CNN: CNN just getting report that the smoke appears to be rising from the vicinity of Fort Tiona, which is where the Venezuelan ministry of defense is headquartered, which would seem to indicate that somebody is targeting the defenses of Venezuela.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

Ahhhhh, it turns out that this video was put together by Freedom 250, Donald Trump's MAGA nonprofit organization, and not by America 250, the official, congressionally created U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission. Well that sure explains it.
A video is being projected on the Washington Monument this week to commemorate the semiquincentennial.
It's a technical marvel. But the narration and images are like what you'd get if you asked a right-wing undergrad to summarize U.S. history in 1,000 words and he uses ChatGPT to cook up an answer.

The fact that someone calculated that a $25,000,000 political donation in a six month period was a rational business decision says a lot about how precarious the people pushing AI think the fate of the technology is.

CBS News laid off 100 people to fund Bari Weiss’s armed-guard, private-jet tour of American cities. I was once moderately optimistic that I could keep finding valuable CBS content, but no more. John Dickerson is gone; Margaret Brennan should go. Removing CBS from the dial, sadly.

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

News editor of @mississippifreepress.org with a much better sense of journalism than this guy placed by Bari Weiss in the anchor chair.
This isn't about democratizing the news. It's about elevating "vibes" and "feelings" to be on par with lived experience and subject-matter expertise.

A fucking primary care clinic called the cops on this woman. Self-managed abortion is not a crime:
"...reported to police Wednesday, Dec. 31, after she told workers at United Clinic in Campton she had aborted her pregnancy at her home, according to a Jan. 1 news release from [state police]."

By retreating only to "kitchen table issues" to avoid being labeled "woke," Democratic leaders have left an open goal for the GOP. When you treat the harassment of vulnerable communities as a "distraction" rather than a crisis, you're not avoiding a fight: you're just forfeiting it.
