The president cannot preempt state AI regulations through an executive order. The Constitution doesn’t give him this power, and Congress hasn’t delegated it. bit.ly/3Y0drDI

How the Supreme Court Rejected Denaturalization as a Political Weapon Long Ago
New threats to strip opponents of citizenship recall a dark history.
