Actor from 'The Chosen' says James Talarico is more like Jesus — and Pat Gray is not buying it

2 weeks 6 days ago


Playing an apostle on "The Chosen" apparently comes with important opinions about who best represents Jesus in American politics.

Actor Jordan Walker Ross, who portrays Little James on the hit series, is throwing his support behind Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, arguing that the Democrat’s policies better reflect Christ’s teachings.

But BlazeTV host Pat Gray isn’t even close to being convinced.

“As a lifelong Texan, I’ve seen my state’s elected officials claim to be followers of Jesus’ teachings. However, their policies and actions have rarely aligned with those beliefs. Jesus taught his followers to take care of children, the sick, the homeless, and the immigrants,” Ross said in a post on Instagram.


“Right, His followers,” Gray comments. “He didn’t tell the government to do that. How is it that you don’t get that? If in fact you are a follower of Jesus, how is it that you think that the government is supposed to take care of that?”

“James Talarico has given me more hope for my state’s future than I’ve ever felt. Having played an apostle on TV for the last eight years, I have gotten to re-enact and hear many of Jesus’ sermons and teachings, up close and personal,” the post continued.

“And James Talarico’s policy proposals are far more in line with those teachings than his opponent or predecessors,” he added.

Ross went on to claim that Talarico’s “track record shows that he is capable of seeing things through.”

“What track record?” Gray asks. “Are you serious? This is really disappointing.”

“So this guy, who says that God is nonbinary, Jesus is a radical feminist, and he’s a Christian who hates Christianity. That guy is your guy for the U.S. Senate in Texas,” he adds.

However, one recent campaign ad might be enough to fight off Little James’ vocal support.

“As a mom of five, there is nothing more important than my children. Every mom in Texas should be worried about James Talarico. James Talarico supports parents being charged with child abuse if they do not support transitioning their children,” Texas mom Miriam said in an ad.

“Let that sink in for a minute. Putting parents in jail if they do not support surgically transitioning their children. If you care about your children, do not vote for James Talarico,” she added.

“Good,” Gray comments.

'Not that intoxicated': Drunk Democrat doubles down on insane remarks about Republicans

2 weeks 6 days ago


Jaime West, an Indiana Democrat running for the Fayette County Council, went viral online over a bizarre Oct. 9 candidate interview on LocalTV3.

Not only did West sloppily express loathing for Republicans and call for them to be fired in a county where President Donald Trump received 77.5% of the vote in 2024; she issued an apparent threat to her political opponents, stating, "We have guns too."

'It's trebled in the last 30 seconds.'

Following widespread speculation that West was a few cards shy of a full deck or had at least been intoxicated, the Democrat appeared on "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on Monday and confirmed the latter was the case.

When asked by the British host whether she'd had a drink before her viral performance, West said, "I had a Coors Light. I had a beer."

Morgan, apparently unconvinced, asked, "One beer or —?"

Upon reflection, West said, "Maybe a couple," then noted that she had been nervous at the time about "going in a room full of Republicans."

Still not buying West's answer, Morgan said, "Jaime, here's your chance to be completely honest and transparent. How many beers did you have?"

"All right," said the Democrat, who is the registered owner of Queen Bee's Cleaning. "Three."

"It's trebled in the last 30 seconds," responded Morgan. "So do you accept you may have been a little intoxicated?"

"Not that intoxicated," she replied. "But I do know what I'm talking about."

The Democrat then claimed that she was completely sober for the interview underway.

Ben Ferguson, the co-host of "Verdict with Ted Cruz" who partook in the panel discussion with Morgan and West, later questioned the size of the Coors Lights that the Democrat had thrown back.

During the segment, Morgan afforded West an opportunity to rephrase or recant the provocative statements she gave in her candidate interview — including her suggestion that elements of MAGA are racist and dumb. Not only did West decline the offer, she doubled down on her previous statements.

West said, "No. I say it all the time. I'm not friends with them [Republicans]. I don't like them. They voted for all of this that's happening and to our country. We have a constitutional crisis!"

