Nevada Republican politician Michele Fiore, nicknamed “Lady Trump,” collected money for a memorial to 2 fallen police officers but spent it on plastic surgery, rent and her daughter’s wedding. A jury convicted her of fraud. Trump pardoned her because he’s pro-criminal. Vote against all Republicans.

For a long time I've wanted a sense of how trump has or hasn't interacted with chatbots (we know he posts a lot of slop sure). And this TIME anecdote about Grok arguably leading Trump into war is just extremely bracing
Since returning to office, Trump has marveled at AI’s capabilities. He is increasingly in thrall to the tech executives courting him. In December 2025, Elon Musk returned to the Oval Office for a clandestine meeting. Trump spent hours asking Grok, Musk’s AI chatbot, questions about his presidency and legacy, according to an official present. At the time, Trump was ordering missile strikes against Venezuelan boats he alleged were smuggling drugs into the U.S. He asked Grok how Venezuelans would react if the U.S. captured Maduro. According to the official present, the chatbot responded that Maduro was a repressive and deeply unpopular dictator and that many Venezuelans would likely celebrate his downfall. After Trump ordered the mission to seize Maduro, the following month, celebrations broke out in the streets. Trump, according to officials, came away thinking Grok was ingenious.

After decades of letting social media, chyron typists, headline editors, and media personalities digest information for them and provide unfactchecked analyses, it’s not surprising that so many people are eager to cede their own reasoning to a chatbot.

This was not just a GOP strategy. Every time I heard him mentioned it was by a journalist either asking about him or talking about him. And not just from RW outlets. I’m glad it’s not working, but I wish the media wouldn’t carry all that GOP water.

The Pentagon is notifying millions of current and former U.S. military servicemembers and staff that hackers stole their *unencrypted* personal information during a months-long data breach. The agency that had the breach also handles ID and login/credential access to U.S. military systems and bases.

Trump's AG Todd Blanche just filed a misconduct complaint against two Minnesota federal judges for telling the NYT that the 3,000-agent immigration surge there threatens democracy. Their crime? Documenting 96 violated court orders. Punishing judges for truth is how democracy dies.

If we’re being strict about naming conventions, Talia al Ghul should be called Ra’s al Ghul’s Talia. After all, “al Ghul” isn’t actually the surname of a guy named Ra’s. I mean, if you’re going to use a possessive comma in a name, for heaven’s sake GO FOR IT.
