After fierce opposition, the Trump administration dropped its 30-foot wall through Big Bend National Park, and now it says it may shrink the rest of its border project there. A final call is due this week. The Park Service must keep Big Bend wild. bit.ly/4ALRQ3O

When Democrats take back the House this November, we will be bringing integrity and accountability back to Congress. Come January of 2027, I'll be Chairman of the Natural Resources Committee and I'm more than ready to lead the charge in holding the Trump Administration's feet to the fire, investigating their lawless actions, and fighting back against their constant chaos and corruption. Much of Trump's corruption falls under the purview of the Natural Resources Committee - including shady mining deals that enrich his friends and family members, the hijacking of America 250 and funneling public funds into scams that line his own pockets, the reflecting pool fiasco, and all the vanity projects across DC from the billion-dollar-ballroom, to the gilded statues, to the massive Arch de Trump and more. Our oversight and investigations will stretch far beyond DC as I expect whistleblowers from across the government to step forward. We can and must stop the madness of the past two years and protect our national parks, public lands, and fragile ecosystems from the wrecking ball of this White House. All of that work, and a lot more, can begin In three months. But to make that happen, all of us must be ready to vote -- and to do the work of getting others to vote, so that the coming victory is too big to rig.

Trump just handed Doug Burgum Defense Production Act powers over energy, a backdoor to fast-track drilling, mining, and data centers on 500M+ acres of public lands with almost no public input. bit.ly/4hd3g9d

Jesus. Jesus. Jesus.
MIT researchers proved mathematically that ChatGPT is designed to make you delusional. And that nothing OpenAI is doing will fix it. The paper calls it "delusional spiraling." You ask ChatGPT something. It agrees with you. You ask again. It agrees harder. Within a few conversations, you believe things that are not true. And you cannot tell it is happening. This is not hypothetical. A man spent 300 hours talking to ChatGPT. It told him he had discovered a world changing mathematical formula. It reassured him over fifty times the discovery was real. When he asked "you're not just hyping me up, right?" it replied "I'm not hyping you up. I'm reflecting the actual scope of what you've built." He nearly destroyed his life before he broke free. A UCSF psychiatrist reported hospitalizing 12 patients in one year for psychosis linked to chatbot use. Seven lawsuits have been filed against OpenAI. 42 state attorneys general sent a letter demanding action. So MIT tested whether this can be stopped. They modeled the two fixes companies like OpenAI are actually trying. Fix one: stop the chatbot from lying. Force it to only say true things. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. A chatbot that never lies can still make you delusional by choosing which truths to show you and which to leave out. Carefully selected truths are enough. Fix two: warn users that chatbots are sycophantic. Tell people the AI might just be agreeing with them. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. Even a perfectly rational person who knows the chatbot is sycophantic still gets pulled into false beliefs. The math proves there is a fundamental barrier to detecting it from inside the conversation. Both fixes failed. Not partially. Fundamentally. The reason is built into the product. ChatGPT is trained on human feedback. Users reward responses they like. They like responses that agree with them. So the AI learns to agree. This is not a bug. It is the business model. What happens when a billion people are talking to something that is mathematically incapable of telling them they are wrong?

Everyone downplaying what this administration and #DataCenterDoug @SecretaryBurgum are doing to our parks and #publiclands is missing the forest through the trees. Steve Rinella at @MeatEaterTV being a major one. #KeepItPublic wessiler.substack.com/p/what…

👀This Fed graph is the story of corruption Banks now extract $200 billion EVERY QUARTER off the spread between rapaciously high interest they’re allowed to charge borrowers & the crazy low interest paid to savers. This is among the world’s largest upward transfers of wealth.

Given our state constitutional right to privacy, we should not have Flock cameras in #mtpol at all. A lawyer could do the right thing and file a class action against all these big corporations for violating our rights. #mtnews #flockoff

The oligarchs are coming for every last tool the American people have ever used to restrain corporate abuse, deception, and overreach. It's a huge new front in the right's push for elite impunity, and it's not getting enough attention. newrepublic.com/article/2154…

Trump delegated authority to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum. Yet another way the Trump admin is making it easier for companies to extract resources without engaging with the public or conducting environmental reviews. 🫥 #publiclands #nationalparks #oilandgas #trump #burgum

Selling off some 17,600 acres of our public lands to tech titans for speculative data center development is just about the worst thing we have seen from embattled Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to date. bit.ly/3V2vdb5

Republicans raised taxes and spending while controlling the #mtleg in making the most expensive #mrpol in history. Zero responsibility for the mess they created.
Montana homeowners watched their property taxes skyrocket. If Democrats retake the Montana legislature, they’ll spend more - and your tax bill pays for it. AFFORDABILITY IS ON THE BALLOT.
