The fascist turn of Silicon Valley is nothing else than a return to its roots; its founding figures promoted eugenics, extreme racism, misogynism and adherence to the fascist ideology. I document this extensively in my book AI and Learning Futures - here's a link: www.routledge.com/Artificial-I...

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

every single one of these emails is someone I already hate messaging a notorious pedophile to say "Thanks for the great time! I had fun doing pedophile stuff with you. P.S. Trump was there with us the whole time"

‘Free food for starving American soldiers’ was not in my bingo card for 2025…
NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.

The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:
US Army Tells Soldiers to Go to German Food Bank, Then Deletes It
The initial 'Shutdown Guidance' for the US Army Garrison Bavaria included instructions to go to German food banks.

After US sanctions, Lukoil quickly announced a full sale to Gunvor Group, founded by a Putin ally.

They say they won't sell the assets back to Lukoil. Oh, and they need a 6 month extension on sanctions.🙄

If you believe it won't go back to Russia, I've got a bridge to sell you.
