After Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, they were not kicked out by Eurovision - Every country threatened to boycott the event which forced Eurovision’s hand. Let’s see if countries join together again.

Hegseth is following President Trump’s orders, and Trump is immune to prosecution as per SCOTUS. If Hegseth, or his military, kill civilians (including protesters or any Dem politicians), who will stop Trump from doing so? He can pardon everyone. There is no accountability on them now.

Thx! You explained it well - AIOps are focused and do the job well. OpenAI, Anthropic, and the other big LLMs are too broad for most automations. If the big LLMs cannot (or do not) explain how they trained, and can’t explain the output, then they can’t be used for real business.

I’m a confused Canuck, too, but since the 2010 “Citizens United” case, it is legal to funnel secret “contributions” with dark money. My guess is a friend of the former Honduras President “donated” to the Trump admin in exchange. Perfectly legal in their current system.

What if the SCOTUS says it’s ok, though? 🤷♂️ There are many Voting Act cases up their docket these days, so don’t be shocked if they change how elections are done.

Everyone complicit is this with her in the federal government should share a cell with her, then - even IT support staff, admin assistants. This is human rights violations at its worst.

If Comey is charged again for lying during the “Russia hoax”, can he then provide public evidence confirming the connection? 🤷♂️

Epstein’s 1st job was a teacher at the prestigious Dalton school in NYC. After 2 years, he was let go due to his behavior around young girls. The father of a boy in his class gave him a high-paying job at a hedge fund. Was he hired because, or in spite of, his firing at Dalton? It started there…

Maybe Zelenskyy can bring Mamdani as a negotiator. If he does, Ukraine may end up owning Moscow by the end of it. Hopefully, Ukraine doesn’t forfeit any lands at all, but if so, they need some kind of security that Putin won’t just continue a month later.

If the DOJ goes after Comey for “Russia Gate”, and the prosecutors say that he’s lying about what the FBI has/had, can the FBI agents, under oath, then go out and confirm, with evidence, that Trump colluded with Russia in 2016? If so, can it be televised? 🤷♂️

76% of ppl unhappy with economy (from a Fox News poll!), and 72% of Americans (overall) not happy with the attacks against Venezuelan boats. For those who survived those attacks, the Coast Guard sent them back instead of arresting them - so, not criminals.

Call me skeptical. When Pam Bondi was in her Senate approval meetings, she said that her priority was to show evidence of fraud in the 2020 elections. I fully expect her to put out this report between Christmas & New Year’s and say that elections are rigged and should be suspended. Stay tuned…

For those in Europe, or other locations that use GDPR, what Google did is illegal. Europeans, after changing the settings to opt out, can use the “right to be forgotten” clause to compel Google to remove all the data from that individual. Proton mail is a strong alternative, as well.

Or, Trump told them to go ahead anyway as the files will be “sealed under investigation” for the next several centuries.
