No one *licensed* anyone to make CSAM of their kids, and the tech company that provides both the production technology and the distribution system should be prosecuted out of existence.
Co-signing this. Grok is out there making CSAM on request from pictures posted to the internet.
And if you posted pictures of your kids to Twitter, you LICENSED Grok to do that. Take those pics down NOW

Parents, if you didn't have a problem until now of not posting pics of your kids on public social media, now might be a good time to start (and maybe scrub what's there already).

If Hilton is going to punish franchisees for doing the right thing, then Hilton deserves a boycott. We’ve seen what collective action can do, Tesla’s declining sales are proof. The same pressure can work here too.

Trump has not ruled out using force to take Greenland, though he says he plans to pursue an offer to buy it instead. In response, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark issued a joint statement reaffirming Greenland’s status and sovereignty.

Rather than making it more affordable for families, Trump is stripping away child care from those just trying to go to work.
Thousands depend on these programs, and now their livelihoods are at risk.

We need to end lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court.
For a court that shapes our rights for generations, concentrating power indefinitely undermines public trust.
I’m backing legislation for 18-year term limits and regular appointments to restore balance and accountability.

While Trump kept the American people in the dark on his plans for Venezuela, Big Oil got a heads up “before and after” the attack. The public deserves to know if they’re footing the bill while oil companies reap profits. Chevron, ExxonMobil, and ConocoPhillips must answer.

Trump then pardoned the attackers.

Makes perfect sense. Or not.
The Trump administration sent out letters tonight to 5 blue states, freezing about $10 billion in funding for child care and social services programs pending a "thorough review," citing concerns over "systemic fraud."
5 Democratic-run states are told that their child care funds have been frozen
The suspension of the funds could hurt low-income families in those states, depending on how long it lasts, advocates say.
