”A whole civilisation will die tonight” Just like that, a casual quip, threatening to wipe out 93 million people. nytimes.com/live/2026/04/0…

Hesarin mukaan kyseessä oli tekoälyn tekemä virhe. Kiire ja huolimattomuus joka siitä väistämättä seuraa, yhdistettynä tekoälyn käyttöön kriittisen tärkeässä (vieraan vallan isku maahan) journalismissa. Tässä on isomman keskustelun paikka. En tosin pidätä hengitystäni.

Journalismilla on Suomessa ihan liian kiire. Nyt Hesari uutisoi kiireessä, että droonit olivat venäläisiä vaikka ne olivat ukrainalaisia. Miksi on tärkeämpää olla nopea kuin oikeassa? Tällaiset vahingot nakertavat jo valmiiksi heikkenevää luottamusta perinteiseen mediaan.

Heartbreaking.

Churchill MGᵀᴹ 🇺🇦🇨🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇸@ChurchillFella

Ukrainian volunteers evacuating civilians while Russian terrorists trying to hunt them down with drones. Just look in the eyes of the scared little girl. Heartbreaking. Never forget. Never forgive.

Republicans against Trump@RpsAgainstTrump

Stephen Miller praised Trump for several minutes. Then Trump turned to Kash Patel and said, “Kash, see if you can top that.” Patel: “Mr. President, thank you for delivering the safest country on God’s green Earth.” Straight up North Korea vibes

Dubai sold the world a skyline. Today tourists in Dubai are filming missile interceptions from the beach instead of sunsets. Every video shared is a tourism brochure burning in real time. You cannot sell safety at 2,000 dollars a night when your guests are watching air defense systems work from their 5 star hotel

Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.

In any other time or presidency, this story. reported by @WSJ, would be an earthquake of a scandal. The size, scope and implications of it are unprecedented and mind-boggling. But will this Congress, which brayed endlessly about the "Biden crime family," probe it? Not a chance.

It is difficult to describe what kind of morally depraved, malignantly narcissistic mindset you have to have to only ‘feel bad’ for dead people based on whether their parents voted for you. He may be the worst person to ever feature in American public life.

Crooked Media@CrookedMedia

“And I’m not sure about [Alex Pretti’s] parents, but I know [Renee Good’s] parents were big Trump fans. Makes me feel bad anyway, but, I mean, I guess you could say even worse— They were tremendous Trump people, Trump fans.” —Trump

It remains incomprehensible to me that any country still considering itself civilized allows federal officers to appear: 1. Masked; 2. Armed; 3. Without name tags; 4. Without any accountability. ICE belongs to military dictatorships. Has Trump already brought the US there? Sad.

💙🌊 Zero Dark Twenty-Nine 🌊🌊🖋️🧫@herotimeszero

No, they're not Navy Seals. They're not Delta Force. They're not going to fight terrorists, or foreign armies, or organized crime, or violent criminals. They have all that firepower to beat up grannies from Honduras, go up against 5-year-olds, and shoot Americans in the back.
