“If a woman dares to show herself in public in any way, then she can and will be sexually harassed with the aid of genAI-driven tools that can easily turn her face into highly realistic pornography” is an absolute red-alarm human rights disaster
The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funded NPR, PBS and hundreds of local radio and TV stations across the U.S. for more than a half-century, said on Monday that its board of directors had voted to dissolve the organization because Congress cut off its federal money.

Miller is absolutely unhinged. And very dangerous.
im genuinely curious if this resonates with voters. this naked appeal to imperialism from a shrieking, shrill man
MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want?

This feels like the weenie peenies have taken control of our government? That their "bring out the big guns" foreign policy is more about their minimal assets than what's best for the American people? That their puppeteers are letting them play with big guns while oligarchs reap huge profits?
What a rotten man.
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

New — I wrote about how corporate media is immediately siding with power in the wake of Trump attacking Venezuela and capturing Maduro, and how journalists need to treat the administration as a hostile entity that’s openly lying to them.

And when someone decides that #Trump has violated international law, that he's a war criminal along with his henchmen, and decide to "extract" him for trial, has #Bondi just given them permission?
At some point, I would love to see an interviewer ask someone from the Trump administration which specific portion of Article II they are relying on.
Pam Bondi: "This was well within the president's Article 2 powers. It was a law enforcement function to arrest indicted individuals in Venezuela."

So these #GOP bastards were mute when #Trump unilaterally demolished a big chunk of We the People's White House but wants to throw every kind of paper shuffling obstacle in the face of honoring the Jan 6th heroes?
Federal law required the Jan 6 plaque to be hung on Capitol grounds by March 2023

It has not been.
