Elon Musk says that no one died because of his demolition of USAID, and that "Kristof is lying through his teeth." So here I invite him to join me on a visit to Africa to see for himself: https://t.co/TVEoFX8gzj
Sexual violence by Israeli forces against Palestinians in detention is both a systematic and a decades-old practice — a well understood dynamic that is being put in the spotlight this week in a new report exclusively provided to The Intercept from the Palestinian Feminist Collective, a group of Palestinian and Arab feminist researchers and organizers.
His name was George Stinney Jr. Let us never forget his name nor his face, and let us remember that he was the victim of one of the most appalling injustices in history simply because of the color of his skin.
@BradeauxNBA Goes far beyond defense... Smart is a mentality monster who will be instrumental in helping develop the young ones. Ultimate glue guy for a team in desperate need of one. Absolutely love him.
Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel.
Who also founded PayPal with Elon Musk.
And sits on the board of Meta.
And built surveillance tools for the CIA.
And ICE.
And the US military.
The NHS gave them a £330 million contract in 2023.
Then gave their staff unlimited access to identifiable patient data.
Before it’s even anonymised.
The NHS’s own internal briefing said this risked “loss of public confidence.”
They did it anyway.
Palantir is also the cloud support for the UK’s nuclear weapons system. 
Over 200,000 people signed petitions to scrap the contract.
NHS staff refused to use the platform on ethical grounds.
MPs called it unacceptable.
The House of Commons is reviewing it.
The platform is also 10 times slower than the system it replaced.
The UK is banning social media for children to protect their data.
Scanning phones to protect children.
Banning romantic AI chatbots to protect children.
Giving a CIA-linked US intelligence firm unlimited access to every NHS patient’s identifiable health records.
For £330 million.
The children are being protected very selectively.
