At some point, as artificial intelligence expands across the world, there's going to be a point when AI turns into genuine stupidity. This might be that point:
A judge is suspected of refusing to do the job for which he is paid, and utilizing artificial intelligence instead of legal analysis, to write a court opinion.
According to a report and Law and Crime, the lawyers in the case were "bewildered" by the statements from Henry Wingate.
He's a federal judge in Mississippi.
His order, from just a week ago, granted a request for a temporary restraining order from education groups, such as the Mississippi Association of Educators, that stops the state government from using several pats of a new law to remove "diversity, equity and inclusion" ideologies.
But the ruling contained "apparent indisputable factual inaccuracies."
The report suggested the judge may have been using artificial intelligence to write the comments.
A report at Not the Bee explained that the order later was corrected because it had "multiple errors, which the defendants noted in an unopposed motion to clarify."
For example, the judge got the names of the plaintiffs wrong. And he got the names of the defendants wrong. And he recited "allegations" that do not appear in the complaint at issue. And they are not supported by evidence. And he inserted language in the disputed law that does not appear in the original. And he included testimony from four people whose statements were not in the record.
The defendants "respectfully request the court take appropriate steps to clarify or correct the following apparent and indisputable factual inaccuracies."
Not the Bee commented, "This isn't the first time this has happened, and it definitely won't be the last: To put this in plain English, a black federal judge (likely) had AI help write an order that temporarily stopped laws passed by the state legislature and governor that would get rid of DEI programs."
The report continued, "I know legalese is boring and nerdy, but think about the implications here. The residents of a state elected politicians to represent them in the legislature. Those politicians enacted the will of the people by writing a bill that defunds and removes race-based 'equity' programs meant to discriminate against residents with European heritage as payback for past injustices against non-Europeans. That bill was then signed and passed into law by the governor.
"Then, at the finish line, a federal judge (a Reagan appointee, no less!) temporarily stops the bill from being implemented. This could very well be in his constitutional authority, but he (or more likely his clerks) decided they can't be bothered to do their jobs and explain themselves. Instead, they (allegedly) had a computer language model make-up fake rulings out of thin air. Are you starting to see how damaging this could be?"

President Donald Trump on Wednesday said California Democrat Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi "should be investigated" for insider trading of stocks.
His remarks came as he was asked a question about legislation introduced by Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., that bans members of Congress from owning or trading individual stocks, with it extending to the president and vice president. It's dubbed the PELOSI Act, an acronym for Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments.
"I like it conceptually," Trump began noting he would have to look into it more.
"You know, Nancy Pelosi became rich by having inside information," Trump continued. "She made a fortune with her husband and I think that's disgraceful."
"What I do think is Nancy Pelosi should be investigated. She has the highest return of anybody, practically, in the history of Wall Street, save a few. How did that happen?
"She knows exactly what's gonna happen, what's gonna be announced. She buys stock and then the stock goes up after the announcement's made. And she ought to be investigated."
Trump echoed sentiments expressed by popular podcaster Joe Rogan on Monday, who indicated: "Nancy Pelosi's the head witch."
"There's like a system and they all get funded, and they all make sure that there's this kind of crooked system that will allow someone like Nancy Pelosi who – what does she make like $200,000 a year? She's worth $150 million! How the f*** did that happen?" Rogan wondered.
"If insider trading is illegal, how the f*** is it legal for her husband to make all these purchases of stock right before these giant deals came out that she negotiated? And then he gets this windfall and they get insanely wealthy! Over and over and over again!
"And there's no investigation into it, there's no talking about it. It's f***ing wild, man, It's wild sh**. And they think Putin's a mobster. What are YOU?"