Ferguson, who laughed throughout the exchange, chimed in and claimed he is "now a huge advocate for candidates drinking before debates because then we might actually find out what they believe in."

In a comment to IndyStar, West said, "Given that Republicans have held control of the state for over 20 years, it is frustrating to see so many Hoosiers continue to vote against their own interests and harbor hostility toward Democrats."

Top lab's financial data shows the AI bubble is about to pop, says controversial analyst

2 weeks 6 days ago


Since generative artificial intelligence arrived in 2022, analysts have warned that the AI bubble is real and that it could burst at any time. Now, we finally have proof that the end may be closer than we think, thanks to tangible data that is hard to refute.

The early days of generative AI were rife with hype and optimism, with a laundry list of promises from everyone involved, from investors to developers and all in between. Goldman Sachs said AI could boost the global GDP by 7%. Others claimed it would automate repetitive work at businesses to make employees more efficient. AI was even positioned as a lifesaving tool that will find the cure to deadly diseases, including cancer.

‘They’re losing hundreds of millions of dollars. This is most of the AI industry.’

IBM even warned, “Because of the wide-ranging applications and complexity of generative AI, many media reports might lead readers to believe that the technology is an almost magical cure-all.”

It isn’t. Or at least, it hasn’t yet. That is clear in the way that the AI developers still haven’t achieved artificial general intelligence, stopped AI hallucinations, or found reliable ways to sell AI to society, aside from having it do mundane tasks that are easier to do manually, like booking a flight or making a dinner reservation.

In fact, many of the Big AI CEOs and AI proponents are still making the same promises today — that AI will revolutionize the world — eventually. All they need is more money, more time, and more data to feed into the AI machine.

Still, the early promises were too tempting. Investors hopped aboard, dumping nearly $1 trillion globally into research and development, data center infrastructure, and snagging top talent for the frontier AI platforms to continue their work. But after years of AI giants like OpenAI and Anthropic failing to turn a profit, the AI bubble looks poised to burst at last.

In a recent podcast, the CEO of EZPR, Ed Zitron, said he saw the financial books of a major private AI company firsthand. While he didn’t divulge the name of the company in question, he issued a dire warning: “They’re losing hundreds of millions of dollars. Hundreds of millions,” he repeated for emphasis. “This is most of the AI industry."

In Zitron’s estimation, the AI boom is fueled primarily by hype. “This is not something that’s being substantiated by revenues or returns,” he continued.

“People are starting to realize that the math does not work.”

A company called CoreWeave was hit particularly hard by AI’s poor financial performance. Unless you are deeply entrenched in the AI world, you have probably never heard of the company, but CoreWeave is a U.S.-based “neocloud” service provider. Essentially, it rents Nvidia GPUs to artificial intelligence companies and other businesses.

Unfortunately for CoreWeave, a perfect storm of $50 billion in debt, rising interest costs, and concerns over the company’s lack of profitability led to a massive drop in its stock price. CoreWeave is currently down 55% from its 52-week high. All of this makes it harder for CoreWeave to borrow more funds without a huge interest rate attached.

“CoreWeave is arguably one of the best-capitalized, best-connected, best-funded neoclouds out there,” according to Zitron. “Which means anyone raising data center debt right now is both in the toilet and being flushed at the same time.” It’s bad news, both for CoreWeave and smaller neocloud providers trying to stay afloat.

“Even if you think AI is the most important thing ever, there is a point at which this debt is unsustainable against the potential return.”

Anthropic, the maker of Claude, is also under fire after its IPO prospectus document leaked in late September. The numbers were dire, showing that the company spent $42 billion last year and only brought in $4.6 billion in revenue.

As costs continue to go up and AI providers continue to lose money, the AI industry inches closer to a total collapse. It doesn’t matter that the AI models are getting smarter and that those models can be used to build interesting things. At the end of the day, the AI platforms aren’t turning a profit, and that makes it harder to borrow more money to sustain themselves.
