After the Southern Poverty Law Center gets the DOJ’s sham fraud indictment tossed out of court, they should sue every one of these liars for defamation. As we’ve already discussed here, Republicans hate them because they expose the white supremacists and neo-Nazis that make up so much of their base, so now they’re trying to destroy them by pretending they’re sponsoring hatred rather than going undercover to expose it.

Rep. Nancy Mace made an appearance on Fox’s Saturday in America with Kayleigh McEnany this weekend and was asked by guest host Jonathan Hunt what she thought of the accusations against the SPLC, and Mace spewed lots of lies and venom and demanded that the people running the organization be tossed in prison.

U.S. intelligence shows that Iran’s supreme leader is effectively holed up in an undisclosed location with little access to the outside world and is only reached by a labyrinth of couriers, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter.

The Iranian officials authorized to work with the Trump administration have been having a difficult time communicating inside of their own government system — and it’s a central reason why the details of a potential deal with Iran and past agreements have been slow to emerge,

When the U.S. sends proposed details, the difficulty in reaching the supreme leader means there can be a long delay before the U.S. receives a response, two of the officials said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday he and US President Donald Trump had agreed that any final deal with Iran must fully end the Islamic republic’s “nuclear threat”.

Netanyahu was referring to a conversation between the two leaders on Saturday night, which Trump had earlier said “went very well”.

“President Trump and I agreed that any final agreement with Iran must eliminate the nuclear threat entirely. This means dismantling Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities and removing enriched nuclear material from its territory,” Netanyahu said in a statement.

There is a category of production incident that engineering teams are not tracking yet — because it doesn’t fit any existing postmortem template.

The agent initiated an action. The action was technically correct given the agent’s context. The context was incomplete. The infrastructure cascaded. And, by the time the incident review happened, three teams were arguing about whether it was an agent failure or an infrastructure failure,  because the frameworks for thinking about these two things have never been connected.

The scale of this exposure is no longer theoretical. Seventy-nine percent of organizations now have some form of AI agent in production, with 96% planning expansion. Gartner predicts 33% of enterprise software will include agentic AI by 2028, but separately warns that 40% of those projects will be canceled due to poor risk controls.

What neither statistic captures is the failure mode happening between those two numbers: Agents that are running, that are not canceled, and that are quietly generating infrastructure events no one has categorized as risk.

Chinese AI startup DeepSeek just made one of the boldest pricing moves in the artificial intelligence race so far. The company announced it is permanently slashing the cost of its flagship V4-Pro AI model by 75%, bringing prices down to just a fraction of what developers were paying only weeks ago. AI companies worldwide have been facing two major problems: high infrastructure costs and limited access to high-end AI chips. So when a company suddenly cuts prices this aggressively — and permanently — it usually signals something important is changing behind the scenes.

DeepSeek says usage costs for V4-Pro now range from 0.025 to 6 yuan per million tokens, depending on workload type, down sharply from the previous pricing range of 0.1 to 24 yuan per million tokens. For developers building AI apps, agents, and services, that kind of drop could significantly lower operating costs.

A House subcommittee held a hearing on left-wing calls to pack the U.S. Supreme Court with liberal activists on Thursday. And unsurprisingly, not a single House Democrat in attendance condemned such a radical proposal.

Hosted by the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, Artificial Intelligence, and the Internet, lawmakers heard testimony from several legal specialists about Democrats’ ongoing efforts to undermine SCOTUS. As indicated by its title (“Court Packing: A Threat to the Supreme Court’s Legitimacy”), the hearing was supposed to examine how the left is using such efforts to push for stacking the court with left-wing activists who will rule on issues in their favor.

While House Republicans and their witnesses kept to the topic and underscored how packing the Supreme Court would undermine the rule of law and the legitimacy of the institution, the subcommittee’s Democrats couldn’t help themselves. Not only did every single leftist representative in attendance decline to disavow packing SCOTUS, these members went out of their w

The stories of troubling past comments and behavior keep surfacing in the campaign of US Senate candidate Graham Platner, a Democrat from Maine.

After an initial controversy surrounding a tattoo that appeared to depict Nazi symbolism, he attracted backlash for unearthed explicit Reddit posts that many described as disturbing.

