They resign nicely until all positions are well filled with Nazis. This is one of the main points of forcing such ludicrous cases...
The good news is that SIX seasoned federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned rather than engage in a bogus 'investigation' of Renee Good and her wife rather than investigating Good's killer.
The bad news is that there are now six fewer honest, dedicated federal prosecutors with DOJ.

The ability to generate sexually explicit, non-consensual images using AI isn't just a matter of online safety - it strikes at the core of the right to dignity, privacy & equality. These technologies are fuelling misogyny & harassment when young people are already overwhelmed by women-hating content

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Equally applies to Europe
Our major media orgs--even during the best of times when they're merely profit-driven outlets and not ideological mouthpieces and playthings of right-wing oligarchs--primarily serve the role of status quo managers. They rationalize & normalize elite actions & interests. They rarely defend democracy.
absolutely bizarre to see a violent, rogue american regime, which is threatening military attacks on a bunch of major trading partners and close allies, and openly fantasizing about hitler-style wars of territorial conquest, covered in the tone of horse-race political commentary

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.
It’s about oil and regime change.
And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

So mexico is next?
Trump on Sheinbaum: "The cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. We could be politically correct & nice and say, 'Oh, yes, she is.' No no. And I've asked her number times, 'Would you like us to take out the cartels?' ... something is gonna have to be done with Mexico."

Maduro enjoys absolute immunity as head of state. There is no justification whatsoever to kill or capture him. He didn’t start a war, he isn’t a combatant. Remember how some whined about Ukraine’s alleged strikes on Putin (which never happened)? They would actually have been legally justified.
This is as illegal as it gets. Unlike all
of his predecessors (think of Bush and the Iraq war), Trump doesn’t even pretend he cares about international law.

The U.S. carried out a “large scale strike” against Venezuela early this morning, capturing leader Nicolás Maduro and flying him out of the country, U.S. President Donald Trump said.

It's really astonishing how major outlets completely misrepresent this and use the AI chatbot as a trusted source for what was going on
This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc)
