A spate of high-profile scandals is forcing a fresh reckoning over what to do about AI writing, Will Oremus reports.

1/FBI wants to buy nationwide access to license plate readers. Not a warrant.Not a case. A subscription. $36 million to log into a system & watch where every car in US goes.

So let’s get something straight about the unhoused: California is expected to carry a massive share of America’s homelessness crisis, then gets mocked for struggling under the weight of a problem that clearly extends far beyond Los Angeles. 🧵

In Seattle, Facebook, Amazon, real estate management, and ICE all share one thing in common: membership to Seattle Shield, an exclusive intelligence-sharing network operated by the Seattle police.

Every American should be disgusted by this.

NEW: You've asked for the text of my $8.647 million dollar claim to Todd Blanche pursuant to the $1.7B slush fund so you can write your own. Here it is: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ive-fi...

🤯 BREAKING: Ukraine just wiped out a major Russian command center, killing 100 elite troops. President Zelenskyy confirmed a precision SBU drone strike obliterated an FSB special forces headquarters in the Kherson region.

Santa Monica area people, Let's get our TrumpMustGoNow on on the Cloverfield overpass, over the 10 freeway in Santa Monica, on Sunday, May 31st at 4:00 P.M..

This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

This precedent could also be applied to government officials who blow people up in boats without a declared war, due process, evidence, or trial.

Epstein's best friend, Donald Trump, who is currently trying to profit from billions of dollars’ worth of stolen Palestinian land and money, said: ‘I’m right now at 99% in Israel. I could run for prime minister, so maybe after I do this, I’ll go to Israel and run for prime minister.’

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history. It’s not close. No other president has used the office to enrich himself, his family, and his allies on this scale.

Testify at a Senate hearing today, Todd Blanche told Senator Chris Van Hollen he's met with Epstein survivors and their lawyers. Within hours, 18 Epstein survivors released a joint statement contradicting AAG Todd Blanche's testimony, directly accusing him of making false claims. I believe them.

TODAY ELON’S BABY MOMMA SAID HE USED “SPACE TECHNOLOGY” TO STEAL THE 2024 ELECTION AND THE MEDIA WON’T SPEND A SECOND ON IT I PROMISE YOU.

POV: When your political party says the government should operate like a business 🙄 TnT www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

One thing lost in the IRS convo is that there will be a new president at some point who has every right in the world to revisit the conditions of the signed agreement. I suspect that arguments about upholding the good faith of govt contracts will be hard to hear through all the laughter.

NEW: The judge has weighed in on the $1.7 slush fund. I promised an update when she did. Please share widely.

California friends, if you haven’t voted, I urge you to watch Jasmine Crockett’s endorsement of Xavier Becerra. It’s everything. And check back later. I was able to ask both Becerra and Crockett additional questions that I think matter. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @xavierbecerra.bsky.social

Tomorrow is Election Day in Georgia! Following the lead of our local groups, we’ve endorsed Dr. Jasmine Clark in GA-13. Help us get out the vote for a scientist, millennial mom & Democratic fighter who will hold the regime accountable and put working families first: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

It’s VERY IMPORTANT that corporate media NOT frame this as a judicial settlement. Trump DROPPED the suit this morning. There is no lawsuit, and therefore, no settlement. you can’t settle a suit that doesn’t exist. This is just pure theft.

Leaving to Red States like Texas, from New York and California, Sure Has Its Consequences. 😱 ⚰️⭐🤠 A Texas Drainage District Walked Its Ditch on a Routine Inspection.

OK forget about what I said yesterday - THIS is the absolute worst picture of Trump ever taken. So for fuck’s sake, out of basic human decency, do not retweet it and accidentally expose more people to it. Fuckface would be devastated.

In just months, Zohran Mamdani has shown what politics looks like when leaders actually try governing for ordinary people instead of donors and cable news panels. Affordable housing, childcare, transit, workers’ dignity and immigrant protection are not “radical” ideas.

The most corrupt president in history:

The Religious Right is desperate these days to pretend that "Christian Nationalism" is (1) a recently-invented term and (2) a pejorative invented by their enemies, but neither of those claims is remotely true. Here's a short thread, but I'm sure other historians will have examples too.

This is flying under the radar, but Trump's cronies have started their own organization to plan 250th anniversary events. Not only is their "Freedom 250" receiving taxpayer funds, it's also soliciting big donations from corporations in exchange for face time with Trump. Everything is for sale.

New from me: Five years ago, I criticized a San Francisco TV reporter for getting her facts wrong. Ever since, she and her allies have alleged that I was part of a conspiracy to end her career. That narrative just got a boost with her new book, which is being promoted by some powerful tech people.

Kars4Kids ads make it sound like your car donations helped children in need. A California judge just BANNED the ads across the state because that’s a lie. Donations actually fund Orthodox Jewish indoctrination programs and matchmaking services. open.substack.com/pub/friendly...

President Zelenskyy honored the victims of the russian attack on May 14, expressing condolences to all families who lost their loved ones as a result of russia’s terror.

"A leaked contract reveals that the parent company of the region's most prominent independent broadcasters is preparing to offload its media empire to investors tied to the (former) Hungarian government, following months of controversial newsroom purges."

“Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents are being told to find a new power provider because the grid is being re-routed to A.I. data centers.”

For the umpteenth time: The most corrupt president in American history.

Another bad week for democracy folks. But we have to keep hope alive Alabama. VOTE May 19th!

“Some inmates who served with Ghislaine Maxwell say they were punished by prison staff for talking about her alleged special treatment. One woman says after speaking to a reporter, she was punished.” Totally normal and not suspicious at all.

My latest—A Long Island school district agreed to settle a lawsuit w/ a Muslim former student for $100k. They added 25k to avoid what she really wanted: public acknowledgement that her pro-Palestine art they painted over wasn’t actually antisemitic hate speech. Exclusive report from The Handbasket:
