Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."

I just received a contract on Docusign for review and signing, and it offered to give me an AI-generated summary that I could read instead to save time.
That's AN AI-GENERATED SUMMARY ***OF A CONTRACT***, in case you need to let that sink in.

Someone should write a book about how to manage like the anti-Elon, explaining why all of his management ideas are very, very stupid.
News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."
One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."
