UN PGA Annalena Baerbock: Statement for the Opening Ceremony of the Global Dialogue on AI Governance: "The UN was built for moments like this" (LINK) — 6 July 2026

— "Something with such power, with such profound implications for our economies, our social systems, our defence and therefore our peace and security — but especially, even in our homes, our food and our children's bedrooms-can only be meaningfully and safely managed together."

— "sinister uses of AI, such as deepfakes, [...] disproportionately target women and girls-with a reported 99% of deepfakes being sexual in nature, and 96% targeting women and girls."

— "Yet, there is good news as well… the potential of AI is a boon for the SDGs."

• In Bangladesh, [...] families receive early warnings of floods and storms from AI-powered systems delivered instantly to their smartphones. AI can save lives.
• In Kenya, [...] farmers receive detailed maps showing where and when to plant seeds to maximize their harvests.

— "Imagine if we used this power together, imagine the UN leveraging these tools."

• Imagine UNICEF reaching children in crisis with personalized learning.
• Imagine WHO detecting outbreaks before they become pandemics.
• Imagine, during this technological revolution… that this time, no country is left behind.

Daily Beast: Trump spirals over crowd size after delivering July 4 speech to empty seats (LINK) — 5 July 2026

— Trump's night had been derailed after thousands of attendees were evacuated from the National Mall as thunderstorms rolled in roughly three hours before the scheduled start of his speech. In his Sunday post, the 80-year-old president claimed that 422,000 people had gathered to hear his speech before severe weather hit. But 150,000 returned. Even by Trump's own estimates, the crowd would still fall short of the turnout for the 1976 Bicentennial, which The New York Times reported at the time drew roughly 500,000 people for the parade alone, according to Newsweek.
