There’s the false accusation from a former state AG who should know better accusing someone of committing a crime based on zero evidence. Then there’s the behavior before, during and after. All of it really shows America what we already knew - Schmitt is scum.

You would think at some point MAGA would get tired of the incompetent buffoons they have representing them. But it seems like they’ve pretty much just accepted it as part of their brand.

Senator Eric Schmitt is a fucking clown. He didn’t just ask Jack Smith if he was in Atlanta; he did a whole ass posterboard presentation trying to play gotcha, and it backfired because he doesn’t know how to fact-check. Missouri, do better!

Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

I think people REALLY can't appreciate how badly the far right wants to prove that Fani Willis and Jack Smith coordinated. So they were not going to let the truth get in the way of their most sincerely held belief.

In case you missed it, Special Counsel Jack Smith obliterated fascist republicans in the Senate today and all he did was testify truthfully about well-known well-documented facts whilst they tried to accuse him of committing perjury because they had nothing. MAGA are as dumb as they are corrupt.

It’s difficult to overstate how dangerous such a declaration would be for American democracy. It would mean a president is attempting to sidestep the Constitution, which empowers states to run elections, in order to prevent his party from losing. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Could Trump take over voting by declaring a ‘national emergency’?
Advocates agree such an attempt would be blatantly unconstitutional but still worry that such an emergency order could suppress voting nonetheless.

Yes. They bizarrely think it is a sign of conspiracy if prosecutors share notes. That Smith DID NOT is pretty remarkable (tho Willis was already on her way to overplaying her hand in 2022). Plus, their notion of conspiracy is just, "people we don't like know each other."

Q: If Johnson called the House back, they would have to immediately vote on Whiskey Pete Hegseth impeachment and not long after vote on Epstein, right? www.axios.com/newsletters/...
Tomorrow's Trump-Johnson AI summit with top tech CEOs suddenly looks a lot more consequential than it did just 72 hours ago.

🤖 Why it matters: Speaker Mike Johnson's preferred solution on AI — to let the companies take the lead on hashing out their own guardrails — is colliding with evidence that they're struggling to control their own creations.

🔥 In the last three days alone:

Axios scooped that AI companies are probing tens of thousands of incidents from frontier AI, including "bypassing guardrails, creating message boards, escaping sandboxes, website hijacking, self-prompting or seeking to bypass monitors."
The state of Florida asked a court for a temporary injunction against OpenAI and ChatGPT, saying the company can't self-regulate.
AI pioneers warned that AI could self-improve so quickly that the "intelligence explosion" would leave governments and institutions without much time to respond.
⛔️ Zoom in: Johnson has rebuffed calls to bring the House back into session, arguing lawmakers don't have anything ready to pass, while warning against the dangers of overregulation.
