NEWS: D.C. Councilmember Brooke Pinto, joined by her 12 colleagues, has sent a letter to Chief Pamela Smith asking for answers on MPD's cooperation with federal agents on law enforcement/immigration enforcement. She says answers would help "ensure accountability & bolster public trust."
People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.
It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.
That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

Trump hasn’t “chickened out” on his tariffs. He is — at this very second — inflicting great harm on American workers, families and the entire U.S. economy.

there's a distinct information quality asymmetry. it's much, much easier to churn out easily digestible disinformation than it is to research and create something that strives toward truth.
ICE went to the home of a 61-year-old man with poor health and after his family informed ICE agents that they needed a warrant signed by a judge, dozens of ICE agents instead showed up in an armored vehicle with a battering ram and flash grenades and took him by force.
Two tweets from David Lynch in 2010. The first says “This weekend I’m going to find out if I’m connected to the moon. The second, three days later, says “I’m pretty sure I’m connected to the moon.”

Excited to see the eviction defense guide I wrote for @51st.news translated into Amharic, one of DC's most widely spoken languages, and published by @ethiopique202.bsky.social. Hope it's helpful to folks.
The last major health facility in northern Gaza has been put out of service, the World Health Organization has said, and its director detained according to Gaza officials after an Israeli military operation targeting sites near the Kamal Adwan hospital.

as an aside, it’s funny that there are so many cops and buyers who are just gun collecting. for people who are planning for the end times it seems unwise to live on a lightly defended weapons cache.

love how the guardian doesn't mention that the only reason this law exists is to punish trans and intersex people.

I feel like tonight is a good time to introduce my American followers to three Ukrainian concepts you will need to scream at each other tomorrow. You have, after all, entered the Eastern European stage of your national development. Welcome to the world of hanba, zrada, and peremoha.
Remember how angry certain people got if you said Israel
deliberately targeted Al-Aqsa Hospital last fall?

for years scholars wondered how many toddlers you can run over with tanks before your country is considered "Bad" . probably about 4 million
remembering maybe one of the last pre-covid media things I went to and someone saying to someone “so how’s your billionaire?” “oh fine he mostly leaves us alone, how’s yours” and it sinking in that this was the state of the jobs that there were
hugely discrediting to conspiracy theorists that there’s an actual foreign-born billionaire doing all this while *overtly* attempting to control what you see online, buy an election, run software in your car, and put microchips in your brain and they’re like 🤷♂️
FIVE "MOVES" OF MISLEADING ELECTION RUMORS FALSE EVIDENCE — The rumor is fabricated or manipulated evidence, such as false statements, deceptively edited content, and synthetic (AI-generated) content. MISINTERPRETED EVIDENCE — The rumor is based on real evidence that has been mischaracterized or misinterpreted to create a false impression. OMITTED REMEDIES — The rumor highlights real or perceived issues with election administration but overlooks or obscures remedies, such as downstream security measures, to imply an untrustworthy process or results. EXAGGERATED IMPACT — The rumor exaggerates the impact of real or perceived issues with election adminstration to imply an untrustworthy process or results. FALSE ATTRIBUTED INTENT — The rumor falsely attributes intention to real or perceived issues with election administration to imply voter or election fraud.
The 2024 election is upon us. Millions of ballots have already been cast. Mail-in ballots are being returned. Early voting is taking place. And dozens of rumors are spreading. So, let me re-introduce our framework for diagnosing how many “evidence-based” rumors mislead:
The top right corner has the Remora House Logo. Central image of red and black tent with the words "Tents Needed!" superimposed. Caption reads "Temps are dropping and evictions are ongoing! Please help us get tents out to folks who need them!"
We need 10 new tents for folks on our route! As it starts to get colder and the city continues to evict people, shelter is super important. If able, please purchase tents off our wishlist so we can get them out to the folks who need them.

true! and if we could all just abandon the idea that there is a "state-of-nature" that we need to return to, the discourse would be much more useful.
