Campos: While I want to thank CBS news for funding this generous gift towards my education, I want to acknowledge how the recent direction of the outlet stains the legacy of Mike Wallace, the namesake of this scholarship.

There has been an alarming development in our legal system. Judges are starting to contract with a private corporation started by an ex-Palantir employee--whose bio says he is also a former speechwriter for Israel's UN ambassador--to have **secretive proprietary AI help decide cases for them.**
Judges in one of the nation’s largest court systems have started using artificial intelligence, testing a tool that can rapidly distill hundreds of pages of legal motions and use samples of a jurist’s writing style to help reach conclusions and even draft tentative rulings.

Maybe I’m a buffoon, but it seems a little strange that CNN capitalized the word “White” in this headline?

It’s long past time that I take responsibility for what I wrote on Israel/Palestine in ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR. & with the Gaza genocide, our thinking about what amends & healing may ever involve is even more urgent. Even if there may never be “forgiveness” or “atonement.”

I do not celebrate any murder. I do not celebrate the violent death of any human being, nor the loss of any chance for repentance & repair. None. And those on the right must note that this is the "deal" for which Kirk himself actively advocated. Pass better gun policy if you don't like murder!

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen? We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.

There’s a bunch of reasons that people frame Musk with “Well he did accomplish xyz, but..” and maybe the most powerful is that if you accept that he’s really a sociopathic scammer born with an emerald spoon in his mouth, and not a genius at all, the whole system gets a whole lot harder to defend.
