Fascinating

I've had access to Fable for a bit. A genuine jump in capability, I could feed it a 15 page design document for a project and it would work for 9+ hours and deliver terrific results.

But working with it is weird & weirder is coming

Lots of examples: https://t.co/HptkYunBzr

This is insane. Would break science

That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President.

Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.

US used to have the systems in place to catch this within 48 hours; now it spread for weeks undetected.

[Gregg Nunziata @greggnunziata]

We should never get used to this being the official voice of our government.

I worked a bit with Ted, and not a single one of the more than 3400 billionaires today can hold a candle to him.

Not sure who all would make a list of my favorite people ever, but I know Ken Burns would be near the top of it.

Imagine if Biden or Obama had posted something like this

[Nicholas Nehamas @NickNehamas]

Exclusive: The Trump administration has fired two immigration judges who blocked the deportations of Rumeysa Ozturk and Mohsen Mahdawi, two int'l students who expressed pro-Palestinian views. Four other judges were fired on Friday too.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted.

To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

A U.S. Army staff sergeant and his wife arrived at his base in Louisiana last week, expecting to begin their life together as newlyweds. ICE has arrested and caged her instead. She was brought to the USA as a toddler. These people should be citizens.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.

This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

[Tom Malinowski @Malinowski]

Most Americans still haven't realized how the Trump administration has defunded every aspect of criminal law enforcement -- anti-terrorism, drugs, fraud, organized crime, human trafficking, etc. -- to go after immigrants with no criminal records.

[Jon Ralston @RalstonReports]

Nothing to see here, just the president of the United States, underwater and with majorities in jeopardy, trying to steal the November elections for the GOP.

It's not even subtle.

It is incumbent on every GOP elected official to disavow this in the strongest possible terms.

W Post does an analysis of drivers from MD and VA caught on speed cameras in DC.

A fun corruption hack is to have your supporters sue the govt for something done under Biden, then immediately give them a huge settlement since you control the Justice Department.

Perfectly 'legal' and can be done an unlimited amount of times. Money printer for loyal goons.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

This story is HORRIFIC. This DACA recipient was brought here by his parents in 1999 when he was 8 years old. He is a laboratory scientist who's had DACA since 2012.

Now he's languishing in an ICE detention center because the Trump admin failed to process his renewal in time!

[Jane Mayer @JaneMayerNYer]

So many layers of corruption…

[Natasha Korecki @natashakorecki]

Last week, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen FBI agents and staff as retribution for a Trump probe.

The group Patel targeted? An elite counterespionage unit that specializes in Iran.
@CarolLeonnig builds off of New York Sun reporting.

One family is about to control CBS, CNN, HBO, and TikTok. They’ll buy WBD with $24 billion in money from the Saudis, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. To win over Trump, they canceled Colbert, blocked a CECOT investigation, and blocked Talarico. Much more will follow. Block this rotten deal.
