📌Dick Cheney helped push W. Bush into an illegal war based on lies that resulted in the killing and wounding of hundreds of thousands of innocent troops and civilians, and then profited handsomely off of it.
He was one of history's worst people. Don't dishonor the dead by honoring this monster.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Why can’t we use AI to do something useful like fix trying to stream/encode/compress smooth video streams rather than do gimmicky chatbot filler.

Some of us have real problems like trying to stream a movie that doesn’t turn into a Minecraft block field when the scene gets dark

Lots of news from US, and this is especially significant.

The DoJ suspends a lawyer for candour to the court when answering judge’s questions.

This is important, as any lawyer has duties both to client and to the court. The system breaks down otherwise.

This is seriously f’d up
First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.

“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"

Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots
The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.
