Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

EA's Attempt to Use AI for Game Development Backfiring Horribly Staffers at major video game developer Electronic Arts told Business Insider, their employer's attempts to use AI are backfiring.

"It's a problem when the dogs won't eat the dog food."

Did you know our Food Stamps program was designed and built by a woman? Isabelle M. Kelley helped launch it under JFK in 1961 and made sure it became permanent law in 1964 — changing food security in America forever.

Food IS a human right! No one should go hungry.

AI Is Pushing Climate Goals Out of Reach, New Reports Say - Inside Climate News Without a big increase in investment in renewable energy globally, humanity will not limit global temperature rise to 2 degrees Celsius, but much of the data center boom is powered by fossil fuels.

Of course the tech bros say the opposite.

"With power- and water-hungry data centers forecasted to come online at staggering speeds to serve tech companies’ seemingly bottomless appetite for AI infrastructure, utilities have turned to fossil fuels to help meet the explosion in demand for power."

JD Vance: "The suffering is going to get a lot worse."

YouTube video by MSNBC Kash Patel slammed FBI jets—then used one for date night

WATCH: FBI Director Kash Patel—who once railed against officials’ private jet use—is facing backlash after reportedly using a government plane to watch his country singer girlfriend sing the National Anthem at a pro-wrestling event.

Sounds amazing!

Congrats to Labour for pausing their persecution of a minority but only because they've found out their corporate pals disapprove #progressive

Speaker Johnson: “If we had a contingency fund for SNAP we’d use it.”

REALITY: There is one, Trump literally just deleted it off the USDA site 🤷🏼

right wing cruelty and modern cooking ignorance have produced people melting down that you can buy dijon mustard with food stamps.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

when I worked in community services in the US, I helped fill out SNAP applications for people who'd once had successful careers as lawyers, healthcare professionals, bankers. The jaws of poverty can snap shut on anyone.

Rep. Clay Higgins: There are 22 million American households receiving SNAP benefits for groceries, at $4200 per year on average. Try to get your head wrapped around how many pantries you can stock with $4200 dollars in properly shopped groceries. Any American who has been receiving $4200 dollars per year of free groceries and does NOT have at least 1 month of groceries stocked should never again receive SNAP, because wow, stop smoking crack.

Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food.

He ends his tweet with "stop smoking crack."

Yes I know it’s the Cato Institute but when they’re right I’m gonna support that. This is the correct take.

Everyone who makes money on housing understands that strict zoning and politicized permitting is good for landlords and bad for tenants.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Minnesota cop who fabricated a sex-trafficking ring won't be held accountable The officer made up information and lied multiple times under oath but the government says she has federal immunity.

This case underscores how SCOTUS made it impossible to hold immigration cops accountable for the abuses you see in all those videos.

A federal task force cop manufactured evidence to put an innocent woman behind bars for two years. Because of SCOTUS-conferred immunity, the case never got to a jury.

This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 10/30/2025 and available online at https://federalregister.gov/d/2025-19702, and on https://govinfo.gov DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY: Removal of the Automatic Extension of Employment Authorization Documents AGENCY: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Department of Homeland Security (DHS). ACTION: Interim final rule (“IFR”) with request for comments. ______________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY: This IFR amends DHS regulations to end the practice of automatically extending the validity of employment authorization documents (Forms I-766 or EADs) for aliens who have timely filed an application to renew their EAD in certain employment authorization categories. The purpose of this change is to prioritize the proper vetting and screening of aliens before granting a new period of employment authorization and/or a new EAD. This IFR does not impact the validity of EADs that were automatically extended prior to [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER] or which are otherwise automatically extended by law or Federal Register notice.

NEW: The Trump admin just ended the practice of automatically extending work permits when people file to renew them — meaning that if USCIS takes too long to process a renewal the applicant loses their authorization to work legally.

The interim final rule applies to renewals filed after tomorrow.

ICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street To Verify Citizenship Videos on social media show officers from ICE and CBP using facial recognition technology on people in the field. One expert described the practice as “pure dystopian creep.”

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo

“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”

“Alright, we just got to verify that”

Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?

TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

Note: This is me — I asked this question.

You’ll hear me say “yes you have” here — because Johnson was already *directly asked* about one of these instances (when the Presbyterian minister was shot in the head with a pepper ball) in one of earlier shutdown press conferences.

Most people who actually live next to immigrants are just fine. It’s the people never exposed to anyone different from them who get angriest — and to whom Vance is appealing here.

Also, Vance is a sociopathic ghoul whose nativist bullshit would have prevented his own children from existing.

NEWS: Federal prosecutors indict Kat Abughazaleh, congressional candidate, county board candidate Cat Sharp and Dem committeeman Michael Rabbitt over September Broadview protest

Breaking on MSNBC:

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

Once again, how is the public supposed to respond to people who are obscuring their identity and presenting themselves in a way that isn’t markedly different than what might be in an average closet?

It is asking for trouble. The public should have a reasonable way to identify law enforcement.

Example 5 Million of why we should never accept claims from law enforcement without intense skepticism.

They do not provide “just the facts” (fun, relevant side-note: know who was a big proponent of and advisor to Dragnet? The LAPD).

Their claims OFTEN crumble, esp when self-serving.

Ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson said in a statement “Mobile Fortify is a dangerous tool in the hands of ICE, and it puts American citizens at risk of detention and even deportation.” He also said “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship—including a birth certificate—if the app says the person is an alien. ICE using a mobile biometrics app in ways its developers at CBP never intended or tested is a frightening, repugnant, and unconstitutional attack on Americans’ rights and freedoms.”

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people