Vice President JD Vance went "scorched earth" on the legacy news media Monday for refusing to pursue the Jeffrey Epstein story during years while George W. Bush and Barack Obama were presidents.
Now, he explained, since President Donald Trump has ordered the Department of Justice to go "full transparency," "that's a criticism" of Trump.
Trump has ordered the DOJ to release all "credible" information about the sex offender who was convicted but given a light sentence, then died when he was jailed awaiting further charges.
With his remote, private island and his "Lolita Express" airplane there long have been suspicions he actively provided underage girls to a long list of clients, including politicians and celebrities.
Prince Andrew, for example, was caught up in the scandal and ultimately reached a settlement with a woman who accused him of assaulting her when she was underage.
Vance has asked whether the Trump administration was shielding anyone in the investigation, and erupted.
"We're not shielding anything. The president has directed the attorney general to release all credible information and frankly to go and find additional credible information related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. For four years, under Joe Biden's Department of Justice, the media didn't give a damn about the Epstein files or about the Epstein case for literally 20 years. … 20 years, you had Obama and George W. Bush's Department of Justice go easy on this guy. They didn't fully investigate the case. … They didn't show any curiosity about the case. And now Donald J. Trump is asking his Department of Justice to show full transparency. And somehow that's a criticism of Donald J. Trump and not Barack Obama and George W. Bush."
The Daily Caller News Foundation said Vance, speaking in Canton, Ohio, noted the absence of any reporter interest in the case for years.
"If you want to criticize the people who aren't showing full transparency, you ought to go after the administrations that went easy on Jeffrey Epstein, the administrations that concealed this case for 20 years and the administrations that failed to show full transparency," the vice president said.
Trump has pointed out that if there was any information that would damage him, the administration of Joe Biden would have used it already. "Those files were run by these people, they were run by my enemy. If there was anything in there, they would've used them for the election."

At least seven people have been arrested on charges related to what authorities have described as a huge Alabama child sex trafficking ring.
A report from WJTV explained the Bibb County Sheriff Jody Wade said, "I've been in law enforcement for 33 years, and this is absolutely the most horrible thing I've ever seen when it comes to the victimization of children.
"I know God's forgiveness is boundless. But if there was a limit to it, I think we reached it."
The suspects could have made up to $1,000 a night victimizing children, the report said, citing law enforcement documentation there were at least 10 victims from 3 years old to 15.
Arrested were William Chase McElroy, Dalton Terrell, Andres Trejo-Velazquez, Timothy St. John, Rebecca Brewer, Ricky Terrell and Sara Terrell, and pending charges allege rape, sodomy, sexual abuse, sexual torture, human trafficking and kidnapping, the report noted.
"No child deserves this. That's the most horrible thing you can do. The power and control of it, the stealing the innocence of a child and the horrible victimizations they went through with these monsters," Wade said.
The report said Wade believes the violence to have ties to the Sureños gang, which he said is mostly funded through child sex trafficking.
Wade explained in the report the investigation began in February when the Alabama Department of Human Resources got allegations of child abuse. Sheriff's officers eventually have the children in a bunker behind a home.
Wade described the confinement of the children. "It depends on what appointment time the offenders had. Sometimes, the children would be there, tied to a pole that was there, bound to a bed that was there, or a chair that was there. Sometimes, there would be multiple people that would come by and victimize these children on a nightly basis."
The sheriff said his hope was that the abuse would end up a "blurry memory" for the youngest victims, but he said for the older children, "They'll carry this vividly for the rest of their lives. … You can't heal from this, but you can move on as best as you can."

The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee has updated its gender policies to comply with President Trump's executive order barring men from competing in women's sports.
While the committee's 27-page updated "Athletic Safety Policy," does not mention "transgender" athletes, it includes language saying it will comply with Trump's order, EO 14201.
"The USOPC will continue to collaborate with various stakeholders with oversight responsibilities, e.g., IOC, IPC, NGBs, to ensure that women have a fair and safe competition environment consistent with Executive Order 14201 and the Ted Stevens Olympic & Amateur Sports Act," the document says.
According to NBC News, U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee CEO Sarah Hirshland and President Gene Sykes acknowledged the update in a letter to the Team USA community.
"As a federally chartered organization, we have an obligation to comply with federal expectations," they said. "The guidance we've received aligns with the Ted Stevens Act, reinforcing our mandated responsibility to promote athlete safety and competitive fairness."
The updated policy "emphasizes the importance of ensuring fair and safe competition environments for women," with all national governing bodies required to update their policies to align with the updated guidelines, they added.
The National Women's Law Center was quick to denounce the committee's move. "Without any process or clarity about its decision, the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee has let Trump rewrite its rules in a cruel effort to deny transgender women the opportunity to participate," said a press release from the group.

