Pete Hegseth: "This is war"

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

LLMs are like toddlers:

Toddlers don't always follow all your instructions, even when you're explicit.

Toddlers want to please you, so they sometimes make stuff up.

You need to carefully watch toddlers when they perform tasks to ensure they don't lose focus.

Would they have double tapped an elementary school without Claude? Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe a human would have checked the data. They wouldn’t have had a layer of plausible deniability. The AI is a search engine and pattern recognition tool, and it doesn’t think or reason.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending

Slashing regulations

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Florence ICE detainee dead after untreated tooth infection, official says An ICE detainee, who had been at a Florence detention center for four months, died Monday following an untreated tooth infection.

Last year, at least 32 people died in ICE custody — the most in 2 decades. Reports show at least 9 have died already this year. How many more before Republicans act?

Trump & Republicans cut Medicaid & SNAP to give this lawless agency an extra $75 BILLION.

Not one more dime.

The US economy lost 92,000 jobs last month, far worse than expected.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

If we survive this, I really hope parents take a long look at how they are teaching empathy to their children. It's so obvious that that is the missing ingredient in huge chunks of the population, amplified by social media algorithms and cultural rewards for reactions rather than thoughtfulness.

2 'Lazarus' animals thought to be extinct for over 7,000 years found alive in New Guinea The pygmy long-fingered possum and the ring-tailed glider, until now known only through fossils, have been rediscovered.

Two marsupial species thought long extinct, until now known only from fossils, were found alive in New Guinea through a collaboration of scientists, indigenous communities and citizen scientists.

The people burying their heads in the sand an allowing this monster to drive our country off a cliff without any attempt to seek the truth are reprehensible. I'm afraid he'll die of natural causes before anyone does anything....

Yesterday, I asked Kristi Noem’s former number 2, whether he disagreed with Noem’s statement that Renee Good & Alex Pretti were “domestic terrorists."

He refused to answer.

It's clear no one in this Administration knows right from wrong. He should not be representing our country.

And this is all he had to replace Noem.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Biden: "We're in a tough spot, folks. We've got an administration that doesn't share any of the values we have. And I don't think I'm exaggerating."

Biden: "Jesse kept hope alive for us, and we've gotta continue to do it in our lifetime for our children. Because there's nothing beyond our capacity when we work together. So stand up! And finish this job."
