The Trump family runs the government, and the government pays the Trump family. This is not a coincidence – it's deep corruption that never would have been tolerated before a convicted felon took over the White House. Vote against all Republicans.

Police violently drag Hispanic grandmother across rough ground-injuring both arms. Witnesses yell she has a serious heart condition & was just released from hospital. Cops kneel on her chest anyway. "They dragged her like a doll," brother said. Incident occurred in Batesville, Texas

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

Ultimately I think human authorship is impoetant, even if AI tools are part of the process. (Part of, not the start and finish)
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
