Exclusive | White House Puts RFK Jr.’s HHS on Tighter Leash After MAHA Setbacks Aides close to the president grew worried that perceived disorganization and an antivaccine focus could prove damaging in the midterms.

I love these journalistic fictions that normalize the administration and act like there are reasonable people there working to intelligently rein in dangerous impulses

Also proof that no matter how much you try to suck up to Trump, it'll never be enough. Sorry, MAGA Haberman.

thank you for explaining my incredibly low-effort joke

What's more dogmatic? Saying that AI should not be used because of its flaws, lack of regulation and inherent theft? Or saying that it must be used by everyone despite those things? AI has been forced upon me in daily life to a more annoying degree than I could have imagined, yet it lacks efficacy.

Every time I see an article by a psych about AI psychosis for the most part it's just them going "um actually strictly speaking it's not psychosis in the DSM sense", ignoring that we see people lose touch with consensus reality without literally being psychotic.

Exhibit A:

"I just want people to agree with my framing so I can claim intellectual victory over them!"

what a whiny BABY 😂

LMAO you're a professor at Notre Dame????? That makes this ten times funnier. Youre not just wasting your time, you're wasting so many people's time on this engagement farming, attention seeking BS.

Good to see that America has its priorities right.

Melanie Stansbury: “Epstein’s own accountant, Richard Kahn, gave contradictory testimony this week about whether or not an accuser of both Epstein & Trump (Jane Doe 4) received a settlement from the Epstein Estate for abuse — He now says he cannot confirm or deny”

JUDGE BOASBERG: “.. the Government has produced essentially zero evidence to suspect Chair Powell of a crime; indeed, its justifications are so thin and unsubstantiated that the Court can only conclude that they are pretextual."

One of the most notorious hatemongers on the far right appears to have finally stepped in it after being caught texting flirtatiously with what he assumed to be a 15-year-old girl.

Well this was terrifying and insane. She's gotta be on something. Saying "I'll bring cases to the bench regardless of merit or evidence" in the wackiest, looney-tunes way possible. Cheeseball administration.

NFL stays silent on use of copyrighted content in White House Iran war video Anyone who has watched pro football games on TV has heard the disclaimer — "any rebroadcast or other use of this telecast without the express written consent of the NFL is prohibited."

Usually, the NFL zealously protects its copyrighted content. As to the use of game highlights in a White House Iran war video with big hits cutting to missile strikes, the NFL is conspicuously silent.

Since you deleted your comment agreeing with him: How should the disabled or the elderly "get back on their feet" according to you? The chronically ill? Those living in poverty during inflation and a housing crisis? You clearly don't know what you're talking about, just like the guy in your post.

Only when it gives them an excuse to fuck someone over.

this is beyond parody, folks. a complete mockery of the DOJ.

This is, to put it mildly, a double standard. This guy was part of a government that encouraged online social media figures to engage in routine harassment of government employees to the point that many were fired or went into hiding. Some of it was done by Elon Musk, this guy's boss.

Oh and ofc the Lakers, who haven't been able to attract premier talent almost ever because of the liberal hellscape that is LA County

This sentiment is brought up all the time, but it never turns out to be true. "All the millionaires will leave NYC if Zohran becomes mayor" and yet when he became mayor, none of them left that haven't returned from their vacation homes to be taxed by Zohran.

Mm, yes, just like how the wealth taxes in Cali are so high that no superstar will touch the Dodgers, Kings, 49ers, Sparks, Rams, Angels, Chargers, Ducks... all those teams are doing terribly and no one will play for them. Because of the taxes.

There's a good number of people who believe if you're poor, you live the easy life and just coast on government funds. My wife's grandmother believes "the entire black population" lives on welfare "provided to them by hard working white folks." This woman hasn't worked a day in her life mind you.

😕

Consumer Prices Rose in January, Before Iran War Added Price Pressures

Prices are up, economic growth is down. And this was all before this disastrous war in Iran. Trump is the single most incompetent president we’ve ever had. What a loser.

• If there's one thing controversial CBS News editor Bari Weiss has earned praise for it's her hands-on booking of big names for the network. But there's one booking she seems to have blown up: New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, who had been in talks to appear for an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning with Robert Costa. Mamdani's team, I'm told, has long been averse to appearing on CBS given the coverage his campaign got from Weiss's The Free Press, but her recent social media post reacting with a fire emoji to an Iranian activist's diatribe against Mamdani was the "nail in the coffin" for him appearing on the network, two sources with knowledge told me. "Bari and her people have a clear axe to grind for him," said one former CBS producer. (CBS News did not respond to a request for comment.) And the network's turn away from news and toward opinion is proving to be a broader problem. "It's not just Zohran," the source said. "It's really

lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down

The establishment is in full panic mode.

When they can’t debate ideas, they have to manufacture doubt.
