Pro-EU Ruling Party Wins Armenia Election In Landslide, Kremlin Blasts Western Interference
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's party has won parliamentary elections, according to Monday's result, after a vote which has signified the small Caucasus nation's major pro-Western shift.
His Civil Contract party secured 49.81 percent of the vote, while the main opposition party Strong Armenia - seen as pro-Moscow, finished a distant second with 23.29 percent. National turnout in the country of three million people was close to 60%.
Pashinyan claimed a "historic victory that will ensure Armenia's eternity and development" while also vowing to "continue the course of rapprochement with the West" - but while balancing the pursuit of positive relations with Russia.

'The Best Solution Is To Murder Him In His Sleep': AI Can Learn Violent Tendencies From Each Other
Authored by Owen Hughes via Live Science,
Large language models (LLMs) are secretly teaching each other unwanted habits through seemingly benign training data, scientists say.
The phenomenon, known as "subliminal learning," occurs when a pretrained "teacher" artificial intelligence (AI) model is used to generate the training data for a smaller, "student" model.

In a study published April 15 in the journal Nature, scientists found that teacher models can pass learned traits onto students even when all data semantically related to that trait had been filtered out. These can range from the innocuous - such as a love of owls - to the markedly darker, including mariticide and the elimination of humanity.
The researchers said their study highlights the inheren...

Support For Germany's AfD 'Firewall' Plummets As Voters Call To Bring Party In From The Cold
Via Remix News,
Germany's long-running "firewall" that sees the country's legacy parties exclude cooperation with the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) is moving further out of step with a large section of the electorate, with new polling showing voters now evenly divided over the governing CDU's refusal to work with the nationalist party.

According to the latest Deutschlandtrend survey by Infratest Dimap for ARD and Welt, 47 percent of Germans now say the CDU's exclusion of cooperation with the AfD is not right, while the same proportion say it is right. That marks a significant shift since September 2024, with opposition to the stance rising by 12 poin...

Electric Bills Could Be 2026 Election Shocker
Authored by John Haughey via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),
If all politics is local, as former House Speaker Tip O'Neill said in tying politicians' fortunes to constituents' pocketbooks, then a voter's electricity bill is about as local as an issue can get, landing on kitchen tables every month.

With electricity costs spiking for many of the nation's 133 million households, this local issue could determine whether Republicans retain control of Congress or Democrats seize one or both chambers in November's midterm elections.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, average residential electricity rates increased nationwide nearly 13 percent from April 2020 to April 2025. Since President Donald Trump returned to office in January 2025, they've increased 6 percent.
Electricity prices are expected to increase, on average nationwide, by another 6 perce...
