If one person with green eyes said they spoke for the entire population of the world on how green eyed people lived, you'd think that would be wild.
Apply this same thinking to marginalized populations speaking about their lives. No one person speaks for universal truths for all of their label.
We've all seen the videos of ICE pulling people out of their cars, shooting citizens with pepper balls, and even worse killing Americans in the streets.
This is not normal. And it cannot continue.
ICE needs commonsense guardrails NOW.
The Far Right / Christian Nationalist MAGA workaround is going to be the story that Trump was beset by evil spirits and led astray by satanic Jews. If you spend any time monitoring that poisonous world you’ve already heard the foundation of this lie being set in place.
Apparently Sam Altman also wrote a manifesto (on top of Marc Andreessens a while back). Are there others?
Genuine question: why do we think the tech bros are doing this? Which need does this fulfill for them?
Major military contractor and surveillance giant Palantir has posted a chilling manifesto that calls for tech companies to play a larger role in a dystopian future where imperialist powers are unleashed and Americans are increasingly subject to the whims of the surveillance state.
The Justice Department has subpoenaed several witnesses to testify before a federal grand jury in Washington as part of its investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan, three people familiar with the matter said.
If it weren't for the corruption, cruelty, and incompetence, this administration would have nothing left.

You've never seen human anatomy like this before.
Using a particle accelerator, the Human Organ Atlas is producing 3D scans of our organs in unprecedented detail! You can look through different layers of tissue and even zoom in on the cells for the heart, lungs, eyes, kidneys, and more.
And it’s written by a Harvard Law professor who is not Adrian Vermeule💀
What is the German word for when all three of these women cabinet secretaries absolutely deserved to get fired and yet pretty much all the men cabinet secretaries and FBI director drunks do too. And yet .... 🤔
Here’s last night’s story about prediction markets – platforms where you can bet on basically anything, from the weather to the war in Iran. The story's also about why AI seems to be obsessed with shirtless old guys! To a lesser degree, but worth mentioning, if you’re into that. youtu.be/ZN4njIQcSR4
Jeffries: "Republicans have spent tens of million trying to convince the people of Virginia that President Obama and Gov. Spanberger are urging a 'no' vote. That's a stone cold lie. The 'no' vote position is Donald Trump's position, as is being evidenced tonight. He's been trying to hide it."
Weird how they never do this in areas where Trump won!
DOJ Office of Civil Rights seem very focused on districts with a lot of Black voters.
Have you seen this man?
ICE Agent Gregory Morgan Jr. is wanted for felony assault by Hennepin County, MN and is a fugitive from justice
DOB: 02/22/1991
Last known address:
2334 JAMESON ST
TEMPLE HILLS, MD 20748
We uncovered a vast surveillance empire whose untraceable tech has been used to target people in more than 100 countries, including the US. It has operated under the radar for decades.
Until now.
Trump's Dept of Justice has seized ballots in AZ and GA. Bondi's out as AG, but Harmeet Dillion, who wants to replace her, wants to grab MI ballots.
They say it's for review, but we know better.
It's to push conspiracies to deceive voters and deny results they don't like.

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.
State AGs must step in and block it.
Where we decide to place social shame and collective sanction is a power we must seize from shitty oligarchs.
Know how I know the Senior Service College Task Force is unserious?
- Its leader had multiple affairs and a child out of wedlock while in uniform.
- One member is known for filming screeds from a van in the NC woods
- Another member is Thomas Anderson

Hey babe your fave AI company is besties with the military and the NSA
"The military is now broadening its use of Anthropic's tools while simultaneously arguing in court that using those tools threatens U.S. national security."

Michigan’s attorney general is rejecting an effort by the US Justice Department to obtain ballots and other voting materials from the Detroit area, a target of the Trump administration’s efforts to probe elections in states that the president falsely claims he won in 2020. https://cnn.it/423eS6p
DOJ is being weaponized against our elections AND Trump's opponents. They are just getting started.
The Iranian-flagged cargo ship ignored “repeated warnings” because the U.S. blockade is an illegal and illegitimate act of war.
This is arguably piracy.
yep: one of the reasons i want to nip the "stabbed in the back" myth now is that it gets Americans an excuse to avoid reining in the boys in Tampa in CENTCOM
bastards
