Trump says data center opposition is a Chinese psy-op. Chinese state media says US AI safety calls are a psy-op. Oxford China Policy Lab's Elisabeth Siegel says both accusations point to the same problem: no one can independently verify what AI companies claim.

US, China Psy-Op Accusations Signal Deep Distrust on AI Regulation
Without more checks and balances on AI companies, allegations of “psy-ops” in both the US and China will continue to cloud the waters, writes Elisabeth Siegel.

For likely the first time in modern history, the Supreme Court decided more cases in fast-tracked, secretive proceedings than in open court. These “shadow docket” decisions have let the Trump admin. bypass lower courts on deportations, ICE stops and more — often with little to no explanation.

ProPublica reviewed the court records for more than 70,000 habeas petition cases and found that judges in some parts of the country take far longer than others to decide whether people with no criminal record should be detained by ICE. See our full list: propub.li/46ejybx
Excerpt of a searchable table titled "How long do habeas cases take in different judges' courtrooms?" The description reads: "Among judges who have been assigned at least 50 habeas cases during the second Trump administration, the median time for a case to be closed varies widely." The table is organized into columns, from left to right: judge (appointed by); district; total cases; and median days to close. For example: The top judge, Charles Goodwin, is a Trump appointee in the Western District of Oklahoma, with 169 total cases and 144 median days to close a case. Most of the top 9 judges shown were appointed by Republican presidents and are in red state districts. They all take a median 92 days or longer to close habeas cases.
