From the right: Musk Could Save AI from Lefty Bias

The left’s “anger toward the disruptive billionaire, Tesla founder and now Donald Trump bestie,” Elon Musk, will only “get worse,” cheers Liz Peek at The Hill.

“Musk’s growing investment in AI” can “likely prevent progressives from establishing a monopoly on revisionist history, in which the U.S. can be portrayed as a nation born in racism and sustained by exploitation and patriarchy.”

With chatbots like ChatGPT showing a lefty bias, “Musk is busily creating his own artificial intelligence firm,” xAI.

“Just as X became a loathed rival to Meta and TikTok as a source of information, so will xAI present users with a distinctly different view of the world.”

“Musk’s emergence as a player in the AI world is reassuring, in that balance is important.” 

Elex analyst: Democrats’ Woes Not Just Messaging

“Democrats and their media allies acknowledged mistakes were made” in the 2024 campaign, but claim “their real problem was a failure to communicate,” observes Real Clear Politics’ J. Peder Zane.

No: “Polls show a large majority of Americans have lost faith in their ability to govern effectively,” after “Democrat-run states and major cities have distinguished themselves not only for their poorly run schools, high crime, and massive debts, but also their corruption.”

Moreover, “their embrace of the woke agenda showed that the party was not just wrong about certain issues, but in the grips of an unhinged ideology.”

Indeed, Trump won “because many Americans remembered” his policies as effective.

Now “Democrats need their own Trump — a wrecking ball who will challenge the party’s dogmas.”

Liberal: How Dems Can Win Again

“Democrats have lost the plot in the view of more and more nonwhite, especially nonwhite working-class, voters. How can they find it again?” asks The Liberal Patriot’s Ruy Teixeira.

“Sever the party’s connection to unpopular and unworkable social policies and re-establish a focus on the material welfare of working-class voters” by moving to “to forcefully denounce said policies and unambiguously break from the forces in the party that are pushing these policies” on the border, crime, and social issues like gender surgeries for kids.

As for those who insist “being a Democrat is inseparable from being a progressive as they define it,” well: “It’s high time for Democrats to turn the tables” and throw the various identitarian factions “under the bus.” 

Senility watch: Biden’s Wobbly Final Months

“As wars worsen” and Joe Biden enters his last months as president, the current moment is “especially perilous,” warns the Washington Examiner’s Bryon York.

“In the last few days, Biden has removed restrictions on Ukraine’s use of the Army Tactical Missile System” and “Ukraine promptly fired U.S.-made missiles deep into Russian territory.”

Putin has promised retribution. While these developments “would be alarming in any context,” they “come as the 82-year-old President Biden’s apparent cognitive decline continues.”

Pushed out of the presidential race by Dem power-brokers, he “appeared to play almost no role in his final international conferences as president, the G20 summit in Brazil.”

Biden’s “final, wobbly months as president” make for “a particularly dangerous period.”

Eye on DC: A Restoration of Order

“What we’re seeing with the swap of [Matt] Gaetz for [Pam] Bondi is actually a restoration of regular order,” argues National Review’s Jim Geraghty of the Trump attorney-general drama.

For all the “doomsaying from Trump opponents” on how “congressional Republicans are a bunch of spineless lickspittles who would gladly use the U.S. Constitution as kindling just to see the warm glow reflected in the eyes of Trump,” plainly “there are some lines Senate Republicans aren’t willing to cross.”

Trump can “be an effective president. He just needs to be surrounded by a good team, and the Republican Senate majority may need to periodically save Trump from his own worst instincts.”