A federal judge has concluded, apparently, that abortion industry giant Planned Parenthood has a constitutional right to have tax money.
A report at Fox News reveals a leftist judge chosen for her lifetime appointment by abortion-promoting Barack Obama has temporarily blocked the administration of President Donald Trump from stopping the flow of tax money, through Medicaid, to the abortionists.
Congress called for those funds to be stripped from Planned Parenthood's corporate coffers, and Trump signed the bill, making it the law of the land.
Judge Indira Talwani, whose leftist activism runs deep, has given the abortion industry a preliminary injunction claiming the bill "unconstitutionally" punishes Planned Parenthood groups that do not abort unborn children.
Talwani's order came in a lawsuit brought by Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion business.
A commentary by Olivia Summers, senior litigation counsel with the American Center for Law and Justice, explained the partial injunction "twisted the First Amendment into a shield for abortion providers—protecting not just their speech, but their funding. Congress has every right to decide that taxpayer dollars should not flow to abortion providers or their affiliates."
Her warning was that, "This ruling effectively grants Planned Parenthood a constitutional entitlement to federal funds."
She continued, "This decision carves out a dangerous privilege—one that elevates abortion providers above every other grantee, creating a special class of government-sponsored speakers. It lays the groundwork for permanent entrenchment of abortion groups within the federal funding landscape, shielding them from the political accountability that applies to everyone else.
"Once again, the abortion distortion is at work—where normal rules of law are suspended simply because abortion is involved. A routine federal funding decision becomes a First Amendment violation. A restriction on one of the most powerful and politically connected lobbying networks in America somehow becomes an equal protection problem. The court treats Planned Parenthood not as the pro-abortion advocacy juggernaut that it is, but as a fragile association of speakers whose funding must be constitutionally guaranteed."
WND previously reported about the judge, who was determined by commentator Nathan Stone at the Federalist to be delivering "judicial terrorism."
"Indira Talwani, an Obama-appointed judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, ushered in the next chapter of judicial supremacy when she blocked the provisions of the 'big beautiful bill' which deprived Planned Parenthood and its affiliate organizations of Medicaid funds," Stone explained. "If Judge Talwani had 'found' those provisions 'unconstitutional,' or if she had found the whole reconciliation package 'illegal'" it would be another example of judicial usurpation. Business as usual. But she didn't do either. Talwani's temporary restraining order commands that the executive ignore the law and keep shoveling the Benjamins to feed abortions. As Dan McLaughlin said on X, 'You can't argue with the judge's reasoning because there isn't any.'"
The order from Talwani is just part of a campaign on the part of judges at the entry level courts to the federal judiciary of opposing President Donald Trump's plans and agendas, even if delivered through ordinary and accepted channels like a congressional bill and a signature by a president.
The agenda already has prompted the Supreme Court to say those judges are exercising powers they don't have by repeatedly demanding they have their way on policies and practices of the executive branch, instead of letting the president run that branch, as the Constitution provides.
"The surface irony of this would be comedy gold in a movie. For the last 10 years, the left's bread and butter has been to paint Trump, his allies, his voters, and the Republican Party as fascists intent on destroying 'our democracy.' But, when the sacrament of abortion is in jeopardy, it does a 180 and orders the president to completely ignore a law that was duly passed and signed — textbook fascist behavior," the commentary said.
Further, it said, Talwani's writing "does not even try to pretend to be anything other than naked power that commands lawlessness for the sake of killing babies. Separation of powers, the rule of law, the legislative power, and the very ability of the American people to enact change through their duly elected representatives — one of the fundamental markers of self-governance — are all done away with a flick of Talwani's pen."
"Make no mistake: Judge Talwani is a legal terrorist. Her TRO is the judicial equivalent of an IED, which was supposed to destroy the administration by either disobeying the law or disobeying the judiciary. It's not about the country or an alternate vision. Now, it is only about destruction — pure and sweet."

