MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

It can never be said enough, AI is not a truth machine.
Took a look at the entry they have for me in Elon's Grokipedia.

There are some surprisingly deep details, dredged up from interviews I'd long ago forgotten about, and then there are some incredibly big points that are completely wrong.

Let's roll the tape.

Elon doesn’t need a trillion dollars for motivation. Imagine the motivation of Tesla employees if they were incentivized by a piece of that trillion dollars.

The announcement by the President will be unsatisfying. That’s the trend and I’m sticking to the data.

During this first hearing, the real objectives of the commission became abundantly clear:

— Rewrite history to make America a “Christian nation”
— Stack courts with Christian nationalists
— Inject religion into all aspects of public life

How do these dipshits not understand that AI quite literally makes up sources? Scratch that — these dipshits don’t know what citations are real and fake because they have no expertise in the field. Their job is solely to break shit.

100% correct.
A reminder.

Presidents often get too much credit - and blame - for what happens in the economy.

This one really is all Trump

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

Yesterday, while listening to a podcast, I heard what I think is the best slogan for America under MAGA control, “America alone”. The rest of the free world could build closer ties to each other to replace those American dependencies.

I am sad for all the great employees of Tesla and SpaceX that want to create fantastic technology but are represented by Elon. I like the tech, can’t stand the leader. No Tesla for me.

In 1995-96, I clerked for a trial judge in the District of Maryland and got to know the writing & reputation of Judge Michael Luttig.

Judge Luttig was THE intellectual superstar of the Federalist Society.

It's HUGE deal that he is calling on all Republicans to vote for Kamala Harris.
