Cory Doctorow does a terrific job of explaining why all these devices are being chip-enabled in his book, "Enshittification". It has little to do with ease of use and everything to do with the new intellectual property clause.

Excellent news from Hungary! Congratulations!
Fuck that motherfucker

The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…

If the ID I use to drive and fly, it’s not enough to vote, that’s voter suppression and a poll tax

Check this out. The DOJ redacted a conversation showing Trump never threw Epstein out of Mar a Lago.
Let them eat cake. Or crabs.
TCM is airing Gaslight tonight. Excellent programming choice, and says it all.
Oz is on record as a genocide denier.
Oz is an avowed genocide denier.
Following their journey has been the one ray of light in this darkest of times. Grateful for their sacrifice
I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.
WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
Her job is to fabricate 2020 foreign election interference to justify trump seizing voting machines in upcoming elections, and justify the nationalization of elections so he can control them.

Greed.
Strong showing of showings, i guess they meant to say. Sure can't mean audiences, even with the desperate ticket giveaways.

This is a must read!
I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down
BYE BYE FREEDOM OF SPEECH !
