Trump claims ICE’s reign of terror in Chicago is targeting the “worst of the worst.”

But out of the 1,000 undocumented immigrants that have swept up, the agency has only cited 10 men with a criminal background.

Don’t believe his lies for a second.

Trump says migrants drive violent crime in Illinois. But ICE can’t find many violent criminals.
Masked ICE agents and other federal forces showed up in Chicago to go after gangsters. Instead, they keep catching people who are just living their lives.

Wikipedia ist alles das, was Elon Musk behauptet, zu wollen: eine open-source Plattform, auf der man kollektiv Wissen sammeln kann.

Was ihn aber stört, ist, dass dort Informationen stehen, die seiner demokratiefeindlichen, hasserfüllten Ideologie widersprechen. Deshalb kämpft er dagegen.

AI can now generate fake microscopy images that are nearly impossible to detect. A serious threat to scientific integrity—and we’re not prepared for it.
