Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Pop quiz: how would you characterize someone who posts AI videos and then, when the comments that it’s AI start to pile up, leaves the video but turns off comments?

TO ALL FEDERAL WORKERS: if you were illegally fired today and have information of wrongdoing or abuse of power by the Trump Administration, our whistleblower tip line is open.

We want to hear from you. All whistleblowers are federally protected.

Report Potential Wrongdoing Under the Trump Administration

Whistleblowers play a vital role in helping Congress conduct our constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities. If you have knowledge of corporate or government corruption and abuses of power; insights into the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his associates; or information regarding potential wrongdoing or waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars, your disclosure can make a difference.

This was a heroic effort of live blogging a key hearing.

It's a saga, and Roger catches more nuance and detail in a kind of shorthand that gets lost in most summarizations.

At 11am I will try to live-blog, for @lawfaremedia.org , the hearing in Abrego Garcia’s civil (habeas corpus) case in federal court in Greenbelt MD. Abrego is seeking release from detention under a SCOTUS precedent called Zadvydas v Davis (2001). ...

Yes, it's correct. I would expect such terms to be defined within the agreement itself -- there's no, like, definitive source for them outside of the document they appear in

So, against that background: I became aware of these folks via an announcement from ANOTHER AI startup called Paid that they had "partnered" with Git.Law to produce an "Agentic MSA," or "a Master Services Agreement tailored for AI Agents."

I think such an opt-out signal would fall under the provisions of 1798.120, which says it "shall be prohibited" to sell anyone's info if they've opted out. leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_....

It literally was, at least in part! The AI draft was reviewed by human lawyers, per Nick Holzherr on LinkedIn

It can’t analyze those things, though. The best it can do is offer words in statistically similar patterns to those found in other people’s analyses.

Kathryn Tewson @kathryntewson.bsky.social · 2d

I know what the word means. That’s why I asked you how *you* are using it, because in my experience it takes longer to vet the result of an AI search than it does to just do the research myself.
