NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Weirdest AI hallucination I've ever seen:
"The name 'JDTic' is a tongue-in-cheek reference to John Dingell's long tenure in office, highlighting the long-lasting effects of this particular kappa antagonist. It's a bit of a quirky way to name a drug, but it's memorable!"

Wut

It's weird how "chemical imbalance" and "brain dysfunction" are just elided into one thing

Huge development in North Carolina: as counties finish their counts, Democratic Justice Allison Riggs, who was trailing by thousands of vote this am, is now ahead by… *106* votes statewide.

Awaiting final count everywhere.

The fact that he convinced Trump to pardon that seal who was convicted of war crimes including stabbing a captive child is really all you need to know about him

Don't forget he's the guy that convinced Trump to pardon that seal who was convicted of war crimes for, inter alia, stabbing a captive boy

Sorry, I'm not offering an opinion about the legality is what I mean, just agreeing that either way it's bad

It may be legal but still shitty
