A psychology journal has retracted a paper on how using generative AI can affect confidence in work tasks after its sole author refused to share data with the editors.

Given what hospice care is, the initial stat doesn't seem so damning.

Sen. Ron Johnson claims preposterously that as many as 3.9 MILLION (!!!) Americans died as a result of the covid vaccine Complete insanity

New in PN: Why fixing America is much harder than fixing Hungary "I warned in 2020 that it would be dangerous to let Trump go out like Nixon, and the Biden administration’s subsequent decision to pursue healing instead of accountability turned out to be disastrous." — @brynntannehill.bsky.social

There it is. Any questions?

Our current economy is rigged. It just is. A new report shows that 88 of the largest companies in America, including: Amazon Citigroup Haliburton Kohl's Palantir PayPal PG&E Southwest Airlines Tesla United Airlines Disney paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

Lieu: "I want the White House to send Kevin Hassett to every single TV channel and to every single swing House district where he can tell the voters of America that hurting consumers is 'the last of our concerns.'"

Kash Patel today: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want." Kash Patel in 2021: "This is what Fight with Kash is for. We will help Kyle Rittenhouse."

The rightwing response to the murder of Alex Pretti is predictable: to outshout and talk over anyone taking another position. The shrillness on Twitter is especially grating, but again, not surprising. It's Orwell's doublespeak. If the man had a cell phone instead of a gun, yell louder.

Target in Minneapolis has pulled Hispanic employees off of pick-up order duty after ICE arrested two US citizen Hispanic employees while on the job. “I’m literally a U.S. citizen!” one shouted as they escorted him into a van.

So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not? Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

Trump is now saying he wants to drastically increase the military budget to a whopping $1.5 trillion

Best idea I’ve heard this week. We’re paying a heavy price for media illiteracy and disinformation; it’s never too young to start teaching people how to recognise and defend themselves against it. apnews.com/article/fake...

I beg to differ.

"‘It’s surreal’: US sanctions lock Intl Criminal Court judge out of daily life. Canadian judge Kimberly Prost is unable to use credit cards or access everyday services (Uber, Alexa, Ticketmaster...) in what she calls an attack on the independence of the judiciary." www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

There are chilling words and a telling comparison as we head towards elections in 2026 and 2028.

RIP Eric L Peterson Jr. 4/9/40 to 1/1/26 He lived a full life.

1/ Tina Peters is in prison for criminally breaching election security, not for exposing fraud. No court, audit, or investigation found widespread voter fraud in Colorado. Mail-in voting in Colorado has existed for years, is used by voters across parties, and has been upheld by courts.

Lauren Boebert just reacted to Trump blocking clean water for her district after she voted to release the Epstein Files: “I hope this veto has nothing to do with retaliation for calling out corruption… I thought Trump’s campaign was about lowering costs and cutting red tape.”

The facts!

I just want the same healthcare my congressman receives…

Donald Trump promised a new ‘golden age’ for the US economy. Where is it?

Israeli troops kill five Palestinians sheltering in Gaza school, say hospital chiefs

You know the GOP has gone crazy when are forced to agree with Rand Paul over and over.

Republicans fought release of Epstein materials every step of the way, are now refusing to release the second strike boat video, and won’t let Jack Smith testify in public. They constantly hide everything they are doing from the American people.

An ICE officer’s husband was arrested for impersonating an ICE officer using his wife’s marked vehicle. That whole scenario is perplexing from her, not him, being the actual ICE agent. I wonder just how many times he’s done this and why he’s not an ‘agent’ himself. #Pinks #ProudBlue #ICE

Had to go watch the video myself before reposting, because this seemed so absurd I thought it might be fake. But, nope, it happened. He also says (in the same sentence) "with enough effort, you could probably stop aging, reverse it..."

It was also no coincidence that it was a Black woman reporter he railed against.
