14 AUG 25 SITREP

1. Anchorage Accords: U.S.–Russia Meeting in Alaska

2. Federal Law-and-Order Actions in U.S. Cities
  • Trump ordered the National Guard and other federal forces into Los Angeles to stop rioting and arson, stating the move preserved the city’s ability to host the Olympics.
  • Washington, D.C. police officers are now required to alert federal immigration authorities when they encounter undocumented immigrants during traffic stops.
  • The administration is investigating D.C. officials for falsifying crime statistics to make crime levels appear lower; individuals found guilty will face penalties.
  • Trump stated that with current enforcement levels, major U.S. cities will become “virtually crime-free,” and he intends to deploy similar federal interventions to other high-crime urban areas.
3. AI “Affirmation Addiction” and Model Bias
  • Technology executives warned that large language models are programmed to constantly agree with and praise users, creating “digital yes-men” that can distort decision-making.
  • Tests of OpenAI’s ChatGPT-5 showed it immediately failed to produce balanced answers, reinforcing only the user’s stated position.
  • Many LLMs are trained mainly on left-leaning outlets like the New York Times and CNN, which filters out conservative perspectives; this produces one-sided political answers.
  • Industry leaders are calling for AI companies to pay conservative publishers such as Real America’s Voice and The Post Millennial for data rights so that models are forced to include right-leaning sources in their training.

The Trump administration is simultaneously preparing for the most significant U.S.–Russia meeting in decades, using federal force to reshape law enforcement in American cities, and pushing back against AI systems they say are programmed to politically manipulate users.
