A Portland city council member is calling for the rules to change to allow council members to open carry a firearm after far-left, anti-ICE extremists forced the council chambers to be evacuated during an occupation.

Amazon Web Service experienced a 13-hour outage in December after its internal AI coding assistant Kiro was given autonomy to fix an issue on a live system. Instead of applying a small fix, Kiro chose to delete and recreate the environment, triggering a chain reaction that disrupted service.

Amazon calls it "user error" because an engineer gave Kiro broader permissions than expected. But according to the Financial Times, Kiro had permissions similar to a human engineer and the change went through without peer review. AWS employees told the FT this was the second time in recent months an AI coding tool had caused a service issue, describing the outages as "entirely foreseeable."

My Take
Amazon's framing is convenient but misses the point. Yes, an engineer gave the AI too much access. But that's exactly the risk with agentic AI in production. Someone always has to decide what permissions to grant, and if the AI behaves unexpectedly within those permissions, blaming the human doesn't prevent it from happening again.

The deeper issue is that AI-generated code often looks fine at first glance. It passes tests, deploys clean. The problems show up later in edge cases nobody thought to test, security vulnerabilities that don't fit traditional patterns, or logic that works until it suddenly doesn't. We're accumulating technical debt at scale without understanding what we're taking on. The outage was dramatic and visible, but I'm more worried about the subtle bugs that won't cause outages but will quietly be wrong for months before anyone notices. AWS runs infrastructure for thousands of businesses. If a single AI agent can take down services for 13 hours, the safeguards aren't where they need to be. The tools are being deployed faster than the guardrails.

It’s called:

ACCOUNTABILITY!!!

"A target rich environment” yet not one indictment or arrest of substance???

If the Brits can arrest a royal, why can’t America arrest ________?

Accountability is the real question on the midterm ballot. If America lets elites escape justice again, distrust and instability will explode. Read the full analysis here: https://genflynn.substack.com/p/america-without-accountability

The fight for free speech, national sovereignty, and the moral foundation of our nation is not confined to one country. Across the West, people recognize the same pattern of institutional failure, political protectionism, and elites who seem more committed to preserving power than serving their citizens.

From the United Kingdom’s deeply disturbing grooming gang scandals to America’s battles over transparency, government overreach, and public trust, the demand for truth is growing louder. Citizens are no longer willing to ignore corruption or accept silence in place of accountability.

We must restore integrity, defend open debate, and put the interests of the people ahead of the interests of the powerful.

President Trump, please shut the Department of Education down immediately!

Shut the doors, thank those in the department for their service, give them a 90 day severance payment, and let them go find employment elsewhere around the country. There are plenty of jobs available

If you are still a registered Democrat, you need to seriously consider changing your party affiliation (as I did). God help the children who are being abused by these psychopaths.

JUST IN - Trump officially signs order placing a 10% global tariff on all countries.
