Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - CLASSIC: The Far-out World of Deep Fakes

For centuries, it was often understood that "seeing was believing" -- while people might embellish a story, and write whatever falsehoods they wished, visually witnessing an event was solid proof of what actually happened in any given situation. Yet this no longer holds true in the modern age. Photographs have been faked since, well, the invention of photography, and video followed shortly thereafter. However, new technology is enabling the creation of fake video with an unprecedented level of sophistication and believability. So what happens when we can no longer believe our own eyes? How will the world react to the rise of the Deep Fake?

1A - ICYMI: A Quarter Of HHS Workforce Lost Due To Cuts

The Trump administration's cutbacks to the federal workforce continued this week at the Department of Health and Human Services.

Thousands of staffers were fired at agencies like the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the layoffs last week, an additional "reduction in force" of 10,000 people on top of the 10,000 who've already left the department this year. This amounts to one of the largest government departments losing a quarter of its workforce.

One of the agencies affected is the National Institutes of Health. The network of research centers funds much of the country's biomedical research.

We discuss what the layoffs at the NIH mean for the country's ability to research and develop medical treatments.

The Bulwark Podcast - S2 Ep1013: Mallory McMorrow and Tracy Alloway: A Self-Inflicted Crisis

The market plunge is just pure Trump chaos, and perfectly matches his record as a businessman. From his numerous bankruptcies and many failures—including his airline, his casinos, his university, his water, and his steaks—he's been running one long con. And the supposedly smart people who should have known better put him back in power, somehow thinking he would never do something like destroy global trade. Meanwhile, in Michigan, where there have already been job losses directly caused by Trump's tariff war, State Senator Mallory McMorrow announced she's running for the U.S. Senate—saying she's had enough of the leadership and the bullshit in DC.

Bloomberg's Tracy Alloway and Mallory McMorrow join Tim Miller.
