To everyone carrying the weight of this week: You may not have told anyone how heavy it felt. You might’ve smiled through it, said "I’m fine" when you weren’t and kept showing up when you just wanted to stop. That takes a kind of strength most people don’t recognize. That matters. You matter.

The top economics journal in the world nearly published an article that, to all appearances, is 100% bullshit. It claimed that AI accelerates scientific discovery. An MIT PhD student appears to have used generative AI to fabricate the whole thing, data and all.

I usually don't share fundraisers but a few of my friends on Twitter who report on the cases of Andrew and Tristan Tate are being sued by them for defamation. This is a blatant act to try and suppress reporters from telling the truth about the Tate Brothers and their case standings... 🧵

The Republican tax plan is Robin Hood in reverse. It would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich through a single law in our entire history. Stop this bill.

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for nine days. What the HELL? 1/

I went looking through my archive to references (ca. 1970-2000) in the US press to "white genocide" in Africa. With only one exception, every single one I could find appeared in neo-Nazi publications, like this one from December 1975. CB Baker was a protege of GL Rockwell and Willis Carto.

True story: When I was a contractor at a NASA facility I kept M&Ms on my desk. A civil servant I worked with ate a few one day. The next day I came in to find a pound bag on my desk. He wanted to "reimburse" me because he didn't want the few he ate to be seen as a gift. Anyway

There is a lot in Trump's proclamation on "Establishing Project Homecoming" that is disgusting and seems illegal, but the admin saying they can take people's savings, home, and car if they fail to self deport sure seems like a Nazi thing to do. www.smithsonianmag.com/history/1938...

I love that the Pulitzer site is straight up like "Yeah, she won because she's so fearless that she quit her job over censorship," and WaPo is still like "Look! We won!" and just acting oblivious to how this makes them look.

Few lawyers are willing to speak publicly about President Trump’s actions against law firms. Fear is rippling through Washington. But, despite being a target, Marc Elias is still talking. Scott Pelley sits down with him tonight on 60 Minutes.
