1. Some updates on the major retailers of the National Enquirer that I highlighted in popular.info yesterday.

75% of sales come from chain stores.

The two biggest @Walmart (23%) and @Kroger (10%) have not gotten back to me

popular.info/p/enquiring-mi…
@Walmart @kroger 2. @FoodLion got back to me and said it was going to continue to sell the National Enquirer despite AMI's alleged criminal activity
3. Barnes and Noble (@BNBuzz) told me that it no longer sells the National Enquirer in stores. (It does offer electronic subscriptions through it's Nook ereader.)
4. The National Enquirer, by its own admission, has conspired with Trump and his campaign. It is part of his political operation.

These are the companies keeping it afloat

1. Today seems like a good day to remember all the women who have accused Trump of sexual assault.

Just because he became president doesn't make their stories any less important
2. Ninni Laaksonen, former Miss Finland. “Trump stood right next to me and suddenly he squeezed my butt” in July 2006.
3. Jessica Drake. Said Trump grabbed and kissed her without consent, then offered her 10K for sex in 2006.

1. Serial child abusers can't operate alone. They need people to protect them.

Alex Acosta, who is currently Trump's Secretary of Labor, helped protect Jeffrey Epstein from the consequences of sexually abusing dozens (maybe hundreds) of teen girls

popular.info/p/protecting-s…
2. As U.S. Attorney in Miami, Acosta could have put Epstein away for life. Instead, he agreed not to prosecute Epstein in exchange for him pleading guilty to two prostitution counts.

Epstein's victims were not prostitutes. They were girls.

popular.info/p/protecting-s…
3. Epstein ended up serving 13 months. But most of that time wasn't even spent behind bars. He was allowed to spend 12 hours a day in a luxury office he set up on "work release." This was allowed even though sex offenders aren't eligible for work release

1. There is an aspect of the media coverage in North Carolina election fraud scandal that is very troubling.

I gave the reporter involved, @NickOchsnerWBTV, a chance to explain but he's not getting back to me.

But people need to know about what happened.
@NickOchsnerWBTV 2. One of the key interviews of the campaign was when @NickOchsnerWBTV interviewed Lisa Britt, one of the people in Dowless' operation, on December 12.

In the interview Britt denied she had been paid to collect ballots & denied doing anything illegal.

3. Later, when Britt talked to the committee she admitted that yes, Dowless had paid her to collect ballots, which is against the law.

She explained that she lied during the interview because IT TOOK PLACE IN DOWLESS' KITCHEN WITH DOWLESS PRESENT newsobserver.com/news/politics-…

National Enquirer VS Amazon. The buzz around the twitterverse starting yesterday was about Amazon Servers hosting National Enquirers websites!!! Oh my, they speculation began....
So, if you open your Dos prompts and begin "lookups" you can see that the "whois" stuff is accurate right? Sure, certainly.
The irony begins at the behemoth conglomerate at some point gobbling up a hosting service which just so happened to carry the National Enquirer. I thought that was neat, the sheer luck right?

How is there still no reporting on what people in Javanka’ synagogues think of them and their various horrific efforts and attempts at spin?
Part of the reason is National Enquirer, TMZ, Murdoch properties are in tank for Trump. But come on, this is also a story for NYT, NY Daily News, WaPo, Forward, NY Mag etc etc.
It. Is. Just. Sitting. There.

#National Security & The #BokoHaram Insurgency: On The Most Pressing Challenges Currently Facing The @HQNigerianArmy's Operations
@HQNigerianArmy 1. None to the exclusion of the other, the operations are as intensely dogged by issues which stem from the human factor ( MANPOWER) as they are majorly constrained by issues of logistics and ewuipment (MATERIEL)
@HQNigerianArmy We shall xray the storied human factor subsequently but let us begin from the area of materiel where we shall be making some revelations that are as in-depth as they are unprecedented...never been broached with such specificty

Walmart insists you show a receipt. They can’t do that. 1) you didn’t sign a membership agreement (aka Costco) and 2) once you buy a product, they’re searching your property. You have the right to refuse. @Walmart any comments on how your worker treated my mother?
2) She behaves differently pre-recording. My mother had to go into Walmart for a can of paint (we avoid at all costs) and she insinuated my mother was stealing when she said “no” to the receipt check. She threatened to call a manager.
(3) the manager arrived. Allowed her to belittle the customer and speak in a patronizing tone. She then doesn’t like hearing the word “sh*t”? Please 🙄 #walmart #KnowYourRights #Shopping #CustomerService

@mdudas @nic__carter @StartupLJackson Back in 13/14, I was convinced BTC would be used as an in-app, censorship resistant, API-driven new currency.

I even tried to build a complex, API-based payment network for it. It didn't work. Finally, accepted Bitcoin's limitations as "p2p e-cash".

Then met Vitalik/Anthony/EF.
@mdudas @nic__carter @StartupLJackson Didn't quite understand how you could "print new money" on top of new, speculative money. I was a contrarian here as my SV "platform" friends ❤️'d it.
@mdudas @nic__carter @StartupLJackson Instead of building on Ethereum, I took a bet and put some BTC into the pre-sale. Then, left the crypto space (out of frustration with Bitcoin).

Jumped back in when I realized zero-fee, in-app, API-based, and censorship resistant payments still was a problem needing a solution.

Yesterday I made a data set of AI headlines and played with an RNN (recurrent neural network) to generate new AI headlines.

It went...not so well. Unless you're psyched about "President Battlestar"

In the process of copying and pasting 1,000 headlines from TechCrunch, The Verge, Recode, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Slate, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Reddit, The National Review, Fox News, the MIT Technology Review, and The Onion, I learned some things.
1. Each news source has a distinct style (journalists are prob cringing right now)

*TechCrunch*
a. [startup] raises [amount] [round] for [purpose]
b. [megacorp's] [product] [does a thing] [criticism of thing]
b. [corp] acquires [startup] to [innovation-sounding thing]
