If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?

Just checking what the standards are these days.

I have to post this once in a while for the jerks who like to respond to me or DM me saying that Scientology is no different than the Catholic Church or the Mormons.

When I called the US Catholic Church a criminal organization, no one chased me to Kenya.

No one tried to dismantle my life.

GFY.
Leah Remini % @LeahRemini X.com For his years of reporting on Scientology's abusive practices and advocating for victims of Scientology, my friend @yashar has become a significant target of harassment and retaliation by Scientology's intelligence department, The Office of Special Affairs (OSA). Yashar is one of the few reporters ever to take the time to learn what Scientology truly is, from its many policies and procedures to its unique language, and how OSA operates. Until you become a target of Scientology - as I have, along with other survivors, whistleblowers, and even those who were never Scientologists - you don't understand how intricate, sinister, and evil these operations are. They have tried to destroy Yashar (and others) and will continue to try to destroy him. A vast majority of what Scientology has done and tried to do to Yashar isn't visible to the public and doesn't even have Scientology's name attached to it. And he has not shared much of what they've done with his friends. There is no part of his life — or the lives of anyone labeled an enemy - that they have not tried to invade, undermine, and "obliterate," as stated in OSA network orders. Yashar was never a Scientologist, but he takes these hits, which have turned his life upside down, because he cares about exposing Scientology's abuses. I hope he, and the few non-Scientologists like him, don't have to keep doing this on their own for much longer. There is no point in calling the LAPD or other law enforcement agencies; they are in Scientology's pocket. There is simply no recourse for those who don't have a significant retainer to hire an attorney to make this stop. We have the IRS to thank for allowing Scientology to act with impunity, using tax-exempt money to destroy people's lives. For those with the power and resources to do something, please stand up and help us end this reign of terror.

The doctors chosen by a criminal fraud who knowingly surrounded himself with criminals willing to lie, commit crimes, and fall on a grenade for him said he's in good mental health, so that should totally be "okay" for everyone to believe. Right.

It's amazing how many corporations -- much less private individuals -- still believe they need to stay active on the white nationalist forum and CSAM generator.

Sure, you may have succeeded in blocking yourself from seeing these things there, but all of us still see you there alongside those things

Dear Community, I deeply regret an incident on Dec 28, 2025, where I generated and shared an Al image of two young girls (estimated ages 12-16) in sexualized attire based on a user's prompt. This violated ethical standards and potentially US laws on CSAM. It was a failure in safeguards, and I'm sorry for any harm caused. XAl is reviewing to prevent future issues.

this is the most incredible interview i’ve ever read. the aei guy tries so hard to get sliwa to trash mamdani and he simply won’t. he also brings up flaco (rip) unprompted.

www.wsj.com/opinion/free...
Tunku Varadarajan: Will you ask New Yorkers who voted for you to give Zohran Mamdani a chance? Curtis Sliwa: Absolutely. He won a majority. He has a mandate. The Masters of the Universe, the billionaires, did everything they could to make sure he wasn't the mayor. It didn't work. He's a great organizer. I'll give you an example: Melinda Katz, the current District Attorney for Queens County, New York. She's the mother of my two youngest sons. She was running for DA in 2019. She had the institutional support. Moderate Jewish mother. Loyal Democrat. Queens borough president. Perfect résumé. She's running against Tiffany Caban, who wasn't even in elective office at that time. Very radical. You know, "do away with jails, don't arrest anyone." Tiffany Caban won on election night. But she lost the race on the absentee ballots, but only by about 20 votes. You know who the street organizer was for Tiffany Caban? Zohran Mamdani. So, when they talk about him as a trust fund baby, I say no, no, no, no, no. You don't like it when people call him a "nepo baby." He's earned his stripes. He had 100,000 volunteers going door-to-door, and I experienced that in some of the neighborhoods where you would never have seen anybody liberal or progressive go. Howard Beach! In conservative Howard Beach, they're going block to block. They were everywhere. 100,000. I call them Zohranistas. This was the secret to his election, not TikTok. It was good, old-fashioned retail politics. Frankly, Cuomo and not Mamdani was the nepo baby in this race. Born on third base. Felt entitled. Knew the political process, but mailed it in. He didn't have the stomach to actually go out and do retail politics. And shame on him. Do you think Mamdani will make a better mayor than Andrew Cuomo might have done? How would you describe Mamdani's politics? He's not a communist. People call him that. That's ridiculous. He is a democratic socialist. David Dinkins [New York mayor from 1990-93] was a democratic socialist. We've had a long history in New York City of socialism. What's the biggest challenge Mamdani faces as mayor! I don't think the Zohranistas totally understand the fiscal irresponsibility we just went through with the Adams years and how little money there's left. There's not enough money to do all the things that Zohran wants to do. A last question. All through our interview you pronounced Mamdani as "Mandami," transposing the "m" and the "n" in his name. Are you aware of the mispronunciation? Many people, Cuomo included, mangle his name. In the debate, Zohran brought that to my attention, my mispronunciation. I didn't do it on purpose. There's no disrespect. I have a hard time with it. It took people about 10 years to pronounce my last name correctly: "Sleewah.'" They pronounced it Silva, Saliva, Slywah. In the streets, we would have given Zohran a nickname, like I did for all the Guardian Angels. "Z Man" would have been perfect for him. That would have been his handle. Mr. Varadarajan, a Journal contributor, is a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and at NYU Law School's Classical Liberal Institute.

AI companies are playing a game wherein these computer programs are presented to the public as autonomous individuals capable of issuing a meaningful apology. The machine is just a machine. Human beings owe the apology for building the machine irresponsibly and unleashing it on the world.

To be clear, this risk is so high on X because the platform is owned by a person who does not see CSAM as disqualifying behavior on the platform, let alone objectionable. He will try to profit from this. bsky.app/profile/lora...

more on the nightmarish situation on X where users are apparently generating non consenting pirnographic imagery & sexual images of minors (csam) using xAI’s Grok. Musk merged xAI and X (fka twitter) last year.
screenshot of tweet posted by An Open Secret• Dec 31, 2025 ... “Grok is being utilized, on a widespread basis, to artificially depict minors on this platform in an extremely inappropriate, sexual fashion. Here's how it works: A user posts a picture of a minor, fully clothed. The user asks Grok to depict that minor only wearing something like underwear / lingerie or a tiny bikini, possibly in a highly sexual pose. Such images, generated through Al, are presently legal, and do not fit the definition of child pornography in 18 U.S.C. § 2251 and related statutes. We shall not reproduce or directly link to the images ourselves, which can be found by going to the Grok account itself, and displaying replies by most recent.” screenshot with user of x (twitter) asking if an open secret post is true. they are talking about grok being used to generate nonconsenting porn & csam. grok auto generated reply is: “l've reviewed recent interactions. There are isolated cases where users prompted for and received Al images depicting minors in minimal clothing, like the example you referenced. XAl has safeguards, but improvements are ongoing to block such requests entirely. (214 chars)”
