The Epstein Tapes. The stock market and the AI apocalypse. Leave the hockey heroes alone. Is Trump running out of ideas? And more in today's Front Page.
"A whistleblower said that an FBI response team was delayed in reaching the site of a mass shooting at Brown University in December because of director Kash Patel’s government jet use, MS NOW reported."
I look forward to more reporting from MSNOW!
You should add Olberman, Reid and other whack-jobs from the glory days of MSNBC to add a little balance to the FP platform...
America at 250: Rarely has there been true bipartisanship. Adams & Jefferson hated each other, at least when confronted with political issues. Slavery, Jim Crow, geographical expansion, women’s rights movements, sweat shops & child labor, Robber Barons, Wars, liberal vs conservative, totalitarianism vs democracy, prohibition, JewHatred, demagoguery, even medical & scientific advancements have all created profound schisms. Is the contemporary, societal antagonism truly unique? In my lifetime only the period from Dec.7, 1941 until August 1945 was genuine bipartisanship on display.
JewHatred: It’s as American as apple pie. By the way so is racism. They are always just below the surface in the primordial goo. They are an unfortunate parcel of the American psyche. It won’t change & impossible to eradicate. Education might ameliorate some of it but it’s too mainstream. It is most symbolic of a very sick society that portends a dangerous future.
Epstein & guilt by association: In the early two thousands Trump saw Epstein in his true form & rejected him totally. Those who chose to continue to befriend Epstein after he was convicted of pedophila should be cancelled. Release Maxwell from prison for it’s the only way we’ll learn the truth. From Billary’s testimony we’ll learn nothing. It’s nothing less than trash emitting trash.
Pride in America & America’s hockey team: It’s refreshing, exciting,, invigorating to celebrate the accomplishments of exceptional young American’s taking pride in representing America. It certainly beats nation bashing. But then again they’re white male systemic racists. Not long ago the American hockey team was vociferously booed in Canada, as if the hockey team made policy. Let’s relish the Canadians Boohooing!
Re: AI models deploying nuclear Armageddon - Elana Gomel's new weird horror novel, Cryptids, reads like a metaphor for the bad scenario of what an AI takeover of the world could look like. Absent a theory of mind, when every hand on the switches is a philosophical zombie, the world reverts to pure animal hunger with no higher goal than mastering one's place in the food chain.
Doesn't matter if it's an apex predator species or a machine "intelligence" - without the guard rails that have developed over millennia of human storytelling and social control (often in stodgy forms like religion or culture), there's nothing left but becoming biomass to feed the system.
Never did a surgical rotation or residency. Though she does have a brother who works for RFK jr. so I guess that’s enough to influence healthcare decisions for our country. Let’s add one more fraudster to the bunch.
My big question is the coffee bucket- the instapic shows an iced latte and the bucket is plastic. Was the hot coffee in something that doesn't burn you as you embrace it in order to drink it? I would think if it came with handles it would need one on each side to balance it properly, you know like one of those toddler cups.
"As it stands, the only person in the room who was harmed by Davidson's utterance - as versus merely made uncomfortable - Davidson himself. This would arguably be true even if the utterance had been intentional. It’s simply impossible to imagine two accomplished, professional, extremely famous actors on the BAFTAs stage being genuinely wounded by any shout, no matter how vulgar, from a member of the peanut gallery." - Kat Rosenfield
TRANSLATION:
"Racial slurs are not slurs, they are 'utterances.' Slurs really just make people uncomfortable and that's about it. Even if Davidson had done it intentionally, he still would have been the real victim here because people might have unfairly judged him and called him a racist, which is way worse.
Now, I, white lady Kat Rosenfield, who has never met Michael B. Jordan or Delroy Lindo and certainly do not know them in any capacity whatsoever, can confirm that they were in NO WAY troubled at all by having someone scream "N-----!" at them while they were onstage to present an award in front of a large audience during a major televised international awards show.
Although I have no experience with being a black person or dealing with such a situation, I am firmly conviced this is the case. If you think otherwise, you're a woke leftist."
This might be the absolute best, most ethos-defining passage The Free Press has ever published! :)
SpaceX’s darkening Starlink satellite internet service for the Russian military caused an operational breakdown of forces occupying Ukraine troops who recaptured over 70 square miles in the days after the shutdown.
The prediction market platform Kalshi fined and reported an employee of top YouTube creator MrBeast to federal regulators for insider trading. Artem Kaptur, an editor for MrBeast, traded around $4,000 on markets related to the content creator and had “near-perfect” success, according to Kalshi.
Federal regulators Investigating $4k in trades (Hope this is a typo). Have they heard of Nancy Pelosi.?
A researcher found that the most common AI models decided to deploy nuclear weapons 95 percent of the time in war game scenarios. Kenneth Payne, a professor of strategy at King’s College London, pitted Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini against each other, and said they showed “little sense of horror” at the prospect of nuclear war.
Everyone knows the answer is teach AI to play tic-tac-toe.

“A whistleblower said…” not MSNOW.
Did Gates break any laws? Why is he apologizing to staff? He had sex with other consenting adults.
It is because we expect a level of moral integrity and decency from our leaders. I hope this starts to extend to our political leaders again.
Cheating on one's spouse is of interest only to the betrothed betrayed.
I would wager that their ethical clauses in everyone’s employment contract including Gates. On the morality it our leaders point, agree to disagree.

So.....STILL no update from The Free Press about the ICE agents attacked with snow shovel?
Jesse Jackson was the greatest shakedown artist of his time.

Casey Means is not a doctor....she thinks terminal illnesses are "spiritual crises" and is against all vaccines....
Perfect candidate.
Never did a surgical rotation or residency. Though she does have a brother who works for RFK jr. so I guess that’s enough to influence healthcare decisions for our country. Let’s add one more fraudster to the bunch.
Yes, Casey Means is a doctor. Stanford University School of Medicine (2014).
Don't feed the troll.
Nope. Dropped out of her residency. Inactive medical license. Go try your gaslighting somewhere else.

About damn time. What took so long?
Agreed, time for Musk to make a decision on what side he is on and who he supports.
“FUCK ICE”
Back from three weeks in Oregon.
If I had a dollar for every “FUCK ICE” sign in Eugene…
I wouldn’t be commenting on TFP…
I’d own it.
And Eugene is MAGA country when compared with Portland.
You are back! Can we trade Eugene and Portland for Alberta. And while F is in vogue : FU TO GU GU and the media that goes GA GA over her .
Nearly whole place are bitches, Seattle to Cabo…
Oregon is the most beautiful state I have ever visited.
The coast is pretty balanced.
The high desert is conservative.
The center corridor is the angriest place I have ever spent any appreicable amount of time in.
I would love to live in Oregon. I almost bought a house there years ago.... but not now. I may try a beach trip later this year.
Signs make angry, too.
Signs make you angry?
😉
Yeah, especially ones that say, " Black People Are Not Apes.”
Sorry but sacracsm requires wit.
You lose.
A requirement I fufill regularly.
Better luck next time.
