Extraordinary journalism from @NewYorker, on Jared Kushner's catastrophic diplomacy, conflicts of interest, arrogance. He represents "a new kind of Washington figure, for whom public office serves as a means to extraordinary wealth"

Like Ukip and like Brexit, Reform is fundamentally a scheme hatched and backed by very rich men who are peeved that they don't run the country. Surely even their own voters have to grasp this eventually.

Convicted in the US.
Pardoned by Trump.
Record donation to Reform.
Crypto-billionaires. Criminals. People who think they can buy and sell British politics.
That’s who Reform stand for.
That’s who they’ve always stood for.

£36MILLION to the Reform Party from..you guessed it - a Crypto Billionaire who moved to the UK SPECIFICALLY to give this donation.
Not just that...but guess what? You know how Farage is just a magnet for these type of wrong uns?? Its happened again!
Ben Delo was convicted in the US for failing to stop money laundering at BitMEX!!! later pardoned by Trump 👀
My understanding is - he was convicted of running a platform deliberately designed to hide the origins of money!! And is now pouring cash into British politics.
What is it about Farage that attracts these types?

BREAKING: OpenAI might have stolen another major proof.
In a detailed Mastodon post, which I report in full in the comments, Andreas Thom presents several pieces of evidence suggesting that OpenAI may have trained Astra on conversations in which he and Gábor Kun were working on Gromov’s soficity conjecture, one of the ten problems OpenAI later announced Astra had solved.
I know Andreas. We met several times early in our careers. He is an exceptional mathematician, a leading expert on sofic and hyperlinear groups, and one of the most respected scholars in the field. He has spent two decades working on this problem.
If his account is correct, this is not a minor dispute over attribution. It would mean that unpublished human work was absorbed into a model and then presented to the world as a breakthrough by the model itself.
And if the allegations raised by Levent Alpöge, Tristan Buckmaster, and now Andreas Thom are all substantiated, we are no longer looking at isolated incidents.
We may be looking at one of the greatest intellectual scandals in the history of science.
AI is not discovering new mathematics.
AI is stealing human discovery.

Not at a protest that turned nasty. Not in a riot. Not in self-defence. A woman at a conference, posing zero threat. I was shocked by the violence, obviously, but I think I'm more shocked by this. This is the face he wants us to see.

Another young female protester receiving brutal treatment for heckling at the Reform conference.
Look at the guy take a swipe at her with his crutch.
Nigel Farage actually encouraged this from the stage, he’s completely unfit for public office.
Just awful

Verbatim went undercover in Reform. Nigel Farage has some very serious questions to answer 👇
Nick Green retweeted
“It worked, boom.”
That’s Nigel Farage celebrating a Reform UK plot to break election law - by having a US company secretly pay for three influential political polls that benefitted the party.
Earlier in the investigation, Reform’s Head of Policy James Orr and senior advisor Dan Jukes arranged for a Verbatim reporter to pay for the polls through a US company. Orr and Jukes believed the firm was run by the reporter’s American father.
Mr Farage was filmed by undercover reporters from @Verbatim_Media as part of a year-long investigation that Channel 4 News has thoroughly checked and verified.
This meeting took place in his Clacton constituency in July - when Mr Farage was fighting a by-election he called after separate allegations about his finances.
Watch the full investigation on YouTube.

Byline Times has obtained Electoral Commission filings on Reform UK's finances.
Key findings:
* £72,000 paid to Touchpoint Strategy, set up just three months before Reform hired it. No accounts filed. Now facing compulsory strike-off. Its directors include a CPAC-GB organiser and an attendee of a Heartland Institute climate denial conference.
* £125,600 paid to Jupiter Visual Communications, which then donated £50,000 back to Reform. The first known case of a Reform supplier also becoming a donor.
* £218,000 paid to companies run by the party's former chairman.
* The auditor's name was redacted in the published accounts. The Electoral Commission says this was "a mistake."
* A £1 million interest-free loan from a company linked to Richard Tice - £613,000 later written off as a donation.
Reform UK: the party of the people.
The people are on the paperwork.
This lot are grubbier than FIFA
Richard Tice appears to have used more than half a million pounds he received from the mother of Nigel Farage’s long-term aide George Cottrell to convert loans he had made to Reform UK into donations. ft.trib.al/QCXQHlo

O comentarista suíço David Lemos, encerrou a transmissão resumindo com precisão os problemas desta Copa do Mundo, ele foi perfeito.
🗣️"Não há dúvidas de que esta foi a Copa do Mundo mais comercial da história e também uma das mais politizadas."
"Não esqueceremos os preços que pessoas sem grande poder aquisitivo tiveram de pagar para viver sua paixão pelo futebol."
"Em alguns casos, sequer puderam entrar no país por causa de sua nacionalidade, fossem torcedores, jornalistas ou até árbitros, como o somali Omar Artan."
"Também lembramos do tratamento inaceitável dado à seleção do Irã, que não pôde defender suas chances de forma adequada durante o torneio."
"E há ainda o caso de Folarin Balogun. Vimos um presidente se vangloriar de ter ligado para o presidente da FIFA para conseguir retirar a suspensão de um jogador."
"A política se infiltrou no coração do futebol, embora a FIFA afirme querer mantê-la acima de tudo. Fica claro que isso só vale até certo ponto."
"Foi uma Copa do Mundo em que todas as partidas foram disputadas em quatro tempos, e cuja final teve um intervalo de quase 30 minutos."
"A crise tem dois nomes: dinheiro e poder. Hoje existe uma crise de confiança entre muitos dos envolvidos no futebol e a FIFA."
"Nas próximas semanas, muito dinheiro será distribuído a diversas federações e a muitos agentes do futebol, que serão educadamente convidados a permanecer em silêncio."
"Esperamos que tudo isso seja levado em consideração e que não volte a acontecer."
