Somalia State Probing Turkey-Linked Cargo Seized Off Its Coast

Bloomberg4 days ago
Somalia's semi-autonomous Puntland region acknowledged it's holding a vessel full of military equipment until it can work out who the cargo belongs to.
The federal government on Wednesday accused Puntland authorities of seizing MV Sea World with a shipment destined for a Turkish military training facility in the capital, Mogadishu. Puntland said traders in the city had claimed ownership and that Turkey's ambassador had also reached out.

Vinay Prasad Is a Bernie Sanders Acolyte in MAHA Drag

Meet Vinay Prasad, a young disciple of Bernie Sanders who ranks as one of the most powerful officials in the federal government. He determines whether patients get access to many life-saving medicines. Or not. Think of him as a one-man death panel. Dr. Prasad was named by Marty Makary, the Food and Drug Administration commissioner, as head of the agency's biologics division in May, and last month as its chief medical and scientific officer. More on why he was tapped to these posts later. But it isn't an exaggeration to say that Dr. Prasad wields more power than Anthony Fauci ever did at the National Institutes of Health.

DOGE has built an AI tool to slash federal regulations

The Department of Government Efficiency hopes to use a new AI tool to eliminate half of the federal government's regulatory mandates, according to The Washington Post. Citing a PowerPoint presentation dated July 1, The Post reports that the DOGE AI Deregulation Decision Tool is supposed to analyze around 200,000 federal regulations and identify the ones that are no longer required by law, with the goal of eliminating half those regulations by the first anniversary of President Donald Trump's return to office. It seems this work is already underway, with the presentation declaring the tool has already been used to review regulations at the Department of Housing and Urban Development and to write '100% of deregulations' Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. A White House spokesperson told The Post that 'no single plan has been approved or greenlit' but praised the DOGE team as 'the best and brightest in the business.' This is just the latest AI tool developed by DOGE (led in the early months of the Trump administration by Elon Musk), including one reportedly error-prone tool that would hallucinate the size of Veterans Affairs contracts.
