Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.

Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections

The Washington Post sacked all of its Middle East correspondents a couple of weeks ago. Useful.

I call bs

This was precisely what Anthropic tried (and failed) to obtain

Why would the DoD grant OpenAI the same conditions that it refused to Anthropic?

Shortly after the first set of explosions, Iranians received bursts of notifications on their phones, not from the government advising caution, but from a prayer timing app called ‘BadeSaba Calendar’ which has been downloaded 5 million times from the Google Play Store.

The messages arrived in quick succession over a period of 30 minutes, starting with the phrase ‘Help Has Arrived’ at 9:52 am Tehran time. No party has claimed responsibility for the hacks.

Screenshots shared with WIRED Middle East show messages urging Iranian military personnel to surrender their weapons with the promise of amnesty. It also urged army personnel to join “the forces of liberation” and to “defend your brothers.”

Right-wing Americans who once relished President Donald Trump's promises of ending foreign military adventures are now furious that bombs are raining down on Iran.

Why Attack Iran? Our Authoritarianism and Our Corruption

We must get away from the propaganda and ask why this might be happening, in light of the facts that we do know.

These facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the POTUS.

OpenAI strikes deal with Pentagon after Trump orders government to stop using Anthropic On X, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said he had moved to label Anthropic as a "supply chain risk" and cancel Defense business with the company.

One way to read the AI/Pentagon news from last night (I covered it but didn't skeet) is that the Department of Defense wants AI to automate weapons and/or spy on Americans and that Anthropic would have the best AI to do that, but OpenAI is at least the second-best so they'll just use that instead.

If you are an elected official that opposes military strikes on Iran, the head of CBS News will clap back at you. Will be interesting to see if she does this for other objectors, or just Muslim politicians, but it does raise the question how much her views of the Middle East shape the news.

WOW. 19 people, all who were imprisoned and mistreated in a foreign prison at the direct command of the United States, are brave enough to say “We are innocent, and we will endure more time imprisoned to prove that.”

I can only admire the enormous courage such a move takes.

Trump's war with Iran spells out 5 points very clearly:

1. This is an aggressive war of choice that risks a regional crisis

2. It is an unconstitutional and illegal war

3. Republicans’ refusal to take their constitutional obligations seriously now has allowed multiple illegal, open-ended wars

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

If FIFA did, for some reason, regularly give out a Peace Prize, you’d think #1 on the list of criteria for potential winners would be “do not start a war with another nation in the World Cup, directly before the start of the World Cup”

Elon Musk’s Secret Web of Companies in Texas

NEW: Elon Musk said he was “selling almost all physical possessions” when he moved to Texas. Nope. Instead, he has secretly amassed land and penthouses and planes and mansions. We just had to spend months digging through private company records to find it all. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/27/t...

"No new wars" really just meant "f*ck Ukraine" and everyone knew it.

What the Father of Black History Can Teach Us About Technology Danielle A. Davis Canty, Esq., says that while technology may be miseducated, we do not have to be.

Historian Carter G. Woodson showed that when systems are designed and governed without the people most affected, inequality is not a mistake – it is the expected result. Technological inequality, in this context, is not surprising. It is predictable, writes Danielle A. Davis Canty.

Electric car drivers ‘spied on by government’ through phones Two-year mass surveillance project commissioned by Department for Transport under Tories

“At the DfT’s request, O2 trawled people’s web browsing habits, including those of children, to identify “EV users”. … It then tracked those people’s physical movements around the country and sent “anonymised and aggregated” data to the government.”

Shabana Mahmood vows to stick with hardline migration policies after byelection defeat

Home secretary will defy ‘plain wrong’ calls from unions and leftwing MPs that she is alienating Muslim voters

Shabana Mahmood vows to stick with hardline migration policies after byelection defeat Home secretary will defy ‘plain wrong’ calls from unions and leftwing MPs that she is alienating Muslim voters

By taking a far-right approach to immigration policy, cracking down on rights and placing it high on the agenda, Labour has not just turned its own voters away

It has mainstreamed far-right politics and strengthened Reform, both politically and electorally

Them doubling down should be unforgivable

Netblocks reports Iran is under a total Internet blackout. It is unclear if this is due to the attacks, cyber warfare, or action by Iranian security to suppress information.
