It is wild how few know Epstein helped Russian UN Ambassador Churkin figure out Trump.

He even tried using Norway's former PM Jagland to get to Lavrov.

This suggests Trump might be compromised by Russia, explaining why he avoids putting any pressure on them

If Hungary Can Do It Viktor Orbán offered a model for antidemocratic rule, one admired by Donald Trump and other world leaders. What does his stunning loss after 16 years in power mean?

The staff writer Anne Applebaum explains why Viktor Orbán’s loss in Hungary is a turning point for world politics; the Hungarian journalist Veronika Munk shares her view from the streets of Budapest.

Listen to “Radio Atlantic”:

I hear he’ll be blind-taste-testing glutten-free artisanal hot chocolate drinks and juggling fisher-price children’s chainsaws. #MustSeeTV

MAGA: Put the bible and 10 commandments in schools!!!

I completely agree with Marjorie Taylor Greene is a sentence I never thought I would ever write.

Being Human in the Age of AI being human is big, bigger than we usually think it is

No life & limb peril w/jobs they point most AIs to. Failure modes are not immediately catastrophic if an image gen or chat bot makes a mistake.

That’s why they focus on taking away creative jobs first: AIs being bad at them doesn’t seem directly dire.

The NASA budget is 0.15% of the overall federal budget. Not even 1%.

Well played.

European jets shooting down drones over the Middle East while ignoring the skies over Ukraine is pathetic.

We are willing to actively defend airspace on another continent, but we refuse to do the exact same thing to protect our own neighbors in Europe

Spot on.

And all the idiots that confirmed them...

You talkin' to me?
