Oh, yes, Texas has a paper trail a mile long arguing that states have the right to fully deploy its state agents to defend its borders and to use lethal force against any invasion. That would inherently include Illinois using lethal force to repel an invasion by the Texas National Guard.

Seems Trump might be trying an end-run in which Texas mobilizes its National Guard. That would be Texas invading Illinois, which as you can imagine is unconstitutional. One wonders about potential remedies, such as IL seizing assets of TX corporations like X, xAI, and SpaceX. Just a thought. 🤔

It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections. Support pro-democracy independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

The opportunity when he dies is to actually win power from their division and make major MAJOR reforms. "Only thing in the middle of the road is roadkill and yellow lines."

I want these people left with only three options: 1. Burning their gear and making annoying public apologies about how wrong they were. 2. Keeping their racism and idiot conspiracy theories to themselves forever because people keep shaming them. 3. Lying and pretending they never supported him.

It is *literally impossible* to have reliable guardrails on LLMs. More research is coming out on this. But,remember: ll LLM CEOs have admitted they don't understand how their product works. Prob not good look in court. www.activefence.com/blog/llm-gua...

everyone who is treating unblur like science really needs to look at "white unblurred obama" again

It's often been debated if Trump could pull off a fascist takeover of the United States, because he's clearly not very smart. I talked to @anneapplebaum.bsky.social about that for my newsletter
