PassPorts Please! China expands travel restrictions on AI researchers.
Top AI engineers and researchers are being asked to surrender their passports to their employers. China's government has classified frontier AI as a strategic national asset. https://thenextweb.com/news/china-expands-travel-curbs-private-ai-talent
This is similar to what we will see in the Quantum industry as detailed in this TechAptitude post. https://techaptitude.substack.com/p/quantum-technologies-and-geo-politics?r=vn8b8

"Trump is a failed dictator — but he is still president, and he’s propped up by stooges like Blanche who are ready and willing to make good on his most rage-fueled and irrational desires. The next two years, therefore, may be among the most trying of the slow-motion disaster that has been the Trump Era."

"Just as Hitler’s failures led him to resent the German people ever more strongly and destructively, we can expect Trump’s growing frustration to result in ever more nihilistic and destructive actions as his term moves toward its end."

"the two share a late-regime obsession with rewriting history and building monuments to justify their utterly failed rule.
Hence the increasingly frantic effort of a crew of cronies, now being led by Blanche, to validate Trump’s victimhood thesis."

When Arnold Schwarzenegger became governor of California, he offered to issue new degrees with his signature to state college & university graduates who had ones signed by Ronald Reagan. He sent each of us a letter making the offer, and I guess a lot of people took him up on it. I'm hoping that'll be the case with #passports bearing King Trump's image when and if we once again have an actual president.

Benjamin Parker reports on the State Department's plan to put a photo of Trump on US passports, noting that this "would mark yet another U.S. government property upon which the president has plastered his likeness."
As aspiring dictator-strongmen always do, he wants his image and name everywhere. This immortalizes him, apotheosizes him, keeps the cult alive beyond his mortal life.

RUSSIANS CAN’T GET PASSPORTS: MILLIONS STUCK INSIDE Vlog 1358: War in #Ukraine
#Russia’s #passport system is overwhelmed: in #Moscow and other major cities, people cannot even book appointments for international #passports. #Verstka links the bottleneck to a sharp rise in #emigration demand.
You can always buy me a coffee for more video projects to come:

"Trump said Sunday that #ICE agents will be sent to #US airports Monday, with border czar Tom “Bag of Cash” Homan leading the effort"
And here it is: the gloves are finally, formally off
#ICE is nothing less than #Trump's personal #Gestapo
To be deployed and unleashed and inflicted upon the #USPublic at Trump's whim for work that has nothing to do with ICE's formal role:
#Immigration and #CustomsEnforcement
The vast majority of airport travelers are *not* new #Immigrants coming into the #UnitedStates for the first time
And #International air travelers have already been vetted at their points of departure for #Identification and #Passports
This a deliberate act of pure intimidation
This is #DonaldTrump previewing his personal military force in preparation for the upcoming #2026 #PrimaryElections and ICE assignment to #Democrat-district voting polls nationwide
Which Trump and the #Republicans intend to steal by any and all available methods
Period
Full stop
