A former DOGE staffer developed an AI tool that hallucinated the size of Veterans Affairs contracts. For example, it concluded that more than a thousand deals were each worth $34 million, when in fact some were for as little as $35,000. (Published June)

Los Angeles firefighters lacked enough resources and struggled to communicate clearly in the first 36 hours of January’s devastating Palisades Fire, according to a report released Wednesday by the fire department.

It will also be very interesting to see what the city's after-action report even says since the county's after-action report did not attribute blame or responsibility. LA city officials also refused to cooperate with the LA County report

Jonathan Rinderknecht, a white man, was charged with starting the Palisades Fire. But on X, the company's news summary tab shows a photo of a black man.

AI’s massive energy appetite is sparking a nuclear stock frenzy. Investors are betting big on technologies that may not power data centers for years

Awful. It’s early but this appears to be a junta or junta-aligned attack on civilian protesters. (Reminder: ICE has deported at least 20 people to Myanmar this year.) www.bbc.com/news/article...

He’s lying about Chicago & Portland. He’s purposely creating division & hate. He wants the military firing on citizens. We must oppose him with everything we have. We are all Chicago. We are all Portland. Our community Substack. Check it out.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

Judge Again Blocks Guard Deployment as Trump Expands His Targets www.nytimes.com/2025/10/05/u... Obviously, these deployments are illegal… and simply an abuse of power

BREAKING: Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from deploying any National Guard troops in Oregon.

1. BREAKING Judge Immergut, who was nominated by President Trump, has just granted a request by Oregon and California to block the deployment of National Guard troops from Texas and California to Portland.

The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Think the GOP's shutdown-driven health care crisis won't affect you? Think again. If Republicans don't reverse course, average enrollee premiums on California's Health Insurance Exchange are set to skyrocket come January.

Or Trump is a lifelong liar and propagandist who doesn't care if he's caught because he knows he won't be punished. Trump is not the admin's main ideologue, but the idea that he's brainwashed instead of flagrantly lying is bizarrely generous. Flagrant lying showcases power. He's always done it.

Really, truly amazing that OpenAI wants us to believe that they are worth a trillion dollars but also they are so desperate for revenue that they created an infinite SlopTok app that opens them up to a billion lawsuits just so that they can maybe someday make it even worse by filling it with ads.
