Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: As a military officer, I was repeatedly trained on the law concerning illegal orders. Now, veterans citing this law have been targeted by the president with threats of prosecution and death - because they oppose him politically. If the government acts against them, it will further display President Trump's thirst for the one thing our Republic cannot abide: tyranny.

I love it when little garbage cats develop the luxury of food snobbery. Yes he was tiny wet ball of fleas found in a ditch but now he's a velvet prince who wants the premium, organic, grain-free chicken in gravy, NOT the premium, organic, grain-free chicken au jus how dare you offer that garbage.

Hey Ed
Anna Bower & @AnnaBower X.com Hey @EdMartinDOJ @EagleEdMartin, You shared a highly dubious report accusing Shauni Kerkhoff of being the J6 pipebomber. Will you now share this credible report that she's factually innocent and that the FBI ruled her out as a suspect?

This should be a major scandal. The Blaze falsely reported that a former U.S. Capitol Police officer was the Jan. 6th pipe bomber. But it wasn’t just another miss by conservative media promoting conspiracies.

Someone in US intel - at ODNI - was promoting it:

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

The majority of Americans want sensible guardrails on AI.
White text describing The AI Fraud Deterrence Act: “Criminalizes the impersonation of federal officials with AI deepfakes and increases the maximum fine from $250,000 to $1,000,000. Defines AI-mediated deception of both mail fraud and wire fraud, opening up the explicit possibility of charging individuals who use AI to conduct either type of fraud – both punished by up to $1 million in fines and up to 20 and 30 years in jail Increases maximum fines for mail and wire fraud that affects disaster aid or financial institutions from $1 to $2 million, regardless of if it was committed with AI. Establishes $2 million maximum penalty for bank fraud committed with AI. Allows for AI in satire, parody, or expression under the First Amendment, provided it includes clear disclosure that it is not authentic”

Pleased to introduce the AI Fraud Deterrence Act today with Rep. Dunn which would expand penalties for AI scams and deepfakes, including impersonations of federal officials.

Our bipartisan goal is simple: Deter people from using AI to commit fraud.
At the top, a red “exclusive” box is above white text from an NBC headline that reads, “Proposed AI fraud bill seeks to criminalize deepfakes of federal officials,” overlayed a darkened picture of the Capitol. At the bottom is a photo of Rep. Ted Lieu outlined in red with a tweet from Jared Polo that reads, “Exclusive: New proposed AI fraud bill will seek to criminalize deepfakes of federal officials (outside of satire, etc.) The bill, from @RepTedLieu (D-Ca.) and @DrNealDunnFL2 (R-Fl.), would also update definitions and penalties for fraud to account for the rise of AI” and a screenshot from the top of Rep. Lieu's bill.
