AI isn't reliable enough to get even a hamburger order right, but reckless Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is pushing to expand artificial intelligence across the U.S. military, including AI-enabled targeting. "Would you like fries with that obliterated girls' school?"

I made a web app for teachers who take randomized group-making seriously. It's meant to be used and displayed in front of your class. I'd love feedback from instructors who have strong opinions about how great groups make education better. Free to use: groupmagic.lovable.app #EduSky

Illinoisans have lost access to food assistance because the President wanted to make himself and his friends at Mar-a-Lago even richer. He made families choose between putting food on the table and paying their bills by driving up costs and cutting SNAP.

More than 5 million Americans have lost food-stamp benefits since 2025. "I have to prove that I'm sick," one SNAP recipient said.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.

In the past, the rich used to pay higher taxes. Now, the government pays the rich interest on a swelling debt, caused largely by lower taxes on the rich. It's a big switcheroo that we need to talk about if we're going to talk about the national debt.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.
