Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

it's enormously telling that Karen Attiah, Mehdi Hassan, Joy Reid are not currently employed in mainstream media, but Olivia Nuzzi is treated like an irreplaceable asset by multiple outlets.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

so currently defectors are:

Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)

I still get angry about Sinema now and then but I gotta say, Fetterman softens the blow a little, because yikes. Just off-the-charts on the ol' Wrongometer for everyone involved

This isn’t to say they aren’t going to try to do fascism or do very dangerous or sadistic things for the sake of making content, we’re seeing that with the boats in Venezuela, but that you have to think about them as content creators first because everything makes more sense if you do.

I must continue to insist that this is not a strong regime. It does not have the kind of pan-societal support needed to enforce Gleichshaltung. It has significant elite buy-in and a small popular coalition, but it is brittle and feeble and will collapse if pressed hard enough.
Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.
BIG crowd of people shouting at police.
"Fuck you!"
"What is wrong with you!"
"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"
