I spoke to the person who AI-generated the Chicago Sun-Times reading list. Says he's very embarrassed. This was part of a generic package inserted into newspapers and other publications, so likely to run elsewhere. He didn't know it'd be in Chicago Sun-Times

FYI: Part of the "woke" "DEI" training in the military is where they tell guys not to rape women. Republicans want that to stop. These are the same people who said my rape was my fault because rape is an "occupational hazard."

It’s unreal to watch our country be bought in real time. Watching Hegseth, backed by unlimited funds, march through these farcical hearings is sickening. A dark-money group tied to Elon Musk spent $500k pressuring Joni Ernst to fall in line. These senators are bought and paid for—this is a takeover.
