Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition Plans Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.

Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice.

We noticed.

ICE Has Taken More Kids Than Liam Ramos From Minnesota Schools Liam Ramos, 5, isn’t the only child in detention. Teachers and parents describe kids being hunted by federal agents.

Really crazy to hear Lyons keep saying ICE agents in MN are simply carrying out targeted, intelligence-driven enforcement operations.

ICE is literally circling elementary schools in this Minneapolis suburb every day, looking for brown and Black children to nab. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

agentless resistance to ideas is an editorial choice

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Something to keep in mind the next time the city tries to repurpose parking and drivers complain that every last car is necessary at all times. The storm was two weeks ago.

Epstein is like the evil Forrest Gump, somehow present and responsible for every terrible thing of the last twenty years.

it’s genuinely reassuring to me that this is the most miserable and paranoid person in the entire world

the owner just spent 75 million on a film that opened with a 7 million take

Minimizing the window where I read about how our world is a joke and we're at the mercy of megalomaniacal evil perverts. Logging on to the work zoom. "Heyyyy I'm good! How are you?"

Putting on my suit and tie and going on America Erwache to describe a 234 year old basic requirement of the constitution for lawful searches and seizures as a “nonstarter.”

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes."

After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

the answer is that jennings performance of smug dishonesty reliably generates viral clips, so they continue to have him on even though he is a shameless liar

the federal government is arresting journalists not only without a warrant but after being explicitly denied a warrant

i wonder what our freedom of speech warriors like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have to say about this

so the government’s been sitting on these files without arresting anyone because all their biggest donors are in it huh

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there

when democratic politicians respond to the assault on Minneapolis with "we must REFORM ICE, they need more TRAINING" I recall the very recent past: holding all three branches they increased funding, did no reforms, then ran for a second term on shit like this

This, to me, is the defining cycle of the Trump era — Trump does horrible shit. Everyone hates it. Leak to the press that it’s other people making these terrible decisions. Let press report that Trump doesn’t approve of these decisions. Get positive headlines. Start doing horrible shit again

State, federal officials offer starkly different accounts of Minneapolis shooting The killing of a Minneapolis man — captured on videos — deepened a growing rift between state and federal officials, who offered starkly different accounts.

Washington Post, Everyone Else Offer Starkly Different Opinions On Whether Washington Post Is A Piece Of Shit

When they lie this obviously & shamelessly about their murder victim, a neighbour who was helping his neighbours and was attacked for it, when there’s video EVERYWHERE showing the ridiculousness of their lie, then you know for sure that they’re lying about literally EVERYTHING they say.

Everything.

What's the plan, Chuck? I run a fake news website. You're the Senate Minority Leader. What's the plan?

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street

These are executions.

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason
