Just once I would love for one of these Silicon Valley fart hot boxing mfers who says AI is going to kill us all to explain the mechanism by which it will do so. And please don’t say nukes – you guys do not begin to understand how analog that shit is.

I am suing the Attorney General of the United States. In my opinion, the judge in my case has been strategically laying the foundation for contempt.

Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social

A federal judge says Todd Blanche isn't sufficiently following the court's orders in a case concerning the Epstein files and gave Blanche a deadline to comply or face the possibility of contempt charges. The order stems from the lawsuit brought by Katie Phang.

This is a good deep-dive into AI slop invading what used to be legit media sites. One thing I’m seeing more and more: slop outlets churning archaeology stories from 1-5 years ago and presenting them as news. 🏺🧪

📌At this moment WE can't get an answer from OUR Pentagon on whether THEY will deploy troops against US on election day. Read that again. I'm sorry but just who in the fuck do they think they are? And to you so-called military leaders out there? WAKE UP, and start honoring your oath to protect us.

Rep. Joyce Beatty describes Kennedy Center Board meeting when they discussed her Beatty v. Trump lawsuit successfully forcing Trump's name off the building "He went into a tantrum. I reminded him he had more bankruptcies than anybody in the room. I was not going to let him bully me, intimidate me."

Earlier this week, I met the head of a nonprofit whose funding to help families stay housed has been sharply cut under this administration. Meanwhile, the U.S. is preparing a $2.8 billion arms package for Israel—including *forty thousand* 2,000-pound bombs—financed by American taxpayers.

"If things go right this fall, a majority of Americans will live in Democratic “trifecta” states, and only a quarter in Republican trifecta states. Such a shift would greatly improve the lives of millions of Americans, as well as strengthen our democracy." newrepublic.com/article/2154...

Europe is a state of mind. Cyprus isn't even in Europe. "Until now, the prevailing view among senior EU officials has been that Canada could not be offered membership because it is outside the continent of Europe, a territorial requirement stipulated in European treaties."
