New York Times Grants Race Science Enthusiast Anonymity in Mamdani Hit Piece
Mamdani, a 33-year-old New York state assemblyman, shocked the political world last month with a primary win over former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned his position in 2021 after several women accused him of sexual harassment.
The Times noted that on the campaign trail, Mamdani touted his Muslim faith and South Asian ancestry. He was born in Uganda in 1991 and moved with his parents to South Africa five years later. Two years later, the family moved to New York.
::: spoiler The Times report cited a figure who goes by the name Crémieux on X and Substack:
- Last month’s cyberattack appears to have been carried out in order to see if Columbia was still using race-conscious affirmative action in its admission policies after the Supreme Court effectively barred the practice in 2023.
- While Mr. Mamdani was not a target of the hack, the information about him was included in a database of millions of student applications to Columbia going back decades. The data was shared with The Times by an intermediary who goes by the name Crémieux on Substack and X. He provided the data under condition of anonymity, although his identity has been made public elsewhere. He is an academic who opposes affirmative action and writes often about I.Q. and race.
:::
One of the speakers at the conference is billed under a social media alias, Cremieux, but the Guardian has corroborated that the account is apparently run by Jordan Lasker, a long-time proponent of eugenics.
::: spoiler The @cremieuxrecueil X account has been boosted or engaged with dozens of times by that platform’s proprietor, Elon Musk, often on the topic of falling birthrates.
- On 27 November, Musk reposted a Cremieux comment on falling birthrates, adding: “With rare exception, all countries are trending towards population collapse.”
- On 29 April, Cremieux posted: “Only about a third of the world even meets replacement rate fertility. This is the biggest problem of our time.” Musk responded: “Yes.”
- Musk has also boosted or responded favorably to Cremieux posts on other rightwing hobby horses such as crime in Portland, Oregon, and allegations that Democrats had created loopholes in the asylum system.
- Away from X, Cremieux runs a Substack also featuring posts on the supposed relationships between race and IQ. A prominently featured post there seeks to defend the argument that average national IQs vary by up to 40 points, with countries in Europe, North America, and East Asia at the high end and countries in the global south at the low end, and several African countries purportedly having average national IQs at a level that experts associate with mental impairment.

Mostra del cinema di Venezia, il film d’apertura sarà “La grazia” di Paolo Sorrentino
Il nuovo film di Paolo Sorrentino, La Grazia, aprirà in prima mondiale la 82/a Mostra del cinema di Venezia. Il film sarà presentato in prima mondiale mercoledì 27 agosto 2025 nella Sala Grande del Palazzo del Cinema (Lido di Venezia), nella serata di apertura dell’82. Biennale Cinema. Il protagonista è Toni Servillo, alla sua settima collaborazione con il regista Premio Oscar. Nel cast anche Anna Ferzetti.
“Sono molto felice che ad aprire l’82. Mostra d’Arte Cinematografica di Venezia sia il nuovo, attesissimo film di Paolo Sorrentino – dichiara Alberto Barbera – Mi piace ricordare che uno dei più importanti e apprezzati autori italiani a livello internazionale esordì proprio alla Biennale di Venezia nel 2001 con il suo primo film, L’uomo in più, nei miei primi anni da Direttore artistico. Un legame con la Mostra consolidato nel corso degli anni con la presentazione fuori concorso dei primi episodi della serie The Young Pope (prima e seconda stagione) e, soprattutto, con È stata la mano di Dio che, nel 2021, si meritò il Leone d’argento-Gran Premio della Giuria. Il ritorno in concorso di Paolo Sorrentino avviene con un film destinato a lasciare il segno per la sua grande originalità e forte sintonia con il presente, che il pubblico della Mostra avrà il piacere di scoprire nella serata d’apertura”.

In eigener Sache: Inhaltswarnungen
Es ist gar nicht so einfach, das Richtige zu tun, weil ich nicht genau weiß, wo mein eigenes Wissen aufhört – und meine Blindheit beginnt. Seit ich damit begonnen habe, Inhaltswarnungen für Filme zu schreiben, die ich bespreche, stolpere ich regelmäßig über diese Grenze. Sie verläuft nicht am Rand irgendeines Lexikons, sondern mitten durch mich hindurch: Was sehe ich – und was nicht? Was halte ich aus, weil ich es gewohnt bin – und was halten andere kaum aus, wenn sie davon getroffen werden?

