Time for some election fact checking on Toronto's water budget. We heard a claim from candidate Brad Bradford today that implied that the City's capital reserve fund for water infrastructure like sewers, pipes, and water treatment is unnecessary. This is dangerous and short-sighted. 1/4 #topoli

extremely weird shit during the Jack Smith hearing -- Sen. Eric Schmitt's team briefly displays a poster board that Schmitt claims contains evidence Smith committed perjury, but then Schmitt's team takes it down before anybody can read it and refuses to show Smith what it says

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

So Trump told reporters in the White House today that “Canada are going to come in and say, ‘Sir, we are sorry’…” Trump is managed to do something I didn’t think was possible — guarantee that Canadians will never say “sorry.”

TIL about the Polybius urban legend. Portland friends, have you heard of this? The myth is that a mysterious game appeared in Portland arcades. It disoriented users or gave them seizures. Men in suits would periodically check the game cabinets. And then it disappeared. I love Portland lore.

Yes, yes we are pushing back.
Publishers Push Back: The NYT, Chicago Tribune, and other publishers are asking a federal judge to disregard the Trump Justice Department’s defense of OpenAI in a landmark copyright case, suggesting the administration may have been influenced by “political and financial interests.” The move came after the DOJ filed a brief earlier this month backing OpenAI’s use of copyrighted news articles to train A.I. models qualifies as “fair use,” arguing that restricting A.I. development could hurt U.S. competitiveness. The publishers countered that the government’s position is separate from the copyright questions before the court. “By all measures, this Statement of Interest appears to be an effort to further enrich the world’s largest companies—and the Administration’s largest donors—while undermining this country’s free press,” a spokesperson for The NYT said in a statement.
