At 250 feet tall, Trump's arch would be the biggest such structure in the world. Asked last fall what this modern-day arch was meant to commemorate, Trump pointed to himself and replied, “Me.” @sbg1 newyorker.com/news/letter-fr…

Ashley St. Clair on Benny Johnson: “Since I came out about Benjamin Grindr Johnson, people have been threatening to expose me so I’m just gonna do it myself. I’ve had sex with men outside of marriage. You see Benny? It easy for anyone to admit they have sex with men outside of marriage. I think everyone will be very interested in your financials”

If the administration has its way, for the same reasons identified here, eligible citizens won't be able to vote, either.

Here we go again folks ⬇️ U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed that a Trump's executive order requiring banks to collect citizenship information is “in process": 1. The requirement would apply to all bank customers which would require banks to collect citizenship documentation from: - New customers, and - Existing customers who already have accounts. Banks would be required to go back and obtain proof of citizenship from their entire customer base. 2. REAL IDs would not satisfy the EO standard or the requirement. REAL IDs verify identity and address, but they do not prove citizenship. 3. Passports are the primary document but the EO is focused on citizenship, including: - U.S. passports - U.S. passport cards - Birth certificates - Naturalization certificates Banks have warned that more than half of U.S. adults do not have a passport. 4. Birth certificates with different names would require additional documentation. A birth certificate proves citizenship at birth, but not current identity. If the name on the birth certificate does not match the customer’s current legal name, banks would need linking documents, such as: - Marriage certificate - Divorce decree - Court‑ordered name change - Adoption decree These documents must be certified copies. 5. Banks, industry groups and financial‑privacy experts have raised concerns about the EO: : - Millions of current bank customers could lose access to bank accounts if they cannot produce the required documents. - Rural residents, seniors, low‑income individuals, and people without passports would be disproportionately affected. - Banks would be required to store sensitive citizenship documents, creating new data‑security risks. 6. Experts have noted unresolved issues: - How citizenship data would be stored and protected - Whether federal agencies could access the information - How banks would handle customers who cannot produce documents - The cost and feasibility of verifying tens of millions of existing accounts newsweek.com/trump-executiv…

Prediction from a year ago about AI backlash that looks to be on track:
Gary Marcus@GaryMarcus
Public backlash against AI will so be strong by 2028 that anti-AI sentiment will probably be a major factor in the 2028 US Presidential election. AI could have been a great thing. Greed, overhype, and recklessness have screwed it up.
