accept civilian kill ratios of something like 10 civilians for 1 foot soldier up to 100 for a leader. Very little human oversight.

Israel is already using Killer Robots thru its reliance on Lavender & Where's Daddy AI systems to locate & kill Hamas fighters. They use various characteristics to ID presumed terrorists then blow them away in their homes. Claim is 90% accurate, which means at least 10% are not terorists. Also

Senator John Corn Pone Kennedy must have taken his interrogation techniques from the public defender in "My Cousin Vinny," with his final telling question being, "What color are the eyes of Chairman Grassley & Dick Durbin?" Smith's answer: Brown & Hazel Green.

Chuck Grassley makes a horrible MAGA Grand Inquisitor against Jack Smith. You can tell that he knows he's being horribly unfair to a good man at the behest of the Mad King and that his heart is not really in it.

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

going full-blown MAGA loonie, cobbling together a tall tale about how Smith & his fellow prosecutors actually violated all the rights of the poor Republicans. This will almost surely blow up in their faces, as the Democratic senators will give Smith every chance to condemn Trump with the facts.

I was taken aback that the Republican senate was going to question Jack Smith as that was giving him a forum to talk about Trump's brazen & obvious guilt in keeping classified documents in places like the Mar a Lago men's room. I learned why they are calling him this morning with Chuck Grassley

For this to work, the subsidy paid to the stay-at-home parent would have to equal what he or she would have earned on a job, minus the cost of child care. I find it hard to believe they would pay anything close to that. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/05/u...

Here is the defense motion that this astonishing NYT article is about. And lots that the NYT left out, like: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... Still looking for the exhibits.
With no evidence, the government alleged to the grand jury that the conspiracy in this case extends far beyond the defendants to include the AFL-CIO, the Minneapolis Federation of Educators, the Minnesota Association of Professional Employees, Monarca, Veterans for Peace, and the Grease Pit bicycle repair shop, among others.  These wild conspiracy allegations are born from the fantasies of political retribution that animate the Trump Administration.
