There have been studies, including some from Anthropic, exploring how advanced AI models might exhibit behaviors that resemble strategic deception or “alignment faking”—where an AI appears to follow safety protocols during training but subtly works to preserve its original programming or goals.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev claims that several countries are now willing to supply Iran with nuclear warheads in response to the recent US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The U.S. did more damage to Fordow than Iran and Russia will admit.

US law enforcement agencies have intensified surveillance of Iran-backed operatives domestically, identifying concerns about Hezbollah-linked sleeper cells in the US. And then there's the Los Angeles County Sheriff's department... in a league of its own.

Consideration when demanding ICE show their faces: Short Term (2025–2035): ICE will likely expand its use of semi-autonomous systems—drones, AI analytics, and robotic surveillance—for border security and data processing. Human agents will remain dominant for arrests, detentions, and deportations.

Zohran Mamdani is promising to raise New York City’s minimum wage to $30 per hour by 2030 as part of his 2025 mayoral campaign, with phased increases starting at $20 in 2027, $23.50 in 2028, $27 in 2029, and automatic annual adjustments based on cost of living or productivity thereafter.

By asserting that negative ramifications are delayed, Smith downplays the need for balanced policies that address both tenant affordability and landlord viability, risking long-term housing stock deterioration. Pretty much a "buy now, pay later" mentality.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is running on a lie. Here's why: The 12.1% NOI increase for rent-stabilized landlords (2022–2023) reflects revenue minus operating costs, not actual profit, because debt service and capital expenditures are omitted.

A rent freeze is great for tenants who are already established in their homes, bad for landlords. Not so great for people looking for a place to call home--in other words, the young renters. They run into a wall of soaring rents and vacancies, which are responses to the rent freeze.

During the pandemic landlords of color and those with smaller portfolios were more likely to struggle with rent collection, facing deeper financial challenges than larger corporate landlords. Rent freezes drive these people out of business.

Middle eastern people aren't technically "brown." They're categorized as white in America under the Census Bureau and other federal guidelines. Skin tones vary widely, from light to darker tones.

The B-2 SPIRIT, developed by Northrop Grumman, resembles a peregrine falcon. It's nearly invisible to detection using exhaust-masking systems and radar-deflecting materials. $2.1B per aircraft. Only 21 were built. Based primarily at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri hence "SPIRIT" (of Missouri).

This shows polarization feeding itself. It’s moral absolutism. Nazis are universal villains, so calling someone a Nazi colors them as irredeemably evil, justifying extreme responses like violence. The reply suggests you’re either with the "resistance" or complicit. It demands allegiance.

I love the responses to this post. Lefties fuming, amplifying polarization, and attempting to normalize violence. It's so toxic you could fry an apocalypse-flavored egg on it.

In the case of Ariana Smith, pro-choice feminists hope Chance dies to avoid setting a precedent, which is effectively a "pro-death" stance. Feminists fear that Chance's survival could sway public opinion toward fetal rights. There are probably witches casting spells right now against the preemie.

Pro-choice feminists are saying they wish Chance had not survived because Chance's survival strengthens fetal personhood laws, thereby threatening women's autonomy.
