Russia’s🇷🇺 Dmitry Medvedev:
‘Following the assassination of the Supreme Leader of Iran, there is no doubt that Iran will continue pursuing nuclear testing and will eventually acquire nuclear weapons.’
U.S. soldiers were sent to die in the Middle East for Israel’s wars.
Meanwhile, the families of the people who pushed those wars are enjoying the World Cup from luxury seats.
The ruling class gets the view.
Ordinary families get the coffins.
A college student just killed the biggest advantage politicians have ever had. The gap between the lie and the fact-check.
He built a Chrome extension called InTruth. It listens to any live speech, debate, or interview.
Transcribes every word. And checks every claim against real sources in real time. Before the speaker even finishes the sentence.
It works on debates. Press conferences. Town halls. Interviews. Anything with someone talking on video. The fact-check shows up on your screen while they're still talking.
Until now, fact-checking happened hours or days later. By then the clip has been shared, the headline has been written, and the damage is done. Nobody reads the correction.
InTruth closes that gap to seconds. The claim and the fact-check exist in the same moment.
A college student, a Chrome extension, and an AI model just did what entire newsrooms couldn't figure out for decades.
On this day, Saudi Arabia dropped an internationally banned American bomb on Mount Nuqum, a populated area, killing many innocent people in the Yemeni capital, Sana'a.
We will not forget, and we will not forgive.
Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’
It’s our duty to know.
La raison principale pour laquelle Lu Ban est vénéré comme le patriarche du génie civil et des industries mécaniques réside dans l'amélioration systématique qu'il a apportée à de nombreux outils de travail du bois. L'équerre, le compas traditionnel en bois et le cordeau à encre, que nous connaissons bien, sont devenus populaires grâce à son influence. Bien qu'aucun document historique ne confirme que la technique de traçage utilisant trois clous, une corde et une règle ait été inventée par Lu Ban seul, cette ingéniosité témoigne assurément du savoir-faire des artisans de l'Antiquité, dont il était un représentant.
Robert Pape said the Iran war is the most difficult conflict the United States has faced since Germany in World War II. He said Iran is more difficult than Vietnam, Iraq, or Afghanistan. He estimated the war is costing $1 to $2 billion per day. He noted that about two weeks into the war, the Trump administration went to Congress to request an extra $200 billion to cover the next six months. That is roughly $1.1 billion per day. Pape said the consequences of this war will be with the United States for a long time. There is no easy exit.
