if you spend any significant amount of time on X the everything app, your brain is being cooked

it is absolutely wild that random people on the internet have kept thousands and thousands of minnesota families housed this month

my friend and followers helped pay around maybe 130-140 people’s rent in the past 6 days? like. so much of it was just you guys. it is insane to me, this platform.

this is up to 5,335,376. wow.

let me tell you i am very serious when i say im making a list of what small businesses have and haven’t done over the last two months that will affect my purchasing decisions for the rest of my life

"The population of CBP agents & officers who have been arrested would make it roughly the nation’s fourth largest police department — equal to the size of the entire Philadelphia police."

Accountability for ICE and CBP However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

“US law enforcement has never experienced a scandal as big, far-reaching, destructive, & as far-lasting as the wave of corruption & criminality in CBP & Border Patrol since 2005. It’s a story that too much of the public still doesn’t know & too many policymakers don’t understand.”

Next time someone asks you about energy and land use, maybe remind them that the ~35 million acres that currently grow corn for ethanol in the US could produce ~15 PWh per year of electricity from solar photovoltaics. That's ~3.5 times more than *total annual generation from all US power plants*.

Ocean Beach this morning… just wow!!

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

"There followed a sudden crash of bicycles as total strangers rode into the path of the pursuing German, knocking him off his bicycle and allowing Leesha to escape."

"'Like a flash I got an idea and began to whistle the first four notes of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony in C minor.

This was a whistle we used in the underground: if there was a friend nearby he would answer with the second part of the phrase: "bum bum bum bum"

the persistence of the resisters in their belief in the righteousness of their cause led them to rebuild the structures each time and continue to develop the membership to renew the fight against occupation so that the flames of resistance could never be extinguished."

"One of the most admirable features of the resistance in all its forms- armed, civilian, and passive- rests in the sheer resilience of those who took part.

The resisters were determined to thwart the designs of the Germans, to harass them, to deny them the opportunity to ever exert total control..

"Indeed, the most prevalent feeling among those who resisted was the discovery of the sheer variety of people who worked together during the war yet who in peacetime would have had no reason to be in contact with each other."

"Relatively few lived a continuous underground existence and the majority participated in normal life while taking part in resistance activities on occasion as and when needed.

'We were really a multinational thing.'"

"Those who took part in the resistance were not supermen and superwomen but were drawn from all walks of life.

Some of the most heroic acts of resistance were performed by people who would not have been expected- even by themselves- to be heroes of any kind at all."

ICE’s Facial Recognition App Misidentified a Woman. Twice In testimony from a CBP official obtained by 404 Media, the official described how Mobile Fortify returned two different names after scanning a woman's face during an immigration raid. ICE has said the app's results are a “definitive” determination of someone's immigration status.

“It is sickening that ICE is using this flawed app and unacceptable invasion of biometric privacy to supposedly determine whether someone is undocumented and deport them or even worse,” EFF’s @cooperq.com told @404Media.co. www.404media.co/ices-facial...

Report: ICE Using Palantir Tool That Feeds On Medicaid Data ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about.

ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest, 404 Media reports. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about.

Worth every second

At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

*Everyone has stories like this*

I dig the "tailor coat."

Noem says hundreds more ICE agents are expected to arrive in Minneapolis today and tomorrow. Please be prepared. Set up a network, check on neighbors regularly, know your rights, and have an action plan in place and ready.

I saw these amazing 3D printed whistles.

"Maybe it's the world, the world gone blind
They'll trade ya truth for a lie, an eye for an eye
Little birdie told me, 'Nobody's born, nobody born bad'
And if you don't see the smoke, you won't see what's coming"

Stay safe everyone.
