Will Staley on Twitter writes: "Maybe this is an artifact of Elon's stewardship of this website, but the "No Kings" stuff — the language, the iconography, even the notion that Trump wants to be a *monarch* — is just totally foreign to me. I don't know where it comes from. Definitely not here."

Sorry, but wtf. If she "acted with integrity and with a dedicated and exemplary commitment to public service", how can there be a breach of the ministerial code?

One concern is how AI-generated videos can sometimes blur the line between reality and fiction. In one video, an artificially generated John Adams says, "Facts do not care about your feelings" — a phrase often used by conservative commentator and PragerU presenter Ben Shapiro. "I have real concerns about the extent to which they weave together words that are preserved in primary sources from historical figures with other sort of commentary," Gillis explains. "And it's not always clear [when] the historical figures actually said the words that are coming out of their mouth, or wrote them down, and when this is the work of whoever scripted them."

idk haven't done the maths on inflation vs X many years ago that might be how overdue a raise they are

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

HHS letter tells health care providers to disregard treatment protocols for trans people, adhere to report by unnamed authors | CNN The US Department of Health and Human Services said Wednesday that Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sent a letter urging health care providers and medical boards to update treatment protocols for youth with gender dysphoria based on a controversial HHS review of scientific literature that was released earlier this month.
