I want to see Lindell’s evidence to support his recent claim: it was literally Satan himself who rigged the election.

It’s a complicated talking point, but handy. The administration could use it against all kinds of objections.

Is this new policy?
In 2010 aboard a Greyhound across Texas, I witnessed government agents stop my bus, board it, demand to see one passenger's ID --and Asian woman who spoke very limited English-- and take her off the bus when she offered no more than a Xerox of her passport.

A screenshot of a ChatGPT conversation reading: "can you write something about robert e. lee in the voice of washington post staff writer gillian brockell?"
"Certainly! Here's an excerpt written in the voice of Gillian Brockell, a staff writer at The Washington Post, reflecting on Robert E. Lee's legacy: 

The Complicated Legacy of Robert E. Lee: A Figure Divided by History
By Gillian Brockell 
When Robert E. Lee's name is invoked, it is often as a symbol of Southern pride military brilliance, or a tragic, doomed cause. But history has a way of shifting its lens, and in recent years, the image of Lee -- the Confederate general, the hero of lost causes -- has become increasingly more fraught. The man who stood as the face of a rebellion that tore the nation apart now stands at the center of an ongoing reckoning over the Confederacy's legacy, and our struggle to reconcile memory with reality."

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles.

Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.
