It's hard to overstate the extend to which rich tech bros have bought our government. We have to fight back against illegal orders like this.
The executive order is the latest in a series of attempts by the Trump administration to hold back state-level AI rules. But many Republicans are also uncomfortable with the effort. n.pr/4iPffZC

Anybody know of any good books or articles about Amy Newell and her work with the UE Electronics Organizing Committee? I feel like there could be some good lessons to learn about that for our current moment.

every single thing hegseth says in public reveals a bottomless pit of insecurity
When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.
