Does that mean ICE will only be chasing those who entered since 2021?

But, even if you make lots of money, you still need to buy health insurance and there are no other options. So you pay the full price and don't get a subsidy. WTF

I’ve never forgotten this picture from 2016 and how it completely reshaped my understanding of how the media covers protests.

What could possibly go wrong

“.. raising questions over whether [Trump] might compile a master list of personal information on Americans that could give him untold surveillance power.”

Exactly! He achieved exactly what he intended. He has removed all oversight of his government dealings so he can do whatever he wants. He consolidated taxpayer data from government data stores so he can go make trillions now.

Data is the new gold 💰 and now he has it. And we can't get it back.

LLMs poses a new risk for misinformation since weights can be arbitrarily tuned/system prompts easily fucked with by one individual

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

this is the kind of stuff you talk about having when you’re staying over at your eight year old best friend’s house for the first time

Crazy how long this conversation has been going on

Slightly more seriously. It's crazy how the entire supposed constitutional theory of Trump 2.0 is that all power is vested in this single individual, down to every last tiny detail and whenever you ask him he's like "I have no idea; ask the lawyers"

DOGE Aide Who Helped Gut CFPB Was Warned About Potential Conflicts of Interest Before he helped fire most Consumer Financial Protection Bureau staffers, DOGE’s Gavin Kliger was warned about his investments and advised to not take any actions that could benefit him personally, ac...

A 25-year-old DOGE bro at the CFPB held $715,000 in stocks that ethics lawyers told him he wasn’t allowed to own while working there — then DOGE fired those ethics lawyers.

This is corruption.
Always call it out.

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

The plan is to break the parks, claim they must be privatized, take them from the American people and give them to their friends.

New from @pamherd.bsky.social & me: A DOGEr is now running the National Park Service.

They were already short of employees to manage record crowds. DOGE has cut 13% and wants to cut 30%.

Oh.

"This is about whether we have functional constitutional government in this country. If the IRS can go after you because of what you think or what you believe or what you do, we'd no longer live in a free country.“

Truth Social launches scheme to profit from Trump's tariff policies A jaw-dropping conflict of interest.

1. Truth Social, Trump's social media platform, announced an audacious scheme yesterday to profit from Trump's tariffs

Truth Social will offer actively-managed INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS composed of stocks in companies who benefit from Trump's policies

It's a jaw-dropping conflict of interest

there's so many layers of fraud and abuse in this story that "someone might have been trying to log into the NLRB's systems with a valid Doge username and password from russia" doesn't even make it into the first 5,000 words

I’ve never seen a tweet that more effectively communicates how we got to this current situation

This is UNREAL!!!! Once again, I found myself fact-checking something because it seemed too ludicrous to be true. Sadly, it is. And to think that these are the people my fellow Christians think should be in power. 💔

Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

Glad the Times is focusing on this. This is the throughline with most of DOGE. Beyond firing tons of people, playing culture warrior, the throughline everywhere is getting access to data and building cross-govt systems to link it together. data is power.

The scientists he fired don't want to make iPhones either.

Millions of Social Security recipients got erroneous messages that their payments stopped as computer systems keep glitching "You lose staff that have the institutional knowledge, and when something happens, you can’t recover, or it takes you a lot longer to recover."
