It’s gonna be a pretty solid weekend if social media is flooded with clips of Laura Loomer getting her ass handed to her in-person by Indian journalists. Shout-out to Rajdeep Sardesai for kicking off the festivities.

Brendan Carr is threatening the media to cover the war the way the Trump regime wants. It’s one of the most anti-American messages ever posted by a government official.

β€˜I wish I could push ChatGPT off a cliff’: professors scramble to save critical thinking in an age of AI As AI has upended the way students learn, academics worry about the future of the humanities - and society at large

I'm one of many professors quoted in this report from Alice Speri. I really appreciate The Guardian taking an angle which has basically eluded every other major outlet.

Not even the Nazis expressly announced they were committing war crimes. Indeed, at Nuremberg war crimes were denied.

But here, openly, the US Secretary for Defense is explicitly admitting to committing war crimes.

Trump continues to threaten to cut off trade with Spain to β€œpunish” them.

But the U.S. runs a $4.8 billion trade SURPLUS with Spain. We are winning that deal. And Spain is in the EU, so you can’t just target Spain alone.

This isn’t America First, it’s America Confused.
