Think AI is causing an epidemic of cheating in academia? One professor says the roots are deeper, and universities have to face the real challenge: built-in habits of dishonesty. theconversation.com/many-college...

I call Elon Musk a Nazi because he's an avowed white supremacist who undermines democracies, incites pogroms, targets minorities, intentionally caused the death of >750,000 people (so far) while laughing about it ("feeding USAID into the wood chipper"), and did a Sieg Heil at Trump's inauguration.

Elon Musk's right-wing civility cop sycophants have been in a snit because the world's biggest corporate welfare queen is getting criticized for tripling his net worth in the two years since his money helped Trump get re-elected. (new @ms.now column)

Has there ever been a more accurate meme?

Extra pathetic is the fact that providing care outside of the institutions is almost always more affordable than in the institutions. 🤬😢

“What are you in for?” “I stuck my hand in the Reflecting Pool.” **other inmates race back to their cells and hide**

"Shame on the Reflecting Pool for allowing itself it to seem like a failure...Nobody likes a giant, shallow pool that understands how metaphors work." A red, white & green flag?

Hormuz vessel crossings: @bloomberg.com

Graph of Strait of Hormuz crossings since June 2025. See that little spike all the way on the right? The one that's much lower than the leftward 2/3 of the graph, and immediately crashes back down? That's what the US government and quite a bit of US media tell us is fully open, with normal traffic.

Will Trump ever get over his Obama envy? Weeks like this one are why the answer is probably no, never. My new piece at @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-stil...

Chilling on JD Vance, from @davidrlurie.com www.publicnotice.co/p/vance-iran...

Another brazen lie from Captain Condescension JD Vance gets community voted 👇🏽🤥

Trump keeps insisting that he has the power to do anything, legal, mostly illegal. He tramples on the Constitution, Congress, Supreme Court . . . He has exhausted all appeals, yet the tarp remains on the Kennedy Center.

Someone has been projecting images all over D.C. “It’s swampier than ever.” The Kennedy Center one is pretty hilarious. 😂😂😂

J. D. Vance is attempting to build a distinctly MAGA vision of AI, Vivian Salama reports. She spoke with the VP and economic experts to understand his AI doctrine:

How Christian of him 🙄

Iran’s foreign minister praised Pakistan and Qatar for their mediation, saying they “delivered major progress” to end the war in Lebanon. The three countries acknowledged the end of the first round of talks in Switzerland. The U.S. hasn’t commented.

The legal battle over President Donald Trump’s effort to crack down on mail voting is heating up. And Democracy Docket is covering it more closely than any other news outlet. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Great to catch up with my friend, AG Tish James, this weekend to discuss the work we're doing together to take on Big Tech and protect New Yorkers—especially our kids.

Watching the inaugural speeches at the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria. This is so inspiring. gellungwarl.org/live/

As billions watch World Cup matches, a historical event is unfolding in the state of Victoria in Australia. The First Peoples' Assembly will shape a treaty addressing what one said is “mitigating the worst harms of the system and institutions." Gellung Warl is the name of the Aboriginal-led body.

#TX Gov Abbott is in campaign mode and thinks speaking out against Big Tech looks good to some voters. It’s all meaningless, of course. Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and others have accepted staggering amounts of money from these people. #Texas #DataCenters www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/lett...

Ok, if the Dutch can ride in Houston, maybe that god forsaken city is salvageable.

Good to see President Trump is focused on the big issues of the day.
