Here’s what one Signal message uncovered.
I messaged a group admin asking how my family in NJ could help the Delaney Hall protesters. Within minutes she sent me a supply list and a Venmo donation link.
The supply list wasn’t water bottles. It was P100 respirators (tear gas grade), military-spec impact goggles, welding gloves for picking up hot tear gas canisters, helmets, body armor, and Sudecon chemical decontamination wipes. That’s a military/law enforcement product most people have never heard of.
The Venmo link: @cosechanj. That account belongs to Jenny Garcia. She’s the main organizer of the Delaney Hall protests.
Quoted in the American Prospect, Newsweek, and TIME. Listed as the official press contact.
She is not a volunteer. She is a professional organizer.
Venmo feeds are public. I pulled hers.
Payments labeled “Commissary” (money for detained immigrants to buy food inside the facility). “Commissary / phone accounts fund” (keeping detainees’ phones active). “DSA meeting” (Democratic Socialists of America). “Mutual aid.” “F ICE.”
Same account. Uber rides. Cumbia dance classes. A cafe called Pika’s Fika.
Protest donations and personal spending. One feed. No separation.
So who pays Jenny Garcia?
She holds three titles at three organizations.
Detention Watch Network. DC-based. $7.2 million in assets. Ford Foundation funded.
AFSC. Classified as a church. No public donors. Tides Foundation gave them $221K.
Cosecha NJ. The @cosechanj Venmo name. Files two 990s. Reports $0 in salaries. Every year. Every officer. Nobody gets paid.
Foundation money pays Garcia through DWN and AFSC. She organizes under Cosecha’s name. Cosecha claims to pay nobody.
More coming.
A Seattle judge said

⚡️The deeper signal is youth risk did not disappear.
It migrated inward.
Teen drinking fell because the old physical world of adolescence got dismantled. Alcohol belonged to a social ecosystem: unsupervised time, cars, parties, local jobs, malls, basements, boredom, flirting, older siblings, house gatherings, and the chaotic peer world where teenagers learned who they were by colliding with other people in real space.
That ecosystem was replaced by phones, surveillance, parental tracking, algorithmic entertainment, social anxiety, online status games, and a much thinner physical commons.
So the surface looks healthier. Fewer kids drinking. Fewer kids using weed. Fewer kids doing reckless things in public.
The hidden layer looks worse. The young are less reckless because they are less socially embodied. Less initiation. Less unsupervised friction. Less courage-building. Less embarrassment and recovery. Less real dating. Less independence. Less contact with the physical world before adulthood demands it.
The old teenage world produced damage, stupidity, alcohol abuse, pregnancy risk, fights, accidents, and bad decisions. No need to romanticize it. But it also produced social reps. It forced young people through discomfort. It made them practice attraction, rejection, conflict, reputation, risk, repair, and status in the open.
The new world suppresses visible risk while increasing invisible fragility.
That is the trade.
A teenager can avoid drinking, avoid parties, avoid sex, avoid driving, avoid real confrontation, avoid rejection, avoid shame, avoid danger, and still arrive at 23 emotionally underbuilt. Cleaner behavior does not automatically mean stronger formation.
This is why the marriage chart and the teen drinking chart are the same story at different stages. People are not suddenly failing to pair in adulthood. The whole pathway into embodied adulthood has been slowing for years before marriage even becomes the question.
The real truth: society solved part of the teen vice problem by shrinking the arena where teenagers become adults.
It took away the dangerous commons and replaced it with controlled isolation.
The result is safer kids with weaker initiation into real life.
Ok Twitter, I can’t believe I need to clarify this but obviously Trump’s bungled mismanagement of this war is not “awesome”. As I have said a million times here, it’s a disaster and he should end the war immediately. My tweet was something called “sarcasm”.
