Impeach and remove this lawless man, you fools.
An astounding statement from a federal judge about the executive branch, generally; the Justice Department, more particularly; and these subpoenas, specifically.
The first episode of our weekly podcast rewatch party for The Americans is online, organized by @michellekinney.com and @julieroginsky.bsky.social. We had a ball talking about the era (I'm old enough to remember...) and the show. Do watch:

Donald Trump is surprised at how poorly the Iran War is going — but the news media is covering all of this uncertainty and sham-handedness as if it’s all part and parcel of a normal conflict. Every article needs to start leading with: Trump is lost at sea.

"The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better." - Hegseth on CNN. There are no more quiet parts. It's all said aloud.
(And I'll bet he wouldn't like this shot.)

Major news oulets--Time, Bloomberg, LA Times, NBC, Verge, MIT Review, Platformer, The Information, Coda--take fellows paid $60-110k by Tarbell on staff to report on AI while Tarbell, which has a clear AI agenda, trains the fellows in covering AI.

Breaker reports Time did not disclose that a coauthor of its cover story on Anthropic was a Tarbell fellow, funded by effective altruism AI cultists. I've been cautioning young people tempted by its journalism fellowship to research the funders. #TESCREAL

It seems like it was just yesterday I was grilling burgers on the patio. Because it was just yesterday I was grilling burgers on the patio.
78 degrees yesterday in New Jersey. Snowing now. Ma Nature, make up your damned mind.
Here is an excellent paper that clearly explains the philosophy that guides @yann-lecun.bsky.social's research in AI and his new company, AMI Labs. It also perfectly expresses my complaints about the trope of artificial general intelligence--AGI, or BS for short.

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.
You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.
Best Twitter riposte of the day.
That's the least of it. Start with destroyed schools and white nationalists claiming Christianity and brainwashing young people and fascists in charge.
This is deeply frightening. And for almost 1/3 of Republicans under 50 to openly admit they are racist and a majority of Republican men under 50 to think the Holocaust didn’t happen or was greatly exaggerated, that’s a KKK-NeoNazi breeding ground right there.
Here's the EO that that he says provides the definition of DEI that he used in killing grants. Of course, there is no definition.
Note, too, that the guy moves his lips when he reads.

Do watch. Hilarious if it were not so painful and damaging.

"Anyone concerned with the escalating extremism of the young right should be paying attention..
"More than any political candidate yet, Fishback has managed to bring the paranoid, transgressive, meme-drunk spirit of the right-wing internet into the real world."
“Florida man embraces Nazism to attract ignorant rightwing voters.”
Make them look foolish. Laugh at them. This generation has very thin skin and cares more about appearances than ideology.

This is an astonishing finding in the article:
“The same survey showed that a majority of Republican men under 50 think that the Holocaust either didn’t happen or was exaggerated.”
Good & frightening reporting by Goldberg. She labels his talk "nationalism tinged with socialism, if you will" and a "sneering, adolescent sort of Nazism." Now do Trump.
