From mental health risks to widespread sexual deepfakes, I think we can all agree that AI poses unique dangers to women & kids. Right now, state legislation is our best bet at protecting against those risks. Trump, Cruz, and Scalise are trying to wipe those away.

Again: Steering public dollars to private religious schools has always been the #1 goal of @GovBillLee and his fellow privatizers.

(His pal Betsy Devos, who has funded much of the war on public schools, called it “Advancing God’s Kingdom”)

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Trump did it with the nation’s official National Security Strategy report that was published late last night on the White House website.

There’s a lot to unpack here…

Bombing vessels in the Caribbean without congressional authorization is already an unconstitutional use of military force.

Hegseth’s double tap on survivors looks like a war crime, and both Armed Services Committees want him in the chair to answer for it.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

“Will you release all the files within 30 days?”

BONDI: “We’ll continue to follow the law.”🤔

“You said no addition investigation was warranted. What changed?”

BONDI: “Information.” 🙃

Borders Czar Tom Homan just announced he’s ramping up ICE operations in NYC.

Same playbook we’ve been seeing in LA, DC, Chicago & Charlotte. They aren’t hunting criminals, they’re targeting workers and people who are part of the community. Families. Neighbors. The people who keep the city running.

Piggy has signed off on the release of the Epstein files.

There is a loophole in the law that lets the DOJ withhold anything they deem is part of an active investigation.

It’s precisely what Piggy is counting on.
