Truth. Go back to Benny Johnson and other bro-fluencers being bankrolled by RU, go back to the 2018 4th of July visit to Moscow by R senators, look at the removal of Ukraine support from the GOP platform, look at the talking points parroted by all r/wing media which line-by-line is RU propaganda ...

An “education” from a TX university is not education at all! “We are not allowed to teach topics that are relevant to things like the MCAT and being practicing medical professionals,” she told me. “We are not allowed to teach them scientifically, accurately.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Republicans in tight House and Senate races are distancing themselves from President Trump or downplaying their ties to him. Meanwhile, Democrats have expanded their House target list to 66 GOP-held districts, including some deep in Trump country. The midterm map is growing. Vote! #Midterms2026

After years of championing "free speech," Texas lawmakers have enabled a dramatic rise of censorship in Texas universities, banning concepts, canceling courses and closing departments seen as "woke," and even using AI bots as censors. All in the name of freedom. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

In other professors’ syllabi, the bot flagged the Pulitzer Prize–winning play Angels in America by Tony Kushner, essays by the Mexican American MacArthur genius grant recipient Sandra Cisneros, and materials related to a class about the Holocaust (that professor was told to drop material regarding Nazi persecution of LGBTQ people).

Putting aside the ideological slant of the new rules, the bot, like many large language models, seems to “hallucinate,” or make mistakes. The AAUP lawsuit lists texts banned for their “sex-based ecofeminist framework” and “gendered ecofeminist frameworks.” These phrases might sound persuasively like academese, but the academics behind the lawsuit had never heard of them; these concepts “do not exist,” the complaint says. Matthew Pehl, a history professor at Tech, told me that he knew several people who’d received reports from the system that were “plainly written by an AI that had hallucinated content or confused content from one class to another.”

Zelenskyy: "Prices are rising because of the war in the Middle East, the blocking of Hormuz. Everyone understands it. If we want to speak with people fairly, if we want to be clear, if we want to speak with our nations openly, people have to hear reality. Don't play games with people."

it's a bit concerning that instead of responding to obvious political incentives and moderating on some of their worst and most unpopular policies, the Trump administration is getting more and more extreme

Documents released by a watchdog group suggest that despite Trump's promise to fund Freedom 250 events through private donations, taxpayers largely footed the bill. The budget estimates leave open questions about where tens of millions in private donations ended up.

I said this was the case when the shitshow started. I don’t need @robertreich.substack.com.web.brid.gy to tell me what happened. But it’s nice to be validated. This is fascism. It’s what the fascists want. Empty shelves like E Germany circa 1988. robertreich.substack.com/p/is-trump-t...

Yes. His cuts in food safety have literally caused a shitshow.
