To dodge federal rule, immigrants moved from Florida jails — and sometimes moved right back Four Guatemalan siblings, detained as undocumented immigrants after a traffic stop, spent several days last week at the Orange County Jail before being picked up in a van and driven around for hour…

“Prisoners suspected of being in this country illegally have been picked up at the Orange County Jail, driven around for hours — then returned to the jail with a new inmate number and a re-set on the time they can be held in local custody.”

there it is

my god, it’s so much worse than I imagined

hmmmm… I guess I see it more as a fash-adjacent prioritization of a shallow aesthetic of nostalgia without any real respect paid to the history of the music they were referencing

The release of GPT5 is giving off strong Apple Vision Pro vibes.

There was like a full year where critics of VR/AR/XR headsets were cautioned “just wait for Apple to make its move. Whatever they release will be a step-change. The present is just prologue.”

jesus christ that’s terrifying

that’s deep man

Some of y'all haven’t read Searle, and it shows

I don’t think Will’s really wrong here. yes it works, at least for some things. and OF COURSE PEOPLE ARE THREATENED. the tech lords building this stuff are pretty explicit that they want to replace every non-billionaire human with a machine so the can just be rid of us

whether it works is one thing, what it will be used for is another. Clearly it works for some things, although not in the way a lot of people think. also clear is that the people building it are horrible techno-fash who hope they can replace every worker with a machine

I know I’ve said it a lot but I’m going to say it again - this is coming from a place of weakness and it’s a mistake to read it as anything other than a sign that they know they can’t win this fight

I'm just struck by this because man, nothing says "your state is failing" quite like "no one appears to be in charge of dealing with rotting human body parts strewn around"

There is something extra undignified about having the *Defense Secretary* be this type of whiny grievance culture shithead

i think we have under-theorized and under-prepared for this moment, because people think fascism is still RISING

fascism is HERE. it is ASCENDANT. and now it is wondering how much you, personally, would cost to get onboard

This is the most infuriatingly witless talking point. No history is “erased” by the removal of a monument. What he means is “we want to celebrate and honor racism,” but that sounds bad, so we’re supposed to pretend this illiterate goon has some deep interest in the study of history.

Remember when Vice President Harris bought a few quality cooking items at a French cookery store with her own money and legacy media melted down?

J.D. Vance literally used the Army Corps of Engineers to manipulate a public waterway, so he’d have an easier time kayaking and it’s a blip on the radar.

The VA’s unilateral termination of union contracts for ~360k workers represents a loss of 2.5% OF ALL UNION MEMBERS IN AMERICA.
I’m not sure what it will take for the labor movement to get into crisis mode, but the crisis is here.

It seems that Tim Apple is taking the company in a different direction.

Tim Cook Slammed For 'Disgusting' Gift-Giving Meeting With Trump The Apple CEO presented the president with a “unique” piece of glass held by 24-karat gold during a celebratory event Wednesday in the Oval Office.

Watching tech CEOs who were afraid to take a side in 2024 grovel and bleat before Trump to game a tariffs concession like some game show is absolutely pathetic and I hope Cook’s comms team is losing sleep over how their reputation is getting hit.

Spots like this, full of devastation and wreckage, are still all around Asheville nearly a year since Helene.

The marketing blitz is meant to cover up that we are still a disaster zone, not least because there's far more focus on bringing tourists back instead of helping locals survive. #avlnews

i just can't believe there's not a mainstream media outlet that consistently calls a lie a lie (not in america, anyway) - kinda hard to hold government accountable when the media is so compliant.

ICE contractor locked an immigrant and her baby at an O’Hare hotel for five days Valentina Galvis' detention at a hotel raises questions about the types of facilities being turned into de facto detention centers as the Trump administration ramps up immigration detention.

A Chicago woman went to immigration court. Her case was dismissed; she and her infant were taken by federal agents who turned her over to contractor MVM. They spent five days confined at the Sonesta O'Hare hotel without communication to the outside world.

Somebody take Facebook Grandpa’s Sharpie away.

This is precisely *who they're being made for*

Maybe we should have the FBI and DHS on this instead of rounding up construction workers and food cart vendors
