Pope summed up my whole-ass research agenda.

Screenshot: "Free access to information is a pillar that upholds the edifice of our societies, and for this reason, we are called to defend and guarantee it," he said.
"Current events call for particular
discernment and responsibility, and it is clear that the media has a crucial role in forming consciences and helping critical thinking".
The pope also spoke about the challenges facing news media with the rise of AI.
"Artificial intelligence is changing the way we receive information and communicate, but who directs it and for what purposes? We must be vigilant in order to ensure that technology does not replace human beings, and that the information and algorithms that govern it today are not in the hands of a few," he said.
He nominated "transparency of sources of ownership, accountability, quality and objectivity" as key to news media.

Did I ever tell you guys about the time, during Trump's first term, that I wore an ANTIFA Super Soldier patch and a custom black leather face mask into DHS headquarters? Nobody seemed concerned at the time...

Can you imagine the absolute shit fit if Obama or Biden had sent California National Guard to occupy Texas, Kansas, and Nebraska under the guise of their bullshit abortion laws amounting to an "insurrection" against them and their policies?

Wonder how "immune" this SCOTUS would have found them...

Oh, they'll back pay the military and LEOs. And that's if they don't just keep paying them with the tens of billions they illegally impounded last FY. Why do you think they compromised Treasury's payment system? So Feds can't stop illegal payments from going out. You don't starve your guard dogs...

@jeremymberg.bsky.social and @gregggonsalves.bsky.social, didn't some really smart people we know talk about "Trump's Gift" recently?

"Chinese universities see changes in the US as 'a gift from Trump' that will help them recruit more and higher-caliber talents"
