Biden push for every agency to hire more females

I am sure she wasn’t vetted properly.

No coincidence she was on Kamala detail.

The results have been predictable.

I’m surprised she wasn’t immediately re-assigned to Trump’s SS detail. Recently, several demoncrats announced their scheme to deny Trump his protection entirely. Goes a bit beyond the concept of “the loyal opposition”, no? Had any Republican (or anyone else) suggested such any similar action against a dem, it would have been treated as an assassination attempt or invitation. I have no doubt they wish for it. It’s rather shocking that RFK Jr., who is on the ballot in numerous states, has repeatedly been denied SS protection. No message there, given family history. This strongly suggests deep dem/state assessment of which candidate will be hurt by votes for RFK Jr., no?

Ex-athletic director accused of framing principal with AI arrested at airport with gun

Baltimore County Police arrested Pikesville High School’s former athletic director (Dazhon Darien, 31) Thursday morning and charged him with crimes related to the alleged use of artificial intelligence to impersonate Principal Eric Eiswert, leading the public to believe Eiswert made racist and antisemitic comments behind closed doors.

Police wrote in charging documents that Darien had accessed the school’s network on multiple occasions in December and January searching for OpenAI tools, and used “Large Language Models” that practice “deep learning, which involves pulling in vast amounts of data from various sources on the internet, can recognize text inputted by the user, and produce conversational results.” They also connected Darien to an email account that had distributed the recording.

Why no actual (not deep fake) photos of those involved? Don’t fit the narrative?

Democrats have tipped their hand regarding RFK. The Kennedy family publicly endorsing Biden and shunning a relative is not surprising. Kennedy blood has been diluted by Kremlinology.

Not sure Soros is funding Hamas. The SJP at Columbia awoke from an almost a half year period of inactivity with this post:

The Arabic text reads: "Revolution until victory” and “we are back” with the map of Israel in the background. This happened before the Hamas attack.

Experience suggests a Board with 20+ members is useful only for one thing – a rubber stamp for the handful of string-pullers behind the scene who will write the policies that Board “formulates”.

Since most of the Board members have business with/support from FedGov (or are suitable genders & ethnicities), it may be that they felt they could not reject FedGov’s demand to lend their names to the effort. Perhaps Musk & Zuck were the ones with sufficient testicular fortitude to turn down the request? – they have other things to do.

Not sure where you read “Soros is funding Hamas” in the NY Post article?

My reasoning is that the SJP (the coordinator of protests) is closer in the spirit to Hamas than to Soros’ Open Society.

Ironically, the Soros Open Society is pluri-tribal and in contradition to the principles of Popper’s open society that Soros claims inspired him:

Popper argued that the ideas of individuality, criticism, and humanitarianism cannot be suppressed once people have become aware of them, and therefore that it is impossible to return to the closed society, but at the same time recognized the continuing emotional pull of what he called “the lost group spirit of tribalism”, as manifested for example in the totalitarianisms of the 20th century.
