"If I woke up tomorrow and read that Al Qaeda terrorists had used ChatGPT to create a powerful bioweapon that destroyed Washington DC, I’d think “yah, I guess that tracks.” I wouldn’t be surprised, I’d just be skeptical it was really Al Qaeda. If I read that Ilya Sutskever had come out of stealth mode to announce he had created Artificial Superintelligence and was starting a new religion to worship it, I’d think “yah, I sort of expected that” and go browse X to see which celebrities had joined. Hell, if the Pope held a joint press conference with James Cameron to reveal that extraterrestrials are actually demons from Marianna’s Trench and Cameron had one in his submarine, I’d just shrug, because I’ve already read Mark Bisone’s substack so I knew that was coming."

Operation CHAOS was a secret CIA program created in 1967 to investigate alleged foreign influence on American protest movements. Pressured by Presidents Johnson and Nixon, the CIA expanded the project far beyond its original purpose, collecting massive amounts of data on U.S. citizens in violation of its legal charter.
By the early 1970s, the operation had 13,000 files (including 7,200 on Americans) and indexed over 300,000 names, mostly domestic. Despite repeated findings that no significant foreign ties existed, the White House’s demands drove the CIA to increase surveillance, infiltrate activist groups, and share thousands of reports with the FBI and other agencies.
The program operated with extreme secrecy, minimal oversight, and direct presidential involvement. It continued until 1974, when Director William Colby shut it down.
The Rockefeller Commission concluded that Operation CHAOS violated the CIA’s authority, blurred the line between foreign and domestic intelligence, and exemplified how executive pressure and lack of accountability can lead to unlawful surveillance. They made recommendations but nothing changed.
In essence: Operation CHAOS revealed how fear of subversion and political pressure can turn a foreign intelligence agency inward, against its own citizens. And this is happening today.

Orbán explained why Hungary did not block the adoption of the EU’s 19th sanctions package against Russia.
According to him, Budapest agreed to the new restrictions only after all provisions that could allegedly harm Hungarian interests were removed:
“We removed everything that was bad for Hungary.”
Orbán added that although the EU “continues a sanctions policy that is fundamentally wrong,” the adopted decision “does not affect Hungary negatively.”

"Yesterday, two near-simultaneous acts of sabotage saw explosions ripping through oil refineries in both Hungary and Romania. In Hungary it was the MOL in Százhalombatta, which reportedly receives Russian oil, while in Romania the Petrotel-Lukoil, a subsidiary of the Russian parent company.
"As one commentator writes, these attacks came literally hours after the European Council had just approved to ban Russian gas starting in 2026:
"The timing here is exceptionally curious because this attack came just hours after the European Council essentially locked in its position to almost completely ban Russian gas imports, with new contracts being outlawed at the beginning of 2026, and all long term contracts forcibly expiring in 2028. A similar ban on oil imports is expected in the near future. Hungary and Slovakia have pledged to issue legal challenges to the ban."

"As statistician William Briggs quipped:
"When physicists chase “impingeworthy” results but skip over awkwardly simple cringeworthy mistakes in the fundamentals, they lose their way, no matter how dazzling their mathematics or how great their genius. A telling example comes from Paul Dirac, one of the architects of quantum mechanics."

Love of theory is the root of all evil. Love of truth, on the other hand, is the root of all that is good… When and if a theory describes reality without error it is no longer a theory but truth. If a theory does not describe reality perfectly, then it is not true. To love a theory over truth is the mark of madness. Or of Enlightenment. Or, nowadays often, of tenure.

TIL In 1935, while heiress Ann Cooper Hewitt was in the hospital for an appendectomy, her mother convinced the doctors to sterilize her. It just so happened that there was a clause in Ann’s father’s will stating that if she had no heirs, her portion of his estate would revert to her mother.
