A major Pizza Hut franchisee has filed a lawsuit against the restaurant chain seeking $100 million in damages, claiming that a mandated AI system for kitchen management has caused significant operational failures and financial losses across its restaurant locations. The Register reports that Chaac Pizza Northeast, which operates approximately 111 Pizza Hut locations across New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Washington DC, and Pennsylvania, filed a complaint in the Business Court of Texas earlier this month. The lawsuit accuses Pizza Hut of breaching its franchise agreement by forcing Chaac to adopt restaurant management AI from Dragontail, a provider of AI-powered food delivery…

Friday on MS NOW’s “The Beat,” Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA) said the Department of Justice’s so-called anti-weaponization fund was the “crossing of the Rubicon for some Republicans.” Co-host Antonia Hylton said, “I want your take on what’s happened in the nation’s Capital over the last several days, Republicans, seemingly in a sort of open revolt, unable to get Trump’s desired, DHS additional money through because of this so-called old slush fund and the just outrage that it has caused across the country. And I wonder for you, what you see is the moment where the dam sort of broke politically or…

In a live debate over whether America should bomb Iran, one side brought facts and history; the other brought interruptions, patronizing lectures, and recycled empire talking points. On Tuesday, I participated in a debate on whether the US should be bombing Iran with Naomi Wolf—a feminist author, journalist, former Rhodes Scholar, and CEO of Daily Clout. To say that the interaction was a disappointment is putting it mildly. The tactics she employed are tried-and-true methods of the old dying legacy media. Her attempts to use logical fallacies and ad hominem attacks against me revealed that she was either ill-prepared for the discussion or…

Fashion designer Jeremy Scott earned a huge round of applause from graduates after ripping up a generic commencement speech scripted by generative artificial intelligence at the Kansas City Art Institute on May 16. Scott started his speech reading from his AI-created script which congratulated students on reaching their “threshold of a new beginning,” and telling them their “power is limitless.” But then he paused, according to Business Insider. “Sounds kind of clichéd, right? Doesn’t sound authentic, does it? Sounds like you’ve heard it before, right? It’s because it’s AI,” he told the graduating class before him. Then he ripped the…

Hollywood director Christopher Nolan is being ripped by a Greek-interest publication for not having any Greek actors in his adaptation of The Odyssey. Nolan’s film is based on the 2,800-year-old epic poem told by Homer, which follows the fantastic journey of the heroic king of Ithaca, Odysseus. It is one of the oldest known works of literature in history and was composed by a Greek man — in Greek, for his fellow Greeks. Yet Nolan’s film, toasted by Hollywood access media for its “diversity,” doesn’t have any Greeks in it at all. And the Greek City Times — an Australia-based news site…

Friday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) called President Donald Trump the “grifter-in-chief.” Cooper asked, “Are you surprised by some of the Republicans pushing back on this fund?” Blumenthal said, “Not really, Anderson, because this kind of graft and it really is graft on a scale that is unprecedented in our history. We had scandals with Harding and Grant and Nixon, but none of them involved the scale and scope, the audacity and arrogance of this graft.” Cooper asked, “And you see this fund as part of graft, as part of corruption?” Blumenthal said, “It is part of a through…

On Friday on MS NOW’s “Deadline,” Trump critic Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) claimed the “bottom is falling out” for President Donald Trump in his ability to control Republican lawmakers. Raskin said, “There are over a dozen Republicans who have spoken out about this, and I’m starting to think that the bottom is falling out for Donald Trump in terms of his ability to micromanage and control everybody in the Republican caucus. I don’t think this can stand. I think the public clamor against it and the rapidly growing opposition within Congress means that we’re going to be able to stop it,…

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) expressed disappointment Sunday morning that Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) lost his primary last week. Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Khanna said of his reaction: “Sadness, disappointment. Thomas is a real friend. He’s a good man.” Khanna and Massie are very much on opposite ends of the classic left-right ideological spectrum, but they came together to introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act, requiring the release of files in the case of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. They also joined together to attempt, unsuccessfully, to block U.S. involvement in Iran. Those efforts, as well as other votes,…
