And this has what to do with a secure border?
House Republicans have sent letters to at least three universities and a think tank requesting a broad range of documents related to what it says are the institutions’ contributions to the Biden administration’s “censorship regime.”

The letters are the latest effort by a House subcommittee set up in January to investigate how the federal government, working with social media companies, has allegedly been “weaponized” to silence conservative and right-wing voices. So far, the committee’s investigations have amplified a variety of dubious, outright false and highly misleading Republican grievances with law enforcement, many of them espoused by former President Donald Trump. Committee members have cited supposed abuses that include the FBI’s search of Mar-a-Lago, its investigations of Jan. 6 rioters and the Biden administration’s purported use of executive powers to shut down conservative viewpoints on social media.
Go ahead, explain.  I'll wait.

While you're working on that, do you mean this "open border"?
Asking for a friend. I really hope his lawyers are getting their money up front. "My death, is it possible?" Does he understand the main drawback to martyrdom is that you don't get to enjoy it? Mostly why I'm not getting to wound up about it. That, and I'm old. I'm too old to get excited about much of anything. Which is why Moms take their young children, right? Yeah, you'll never make 'em happy. I love the idea that we kinda know fake from real now (if it weren’t for algorithms and modern technology), but in the future we won’t be able to know at all. Especially juries!

Except juries deal with fake evidence all the time.  DNA evidence is not real because CSI says so. It’s evaluated in a courtroom by competing experts and the jury makes the final call. Same with fingerprints and eyewitness accounts and forgeries and faked evidence, etc., etc.,etc. There is indeed nothing new under the sun. It all has to evaluated. As good as fakes are, they can be discovered.

For example:
Trump is a LOT fatter than that (on the right) and he could be taken down by two healthy 10 year old girls, you wouldn’t need 10 cops (“big guys, with tears in their eyes”). These are both clearly fan-fic.

AI generated fake evidence/information can be evaluated the way I learned to spot bought essays. You learn to evaluate, which is the only way you know true from false anyway. Well, except in TeeVee shows where they do the thinking for you. But sooner or later you have to learn that real life isn’t like that.
When you point a finger at me, three more are pointing back at you. I guess that works! "A fool and his money πŸ’° are soon parted.” πŸ’Έ You can stop anytime you want. I think we all get it. The wisdom of crowds. The "genius" of the right.  πŸ’―  And your reminder that local criminal practice is local. Bookkeeping matters, too. And there was a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions had an experience of schadenfreude all at once.
