🎯Ukrainian drones hit Sochi — Russia’s top resort & home to one of #Putin’s favorite residences. Military targets struck, oil refinery shook, airport paralyzed.
Tourists got a taste of the war Russians exported.
This summer, #Moscow, St. Petersburg & now #Sochi — all disrupted.

It’s extraordinary that so much media still reports on Trump with the old, redundant tools of the trade. He lied about Ukraine, then he tried to extort Ukraine, and having failed he threatens to walk away from Ukraine. The idea that he was ever going to do anything unwelcome to Putin is ridiculous.

Wow. Just wow. How Trump set the tariff rates. This is blithering, staggering, mind-boggling, jaw-cracking, gums-bleeding stupidity.
Screenshot of three tweets from @JamesSurowiecki dated 2 April 2025. (1) "It's also important to understand that the tariff rates that foreign countries are supposedly charging us are just made-up numbers. South Korea, with which we have a trade agreement, is not charging a 50% tariff on U.S. exports. Nor is the EU charging a 39% tariff." (2) "Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us. So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is." (3) "Even given that it's Trump, I cannot believe they said "We'll just divide the trade deficit by imports and tell people that's the tariff rate." And then they decided to set our tariffs by just cutting that totally made-up rate in half! This is so dumb and deceptive."

@edzitron.com how come you keep insisting that AI is a bubble, when it clearly brings humanity to a new level (of stupid): arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/a...
AI search engines cite incorrect news sources at an alarming 60% rate, study says
CJR study shows AI search services misinform users and ignore publisher exclusion requests.

It’s incredibly frustrating that there are no discernible consequences for this major federal contractor who consistently acts against the interests of the united states, on disaster relief and a whole host of other issues. www.politico.com/news/2024/10...
Elon Musk is piling onto all the hurricane disinformation, hampering relief efforts
The billionaire is using the power of his social media platform to spread falsehoods that officials say are hampering recovery efforts.

If someone makes “tampon Tim: stopping the red wave” t-shirts, that’s probably another million dollars in fundraising for the campaign
