Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

New: Apple banned an app that simply archived videos of ICE abuses. Rather than other apps that record ICE official's real-time location, Eyes Up is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." Videos from TikTok etc. Every submission manually reviewed

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

According to Google's AI yesterday...
'For the Rapture, a snack like trail mix, jerky, or hardtack is best, offering a long shelf life and portability, according to a Lee's Market Jerky blog, which also suggests canned goods and bouillon cubes for sustenance during extended periods.'

Our work is not done…

πŸ“Œ Sinclair Broadcast Group is still refusing to air Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its ABC affiliates nationwide.

Folks, you know what to do.

Google Sinclair-owned networks and channels in your city and act accordingly.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

"In case you haven't noticed, GOOGLE has eliminated its primary search portal for climate and environmental news.
The entire tech world is buckling to Trump, largely because they need more energy to power their AI and cybercurrency data farms."

How do we fight this?

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down. The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a β€œdeep state” probe in early 2025.

Wow.

Not at all surprising, but wow.

Blatant corruption is perfectly fine (encouraged, even) in this administration.

I’ve waited months for this book from the library.
That’s a good thing imo. That means there’s many people interested in understanding tyranny.
I just hope their intentions are for good.
Of course I will purchase a copy to support the author, now that he’s living in Canada.

Brad Sherman’s entire career summed up in one word: Present. That’s how he votesβ€”cowardly, spineless, cozying up to power instead of fighting for our freedoms or our district. The Valley deserves better. #CD32 #ChrisAhuja #Ahuja #AhujaCongress2026
