“We must understand that the unchecked expansion of ICE has given rise to further abuses of power, including the use of military personnel as a way to police American cities led by Black Democrats.”

Gov. Moore: Trump's executive actions are either ineffective, performative, or illegal. And many of the actions when it comes to the employment of our federal workers are illegal. And it's the people who are doing these jobs that are now being used as pawns in this really devious political game

Why do the ads for seasonal releases at Jeni’s Ice Cream all look like posters for an upcoming A24 film?
A poster advertising Jeni’s Ice Cream’s fall releases that looks a lot like an ad for an arthouse movie poster, featuring an off-center photo of a scarecrow against a desaturated cloudy sky background. The scarecrow is clutching a pair of ice cream cones and the word “FALL” in Futura font is partially superimposed over its face.

Just so you know, the President of the United States is *personally* involved in convincing state lawmakers to pass gerrymandered congressional maps that erase Democratic seats.

Sounds like Trump admin will have AI companies sign off on Ideological Neutrality & Truth-Seeking in their models but not attempt to do the work of auditing datasets and prompt testing, which, as NYT lawyers know from their lawsuit in discovery, is incredibly complicated, arduous and time consuming