Hakeem Jeffries, a Democrat representing New York in Congress, has found himself facing accusations he's been interfering with a federal criminal case over his political agenda against a law-enforcement nominee picked by President Donald Trump.
It is Jeffries who is the target of requests by multiple legal activists to the Ethics Committee for an investigation.
The development came about because he actively lobbied federal judges in the district to remove acting U.S. Attorney Alina Habba from her post there.
Habba was appointed temporarily while her nomination as a permanent replacement moves through the approval process, but she is allowed to stay as an acting official for only a few months unless the judges in the district approve.
Jeffries was enraged at Habba because she charged Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J., with obstructing Homeland Security agents during an altercation at an immigration facility in Newark on May 9.
McIver is heading for trial in November.
A report from Fox News explains Jeffries has made claims that Habba isn't qualified because she indicted McIver "for doing her job."
It was the Article III Project that wrote to the House Ethics committee with the explanation that Jeffries "improperly insert[ed] himself into a criminal proceeding."
"This is clear corruption by House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries," the charge said.
Jeffries discounted his interference in the case.
The Ethics Committee may or may not choose to act on Article III Project's letter. The group did not file a formal complaint with the Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC), which would have been required to study the complaint before giving a formal recommendation to the Ethics Committee, the report explained.
Attorney General Pam Bondi appointed Habba to the position in an acting capacity and her nomination for the post permanently has been delayed by Democrats in the Senate who want to attack and delay the Trump agenda.
Fifteen of the 17 judges in the district owe their jobs to Democrats.
"A House member – particularly the House Democratic leader – who disagrees with the merits of a pending criminal case abuses his official position when he attempts to strong-arm federal judges to corruptly prejudice the ongoing criminal proceeding by firing the U.S. attorney for the purely political reason of protecting a partisan House colleague," charged the complaint.
McIver and two other members of Congress claimed to be doing "oversight" when they physically clashed with federal law enforcement officers.
WND reported McIver physically handled a federal agent at the time.
The situation is just a symptom, more or less, of a bigger agenda by the Democrats, according to constitutional expert Jonathan Turley, a professor at George Washington University who has not only testified before Congress as an expert on the nation's founding law, but has represented members in constitutional disputes in court.
He explained the "new defense" being used by Democrats, from city council to Congress, is that "their official duties include obstructing the official functions of the federal government."
"The latest claimant of this license is Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ), who was charged with assaulting, resisting, and impeding law enforcement officers during a protest at Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey. McIver is shown on video forcing her way into an ICE facility and striking and shoving agents in her path," he said.
He said officials were able to subdue the incursion quickly.
But the messaging from McIver was that she could do what for other citizens would be "trespass and assault" because of her "legislative oversight" privileges as a member of Congress.
Her comments were a reprise of what other Democrats already have demanded.
"Rep. Alexandria Ocacio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) declared 'You lay a finger on someone – on Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the representatives that were there – you lay a finger on them, we're going to have a problem,'" the report noted.
Jeffries has "ominously warned the federal government that Democrats would bring down the house if it tried to charge McIver."
He said, "It's a red line. They know better than to go down that road."
The fault in making the "oversight" claim is that the law does not allow even members of Congress to have unauthorized access to secure federal facilities. Members of Congress can subpoena the executive branch, or get a court order, but they "do not have immunity from criminal laws in unilaterally forcing their way into any federal office or agency."

On the six-month anniversary of his inauguration, President Donald Trump celebrated his success, noting his poll numbers have increased despite calls from both Republicans and Democrats to release the files of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
"My Poll Numbers within the Republican Party, and MAGA, have gone up, significantly, since the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax was exposed by the Radical Left Democrats and, just plain 'troublemakers,'" Trump said on Truth Social.
"They have hit 90%, 92%, 93%, and 95%, in various polls, and are all Republican Party records.
"The General Election numbers are my highest, EVER! People like Strong Borders, and all of the many other things I have done. GOD BLESS AMERICA. MAGA!"
In a separate message, Trump indicated: "Wow, time flies! Today is that Sixth Month Anniversary of my Second Term. Importantly, it's being hailed as one of the most consequential periods of any President.
"In other words, we got a lot of good and great things done, including ending numerous wars of Countries not related to us other than through Trade and/or, in certain cases, friendship.
"Six months is not a long time to have totally revived a major Country. 'One year ago our Country was DEAD, with almost no hope of revival. Today the USA is the 'hottest' and most respected Country anywhere in the World.' Happy Anniversary!!!"
Regarding the Epstein case, Trump on Saturday said: "I have asked the Justice Department to release all Grand Jury testimony with respect to Jeffrey Epstein, subject only to Court Approval.
"With that being said, and even if the Court gave its full and unwavering approval, nothing will be good enough for the troublemakers and radical left lunatics making the request. It will always be more, more, more. MAGA!"

