The Daily Mail has the story on how Team Ramaswamy found Amy Acton's estranged mother, who was non compos mentis, gave her some groceries and a bottle of gin, and then gave her a script to read in front of cameras. The whole story is more degenerate than you would ever have thought possible.

The best possible interpretation is that a company with 190,820 employees and a $4.40 trillion market cap refuses to do basic quality control.
But the more likely answer is that feckless Google executives have enthusiastically embraced corruption-fueled fascism at every possible turn.

Google AI Search Refuses To Say Who Won The 2020 Election
It's either massive quality control incompetence or the coddling of fascism, neither of which are a great look.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir?
TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with?
REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations
TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Per a database of discrimination complaints obtained by @propublica.org , Trump's Department of Education is actively ignoring reports of rape and assault on campuses so they can instead focus on transgender athletes. Their obsession with trans people is actively putting women and girls in danger.
