Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

U.S. Senators Say They Spoke With Rubio About Trump’s Ukraine Peace Plan Who Denied It Is A U.S. Plan
Senators said Rubio told them the peace plan Trump is pushing Kyiv to accept is a “wish list” of the Russians and not the actual U.S. plan.

More footage from the Shatura Power Plant strike highlights the scale of the assault, with hits igniting oil transformers. The attack disrupted power infrastructure and grounded Moscow’s airports. Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces commander Magyar added: “Get used to it, there’s more to come.”

Maternal mortality came down over history because of specific, measurable interventions.
Human childbirth is difficult and hazardous for both mother and child. Early adaptations to this hazard were to have more children, which worked at a human population level, but didn't change individual risk.

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

The HUR reported that the released individuals in Belarus held pro-Ukrainian views. Spokesperson Andriy Yusov said the operation was carefully prepared and carried out once the opportunity arose.
Ukraine has returned 31 civilians from Belarus, including men and women sentenced to 2–11 years in prison. The youngest is 18, the oldest 58, and some are seriously ill. The Coordination Headquarters thanked the U.S. and Donald Trump for helping secure their release.
