So far as I can tell, this mostly directs the AG to file lawsuits seeking to void state laws that prohibit "AIs" from being racist. Unfortunately, I don't think they will be able to file all of these suits in Texas.

The shutdown deal includes a ban on hemp products that none of its negotiators debated in public.
Disappointing that only 24 senators voted against killing an amendment to strike that ban.

Last weekend, @annabower.bsky.social started to receive Signal messages from the U.S. attorney who is leading the prosecution of Letitia James.
Throughout the exchange, Lindsay Halligan complained about Bower’s tweets and reporting on the indictment–but never once asked to be off the record.

There are basically only two positions in the debate about AI.
1. I’ve barely invested any time in learning how to use it effectively. AI sucks.
2. I’ve invested in learning how to use this tool. Holy cow, it’s transformational.
Position #1 has lower barriers to entry.

Hegseth is going to unintentionally lay the groundwork for a military coup against his regime, and I think that's beautiful.
Whatever the reason Hegseth is calling all these generals to Virginia for, you gotta assume that it probably could have been an email.

While it's unfortunate that "advice of counsel" letters won't save you after doing war crimes, at least the schmucks whose illegal orders you're following will back you to the hilt (unless it's inconvenient or requires them to care about someone who isn't stupidly wealthy).
Dems ought to be telling people now these letters are worth absolutely nothing.

EXCLUSIVE: New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is calling on FIFA to end dynamic pricing on World Cup tickets.
His petition “Game Over Greed” also demands that FIFA reinstates a cap on ticket resales and sets aside 15 percent of tickets for local residents at a discount.

Pulisic is going to be doing selfies with Trump during the World Cup. Hard to get behind a team whose "superstar" leadership is so painfully pathetic (e.g., the various antics on and off field of Weah, Pulisic, McKennie, and Reyna).
Tim Weah, asked by @jeffreycarlisle.bsky.social if he stands by his use of the word "evil" to describe critics of Christian Pulisic: "100% - I stand by everything I said."
Then says he's focused on the positives & moving forward now.
