ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Before March 20! Important for our Alberta loved ones who depend on AISH, who’ll have $200/ month diverted from them to the UCP government in July if ADAP isn’t stopped.

Pam Bondi is planning on getting this rule passed before anyone pays attention. Basically gives immunity to all her minions by blocking any other investigation into her illegal actions. Please comment before April 6, unless you are okay with this. www.regulations.gov/document/DOJ...

These are some of the cast members for my first children’s book! It’s based on one of my favourite Palestinian folktales.

Hey.

Tell people when they do good job.

When you like the stuff they make.

When you like the characters they’ve created.

The stories they’ve told.

Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.

Trust. They don’t.

Tell. Them.

The first mosque in Canada - and the second in N. America - is in Edmonton. Alberta has always been multicultural, built not just by white Christians, but its original Indigenous inhabitants and then by generations of courageous, adventurous, immigrants from around the world. That is our story.

Today is #SettlerSaturday, a day for allies on Turtle Island to give back to Indigenous folks whose land you occupy that was illegally settled. If 13 people gave $50, would be able to help a Native student mom feed her baby! $170/$800. Anything helps!

Hey, Canada. A queer indigenous Albertan, here. Alberta is Canada’s punchline. I get it, believe me. The UCP has 100% earned it.

But my trans relatives here are having a tough time, particularly our youth. The UCP has enabled discrimination for those so inclined. That’s taking a toll. 1/2
