Please, please, please do not get your political opinions from chatbots

Voters’ minds are hard to change. AI chatbots are surprisingly good at it.
New research suggests AI chatbots can shift people’s political views more effectively than campaign ads on TV.

We can’t afford NOT to do drugs
I guess it’s worth mentioning that the price of cocaine hasn’t changed since the 1970s. One might thing 50 years of law enforcement operations to reduce supply and all those PSAs targeted at reducing demand might impact the economics. But no. Considering inflation, drugs have only gotten cheeper.

When a gov’t agency finds fraud among poor people, those poor people go to jail. That they can’t point to those cases is reason enough to disbelieve them.
Brooke Rollins has made a case for sweeping changes to food aid programs by claiming USDA has uncovered "massive fraud." But she and USDA haven't provided the underlying data or any evidence.

The goal of this sloganeering is to AVOID POLITICS. Democrats want to live in a fantasy world with no antagonisms and no villains, even while 10's of millions of their voters have taken to the streets this year to specifically name the villains they hate. Politics without conflict is not politics.

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion.
It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make.

When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

Indiana choosing not to redistrict is a direct win for the actual fighting a few democrats chose to do. Letting them know that they weren't going to be allowed to gerrymander in isolation was effective, and aspiring politicians should take note.
