Amazon's Ring is facing a class-action lawsuit that alleges their "Familiar Faces" feature collects and stores biometric faceprints from visitors and bystanders without consent.

So basically, you don't ever have to own a Ring camera to be surveilled by one.

Our neighbors' doorbells are converting our faces, our movements, and anything we do into data for Amazon to harvest.

This is easily one of the largest civilian surveillance networks humanity has ever seen.

Welcome to our new perverted dystopia where the physical spaces in our communities have become one big surveillance dragnet.

Universal healthcare and free education is a step too far. Funding a foreign apartheid state though? That we can find room in the budget for.

Asked about bombing water facilities in Iran, Trump goes on a bonkers rant about "rigged elections" in California: "I went on such a tear that they approved Steve Hilton immediately. It's such a rigged deal. It's so crazy. They approved him so fast. And by the way we have the US attorneys looking at it."

"But about Iran," Brian Kilmeade interjects.

Trump on Fox & Friends: "They're dying to make a deal. They want to make a deal so badly. We dropped $250 million of bombs on them last night. They're really in submission. They just don't know it yet."

Florida voters unequivocally banned gerrymandering for partisan gain in their Constitution, which nobody denies is exactly what was done here, but GOP judges are GOP operatives and therefore “so what.”

It's not even that they shrug and move on, they WANTED this.

Jessica: Susan Collins loves to say I'm pro-choice. We have 13 states alone that have trigger laws where if you are six weeks pregnant you can't get access to reproductive healthcare. That is something that mortally offends Susan Collins but yet she votes for Republican nominees to the court.

Angela Davis once said that we live in a society of an imposed forgetfulness, a society that depends on public amnesia.

Scott Pelley:

"The very last thing that the previous ownership did was pay a multi-million-dollar bribe to the president to settle this frivolous, ridiculous lawsuit.

And very shortly after that, somehow the Trump administration approved the sale."

Every state AG in America should be blocking the Paramount deal as the fruits of blatant corruption.

And then unwind the prior corrupt deal.

Florida Republicans blatantly violate their constitution and brutally gerrymander their map without a single vote = 100% legal.

Virginians vote to change their constitution so they can temporarily offset right wing gerrymandering = 100% illegal.

America is a banana republic.

This is illegal in every way possible. So of course Don is trying to do it. Following illegal orders also applies to you, postmasters.

‼️ This is Trump’s Watergate Moment.

For months the Vice President, White House Chief of Staff, Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, Kash Patel and other top officials colluded in the Situation Room to break the law and BURY the Epstein investigation.

This is what went down ⬇️

NASHVILLE— REP. @brotherjones_: “I was a professor here, teaching environmental racism. @Fisk1866 U President (Dr. Clark) asked me if it would conflict with plans to build a data center on campus. I started teaching about dangers of A.I… my class was canceled within a week.”🤔

In all seriousness though, this will (or at least should) go down as one of the biggest media failures in modern history.

The political media absolutely HOUNDED the previous president and made his age/health THE ONLY issue that mattered of his presidency.

And then they helped elect a guy who was just a few years younger (aka still old as shit) with a litany of unexplained health issues, a brain that is visibly detoriating and who brags about taking his dementia test 3x a week.

And then....they just haven't talked about it. At all. You can barely even get them to acknowledge it.

They alleged a big coverup of Biden's health, but they are literally complicit in covering up the current president, Donald Trump's health...which we can all see, right in front of our very eyes.

Just can't put into words how much of a disgrace the political media is...

Six former #60Minutes staffers spoke to Variety about the turmoil that has unfolded under CBS News chief Bari Weiss.

“I have a feeling that Bari will not be overseeing ‘60 Minutes’ for very much longer,” Steve Kroft tells Variety. “I think once the deal gets done with Warner Bros., people will demand that she be let go or move into another position. Everything she’s touched has turned to shit. Everything she’s touched has gone colossally wrong. And I don’t think she’s shown any talent for this position. She’s only fulfilling other people’s agendas.”
