The only way you convince Republicans it’s awful is by reminding Republicans power can be abused in both directions.
The democrats don't tend to abuse power back. The SCOTUS ruled presidents have immunity for prosecution for official acts, while Biden was president. He did nothing with the power.

#257Now the separate question is of collusion or bribery. Which might be illegal but Anthropic has to go to court for that..
And in US bribery aka lobbying is legal as well so honestly. Anthropic is just slow on the uptake.

That's certainly an opinion, but in the US it's not how it works. Doing business with the government does not give the government total power over the company, that would be absurd.
