Pretty impressive that the Trump administration has systematically failed to answer any of the questions asked in this checklist. They couldn't have done more to set themselves up for failure if they had tried.

Sorry, my initial post was wrong (as @chronotope.aramzs.xyz pointed out.) This reporting says AI systems were used for targeting was used in Iran, and that it was likely responsible for the school strike. It doesn't identify Claude. But we do know Claude was being used: www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

β€œFor me, the most ironic token of [the first human moon landing] is the plaque signed by President Richard M. Nixon that Apollo 11 took to the moon.

It reads: 'We came in peace for all Mankind.' As the United States was dropping 7 Β½ megatons of conventional explosives on small nations in Southeast Asia, we congratulated ourselves on our humanity. We would harm no one on a lifeless rock.”

My goodness the scam calls are coming thick and furious today. Is there a reason for the sudden uptick? Could it be that scammers prey upon people who may be confused in uncertain times?

After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club β€” one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos.

Here’s my investigation:

Trump told us what he thinks of our soldiers and our efforts in Afghanistan.

If Canada even gives this request a moment's thought, then Canadians need to be marching in the streets.

Moving metrics: How the Ford government pulled back reporting its successes and failures | Globalnews.ca Targets, such as opening dates for transit lines and GHG emissions, have been removed from scrutiny, while a housing tracker set up a few years ago displays data from 2024.

Every single issue they’re pulling back on are #FordsFailures

Every every single one of these issues are hallmarks of a just society.

Ghost Gurney won’t give up on our ER stats though. Being chronically pissed works for us.
