How ICE Plans to Put 8,500 Immigrants in This Georgia Warehouse Experts say the initial designs raise health, safety and security concerns.

Super annoying that in addition to being a terrific fiction writer and world-class activist, Cory is randomly one of the best tech journalists of all time.

Had to doublecheck the date on this

Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy.

We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.

Indonesia will ban social media for children under 16, communication minister says Indonesia will ban social media for children under 16, the communication and digital affairs minister says.

This awful idea (mandating age restrictions on online access and in many cases social media in particular) is spreading around the world like wildfire, the plague -- pick your metaphor for bad thing spreading widely and quickly.

“War-a-Lago”

He doesn't care.

Murdering whomever you want whenever and wherever you want isn’t a “warrior mindset.” It’s psychopathic.

"XXXXX clarified that when she previously said TRUMP struck
her after she bit him on the penis, she provided further details that he, 'pulled (her] hair and punched (her] on the side of (her] head.'"
This happened "when she was approximately 13 to 15 years old."

So true. Iran is almost four times the square mileage of Iraq, and has a much better armed/trained military than Iraq or Afghanistan had.

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping

In other words: DOJ tried to extricate itself from litigation it never should've had to defend in the first place, but the Mad King threw a hissy fit and ordered them back into the fight.

ironically, repealing Section 230 would make it so that idiots like Dick Durbin can't post their stupid ideas on Bluesky

The literal definition of being in over one’s head.

Iran could’ve detonated a nuclear bomb in a U.S. city and it wouldn’t have ended our nation’s existence.

Trump is working feverishly to end our democratic republic.

Only because you’ve made them so.

The final power grab to end free and fair elections.

I take this to mean he never had any candidates at all.

Be wary. For the next few weeks likely every mugging and car accident is going to have suspected ties to Iran.

The Government Just Made it Harder to See What Spy Tech it Buys On Wednesday, the government stopped supporting FPDS.gov, an indispensable resource for finding what ICE, the FBI, and every other agency is buying. Its replacement site completely sucks.

The U.S. government on Wednesday shut down a vital resource for keeping tabs on what powerful spying tools its agencies are buying, making it harder to reliably find out how agencies including ICE are spending taxpayers’ dollars. www.404media.co/the-governm...

The Trump regime has made the United Stares into a rogue nation.

It’s up to us as Americans to put a fast, decisive end to this. Nobody else is coming to save us.

Lionel Hutz from the simpsons editing a business card which reads "PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST - NO MORE FOREVER WAR" to read "PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST? NO, MORE FOREVER WAR"

It’s wrong to vaporize school children even if Congress votes to approve it.

The lack of consequences for Caribbean boat murders and the operation against Venezuela brought us to this point. Trump pushed the envelope and paid no price for it. (In fact, elected officials and the press were mesmerized by the Maduro raid.)

Many of us said this would happen and it did.
