The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

Εξαιρετικό ρεπορτάζ της @Kathimerini_gr για την Κίμπερλι Γκίλφοϊλ, αλλά και για τον Χρήστο Μαραφάτσο. Η αποχώρηση της έκανε πολλά στόματα να ανοίξουν. Πηγές στις οποίες οι δημοσιογράφοι δεν είχαν πριν πρόσβαση.

"Guilfoyle was scrambling to save her job ... when the Journal published an investigation revealing texts showing she had solicited $100,000 from a Trump donor, Guilfoyle reached out to the WH to say the text messages were AI generated. The officials didn’t believe her claims. Journal reporters verified the authenticity of the donor’s text messages." wsj.com/politics/policy/kimb…

“She wasn’t a member of my family”
President Trump addressed allegations against Kimberly Guilfoyle after the White House asked her to resign as U.S. ambassador to Greece, saying he was unhappy with what he had read. “We didn't like what we were reading,” Trump told reporters, adding that he had not spoken to Guilfoyle personally about the allegations. “She will not be there."

An interesting thread
I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

Hantavirus is incredibly deadly. One of the only reasons that we don't have an issue with it, is we've never seen any outbreaks manage to evolve human-to-human transmission before. It's always been rodent-to-human contact. If we have H2H in Hantavirus that ship needs to be stranded at sea until every, single, person is cleared. Because that would make the previous pandemic look like childs play.

Context: The Andes strain of hantavirus has documented human-to-human transmission since the 1990s in South America, though rare. This is not unprecedented. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34515290/ mayoclinic.org/diseases-condi…

Europe must strengthen its defence to prevent a future Russian attack.   We need to strengthen our Southern flank.   I spoke to @Kathimerini_gr on the future of European defence and NATO.
