European Union flags flutter outside the EU Commission headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, on June 17, 2022. Photo: Reuters/Yves Herman Following an update earlier this month to xAI’s Grok chatbot which resulted in a wave of antisemitic and pro-Hitler responses to users on X/Twitter, the European Commission summoned representatives from billionaire Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company to a Tuesday meeting to explain themselves. The move comes after Italian parliament member Sandro Gozi urged for the Commission to begin a formal inquiry, as “the case raises serious concerns about compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA) as well as the governance of generative AI in the Union’s digital space.” Poland’s Minister of Digital Affairs Krzysztof Gawkowski had also called for the Commission to take action and said that the Polish government would consider banning the app. Due to the size of the X platform, the site falls under the European Union’s DSA which requires transparency about operations. Musk’s app already faces multiple investigations by the Commission. On Wednesday, following the initial antisemitic statements from Grok, X’s Linda Yaccarino, the company’s CEO, announced her resignation. On Monday, xAI announced a $200 million deal to provide Grok to the US military. The company stated

Maria Lysaker | UTSA Athletics Track & Field/Cross Country July 14, 2025 SAN ANTONIO – UTSA Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Aaron Fox announced on Monday that the Roadrunners will add local jumper John Williams III to the 2025-26 Roadrunners roster, coming to UTSA from across town at Byron P. Steele High II School. "It’s exciting to be able to add top-notch local talent to our always-strong jump squad,” Fox said. “John is a talented jumper who has a strong growth progression and has performed well on the state and national stages.” Williams competed in his senior season of horizontal jumps at Cibolo’s Steele High, capturing the District 29-6A, Area and Region IV-6A titles in the triple jump, hitting a career-best 15.47m (50-9.25) measurement during the regional meet at San Antonio’s Heroes Stadium in April – breaking the city, area and regional records in the event on his path to a bronze-medal performance at the UIL 6A State Track and Field Championships in Austin. Registering the third-longest jump in Texas and 10th in the nation, his performances this spring earned an invitation to The Jump Games in Ocean Springs, Mississippi in late May, where he garnered third in the

Maybe it got lost in the shuffle yesterday, but Chris Gotterup won the Scottish Open. I don't want to say he chased down Rory or anything like that, he just outplayed everyone on Sunday. There was a chance, early, it looked like it was going to be Rory's to win. Then the worst possible thing happened to the field. Chris Gotterup got put on the clock:  Then it was over. A smooth 4-under on Sunday and 2-stroke win. That's how you get a spot into The Open:  That's how you lead to this sort of celebration:  But more importantly, this is how you make $1.5 (roughly) dollars and celebrate correctly. You take to Twitter and wait for that direct deposit to hit  Won all of America over with that. Why? Because you should be celebrating the $1.5 million payday. That's a life-changing win, sure, but also you just won that sort of money. Not to mention he's showing personality. We don't get personality from golfers, unless it's them bitching about something more often than not. Gotterup just wants his money, simple and to the point. So shout out Rutgers, Oklahoma can try and claim him, but Chris Gotterup is a

Bakers rally outside Tehran Governor’s Office against the Nanino system – July 13, 2025 While Iran’s regime attempts to project an image of stability, the reality on the streets reveals a regime systematically crushing its people’s livelihoods while violently suppressing any dissent. The recent convergence of widespread economic protests and raw fury over state-sanctioned killings demonstrates that these are not isolated incidents of discontent. Rather, they are the interconnected symptoms of a collapsing theocracy, fueling a unified, nationwide rejection of the ruling establishment in its entirety. The regime’s policies are simultaneously creating an economic tinderbox and murdering its youth. Instead of instilling fear, this dual-front assault is galvanizing the Iranian people, turning every local protest into a potential flashpoint for a larger uprising. The Economic Tinderbox: A Deliberate War on Livelihoods More images of protest rally by bakers in Tehran, protesting the destructive results of the state-run Nanino bread and floud management system.#IranProtests pic.twitter.com/eBSO51gSYf — People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) (@Mojahedineng) July 13, 2025 Across Iran, the regime’s economic policies are provoking open defiance. In the capital, Tehran, bakers held protests on July 12, outraged by the dysfunctional “Nanino” subsidy system and new, arbitrary regulations requiring every individual worker