If nothing else, Colorado officials have proven their persistence in their agenda to control everyone's speech.
First, following the demands of a homosexual Gov. Jared Polis and a Democrat-majority state House and Senate, they tried to force a Christian baker to endorse same-sex marriage. Millions of tax dollars later they not only lost, but were scolded by the U.S. Supreme Court for their "hostility" to Christianity.
They tried the same stunt, under the guise of "non-discrimination," with a web designer. Again the Supreme Court knocked the state down.
They're also arguing for their right to control others' speech in another case now before the Supreme Court, involving state-mandated censorship of counselors.
Now state officials have adopted a scheme that would require a bookstore to express ideas its owners don't believe, and it's already in the courts.
Again.
It is a report in Complete Colorado that describes the dilemma facing Born Again Used Books, a Christian bookstore in Colorado Springs.
Its owners had to file a lawsuit against the state because of a leftist "gender expression" law new from Democrats in the statehouse.
It controls speech in that it requires businesses to address customers according to their "preferred pronouns," meaning that bookstore workers have to call a woman "he" and a man "she" if that's what they want.
The store, with help from the ADF, has sued over the state scheme to censor speech and punish individuals who are guilty of "misgendering" someone, that is, calling them by an accurate pronoun they don't like.
It's all under the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act, which has been used in those other schemes that already have been torpedoed repeatedly by the Supreme Court.
The lawsuit, in federal court, names as defendants state officials Aubrey Sullivan, Sergio Raudel Cordova, Geta Asfar, Mayuko Fieweger, Daniel S. Ward, Jade Rose Kelly, Eric Artis and Phil Weiser.
"The government has no need or right to force Americans to profess ideological views they oppose," the court filing charges. "Our pluralistic country is big enough and sturdy enough to allow people of good faith to express different views, even when the government disagrees. The Constitution demands it. And Colorado is better for it."
Store owners Eric and Sara Smith told Complete Colorado of their concern about compromising their values, or facing steep legal punishments for exercising their First Amendment rights.
"When the truth gets lost in the discussion, it's hard to have a discussion," Sara Smith told the publication.
The state also tried recently to force a Christian summer camp for children to allow boys in the facilities for girls, but abruptly reversed course when confronted with concerns about the state's violation of religious rights.
The bookstore is seeking a court ruling to stop the state's enforcement of its CADA against the store, an order declaring the state is violating the Constitution, a monetary award to cover the expenses of the fight, and that the court retain jurisdiction to see that the state follows the law.

Under Joe Biden's open borders policy, which, effectively invited millions and millions of illegal aliens to come and break into the United States, then obtain health care and other benefits, they came.
Millions and millions.
But President Donald Trump campaigned on his plan to shut the border and deport illegal aliens, especially criminal illegal aliens.
And his plan is working.
According to a report from the Daily Mail, a key data point has come out of the Darien Gap, an expanse of rainforest with steep ravines and swamps through which 31,000 migrants, en route to America, came during June of 2024.
During June of 2025, under Trump's border security plan, that number was 10.
The report explained more than 520,000 migrants crossed through that remote section heading to America in 2023. In 2024 it was 300,000.
Last year, 55 migrants died during their crossings, and about 180 children were abandoned, and rescued.
The publication cited reports from the Spanish language report efe.com.
That report said normalcy slowly is returning to Bajo Chiquito, the town where migrants arrive after their crossings.
"Bajo Chiquito has transitioned from a bustling hub to a quiet community. With a population of around 400, this indigenous village on the banks of the Tuquesa River received over 2,000 migrants daily during peak migration periods," efe.com reported.
Where once stood makeshift lodgings, food stalls and clothing shops, there now are empty sites.
The result comes partly from the decision by Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino to close jungle trails and reach an agreement with the United States for deportation flights.
"According to Panamanian authorities, only 2,927 migrants crossed the Darién into North America in the first half of this year," the report said. Most were in January, 2,229, just before President Trump took office.
White House spokesman Abigail Jackson told the Mail, "Word of the United States' secure border has spread so far around the world, that migrants aren't even willing to make the dangerous journey to get here because they know they'll be turned away."
She noted over the last two months, Border Patrol officers have released zero illegal aliens into the United States.
