AI’s war on journalism will decide the fate of the free press
The EU’s approach to how artificial intelligence uses journalistic work could determine whether the free press survives the digital age – or vanishes into the data stream

Jimmy Kimmel has been asking viewers to send in videos with #showmeyourhellhole in Democratic cities President Trump has targeted, including Portland and Washington, D.C. On Thursday night, he turned to a “very special report” filed by Gov. JB Pritzker.
Reporting in 'war-torn' Chicago, Pritzker mocks Trump's 'hellhole' narrative on 'Jimmy Kimmel'
The governor filmed a video near the Monroe Street Bridge Thursday afternoon as proceedings were underway at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse in the lawsuit filed by Illinois and Chicago against the Trump administration's plans to deploy the National Guard in the city.

It looked like Walters was going to beat the porn rap, no pun intended. The racy visuals were determined to be from a Bruce Lee movie rather than a porno. So I'm dying to know what looming scandal is actually driving him out of office.
Breaking: Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters has resigned after porn allegations.

Walters is the guy who directed public schools to incorporate the Christian Bible and Ten Commandments into instruction, which triggered lawsuits over church–state separation.

More twisted "science" from RFK Jr forthcoming...

Let's focus on the evidence. For example...👇

"Acetaminophen use during pregnancy was NOT associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability in sibling control analyses."

Acetaminophen Use During Pregnancy and Children’s Risk of Autism, ADHD, and Intellectual Disability
This nationwide cohort study with sibling control analysis examines the association of acetaminophen use during pregnancy with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability.

Resign RFK jr
Just spoke with my CDC sources.

They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports.

Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy.

RFK Jr. must resign now!

It’ll never not be insane to me that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr told Senators to their faces that he wants to make America healthy again when he’s a known heroin addict steroid abuser and clearly shows signs that he’s sick AF.

I encourage people to read the systemic review RFK jr is expected to cite to claim “Tylenol causes autism” as is a wonderful example of the danger of people who don’t understand the limitations of systematic reviews, and why a single review should not override the totality of scientific evidence.

This is BRILLIANT!! 👏 🤩 For $3.00 you can have someone show up to your reps office in a duck costume to have support having RFK Jr impeached!! 😁 🤣 🐥 🐤
We will begin Quack-O-Gram delivery 9/15-9/16 and ducks will continue until morale approves.

We are almost at 2k, our goal is 10k.

(We will be recycling many AND we are working with several groups for reuse of the duckies!)

1) ABC/NBC should lose license or pay hefty fees because their reporting is mean to him.
2) MD should maybe lose bridge repair funds because Wes Moore was mean to him.
3) The feds should investigate Chris Christie for Bridgegate because he was mean to him.

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

The independence of the Bureau of Labor Statistics is vital. If politicized, it can't be trusted as a source of information. Who did Trump just put in charge of the agency? E.J. Antoni — chief economist at the Heritage Foundation and contributor to Project 2025.

Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty.

It’s one thing when it’s a war… or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days.

But to rip these people from their lives for a show… is awful.
