Bridget recaps the week in tech news with friend of the pod Francesca Fiorentini, journalist and host of the hilariously smart podcast The Bitchuation Room. Podcast megastar and staunch Trump supporter Theo Von made headlines for a post calling what's happening in Gaza genocide: https://www.newsweek.com/theo-von-gaza-video-donald-trump-middle-east-2075637 Congress's budget bill prohibits states from regulating AI: https://www.techpolicy.press/us-house-passes-10year-moratorium-on-state-ai-laws/ Elon Musk built an emissions-spewing gas power plant in the middle of a Black neighborhood: https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/19/climate/xai-musk-memphis-turbines-pollution Back in 2020, Verizon was a vocal supporter of DEI, but now they've dropped all DEI policies to please their new Trumpian overlords: https://www.npr.org/2025/05/19/nx-s1-5402863/verizon-fcc-frontier-dei-trump The Chicago Sun-Tribune published a list of summer books. It was generated by AI and most of the books are fake.
