Disabled people are forced to live in legislated poverty. Qualifying for benefits is a dehumanizing and lengthy process designed to make you quit. You can’t have assets. You can’t marry without losing benefits. Next they plan to cut SSI payments to disabled adults whose families receive SNAP

Trump doesn’t force people to do bad things. All he did was show people they could get away with being horrible if they really wanted to, and a lot of powerful people decided they didn’t need to pretend anymore. Especially those in influential positions who could push back but did not.

Treating AI as a "coworker" will make you do a worse job.

AI agents are not your “coworkers”
Marketing AI agents as digital employees may make human workers worse at spotting errors and more likely to offload accountability.

Trump just raged at our NATO allies for refusing to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz and bail him out of the fiasco he created. He threatened to withdraw from NATO with childish insults. This is best seen as an admission of serious political weakness. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2080...

It’s interesting watching the news media fumble the “release” of the Trump-Epstein Files. Basically they report that: -DOJ released the files (untrue, misleading at best) -They’re “heavily redacted” (small mention) -Details of what IS visible, ie “Clinton” (a distraction from the real story)

It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines. It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States. And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).
Screenshot from project 2025 that says By statute or regulation, CDC guidance must be prohibited from taking on a prescriptive character. For example, never again should CDC officials be allowed to say in their official capacity that school children "should be" masked or vaccinated (through a schedule or otherwise) or prohibited from learning in a school building.
Such decisions should be left to parents and medical providers. We have learned that when CDC says what people "should" do, it readily becomes a "must" backed by severe punishments, including criminal penalties. CDC should report on the risks and effectiveness of all infectious disease-mitigation measures dispassionately and leave the "should" and "must" policy calls to politically accountable parties.
Conflicts of Interest. There was a time when the CDC could not take money
