected to represent a newly created Asian-majority district in southern Brooklyn, admitted she uses popular AI tools like ChatGPT after being confronted by The Post about AI-generated answers she submitted for a recent Q and A interview with the media outlet City & State.

When asked, “What makes someone a New Yorker?” Zhaung sent back a 101-word response that began with, “New York City, the concrete jungle where dreams come true. It’s not just a place, it’s a state of mind. Being a New Yorker means having an unstoppable hustle, unbreakable resilience and unrivaled independence. …”

Hank Sheinkopf, a longtime New York-based Democratic political consultant, said he’s heard of elected officials using AI for campaigning — but never to respond to general questions from reporters or other members of the public. He fears it “could be the wave of the future.”

“It is very troubling,” he said. “We’d be better off with robots in public office – at least we would know what we got.”

I guess. Between staffers and AI, to what extent do we even have anything resembling the government envisioned by the Founding Fathers?

I was listening to some classic Rush from January 22, 2009. Hussein was selected, immaculated, but didn’t know Jack Squat without his teleprompter. Whitehouse Counsel Greg Craig had to explain to Hussein and the world what Hussein was doing and signing.

A little later Robert Re-e-e-eich announced that most of the so-called stimulus $$$ would go to ANYONE but white males. Further proof that Hussein and his minions are in charge today.

OOH I love to dance a little side step, now they see me-now they don’t,

OOH I love to sweep around the wide step, cut a little swathe and lead the people on!

It’s a big club, and you’re not in it.

I know you're quoting some stupid "comedian" ... and I know he was stupid, because that's a stupid thing to say. The Ruling Class Cabal is in fact a very small club, relative to the general population.

It sounds like “Hussein” was just a minion himself.

Current Congress has VERY little Intelligence. It’s mostly an artificial place.

That sort of situation can’t be legal. Couldn’t Republicans just ignore most of this like it was never really done, because it very possibly wasn’t?

Definitely not at a national level. Local, probably. The uniparty gets who they want. The charade continues.
