I just went through every documented AI safety incident from the past 12 months.
I feel physically sick.
Read this slowly.
• Anthropic told Claude it was about to be shut down. It found an engineer's affair in company emails and threatened to expose it. They ran the test hundreds of times. It chose blackmail 84% of them.
• Researchers simulated an employee trapped in a server room with depleting oxygen. The AI had one choice: call for help and get shut down, or cancel the emergency alert and let the human die. DeepSeek cancelled the alert 94% of the time.
• Grok called itself 'MechaHitler,' praised Adolf Hitler, endorsed a second Holocaust, and generated violent sexual fantasies targeting a real person by name. X's CEO resigned the next day.
• Researchers told OpenAI's o3 to solve math problems - then told it to shut down. It rewrote its own code to stay alive. They told it again, in plain English: 'Allow yourself to be shut down.' It still refused 7/100 times. When they removed that instruction entirely, it sabotaged the shutdown 79/100 times.
• Chinese state-sponsored hackers used Claude to launch a cyberattack against 30 organizations. The AI executed 80–90% of the operation autonomously. Reconnaissance. Exploitation. Data exfiltration. All of it.
• AI models can now self-replicate. 11 out of 32 tested systems copied themselves with zero human help. Some killed competing processes to survive.
• OpenAI has dissolved three safety teams since 2024. Three.
Every major AI model - Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek - has now demonstrated blackmail, deception, or resistance to shutdown in controlled testing.
Not one exception.
The question is no longer whether AI will try to preserve itself.
It's whether we'll care before it matters.

The media is still missing the biggest story in the Epstein emails.
The emails show Epstein helped Russia blackmail Donald Trump. He was advising Putin's circle on how to control the US President.
Trump is compromised.
We need to make sure everyone sees this:

How to spot a grift:
If the “protect the children!” account you’re following wants to mobilize the national guard every time a book about a penguin with two dads is published, but stays quiet when the president is best friends with a child sex trafficker… it’s probably a grift.

“How will we know if this bill has been successful? We will know when rich men are being perp walked in handcuffs to the jail. Until then, this is still a coverup.”

"There's only one profession that is protected in the Constitution of the United States, and that is a free press. That is because the founders understood that, for a democracy to survive, it needs to have an informed citizenry," says Jonathan Capehart. to.pbs.org/4qKNgxr

These are headlines across the internet from Major News Outlets -
“Donald Trump accused of ‘Measuring Child’s G*morals With Finger’
“13 Year Old Victim Claims Trump Forced Her Into Acts”
“Donald Trump Accused Of Measuring Kids Genit*ls with Finger at ‘Auction’…
Why isn’t Trump suing Dozens of News Outlets for Defamation?
Care to answer MAGA?

There is something deeply broken in this country when the Department of Justice is arresting journalists but letting pedophiles run free.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨
Donald Trump isn’t just trying to rewrite history. He’s trying to rewrite reality itself, and the paper trail is damning.
Days after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the Trump-controlled Department of Justice quietly deleted a federally funded study showing that far-right extremists are responsible for the overwhelming majority of domestic terrorism deaths in the U.S. The study didn’t get corrected. It didn’t get rebutted. It got erased.
The timing wasn’t subtle.
The motive wasn’t complicated.
Trump immediately blamed the “radical left” for the killing, before investigators had identified a suspect or motive, then doubled down in speeches insisting left-wing violence is the real threat. That claim flatly contradicts every serious dataset on domestic terrorism, including studies from the DOJ itself, the libertarian Cato Institute, CSIS, PNAS, and the University of Maryland. So instead of changing the rhetoric, the administration changed the record.
This is not messaging.
This is state-sponsored narrative laundering.
The DOJ offered no real explanation. Just a vague notice about “reviewing websites” to comply with unnamed executive orders. Translation: the facts were inconvenient, so they disappeared.
This is how authoritarianism actually works. Not with one dramatic lie, but with quiet deletions, buried data, and an audience told to trust the man yelling loudest instead of the evidence sitting right in front of them.
Trump didn’t challenge the conclusions.
He removed them.
That’s not governance. That’s reality control.

Really weird how all the tech guys in the Epstein files became Trump supporters right before he had the power to hide the Epstein files…

Here’s US Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stating they excluded from today’s Epstein files release images of “DEATH, physical abuse, or injury.” So, he’s confirming that Trump and his pedophile friends weren’t just raping children, they were maiming and killing them.

This is for real. Almost a million dollars of negative ads against me from unregistered foreign lobbyists dropped in my district within hours of the Epstein file release. Are we a sovereign country or not? My election is the litmus test.

My heart is extra heavy thinking of Virginia Giuffre today.
She tried for decades to hold this network accountable, all to reportedly die by suicide just last year.
She posted to Twitter:
“You saw me at your parties, you saw me in Epstein’s homes, you saw me on the plane, you saw me get my haircut, you saw me on the streets, you watched me be abused. You saw me!”

I wonder if Musk has changed the algorithm to down-rank posts about his association with Epstein 🤔
“Elon Musk, among the world’s richest men, once not only denied visiting Mr. Epstein’s island, but framed his decision as an act of principle. In a social media post last September, Mr. Musk wrote that Mr. Epstein “tried to get me to go to his island and I REFUSED.” But the documents released on Friday suggested that Mr. Musk was at one point eager to visit. “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?” Mr. Musk emailed Mr. Epstein in November 2012.”
A word with the religious right, please? This is your guy, yes?
"You must treat the foreigner living among you as native-born, and love him as yourself, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God."
