It's not that "no one was ready" it's that literacy efforts don't get funded, fact-checking is now "censorship", grants got killed, taxing companies to mitigate social impact =nonstarter in the US, politicians focused on the wrong things. Trust & social norm breakdown the are major non-tech issues.

The US will invade Venezuela just like Russia invaded Ukraine. And just like Europe (and for awhile the US) armed Ukraine to defend itself, Russia, China, and Iran will do the same for Venezuela. The fault always lies with the aggressors.

This seems like the ultimate Russian play. They have probably been privately goading Trump into attacking Venezuela for their oil just so they can bog the US down in a quagmire as the bad guy like they have been with Ukraine. Trump will walk right into it too.

I'm searching Getty Images and found some photos credited to the Boston Herald that redact the faces of ICE/federal agents. They don't redact the face of the guy they're arresting.

I'm curious about the ethics of doing this. I don't think I've ever seen this on Getty before.

This entire article is positive about Trump Gold Cards. It contains positive quotes about it from Trump, Lutnick and a CEO. It contains no quotes from the many critics of the program. This is sandwiched between 6 posts about Erika Kirk. CBS is lost.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

It’s wild how little attention this story has gotten.

This report from Fox doesn’t mention that the killer was enraged that one of the girls had dissed Charlie Kirk, nor the fact that he laughed about it on a stream after cops questioned him but didn’t make an arrest.
Alleged stalker detained then released after girls’ hit-and-run deaths, arrested days later: officials
A 17-year-old charged with murdering two girls in New Jersey was allegedly detained for a short time on Monday before he was arrested on Wednesday.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

The Indiana GOP's new congressional gerrymander failed by a vote of 31-19.

21 Republicans joined the 10 Democrats in voting no.
BREAKING: Indiana Republicans FAILED to pass a new 9-0 congressional gerrymander after enough GOP senators sided with Dems. The GOP's 7-2 map stays in place.

Trump is trying to re-gerrymander maps nationwide. At least 11 Indiana Rs got death threats after he called for primaries—but it still failed

Trump once expressed his admiration for president Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines for the extrajudicial murders of drug traffickers in that country. Now, Duterte finds himself in a cell at the Hague, charged with crimes against humanity for the murder of 76 people he claimed were drug dealers.

As people made their way into a naturalization ceremony, ICE officials stopped 38 of the 100 applicants and told them they wouldn't be leaving with U.S. citizenship. The immigrants — who passed every step in the naturalization process — needed only to take the oath of allegiance to become citizens.

The Democrat in Miami just defeated the Republican ICE cheerleader for mayor. Turns out even in Florida, people are tired of cruelty masquerading as leadership. Republicans had held this seat for the last three decades. Let that…sink in.

The Fourteenth Amendment was rock-solid for 150 years, and now it’s apparently just a suggestion like “don’t microwave fish in the office.”
If the Fourteenth Amendment isn’t real then Section 3 isn’t real either and the justices are suddenly just people in funny clothes.
The Supreme Court Friday agreed to decide whether President Donald Trump can unilaterally limit the constitutional right to citizenship granted to virtually every person born in the United States. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
