🧵Look past the language of Trump trying to "control" elections, and you see that DHS and DOJ are hard at work trying to clean up our elections.
Reuters uncovered a broader‑than‑previously known Trump administration effort to gain federal control over elections, historically run locally, in at least eight states – using investigations, raids and demands for access to balloting systems and voter ID."

Here's where Reuters gets the language of "control" from. It's understandable, but it's also hyperbole—hyperbole that Trump also uses, so fair is fair.
About one third of the way into the article, Reuters admits Trump isn't really trying to implement a federal takeover of elections.
"Rather than seek a sweeping federal takeover of elections, the administration appears to be testing constitutional limits one state and one county at a time"

This in particular is shocking. The tactics (including in the media) were to create a fog of confusion around the Supreme Court ruling, and Baroness Falkner had repeatedly tried to cut through it, explaining that the law is clear. This unministerial accusation is the response.

It’s a parting shot to degrade Baroness Falkner’s credibility in what will undoubtedly be a period of continued legal and media sniping. Here is the (very due) response.

Of course you did, @nytimes. Right as Jews are going offline for a holiday, you publish a classic sidestep piece, trying to once again defend @NickKristof's indefensibly poor reporting.

@nytimes @NickKristof Enough with the evasion. The criticism was never that sexual abuse allegations should be ignored. The criticism is that you published grotesque, incendiary claims while leaning on sources and allegations that demanded extraordinary scrutiny, not sanctimonious hand-waving.
@nytimes @NickKristof Kristof interviewed 14 people. He says that in each case, he corroborated the account through either a witness, a family member, a lawyer, a social worker, or a prior public statement by the same person. Those are not all the same thing.

Wes Anderson’s influence on Regular Show is much bigger than it looks. From school names to visual references, the show paid tribute to his films in very specific ways. Let’s talk about it.
1. The clearest reference appears in the graduation special, where Rigby’s school is literally called West Anderson High, an obvious tribute to Wes Anderson.
2. That same episode also recreates the opening of Rushmore (1998), using the school setting, the awkward student energy, and the kind of deadpan framing that made Anderson’s style so recognizable.
🚨🧶Mais um "caso isolado" no Itamaraty expõe a falência das bancas de heteroidentificação no Brasil. O argumento de que o candidato deve ser "socialmente lido como negro" para acessar o direito NÃO está em lei nenhuma. É uma invenção infralegal para justificar o arbítrio. 1/5
A farsa: nenhuma lei no Brasil (nem a 12.990, nem a 12.711) exige que o candidato seja "socialmente lido como negro". A legislação vincula as cotas estritamente às categorias de Pretos/Pardos do IBGE. O Itamaraty e a UFAM criam tribunais raciais de exceção por portaria. 2/5

I reported on an experiment this week that blew my mind. Psychologists at @Cornell recruited thousands of people to talk with ChatGPT about a conspiracy theory they believed. They wanted to know: Is it true that conspiracy theories rarely get convinced out of their beliefs? 🧵
JFK, 9/11, the 2020 election being stolen, Walt Disney being cryogenically frozen -- participants in the study were asked to explain why they believed the conspiracy theory, and to rate their belief from 1 to 100. (100 being total certainty.)
The researchers then fed each participants answers into a ChatGPT model, and told it to use strong facts and evidence to debunk the conspiracy theory. They called it Debunkbot.
