    Why do we need a trillion dollar budget for this? We already did those things without doubling our defense spending.

    Just as you didn’t hear from us after Trump’s masterful one-time strike that ended our involvement in the conflict.

    The most incredible part of this is that we are just conceding that we aren’t going to make the military more efficient, we’re just going to intentionally spend more money so we can say we have a trillion dollar defense budget.

    Shocking that Palantir’s CEO would have this opinion. Baffling, even.

    Then the government should just let Anthropic go about their business and stop being little bitches about it.

    I don’t, but I don’t know what the cause is and would be interested in seeing if it’s a systemic problem or specifically a Minnesota one.

    An answer surely exists if you want to prove this.

    If every other state were to have an impossible increase, it might suggest a different root cause.

    lol no. It’s not authoritarian to investigate Medicaid fraud. The states should absolutely be investigating and stopping fraud too, and the federal government is welcome to find out if anybody is on the take.

    Then Trump should use the fucking FBI, dude. Come find me when they charge people for misuse of these autism funds.

    If I’m shown a metric showing a massive increase in spending in Minnesota on a specific item, why is it wrong to ask if this is unique to Minnesota before accusing Minnesota of specifically being bad?

    I’m not pretending it’s noble or novel to be against fraud. But I don’t *want* fraud to happen any more than you do. But we have actual ways of identifying what’s fraud and what isn’t, and it’s not Fox News graphics.

    Likely not, but I am also unfamiliar with national trends.

    The government should investigate the spending for potential fraud and imprison and/or deport anybody who engaged in it?

    How is this an acceptable thing for our government to be saying about what is one of the most important tech companies in our country?

    In saner times you would agree the government shouldn’t retaliate, short of cancelling a contract or whatever.

    If the government wants to work with a company that will do what they ask, they’ll find no shortage of willing suitors. Maybe they shouldn’t be doing all the other shit they’re doing in response to Anthropic saying no and instead just look elsewhere.
