Aunty Kamla's Ministry of Truth
Kamla Persad-Bissessar, the fossilized figurehead of the United National Congress, has once again proven her insatiable lust for power knows no bounds. Her latest harebrained scheme? A Ministry of Artificial Intelligence—an absurd and dangerous proposition that should send shivers down the spine of every citizen in Trinidad and Tobago. This isn’t just a desperate grab for relevance from a washed-up opposition leader; it’s a reckless gambit that threatens to hand transformative technology to a cabal of corrupt, incompetent cronies who couldn’t program a microwave, let alone oversee AI.
Let’s cut through the nonsense: Persad-Bissessar’s track record is a dumpster fire of failure, flip-flops, and self-serving rhetoric. The idea that she could responsibly steward a technology as powerful as AI is laughable—except it’s not funny when you consider the stakes. Just today, the Prime Minister exposed the UNC’s dirty little secret: they’re already dabbling in AI, deploying bots in a vile, racist campaign to spew their divisive propaganda across the digital landscape. This isn’t innovation; it’s weaponization. And they want us to trust them with more control? Please.

The Prime Minister’s revelation only scratches the surface of the rot within Persad-Bissessar’s ranks. Take Ravi Ratiram, one of her loyal lapdogs, who was unceremoniously dumped from Couva North like yesterday’s garbage. Just two days ago, Marsha Walker laid bare the truth: Ratiram is a corrupt stain on an already tarnished party, a man whose stench of dishonesty clings to everything he touches. And this is the caliber of leadership Persad-Bissessar surrounds herself with—senile, out-of-touch, and led by the nose by sleazy opportunists. If this is the team she’s assembling to oversee AI, we’re not just in trouble; we’re doomed.
Artificial intelligence isn’t a toy for political hacks to play with. It’s a transformative force that could reshape our economy, security, and society—if handled with competence and integrity. Persad-Bissessar possesses neither. Her tenure as Prime Minister was a masterclass in mismanagement, and now she’s clawing at relevance with this AI ministry pipe dream. What’s next? Handing the nuclear codes to Jearlean John? The UNC can’t even keep their own house in order—dissidents ousted, candidates swapped like trading cards—yet they want us to believe they’re ready to govern the future?
The hypocrisy is suffocating. Persad-Bissessar rails against crime and corruption when it suits her, but her own party is a cesspool of both. Marsha Walker’s damning words about Padatath aren’t an outlier; they’re a symptom of a leader too feeble or too complicit to root out the decay. And now she wants to oversee AI? This isn’t leadership; it’s a power grab wrapped in a shiny tech buzzword, a Trojan horse for more of the same old UNC chaos.
Trinidad and Tobago deserves better than this senile charlatan and her corrupt posse. AI in their hands wouldn’t just be a disaster—it’d be a betrayal of our future. The Prime Minister’s warning about their racist bot tactics is a red flag we can’t ignore. Persad-Bissessar’s Ministry of AI isn’t a vision; it’s a nightmare. Let’s keep this technology far, far away from her grubby, trembling grasp
