Consider This from NPR - Latest Trump Indictment Is ‘Most Important’ One Yet

Trump was charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, witness tampering, conspiracy against the rights of citizens and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding.

Special counsel Jack Smith has been leading the investigation into Trump's conduct after the 2020 election and his role in the insurrection that played out at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

All of this is in the new book I Am Code: An Artificial Intelligence Speaks. Plus, Devon Archer testifies about the weather nine years ago, and the Taliban virtue signals.

A new series of eye-opening studies from Science and Nature may challenge the way we view social media and polarization. The results seem to be counterintuitive to the common narrative of social media’s role in polarization, which begs the question – how polarizing is social media?
