More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. Theyโ€™ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally โ€” almost certainly incomplete โ€” includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

There are at least 170 incidents where ICE held US citizens against their will.
This includes 20 children, including two with cancer. That includes four who were held for weeks with their undocumented mother and without access to the familyโ€™s attorney until a congresswoman intervened.

Ten percent of Gazans have been killed or wounded โ€” mostly women, children, & the elderly.

The U.S. has sent $22 billion taxpayer dollars to facilitate Netanyahu's slaughter.

This ceasefire must hold, the hostages must be freed, aid must flow and this horrific war must end.

The Sad Spectacle of American Comedians Selling Out in Saudi Arabia It turns out that edgy free-speech warriors will scuttle their principles for a check from a brutal autocratic regime.

A President threatening to jail a sitting Governor is unacceptable and is the opposite of what this country stands for and was founded on. I stand with Gov. Pritzker and for the rights of each state across our great nation.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Children are starving in Gaza because of Israeli government policies. Hundreds of people from around the world organized a civilian flotilla to try to deliver food. Israel arrested them.

The United States must demand the immediate release of all detained Americans.

An arcade cabinet for Hover Tank Arcade next to a standing upside down triangle with alternating LED colors along the triangle's edge.

Local game developers brought some of our projects to the Art Sanctuary in Louisville a little over a week ago! I had a great time, and was able to showcase a new project I'm working on with an interactive LED Triangle.

I'm looking forward to continue to work on it into whatever it may become!

I am no constitutional scholar, but I can't help but feel that "the President gets to dictate what every university can teach and what every television station should broadcast" is closer to what the founding fathers were worried about when it comes to free speech than trigger warnings on syllabi.

Thanks! It was a free video game showcase for games made in Kentucky/surrounding area, as well for developers at the school. There were games from all genres/styles- definitely had more difficulty with my classic turn based roguelike game, but kids had fun with hover tank arcade!

REQUEST:

BlueSky, Iโ€™m working on something and could use your help.

If you support me and/or trans military members I would love for you to post here a pic of you with a sign/note/text overlay which says, โ€œI Stand With Youโ€.

My goal is to make a giant collague of support in this difficult time.

For so many who sacrificed and lent their skills and service to the country in the military, only to have their service deemed unsatisfactory by a man who never served another in his life, is a betrayal of everything we did and gave.

Trump presidential orders target law firms. Here's how some lawyers say that threatens the rule of law. In recent weeks, President Trump has signed orders targeting several law firms. Some lawyers warn that the president's assault on the legal profession threatens the rule of law itself.

It was nearly impossible to get anyone on camera for this story because of the fear now running through our system of justice. https://cbsn.ws/4lWzcPz

People who are looking for a way to fight Trump, I have it for you in one name: Kilmar Abrego-Garcia.

He's the poor guy who got pulled off the street, declared a gang member for no reason, then sent off to that hell-hole in El Salvador.

Fight for him because this case will unravel everything. ๐Ÿงต

Murphy: Six Weeks In, This White House Is On Its Way To Being The Most Corrupt In U.S. History
YouTube video by Senator Chris Murphy Murphy: Six Weeks In, This White House Is On Its Way To Being The Most Corrupt In U.S. History

I'd like to bring this video to your attention.

It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.
