"[There are] two new currents of thought: the Jacksonians around Donald Trump and the Wokists, puritans without God.
We are currently witnessing an intensification of population movements in the USA. Election scholars find that many Americans are leaving the Woke regions and joining the Jacksonians. According to moving companies, their clients move from big cities to smaller ones where life is cheaper and more pleasant. However, they all note that their clients are increasingly citing a new motive: they are traveling to join part of their family. This explanation matches what Colin Woodard observed a decade ago: Americans are grouped by community of origin. Real estate developers are observing the proliferation of secure neighborhoods (Gated Communities). Their clients gather with people like them, having inherited the same culture and belonging to the same social class. Often, they are worried about the rise in insecurity and evoke a possible civil war."

Terrorist groups have a new tool in their social media toolbox – Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is being used by a rising generation of members of Hizbullah, Hamas, and Yemen's Ansar Allah Movement (Houthis) to win new supporters and followers. Pro-ISIS and pro-Al-Qaeda figures involved with these groups' online activity frequently discuss, on their closed encrypted platforms, how to best use AI. As one ISIS supporter recently exhorted, "In order to move forward in the future, we need to learn how to use the new technology."

Here we must talk about the secret of greatness. What is the secret of greatness? The secret of greatness is to be able to serve something greater than yourself. To do this, you first have to acknowledge that in the world there is something or some things that are greater than you, and then you must dedicate yourself to serving those greater things.
There are not many of these. You have your God, your country and your family. But if you do not do that, but instead you focus on your own greatness, thinking that you are smarter, more beautiful, more talented than most people, if you expend your energy on that, on communicating all that to others, then what you get is not greatness, but grandiosity.

We have a new A.I. danger. We are not used to meeting believable impostors online. A.I. can now mimic specific human voices, and compose text which mimics specific human thinking and writing styles. This threatens individual economic security; also national security.
An individual posing as U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reportedly used an AI-generated voice to call high-level officials in what appears to be an attempt to manipulate government officials to obtain access to information or accounts.
The unknown Rubio impostor has so far reportedly contacted at least five government officials: three foreign ministers, one U.S. governor, and one member of Congress, according to a State Department cable obtained by the Washington Post.
Authorities believe the imposter is likely trying to manipulate the high-end officials “with the goal of gaining access to information or accounts,” the July 3 cable sent by Rubio’s office to State Department employees said.
