As a result of a US government directive, we are suspending access to Claude Fable 5 for all users. You can continue to use all other Claude models.
Here’s what this means for you:
Across Claude products, new sessions will run on your selected default model or Opus 4.8, and existing Fable 5 sessions will end with an error.
On the Claude Platform, requests to Fable 5 will also return an error. Please update your integrations to other Claude models.
We know this is a disruption to your workflows; we appreciate your patience and support.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

LA County confirmed these ballots were not counted. Unfortunately a few people thought a library drop box was the same as a ballot drop box.
A thousand dollars says I will still get this post in the replies from accounts that value narrative over the truth.

🚨JUST IN: Multiple CA Ballots Found Inside LA County Library.
We have just received this picture from within Stevenson Ranch Library near Santa Clarita, CA. The photo allegedly shows multiple ballots inside of the libraries own safe, this is where the library keeps other things such as cash.
This picture was taken last Friday. We are hopeful these ballots made it to the right processing centers.

Republicans must feel comfortable enough with election integrity in California to swear in a new member before the election is even certified.

NEW: Speaker Johnson will swear in Rep.-elect James Gallagher (R-CA-1) today who secured enough votes to avoid an August runoff.
Gallagher replaces the late Rep. Doug LaMalfa and was expected to face a runoff in the district which would have delayed filling the seat until later this year.

Raman cried during the part of the speech when she addressed her children and how they only knew her when she was running for something. The “she tearfully conceded” stuff was memed into existence from people who didn’t watch the whole thing. youtube.com/shorts/gJ1VaUso-…
Unbelievable that the Washington Post opinion page would print something this straightforwardly false

SCOOP: Tillis sent GOP senators a lengthy email Monday night laying into them for blocking his attempt to eliminate the so-called “anti-weaponization” fund and for pushing two votes on the SAVE America Act.

INVESTIGATION 🚨 A #Polymarket exec used a personal PayPal account to pay major political influencers like Riley Gaines and Brian Krassenstein, who in turn hyped how "accurate" Polymarket is at predicting outcomes.
We uncovered $350,000 flowing this way in 2025 and early 2026.

UPDATE: New World Screwworm is no longer contained to Texas.
USDA says that the infested dog announced earlier today lives in Lea County, New Mexico and will be reclassified as the first detection in that state.
And now a goat in Gillespie County, TX, has also been confirmed.

nope. Scott Doyle, a Republican, created the vote center system adopted by Los Angeles County in Larimer County, Colorado in 2003. and universal vote-by-mail was administered and supported by election officials from both parties long before California adopted it.
Jun 8
True, Trump should not have asserted, without evidence, that there was election tampering in L.A. But. Come. On. Democrats created this system -- allowing for the maximum number of late and even questionable voters to vote -- because they wanted to secure their lock on power. If Soboroff really wanted to inform his viewers, he would provide them with the full picture, and he would at least acknowledge that the way in which votes are counted in California greatly undermines faith in our elections.

NEW: The DOJ was criminally investigating the companies of W. Va.'s MAGA Senator Jim Justice.
Until then-DAG Todd Blanche's office killed it. Prosecutors were told "pencils down."

I don't think I've seen an ad like this before - uses extensive footage of Pope Leo XIV warning against AI and ties it to a candidate's (CO8's Manny Rutinel) proposed AI regulations.
From a super PAC funded entirely by tech billionaire Chris Larsen, the founder of Ripple.

There was a claim circulating on social media about an election night ballot update at the Los Angeles Registrar of Voters where one candidate received zero votes.
We reviewed official county records. The claim is false. Each candidate received votes in every update.
My office will continue monitoring the election counting process and will follow the evidence wherever it leads.
If anyone has credible information concerning election fraud, please send it to:

We should all aspire to have the confidence of this beaver trying to dam the Hudson.
Check out the Park's newest visitor — a beaver! 🦫 Recently seen swimming around Gansevoort Peninsula, this beaver marks the first recorded sighting in our 400-acre Estuarine Sanctuary! Though a rare sight in NYC, beavers are native to our local waterways.

The tiny town of Bow Mar has approved plans to gate off its public streets from outsiders. And it’s not the first time this town has tried to keep everyone else out.
Denver and Littleton are now threatening to install their own barriers. @nexton9news
