David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

Jack Posobiec explicitly says that "Antifa" dates back to the Weimar Republic, explicitly acknowledging that this administration is opposed to those who resisted the arrival of Adolf Hitler in Power.

🔥 As you may have seen, in recent days, I've been going to the Broadview ICE facility near where I live. For @vanityfair.com I wrote about those protests & the hell that the Chicago area is being put through thanks to ICE/DHS. I hope you'll read this & share it. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/c...
Postcard From Chicago: There’s an ICE Facility in My Backyard
Chicago was not a war zone when Trump’s Operation Midway Blitz began. DHS and ICE have made it one.

now that the news is official: some thoughts on Bari Weiss taking over at CBS News, and what it means that the Free Press—a publication that never apologizes or corrects itself when its "reporting" is ripped to shreds—is touted as a needed dose of "trust and integrity" slate.com/technology/2...
CBS Is About to Hand Over Its Newsroom to an Anti-Woke Crusader. You Should Be Worried.
She’s made a career railing against “wokeness.” Now she’s in charge of a venerated newsroom.

The whole empty, centrist Dem scam is collapsing in real time.

This is a leg sweep, followed by a quick boxing of Schatz’s ears. These hacks need to go away. They are killing us in so many ways.
An exchange from Twitter where Brian Schatz is bemoaning ICE and Adam Johnson points out Schatz voted to double their budget just last year.

CBS News will now be a megaphone for the country's most vicious crusader against free speech, and the most relentless propagandist of far-right disinformation.

Cancel Paramount Plus, call every CBS advertiser until their only remaining ads are for MyPillow and Daily Stormer.

UPDATE: Barbara Marques, legally married to a U.S. citizen, is scheduled to be deported TOMORROW, even though a court has ruled that her case be reopened. Call Louisiana Reps, esp if you LIVE in Louisiana, to demand that she be afforded due process and kept here while her case is reviewed.