Trump’s Defiance of TikTok Ban Prompted Immunity Promises to 10 Tech Companies

The Justice Department is advancing a radical theory of presidential power, nullifying Congress’s foreign affairs powers whenever the president finds them inconvenient.These letters provide a legal rationale (if it can be called that) for the Trump administration’s commitment not to enforce the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (PAFACAA), the divestment-or-ban law that the Supreme Court upheld in January. The letters make two central claims, both of which are astonishing in their breadth and implications for executive power.

World Health Organization (WHO) launches bold push to raise health taxes and save millions of lives
The “3 by 35” Initiative targets tobacco, alcohol, and sugary drinks to cut deaths and boost health and development fundingThe World Health Organization (WHO) today has launched a major new initiative urging countries to raise real prices on tobacco, alcohol, and sugary drinks by at least 50% by 2035 through health taxes in a move designed to curb chronic diseases and generate critical public revenue. The “3 by 35” Initiative comes at a time when health systems are under enormous strain from rising noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), shrinking development aid and growing public debt.
The consumption of tobacco, alcohol, and sugary drinks are fueling the NCD epidemic. NCDs, including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, account for over 75% of all deaths worldwide. A recent report shows that a one-time 50% price increase on these products could prevent 50 million premature deaths over the next 50 years.

Big Tech Execs Commissioned into the Army [16:52 | JUL 03 2025 | Glenn Greenwald]

- 0:00.000 - 0:06.250 Intermission
- 14:21.000 - 16:26.000 Sponsor
Generated Summary:
Main Topic: The increasing integration of Big Tech companies with the US government and military, specifically focusing on the commissioning of tech executives into the Army Reserve.
Key Points:
- Tech Execs Joining the Army: Executives from Meta, OpenAI, and Palantir are joining the US Army Reserve as part of a new "Innovation Corps" (Detachment 2011) to bring tech upgrades to the military.
- Motivations: The tech executives cite patriotism and a desire to equip the military for conflicts with high-tech adversaries like China. The speaker suggests the tech sector will also profit from this arrangement.
- Fascism Analogy: The speaker draws a parallel to fascism, where there is no separation between the public and private sectors, and corporations and the government work together for the same goals.
- Debunking the "Aversion" Myth: The speaker refutes the idea that Silicon Valley was previously averse to working with the military, citing examples like the Snowden revelations and existing contracts between tech companies and intelligence agencies (CIA, NSA).
- Historical Context: The speaker references John Poindexter and Palantir's origins, highlighting the long-standing relationship between Silicon Valley and the intelligence community.
- Alarming Language: The speaker finds the language used by the tech executives about uniting American innovation with the military's mission to be alarming, echoing the core tenet of fascism.
- Eisenhower's Warning: The speaker invokes Dwight Eisenhower's warning about the militarization of American life, suggesting that this integration is a realization of that warning on a grander scale.
Highlights:
- The commissioning of tech executives into the Army Reserve is presented as a significant development, symbolizing the deepening ties between Big Tech and the US military.
- The speaker emphasizes the potential dangers of this integration, drawing parallels to fascism and raising concerns about the erosion of the separation between corporate and state power.
- The historical context provided challenges the narrative of a recent shift in Silicon Valley's relationship with the military, revealing a long history of cooperation.

Judge rejects executive order claiming ‘invasion’ at the border
A federal judge Wednesday ruled as unlawful an executive order by President Donald Trump that barred asylum by claiming an “invasion” at the southern border and the need to protect states.
“The President cannot adopt an alternative immigration system, which supplants the statutes that Congress has enacted,” District of Columbia U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss wrote in his opinion.
“Here, nothing in the (Immigration and Nationality Act) or the Constitution grants the President or his delegees the sweeping authority asserted in the Proclamation and implementing guidance,” continued Moss, who was appointed by former President Barack Obama.
The order from Moss also prevents the U.S. Department of Homeland Security from enforcing the executive order.
He also agreed to certify a class for potential asylum-seekers, which comes after last week’s Supreme Court ruling that curtailed nationwide injunctions from lower courts. Certifying a class was suggested by the court to give judges an avenue to make an order broader.
Bondi made changes to DOJ policy. Her former client Pfizer might have benefited
For the past several years, pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has been under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice for potential foreign corruption violations related to its activities in China and Mexico, according to the company’s financial filings.
But that appears to have changed after the Trump administration tapped Pam Bondi — previously an outside legal counsel for Pfizer — to lead the Justice department as attorney general.
In the company’s most recent annual report, filed three weeks after Bondi took office in early February, there was no longer any reference to the Justice Department investigations into the company’s potential violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act. A quarterly report in May also contains no reference to these investigations.
Republican FCC scraps ban on prison phone price gouging, a gift to some of his big donors
The Federal Communications Commission will no longer enforce a rule capping the price of prison phone calls, according to an announcement made Monday by FCC Chairman Brendan Carr.
The move suspends a 2024 FCC decision that capped the price of in-state phone calls at 6 cents minute for prisons and large jails and 7 cents per minute for medium-sized jails. Before the decision, a 15-minute phone call could cost as much as $11.35 at large jails in some states. Under the 2024 rules, those same phone calls would cost 90 cents.

