What does Google’s Debug program want to do with 64 million mosquitoes?

Over the course of four years, it plans to release them in Florida and California to combat disease-spreading mosquitoes.

The technique works by having sterile males mate with wild females, causing their eggs to fail to hatch, which gradually crashes the local mosquito population.

But are there any risks?

Two parents are heading to prison after locking their 3 kids away for 4 years out of extreme COVID fear.

The German-American couple locked them in their villa in Spain, where they endured squalid conditions—including a room piled with used diapers.

The toll on the children is tragic: difficulty walking, hunched backs, bowel control problems from years spent in diapers, and delayed development.

These parents locked their 3 kids inside—in squalid conditions—for 4 years straight because they were afraid they’d catch COVID.

As you’d imagine, this left the children with significant physical and mental disorders.

Authorities say the kids now struggle to walk, have hunched backs, suffer bladder and bowel problems from years in diapers, have irritated skin, and have delayed development.

IRS issues massive warning to Americans on AI.

The nation’s tax collector launched a pilot program using Palantir AI to determine who gets audited next.

With all the massive fraud in Medicare, Medicaid, EBT… it’s hard to be enthusiastic about paying taxes. And they know it.

The IRS just launched a pilot program using Palantir AI technology to find who needs to be audited.

So as fun as it was having a federal bureaucrat decide if you deserved an audit—now it’ll be an AI machine making that call.

You might think of it as “Tax GPT.”

The FBI smokes out a CCP agent who became an LA-area mayor.

Just earlier this week, the mayor of Arcadia (in Northeast LA) agreed to plead guilty to acting as an agent of China.

And in a WeChat group chat, she went as far as to call a Chinese official her “leader.”

It’s a case that shows the broader techniques that communist China uses to infiltrate American society.

Just as the hantavirus situation was handled on one ship, the CDC says norovirus has sickened over 110 people aboard the Caribbean Princess.

The silver lining is that it isn’t as bad as the hantavirus, which had a mortality rate of 30 to 50%.
