Breaking: The New York Times is suing the Department of Defense over the Pentagon’s new restrictions on press access. The Times is seeking a declaration that the new policy is unconstitutional on its face and an injunction barring its enforcement. Here's my story >>

The lawsuit, set to be filed in federal court in Washington, DC, names the Defense Department, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and the chief Pentagon spokesman, Sean Parnell, as defendants.

Unclear why Trump and crew want to give hundreds of children a fatal diagnosis rather than a safe, quick vaccine. I’ve never seen adults so bad at logic

For decades, newborns in the U.S. have been given the hepatitis B vaccine. This could change. A CDC vaccine advisory panel may vote to end that routine vaccination. Here's what parents should know. n.pr/4q7VSh5

This is a crazy statistic—because if only 20% had ANY criminal record you can bet a lot was low level. Just rounding up local workers, parents, etc after race-based stops. Story notes it’s disproportionately Guatemalans, for some reason

More than 80 percent of the immigrants arrested in D.C. during the surge in federal law enforcement this year had no prior criminal record, newly released federal data shows, even though that crackdown was portrayed as targeting violent crime. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Major country stars like Jelly Roll are being pitched music with their own voices deepfaked onto the demo tracks, just a small part of how AI tools like Suno have taken over Nashville. Wild piece by @charlieharding.bsky.social for us -> www.theverge.com/ai-artif….

Songwriter Trannie Anderson — who’s written for Lainey Wilson, Dan + Shay, and Reba McEntire — says the tech is ubiquitous. Though she doesn’t use it herself, she sees wide use “from entry-level songwriters to the top dogs.” She isn’t exaggerating; multiple sources have told me that even stars like Dustin Lynch and Jelly Roll are being sent pitches with their voices artificially generated into demos, something AI voice transfer makes possible. Lynch’s manager Brad Belanger confirmed this, adding, “What a world we’re moving into.” Jelly Roll’s representatives declined to comment on the record.

What if when Uber's app launched, you had to use VERY SPECIFIC WORDS to summon a car or else it might show up 4 streets over or drive you to Albania? I suspect we would have given up. And yet: www.theverge.com/tech/837….

I tried Comet’s “find important unanswered emails” prompt in the other AI browsers. They all highlighted other previously skipped, keyword-stuffed pitches. None flagged the two emails I was interested in. So I tried even harder:

Find unanswered emails in which I had previously responded with interest or feature personalized requests/feedback. Then, evaluate which ones I should respond to based on timeliness and keywords such as “embargo” featuring dates in the next two weeks. Ignore emails with multiple follow-ups to which I have not responded.

This went slightly better with Comet and Dia. Both surfaced multiple relevant email threads, but only one ultimately required a response. Copilot in Edge highlighted one relevant thread and five junk pitches. Gemini in Chrome was a dud: It surfaced only a Black Friday marketing email.

In Atlas, ChatGPT merely replied, “It looks like Gmail successfully returned the unread message IDs, but the actual content for those messages didn’t come back — the batch read returned empty, which means the Gmail API didn’t provide the email bodies this round.” It proceeded to ask two long-winded follow-ups. At this point, my options were to refine my prompt further or give up.

I gave up.

Why on earth is any Democrat voting for ANYTHING that Trump wants? EVEN IF there were a valid reason not to be moving on impeachment (and there isn't!) continuing with business as usual puts the sledgehammer being wielded against our democracy in their hands.

Rodriguez’s leadership role on the board of Mira Via underscores her alignment
with organizations that oppose reproductive rights. Mira Via explicitly affirms life
“from the moment of conception,” situating Rodriguez firmly within the anti-
abortion movement. Her long membership in the Federalist Society and Republican
National Lawyers Association further underscores her alignment with conservative
legal networks committed to rolling back reproductive freedom, LGBTQ+ rights, and
other substantive constitutional protections.
STAUNCH CONSERVATIVE ADVOCACY
Since joining the bench, Rodriguez has issued rulings that repeatedly favor
corporations, law enforcement, and institutions over individuals seeking relief.
In Rodriguez v. Wipro Ltd., she ruled against a whistleblower who raised concerns
about corporate conflicts of interest and later suffered retaliation that exacerbated
serious health conditions, dismissing the case for failure to exhaust administrative
remedies. In Puranda v. City of Charlotte, she dismissed a civil rights case brought
by an 18-year-old subjected to an aggressive traffic stop, where officers allegedly
drew weapons, forcibly removed him from his car, and detained him without cause.
In Robey v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, she rejected claims brought
by parents whose child had repeatedly disclosed self-harm to a school counselor
who failed to notify them, ultimately leading to a hospitalization. In each of these
cases, Rodriguez prioritized institutional protection over the workers, children, and
their families who simply wanted justice when they were hurt.

The thing I remind myself of often is that the top 1% of U.S. households own 50% of the stock market, and basically almost all of the rest is owned by the top 10%* *technically, the bottom 90% of U.S. households own 7-10% of the stock market
