I believe he's the first acting Archivist of the United States to be deputized to run a foreign country as a side hustle.
WELKER: Mr. Secretary, are you running Venezuela right now?
MARCO RUBIO: Yeah. People are fixating on that. Here's the bottom line -- we expect to see changes in Venezuela

If you had asked me to quickly name the place I thought was the number one spot for catching measles,
Measles may have been spread at a Noah’s Ark-themed creationist museum in Kentucky earlier this week, the state’s health authority said.

I’m trying to think what would have happened if, during the Mississippi welfare fraud scandal between 2020 and 2023, the Biden administration had halted *all* federal welfare funding to Mississippi.
The right would have lost it; Fox & GOP would have called for an armed revolt.

The move comes as the Trump administration has accused the state’s leaders of complicity in a wide-ranging fraud scandal.

Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

I think this is a really important point. When folks say "no AI" they often don’t mean "I can conceive of no possible use for AI"—they mean "the use cases I’ve been shown do not begin to justify the harms"—that’s not something you respond to by offering another narrow use case
So when I say there is *zero* utility for LLMs, I don't mean there are zero use cases. I mean there are zero use cases that even begin to make up for the damage that's being done.
