The Rule of Lawless 0

At Above the Law, Joe Patrice looks at Donald Trump’s Executive Order forbidding states from regulating AI and concludes

When AI hallucinates, it at least has the decency to admit it’s wrong when called out. When the executive branch does it, apparently we just call it policy.

Go read the article to learn why Patrice reached that conclusion.

Republican Thought Police 0

Once again, the Republican thought police exercise their freedom to repress.

The University of Alabama has suspended two student magazines, seemingly because (gasp!) they recognize that not all persons are alike. Here’s a bit from the news story (emphasis added):

Alice Magazine and Nineteen Fifty-Six, the two magazines affected, were both university-funded through the university’s Department of Student Life. Both magazines, which were launched in 2015 and 2020 respectively, were geared toward a specific audience. Alice’s work focused primarily on health, wellness, fashion and women’s issues, and Nineteen Fifty-Six mainly covered Black culture and life on UA’s campus. Each magazine published one print issue each semester.

A statement from the university said that the decision was fueled by a need to “comply with our legal obligations.” (An anti-DEI memo from AG Pam Bondi–ed.)

“This requires us to ensure all members of our community feel welcome to participate in programs that receive University funding from the Office of Student Media,” wrote Alex House, a spokesperson for the University of Alabama, in the University’s statement.

Apparently, in Republican World, the way to make persons feel welcome is to pretend that they don’t exist.
