Yes, it’s illegal. Like changing it to Department of War, like ten thousand other things. Part of the Trump strategy is to break the law and convey “the rule of law is weak and feminine and laughable and should be overridden by Our Guy.” Trump is fundamentally anti-law.

They think writers can be replaced because they don't understand what writing is effective, yes, but don't discount the desire to cut human labor out of the process entirely, not just for "cost savings" but because the management class and especially the investor class just fucking hate humans.
Is that why people think that ChatGPT and other AI(?) could replace authors - the people in management can't recognize good writing and so assume that no one else can, either? It seems like that would quickly be dismissed witjh any sort of beta readership, but.

This will only work on people without a moral compass...like Trump's followers. People who have a moral compass understand that being buddy-buddy with a child sex trafficker is a "Go to jail, and then to Hell." Party affiliation means NOTHING. Fuck EVERYONE in the circle!
In an obvious move to try to manipulate the narrative around the contents of the Epstein files, one of the few prominent figures whose face has NOT been redacted is Bill Clinton—and the Trump administration is signal boosting those images.

Trump’s promise Wednesday to pay troops a “warrior dividend” bonus is actually a military housing stipend already approved by Congress, and not a generous new White House program.
