Amazing: KPMG wrote a report describing the successful use of AI by businesses. But the case studies turned out to be AI hallucinations. giftarticle.ft.com/giftartic…

"Lest you think the applications are limited to insufferably 'woke' climate-change-related purposes, the instruments have lots of other useful functions." That's not enough to stop their defunding. The latest edition of Receipts from @crampell: lnk.thebulwark.com/4aLuHTI

Graham backs taking Kharg Island
If there is no deal soon Mr. President, you are right to put on the table the taking of Kharg Island. I very much appreciate @POTUS and his team going the extra mile to obtain a diplomatic solution to the Iranian conflict. It is apparent to me that the regime is not a reliable partner in these negotiations and that at every turn they create provocation believing it gives them more leverage. President Trump’s announcement today that it may be time to take Kharg Island is welcome news and would be the ultimate game changer. The combination of continuing to force the Strait open and at the same time controlling Kharg Island’s operations by force or blockade would be the most consequential move President Trump could make, regaining the dominance and leverage America needs to end this conflict on favorable terms. Time is of essence.

U.S. ENERGY CHIEF DISPUTES IRAN OIL CLAIM U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said he is unaware of any operation to seize millions of barrels of Iranian oil, contradicting earlier comments by Donald Trump. Wright told lawmakers that U.S. forces have helped facilitate some oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz and noted that tanker traffic has increased significantly over the past week.

Trump: "I don't consider them in danger." Well, they are in danger. In fact, I'm told DOD is giving--as they should!--many troops in the Iran theater Imminent Danger Pay or Hostile Fire Pay. I'd welcome more information on this from ex-military, defense correspondents, etc.
Q: "Are you saying you would consider sending some of the troops home?" Trump: "It costs us very little to keep them there. I don't consider them in danger." Thirteen Americans have been killed and hundreds have been injured in Operation Epic Fury.

Something that occurred to me in my convo with @crampell: the immunity from the IRS that Trump has secured for himself may very well become a feature in deals dolled out by his DOJ. he's certainly laid the predicate. youtube.com/watch?v=_M90ejVi…

Oh.
In appeals court fight over the White House ballroom, DOJ says the federal government could quickly bulldoze the statute of liberty and no one would have standing to sue over the changes once the demolition is done.

huge, huge cave / flipflop by Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), who voted for the ICE bill after telling EVERY reporter yesterday he wouldn't vote for it without restrictions on Trump's slush fund. "I'm not going to vote for it if we don't have underlying language to restrict 1776 fund."

Tomorrow, U.S. distillate inventories will likely fall under 100 million barrels for the first time in over 20 years, exacerbated by high exports due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz- this is a powder keg waiting to go off if a deal to reopen the Strait doesn't happen soon
