Por: Maya Tinajero, editora de Skyline

Después de que la empresa alerta al FBI, se descubre que los responsables son agentes de inteligencia artificial. Al leer esto, quizá te preguntes de qué película de ciencia ficción saqué esta entrada. La verdad es que esta historia no es inventada: ocurrió el verano pasado en una empresa llamada Hugging Face.

OPINION: National Legislation of AI is Already Overdue 
October 18, 2026

By: Maya Tinajero, Skyline Editor  

ALPINE – An artificial intelligence tech community is attacked by an unknown hacker who escaped a testing simulation, stole data, and was able to perform other unauthorized activities over several days. When the company alerted the FBI, the hackers' identities were revealed to be AI-powered agents. Reading this, you may be wondering what science fiction film I have pulled this lead from, but the truth is that this story was not invented; rather, it is a real event that took place last summer at a company called Hugging Face.

OPINIÓN: Por qué debería preocuparte el veto de Trump a la prensa 
September 29, 2026

Por: Maya Tinajero, editora de Skyline 

Traducido por: Gloria Delgado Gonzalez, traductora de Skyline  

PHOENIX – El 18 de septiembre, el presidente Trump decidió prohibir el acceso a la Casa Blanca a tres medios de comunicación. En otra de sus habituales arremetidas contra las “noticias falsas”, acusó a CNN, Politico y MSNOW de difundir “ficción y mentiras”. Una semana después, un juez bloqueó ese veto infantil y ordenó restablecer el acceso de los tres medios. Aunque en este caso la medida quedó sin efecto rápidamente, cualquier ataque a la libertad de prensa debería ponernos en alerta a todos los estadounidenses.

OPINION: Why Trump’s Media Ban Should Scare You 
September 29, 2026

By: Maya Tinajero, Skyline Editor

PHOENIX – On Sept. 18, President Trump decided to ban three media outlets from the White House. The president spewing his usual “fake news” rant accused CNN, Politico, and MSNOW of reporting “fiction and lies.” A judge blocked the president’s infantile ban after a week, stating that all three media outlets should be reinstated. While restoration came swiftly in this case, any attack on the freedom of the press is something all Americans should be cautious about.

OPINIÓN: El problema con la prohibición del THC en Texas 
September 7, 2026

Por: Maya Tinajero, editora de Skyline 

Traducido por: Gloria Delgado Gonzalez, Traductora de Skyline 

ALPINE – La legalidad de la marihuana siempre ha sido un tema polémico y ampliamente debatido en el estado de Texas. Sin embargo, una nueva ley, de la Corte Suprema de Texas, ha impuesto restricciones aún más estrictas sobre los productos con THC derivados del cáñamo. Como expresó James Talarico, candidato demócrata al Senado de Estados Unidos, durante un debate de Representantes en 2025: “Nosotros (los políticos estatales) ahora les estamos diciendo a adultos plenamente capaces cómo deben vivir sus vidas. Este es el Estado niñera en su peor expresión”.

ALPINE – The legality of marijuana has always been a contentious topic of debate within the state of Texas. However, a new bill made possible by a ruling from the Texas Supreme Court has created even more intense restrictions on hemp-derived THC products. As said by Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico in a 2025 House debate, “We (state politicians) are now telling full grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst.”

OPINION: Are ICE Officers Homegrown Terrorists?
November 3, 2025

By: Maya Tinajero, Skyline Desk-Chief

ALPINE – The Federal Bureau of Investigation describes domestic terrorism as “violent criminal acts committed by individuals and or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.” Given this definition, and the increase in violence perpetuated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers-one might conclude that homegrown terrorist is an appropriate label for ICE agents.
