California Sued Over New “Deepfake” Law
Public officials and public figures are subject to the higher standard of defamation (New York Times v. Sullivan.) However, it is not clear that it will suffice for a law with potential criminal liability and a law with sweeping limits on political speech.
The ‘War Party’ Makes Its Plans
However many foolish voters may be illusioned otherwise, if Harris takes the White House her business will be neither more nor less than managing the imperium —the wars, the provocations, the illegal sanctions and other collective punishments, the terrorist clients in Israel, the neo–Nazis in Kiev.
Don’t Trust the Government
Local government is fundamental not so much because it’s a “laboratory” of democracy but because it’s a school of democracy. Through such accountable and democratic government, Americans learn to be democratic citizens.
On State Department Censorship and Blacklisting
The GEC memo matters because it shows the State Department’s efforts to tie domestic critics to foreign influence, its extraordinary willingness/eagerness to lie even about basic things, and its desperation to conceal almost everything about its work from voters and Congress alike.

Lab meat down on the farm: It’s going to happen, say advocates
Science fiction down on the farm? What about this? Take some biopsies from live meat animals, put the cells, suspended in nutrients, in large bioreactors, and wait for them to grow into a larger mass that can be processed into products such as burgers and sausages.
A confluence of unprecedented circumstances
These forces have taken on a life of their own. Mr. Rogers doubts that anyone is in charge. All of these key actors and institutions are just following an instinct of more, more, more (power, wealth, sadism, control) without regard for why they are doing that.
Ukraine War Turns Into Russian Roulette
Biden is working to put Ukraine in the “best possible position to prevail” during his final months in office. The bottom line is that Biden’s war strategy is attenuating as “escalation management” while NATO transitions as a direct party to hostilities.
