BREAKING: DOJ to investigate Supreme Court for mortgage fraud.

Trump accuses Supreme Court justices of disloyalty for declaring his tariffs illegal “They’re very unpatriotic and disloyal to our Constitution."

NEW: Trump accused some of the Supreme Court justices of being “unpatriotic and disloyal" after six of the nine justices — including his own appointees — ruled he violated federal law by imposing sweeping tariffs on international goods last year.

That’s literally already the law, but I guess manufacturing outrage is easier than governing.

Not even E.T. could stop everyone talking about Epstein

Data centers could be raising your utility bills—and putting your health at risk—to keep up with their hunger for power. Data centers are gobbling up entire cities' worth of energy, and too often, they're turning to toxic fossil fuels for power. (🧵⬇️)

Star Trek was right—glass hard drives could store data for millennia.

The bartender yells, "I'm cutting you off!"

The Tesla says, "Actually, I'm going to need you to supervise me while I try to drink that again."

A Rivian, a Lucid, and a Tesla autonomously drive into a bar.

The Rivian orders a muddy craft beer.

The Lucid orders a $400 bottle of pristine water.

The Tesla orders a drink, spills it all over the bartender, and shatters the glass. 🧵

If Tesla FSD slams on the brakes for a ghost, and I don't intervene, does that count as a successful safety maneuver or just a successful panic attack?

If a Tesla Robotaxi crashes in the woods, but the safety driver disengaged 0.2 seconds before impact, was it technically a human error?

In order to get elected, @barackobama.bsky.social will start a war with Iran." — Donald Trump, 2011.

"US military prepared to strike Iran as early as this weekend." — CNN, Today.

Just going to leave this here. 🍵🐸

UPDATE: Elon confirms the new "stick suite" has solved FSD. Full autonomy coming later this year!

​"The tapping doesn't lie. We just need to bump into a few more things to learn." 😂 /s

BREAKING: Tesla Unveils Revolutionary "Tactile Navigation" for Robotaxi!

Forget LiDAR and cameras, the future is analog! Leaked footage shows the new Model Y testing its advanced stick-tapping sensor suite. It literally feels the traffic flow.

"Bumping our way to full autonomy, one tap at a time."

This is why we don’t give up.

I finally understand Elon’s sudden pivot to religion. He knows the hardware specs he committed to for Robotaxi, and he realizes he needs a literal miracle for the software to work. 😂

Credit to Elon, promising the impossible and forcing his team to deliver built SpaceX, Tesla, and Starlink.

But that works for engineering execution. FSD is an unsolved research problem. You can't brute-force Level 5.

12 years on, he still hasn't learned the difference.

Yep, I love Elon fans excusing this. 🤦

"But Austin IS the testing", sure, and that test shows 14 crashes in 800K miles, 4-9x worse than humans. WITH a monitor in the car. So why remove them?

Focus on safety first and the product sells itself.

Every major FSD prediction Elon Musk has made since 2013, in one table.

17 promises. 15 not delivered. 1 retracted. 1 partial.

12 years of "next year." Still Level 2 for owners. Limited Level 4 robotaxi pilot in one city.

The tech is real. The timelines are fiction.

Just because the authoritarians have made fascist tech doesn’t mean good parts of tech don’t still exist. *Most* of the internet is still good! Most people making tech around the world are still good and decent. The toxic exceptions are more visible, but we cede them power if we let them define it.

A little chilly in Hay River this morning 🥶

Canada’s new Defence Industrial Strategy will transform our military and defence supply chains — creating good careers at home, opening new markets for our businesses, and equipping the Canadian Armed Forces with the world-class equipment they need to protect Canada and our Allies.

There's a LOT of awful things one can say about Musk, but "The only thing he has ever succeeded on is buying other people's ideas and kicking out the actual innovators from his companies" is just is not true. He very much founded SpaceX, and giving Eberhard sole credit for Tesla is just dumb.

$4 BILLION — So corrupt.

There is no debating this. Anyone who says otherwise is telling on themselves.

Civil rights groups ask court to protect Fulton County voter data seized by FBI The federal government should be expressly banned from copying or sharing the seized records, the groups said.

NEW: Civil rights groups including the NAACP and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law asked a federal court to protect voters’ personal information after the FBI seized ballots and other election materials in a raid on a Fulton County, Georgia election hub last month.

Canada is now the first non-European country to be granted a membership in SAFE. This is a gamechanger program that means Canada can rearm our Canadian Armed Forces members more effectively and scale up our defence industries with more contracts overseas.

NEW: Right-wing influencers have gone viral in recent weeks with videos claiming voter fraud in some states. But their claims are wildly inaccurate and misleading — an attempt to manufacture outrage over false narratives of widespread voter fraud.
