Chatbots Can Meaningfully Shift Political Opinions, Studies Find

Humans are way too easy to sway.

FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime to redact Epstein files, documents show Bloomberg reporter Jason Leopold sued the FBI and DOJ for the files as part of a Freedom of Information Act request.

Golly gee. Wonder what they were redacting in November?

Sen Rand Paul says, “There is a difference between being accused of being a bad guy and being a bad guy. It is called 'the presumption of innocence.' It is called 'due process.' It is called, basically, justice our country was founded upon.” Yet his party continues to support a dictator's murders...

Reuse and return schemes could help eliminate plastic pollution in 15 years, says report Pew Charitable Trusts finds plastic pollution will more than double globally by 2040 unless action taken

Big Oil propaganda (BO BS). Recycling, reuse and return puts the onus on consumers, not perps and has proven to not work. Few companies buy this garbage to make new stuff out of because the business model doesn't pencil out. BO is set to double production over the next few years! BAN PLASTIC NOW.

The plan: make money by wrecking things. Cryptocurrency prices tumbled causing stock prices with crypto reserves to fall. Alt5 Sigma shares have gone down 75% since it created its $WLFI reserve. Although Trumpolini's stake in Alt5 Sigma lost value, he made hundreds of millions from its $WLFI buy.

New York Times Sues Pentagon Over First Amendment Rights

Big Media trying to repair its reputation as a gaggle of fascist lackeys. Boardroom dog and pony show. Do reporting that matters, silly geese. You got America in this mess, now get us out!

San Francisco Sues Ultraprocessed Food Companies

Yes! Shingles potato chips!

U. of Alabama Suspends Black and Female Student Magazines, Citing D.E.I. Guidance

Sexism and racism. Hallmarks of the Trumpolini regime.

Republican Wins Tennessee House Race After a Trump-Led Rescue Mission

Sorry, folks, personally I do not believe this slime ball actually won the election. Harbinger of 2026 midterms when it will "look like" a Repugnant who was losing will be "saved by Trumpolini."

Is Venezuela a major drug-trafficking route to the US? Nope. A 2020 report by the DEA estimates 74% of cocaine reaching the US arrives via the Pacific and only 8% on fast boats from the Caribbean. But Venezuela has BO--the largest proven oil reserves in the world. What Big Oil wants, Big Oil gets.

🔥 AL GORE: “We already have way too many subservient cowards in Congress, the last thing we need is to send another one (Van Epps 🤖) — you can make tomorrow the turning point for our country by getting out and voting for Rep. @aftynbehn.bsky.social .” #TN7

US-Russia talks may pile pressure on Kyiv to make concessions, says EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says negotiators should not ‘lose focus that it’s actually Russia who has started this war’

EU, the bear is coming for you.

Upon resigning conservative federal judge Mark Wolf quoted the Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney who wrote the 'longed-for tidal wave of justice can rise up and hope and history rhyme.' I want to do all I can to make this such a time." He could no longer do it in Trumpolini's injustice department.

Trump Announces Pardon for Honduran Ex-President Convicted in Drug Case

Un-f--king-believable... This slimeball got 45 years for partnering with cocaine traffickers. Wonder how much he paid Trumpolini to pardon him? It simply could not get more obvious than this.

Small changes to ‘for you’ feed on X can rapidly increase political polarisation Study finds that a week of political content can bring about a shift in views that previously would have taken three years

Yup.

ADHD diagnoses are growing. What’s going on? More children and adults are being diagnosed with ADHD in some countries. Science is helping to understand why — and how best to provide support.

What's going on? Jeez... A crisis of "over diagnosis" pushed by Big Pharma, that's what. ADHD can be too much sugar in a child's diet, symptoms of C-PTSD, i.e. bullying disorder, or parents and instructors who want docile children.

Anguish for the Families of Two Guard Troops

These young people shouldn't have been in DC as sitting ducks for anyone angry at the USA military to shoot. (Note: there's probably a lot.) This set up is on Trumpolini and the Repugnant party. The user/losers don't care whom they hurt as long as it serves as clickbait for their dog and pony show.

Foreign interference or opportunistic grifting: why are so many pro-Trump X accounts based in Asia? A new feature on the social media platform formerly known as Twitter allows users to see the location of other accounts. It has resulted in a firestorm of recriminations

Duh. Because easily-manipulated people support Trumpolini, so if you want to grift or play havoc with US politics, find a population that has already proven they are eminently fools.

Mark Kelly, "I saw ...posts saying I should be arrested, hanged and put to death. If this is meant to intimidate me ...from holding this administration accountable, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about ...power than ...the Constitution.”

The richest man on earth owns X. The second-richest owns Paramount/CBS and soon Warner Bros Discovery/CNN. The third-richest Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. The fourth The Washington Post and Amazon MGM Studios. Another owns Fox News, Wall Street Journal and the New York Post and you know why.

Tesla’s future lies in robot manufacturing says Elon Musk

How can Muck think there will be "an android in every home by 2030" if most Americans can barely afford groceries?

In '23, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reported the world had developed too much fossil fuel to halt global heating at 2C, its capital assets must be abandoned. But the Cop30 decision didn't mention fossil fuel. Petrostates Russia and Saudi Arabia won their bid to kill our ecosystem.

Holy cow! Dozens of popular MAGA X accounts self-described as from the US are in Nigeria, Thailand, Bangladesh, Turkey and eastern Europe. Three collectively posted 31 false claims about US politics from 9/24 to 10/25. Posing as fan accounts for Ivanka, Barron and Charlie, they have 1.77M followers.

Transparent Election Initiative - Our Fight Against Corporate Money in Politics Join our fight for transparent elections. The Montana Plan uses state constitutional authority to keep corporate money out of politics and restore democracy to the people.

How to beat Citizen's United at the state level. Something has to work, or we will continue to be ruled by a fascist corporate oligarchy going forward. Corporations are not people therefore cannot, by definition, care for the ecosystem which homo sapiens need to survive. SCOTUS was taken hostage...

The grifter pedophile Trumpolini is actively going to bat for Big Oil by eliminating sustainable nonpolluting energy projects that would help save this ecosystem so homo sapiens and other critters might survive past this century on planet Earth. If this is not the height of evil, what is, pray tell?

ICE boosts weapons spending 700% A Popular Information investigation reveals tens of millions in new ICE spending on guns, chemical weapons, and explosives.

Federal judges block Texas from using its new US House map in the 2026 midterms A panel of three federal judges has blocked Texas from using a new congressional map that Republicans drew in hopes of picking up five U.S. House seats.

Throw out the maps. The US never was a democracy, but a private-property republic founded on white male farmers' ownership of land and chattel (nonwhites, women and kids). Since Citizen's United, corporations (walking talking private property) are "people." Time for true democracy for humans only.

Jailhouse shock: Brazil coup monger Bolsonaro finally faces life behind bars The former president’s far-right supporters have discovered a new interest in prison conditions as incarceration looms