“Not an easy project to build:” Australian developer switches on the biggest solar farm in the UK
Australian-based renewable energy and storage investor Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners says its new 373 MW Cleve Hill Solar Park – the biggest in the UK – has begun commercial operations.
The Cleve Hill solar park, situated in Kent in England’s south, consists of over 550,000 solar panels and is expected to provide clean electricity equivalent to the needs of 102,000 homes, and is being hailed as a landmark on multiple fronts.
It is four times the size of the next largest operational UK solar project, and will also feature a 150 MW co-located battery energy storage system (BESS), making it also the largest co-located solar plus storage project ever constructed in the UK power market.
Cleve Hill was also the first solar and battery storage project to be consented as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) by the UK government, and secured the first solar contract for difference (CfD) by the UK Government-backed Low Carbon Contracts Company.

Kilmar Ábrego García alleges torture and abuse in El Salvador mega-jail
According to new court documents filed on Wednesday as part of a lawsuit his wife brought against the Trump administration, Mr Ábrego García and 20 other detainees were repeatedly beaten when they arrived at El Salvador's Terrorism Confinement Centre, or Cecot.
Once there, according to the documents, Mr Ábrego García and 20 other deported inmates "were confined to metal bunks with no mattresses in an overcrowded cell with no windows, bright lights that remained on 24 hours a day, and minimal access to sanitation".
Mr Ábrego García has also alleged that he and the other prisoners were "forced to kneel" from 9 PM to 6 AM, "with guards striking anyone who fell from exhaustion".
At one point, guards allegedly threatened to confine him with gang members who would "tear" him apart.
His mistreatment led to him losing 30lbs (14kg) within the first two weeks of his incarceration in El Salvador, according to the complaint.

What about the outcome of the american revolutionary war ? What was it's outcome. Was the outcome not good ? Any revolution must have sound basis, logical basis. I am not talking about religious revolution. I am saying that USA today has been overtaken by idiot fascists. And even democrats won't do anything about it. Look at Luigi Mangione. How many democrats have openly supported him ? American people need to understand that trump and his friends are idiotic fascists. They are not completely like hitler. Hitler and his associates were smart and because of which they were able to destroy the world. But trump is basically a GATEWAY. If people tolerate trump today then there are people more evil and smarter than trump who will come to power. Imagine via trump if zuckerberg or musk or any other person comes to power. What will then happen to the common USA citizen ?
How can you say "be careful what you wish for, violent revolution never ends well for anarchists no matter who wins." ? What about the outcome of the american revolutionary war ? What was it's outcome. Was the outcome not good ?
The Revolutionary War is an excellent example of the winners of a violent revolution turning around and wielding state power against their former supporters - look up Shays' Rebellion.
More generally, the outcome of the Revolutionary War was good for America's landowning oligarchy. Not so good for ordinary white Americans. Definitely not good for slaves, nonwhites, and the Native Americans of the continent - particularly since one of the biggest reasons for revolution was that the colonists wanted to break their treaties with Native American tribes, kill them all and steal their land, and Britain wouldn't let them.
DHS to cut 75% of staff in its intelligence office amid heightened threat environment
The Department of Homeland Security's intelligence arm plans to cut nearly three-quarters of its full-time employees, shaving its Office of Intelligence & Analysis down from about 1,000 staff to just 275, according to four sources briefed on the matter.
The exact timing of the cuts remains unclear; sources tell CBS News the staff reductions have been in the works for months but were temporarily on hold because of rising tensions overseas after the recent U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The decision has raised concerns among the nation's police and intelligence gathering agencies, as the U.S. reckons with a heightened threat environment.
DHS' Office of Intelligence & Analysis — created after the September 11 terrorist attacks — is the only member of the U.S. intelligence community tasked with sharing threat information to state, local, tribal and territorial governments across the country.
