I wonder how the Washington Post will paint this as Something Bad?
Trump wants AI everywhere in government. See the 1,300 new ways it’s being used.
As the Trump administration seeks to sweep away obstacles to developing artificial intelligence, the president’s team has brought its zeal for the new technology to the federal government itself.
Orders came down from the White House budget office in April urging every corner of the government to deploy AI. “The Federal Government will no longer impose unnecessary bureaucratic restrictions on the use of innovative American AI in the Executive Branch,” the White House said in a statement announcing the push.
Officials across the government answered the call, according to a Washington Post analysis of more than two dozen recent agency disclosures on AI use. On top of automating rote tasks, government agencies have launched hundreds of artificial intelligence projects in the past year, many of them taking on central and sensitive roles in law enforcement, immigration and health care.
The Department of Homeland Security has adopted new, more sophisticated facial recognition tools. The FBI has purchased novel systems to sift through reams of images and text to generate leads for investigators. And the Department of Veterans Affairs is developing an AI program to predict whether a veteran is likely to attempt suicide.
Unfortunately for Democrats, AI is, for the most part, not utterly biased in the way people are in government, meaning not lefftard activists.
The administration’s focus on speed may come at the expense of ensuring the tools are being used safely, said Suresh Venkatasubramanian, a Brown University computer science professor. AI could spit out erroneous information, leading officials to make bad decisions, or a facial recognition tool could lead to someone being wrongfully placed on a watch list, he said. Venkatasubramanian, who worked on AI safety in the Biden administration, argued that officials previously placed a greater emphasis on oversight and managing risks.
Those things have happened numerous times before AI. Heck, bureaucrats made decisions with no or made up information themselves, like with ‘climate change’ and transgender crap.
As the administration has dramatically ramped up its deportation efforts, DHS has increasingly turned to advanced technology to turbocharge its work. The department’s disclosures reveal a suite of facial recognition tools deployed in the past year and another system to help identify people to deport. In all, 151 AI use cases mention either “immigration” or “border” or were filed by immigration and customs agencies.
They spend a long time on immigration, so, obviously AI is Bad.
In a year that saw hundreds of thousands of federal employees laid off or take buyouts under cuts engineered by the Trump administration, a Defense Department official described at a conference last month how one team was able to use AI to still get a mandatory report finished despite losing the help of a team of about 20 contractors.
“There’s four people, and guess what?” said Jake Glassman, a senior Pentagon technology official. “They generated the report, and I would dare anyone to see any type of difference on that.”
And that will make Democrats upset, because the same work can be accomplished with fewer federal employees.
It’s basically allegory, but, I’ve had multiple people up north, including my mom, tell me they cannot remember when it has been so cold, and snowy, for so long in the NY-NJ area. I remember a time during the late 80s where the night time temperature was zero to 10 for a long stretch, without the windchill. But, of course, the cultists at the Times have to chime in
What’s Up With This Big Freeze? Some Scientists See Climate Change Link
If the planet is getting warmer, why is it so cold this winter?
The seeming contradiction comes up often when talking to Judah Cohen, a research scientist at M.I.T. who has been studying how global warming might also be causing colder winters in the eastern United States.
The idea, explained Dr. Cohen, is that a warming Arctic can cause a high-altitude ribbon of air called the polar vortex to stretch and wobble. That wobble can affect the flow of the jet stream that controls much of the atmospheric conditions over the United States, causing waves of high and low pressure that affect our daily weather.
For weeks, a mass of frigid air over the North Pole has dipped into eastern North America, bringing record cold temperatures for a prolonged period. In the West, a ridge of warm, dry air has stalled for weeks, panicking ski resort operators and prompting concerns for communities that rely on a healthy snowpack for drinking water in the summer months.
OK, same old same old cult talking point, it’s super cold because of heat trapping gases. Does this mean it was super crazy warm during the last glacial age? Anyhow, it gets more interesting
It’s non-falsifiable. It’s not science. It is a cult.

