It’s wild, absolutely wild, how for EVERY. SINGLE. CITY. Trump wants to militarize I can post data showing how crime is plummeting in all of them without any federal invasion…

… and the press KEEPS stenographing the naked bad-faith claims about “fighting crime!” in the headlines.

Infuriating.

Homeland Security Dept. Says It Hasn’t Kept Text Message Data Since April

The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts.

Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.

I strongly think more people need to be writing about the culture shift toward anti-autonomy and anti-humanism and how that plays out in the entwined cultures of technology, fascism, and the religious right, but also its cultivation in popular culture more broadly

People keep asking me what Land Back looks like. Imma hold this up as a great example.

A square white graphic. On the left is a stylized ink illustration of a kestrel falcon in black on white, without outline just the black marks on its wings and face, drawn from behind. His wings are partly open and his head is turned to the right. In his beak is an anemone poppy in red ink with a green stem. On the right is the title "Keep hope alive: a gaza giving circle" in ink-effect font. The text says "We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support." In the bottom right corner in green text is the link tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle.

Today for the giving circle, we highlight my beloved friend, H, who's a young dad of two toddlers. He texted recently to ask for prayers for his family—"we will wait for death."

Don't let them wait for death. Give, then act. 0/2500 by next Saturday: chuffed.org/project/hope...

*When they asked for a reason - required by law - they were not given any. They refused. Then they were fired.

Americans can do their thing in their own country, but we should isolate their discourses and politics to their dysfunctional country, just as we should work to push their tech companies out of our jurisdictions too.