Now, more of his previous online musings are coming to light, and these are particularly objectionable, as Breitbart reported:

“This video never gets old,” Platner wrote in a June 2019 Reddit post, referring to a viral video featuring Pfc. Ted Daniels in a 2012 firefight with the Taliban, which resulted in the soldier being shot four times and earning a Purple Heart for his injuries.

“Dumb motherfucker didn’t deserve to live,” the Democrat Senate hopeful — whose archived Reddit rants can be found on the Maine Monitor’s database — said in his since-deleted post.

Platner went on to write, “At least his stupidity and fat ass wheezing are available for all future infantrymen to witness and hold in contempt.”

“Poor marksmanship on the Taliban’s part is the only reason this mouthbreather made it home, he managed to make every possible shit decision possible when it comes to small unit combat,” Platner added.

The unearthed posts come from a deleted, but archived, Reddit account known as “P-Hustle,” which Platner previously acknowledged was his.

The owner of the Future Leaders Early Learning Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was charged with defrauding Minnesota’s Child Care Assistance Program on Wednesday. Fahima Egeh Mahamud is accused of filing bogus claims to receive $4.6 million in government grants to serve thousands of meals to low-income children, but the meals allegedly were never served.

Mahamud’s daycare center was one of the places featured in Nick Shirley’s viral video earlier this year, highlighting rampant fraud in Minnesota daycares. According to reports, Mahamud registered Future Leaders Early Learning Center in a federal child nutrition program through the Minnesota nonprofit organization Feeding Our Future. As part of the scheme, she allegedly claimed that her daycare center collected required co-payments from impoverished families to receive the federal government subsidies to provide meals to children, none of which actually happened, according to prosecutors.

“One of the requirements of participation, by both child care providers and recipients, was the collection and payment of co-payments,” read official court documents. “The co-payment was paid to the family’s child care provider biweekly. The co-payment amount was based on family and annual income after allowable de

In fact…the officials remained pretty vague concerning details about the suspects.

Law enforcement discovered a manifesto and over 30 guns while executing three search warrants:

Law enforcement officials also served search warrants on the suspects’ electronic devices during the investigation. Investigators said they recovered a manifesto, as well as writings outlining religious and racial beliefs “of how the world they envision should look,” according to FBI Special Agent in Charge Mark Remily.

“These subjects did not discriminate in who they hated, and let me be very clear to anyone who thinks they can end the world through violence: They’re sorely mistaken,” Remily said. “The FBI, our law enforcement partners and our community are much stronger than you think.”

Mark Remily of the FBI said during a news conference that authorities have uncovered writings by the suspects. Authorities declined to specify what ideologies or views were expressed by the shooters, only that they met online and shared a “broad hatred” toward different religions and races.

On May 5 and 6, the Trump Department of Justice (DOJ) filed two related Second Amendment lawsuits in Colorado: one challenging Denver’s ban on so-called “assault weapons,” including AR-15-style semiautomatic rifles, and another challenging Colorado’s statewide ban on magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds. In both cases, DOJ argues that state and local officials are criminalizing arms commonly owned by law-abiding Americans in violation of the Second Amendment and Supreme Court precedent.

Colorado law generally prohibits selling, transferring, or possessing a “large-capacity magazine,” defined as a magazine capable of accepting more than 15 rounds, with an exception for magazines owned before July 1, 2013, and continuously possessed since then. Denver’s ordinance separately bans possession of so-called “assault weapons,” including many AR-15-style semiautomatic rifles.

The DOJ argues that the laws rely on deceptive language and fearmongering to try to justify an end-run around the Constitution. “The Magazine Ban uses politically charged rhetoric to describe the arms it bans,” the complaint states. “The Magazine Ban’s characterization of these magazines as ‘large capacity’ is a misnomer, because magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds are, in fact, standard capacity magazines for many popular firearms, including the AR-15 rifle, the most popular rifle in America.”

A gunman opened fire near the White House on Saturday evening, with US Secret Service agents killing the assailant in a shootout during which a bystander was also struck, authorities said.

US President Donald Trump was in the White House at the time – on a day when he was working to negotiate a deal with Iran – but was not impacted by the incident, Secret Service communications chief Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement.

The confrontation took place just after 18:00 (22:00 GMT) when a man near the White House security perimeter “pulled a weapon from his bag and began firing”.

“Secret Service Police returned fire, striking the suspect, who was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced deceased. During the shooting, one bystander was also struck by gunfire,” Guglielmi said, without giving details on the bystander’s condition.