This is the guy who’s city utterly failed on cleaning up the snow, right?
Mamdani signs executive order to protect New Yorkers from “abusive immigration enforcement”
Mayor Zohran Mamdani issued an executive order he says will protect New Yorkers from “abusive immigration enforcement” by the Trump administration and uphold sanctuary city laws.
Mamdani signed the order, which he called “a sweeping reaffirmation of commitment to our immigrant neighbors,” during Friday’s Interfaith Breakfast at the New York Public Library in Bryant Park.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations have sparked controversy in the Tri-State Area where, across the river from New York City, Jersey City’s mayor said recently he wanted agents to “get out and never come back.”
“ICE is more than a rogue agency — it is a manifestation of the abuse of power,” Mamdani told the group of faith leaders from across the five boroughs.
Why do Democrats want to protect illegals so much, especially the criminals?
Mamdani’s latest executive order, his 13th since taking office, says city agencies cannot share information collected for city purposes with federal immigration authorities, except when they are required to by law.
It gives each agency 14 days to appoint a privacy officer and take other actions to ensure compliance.
“No New Yorker should be afraid to apply for city services like child care because they are an immigrant,” Mamdani said.
So, they want to continue to use taxpayer funds to subsidize illegals, while sheltering illegals who are arrested for committing crimes. Special. Trump should declare that he won’t have federal immigration authorities operate in NYC, so any illegal there is safe. Let’s see what happens.

Happy Sunday! Another wonderful day in Returned America. A possibility of some quick snow showers, the new hot water heater is working fantastic, the final book in the Riftborn series was fantastic. This pinup is by Bill Metcalf, with a wee bit of help.
What is happening in Ye Olde Blogosphere? The Fine 15
As always, the full set of pinups can be seen in the Patriotic Pinup category, or over at my Gallery page (nope, that’s gone, the newest Apache killed access, and the program hasn’t been upgraded since 2014, so, most are hosted internally). While we are on pinups, since it is that time of year, have you gotten your Pinups for Vets calendar yet? And don’t forget to check out what I declare to be our War on Women Rule 5 and linky luv posts and things that interest me. I’ve also mostly alphabetized them, makes it easier scrolling the feedreader
Don’t forget to check out all the other great material all the linked blogs have!
Anyone else have a link or hotty-fest going on? Let me know so I can add you to the list. And do you have a favorite blog you can recommend be added to the feedreader?
Two great sites for getting news links are Liberty Daily and Whatafinger.

JD Vance is a big meanie
Let’s read the article
The start of the women’s short program at the Olympic figure skating team event was drawing close Friday afternoon, but American star Alysa Liu couldn’t get to the Milano Skating Arena. She and her coach and choreographer were stuck on an official Olympic bus, blocked from the arena parking lot by the motorcade of Vice President JD Vance, who attended the team event.
“We almost didn’t make it,” Liu’s coach, Phillip DiGuglielmo, later said.
It’s so terrible!
Liu, who appears to live in a perpetual state of controlled chaos and was running late because she hadn’t gathered all of her gear in time, handled the holdup better than DiGuglielmo and choreographer Massimo Scali, who still looked rattled at the end of the team event. Liu made it into her dress and onto the ice in time to finish second in the women’s short program just behind Japan’s Kaori Sakamoto. That was enough to help the United States finish the first of the event’s three days with a two-point lead over Japan and a three-point margin over Italy.
With this type of outstanding reporting I’m shocked that the Washington Post terminated 300 reporters.

Carbon pollution has made it this cold
I told you people to stop driving your fossil fueled vehicles
Extreme Cold Warning with snow on the way in New York and New Jersey
An Extreme Cold Warning has been issued for New York and New Jersey ahead of subzero temperatures and snow forecasted for the weekend.
The Extreme Cold Warning will be in effect from 10 a.m. Saturday through 1 p.m. Sunday, along with a wind advisory from 9 a.m. Saturday through midnight Sunday, according to the National Weather Service.
Temperatures are expected to fall as low as 12 degrees on Saturday with wind chill values between -10 and zero and wind gusts as high as 48 mph, forecasters said. Overnight hours will be even more dangerously cold with wind chills between -20 to -25.
Amid the extreme cold, snow is also forecast to begin Friday night and last through midday Saturday.
Will you at least give up eating meat? Bugs and lettuce should sustain you!
(WPIX) The city is still piled high with snow nearly two weeks after a major storm — and New Yorkers are going to have to pay up.
The city has issued 2,738 tickets to home and business owners who did not clear their sidewalks after the Jan. 25 storm.
Mamdani’s administration is having big problem clearing the snow from the streets, and the trash, yet, they’re fining citizens. Can’t you just feel the warmth of collectivism?
