A traffic stop turns on commands the driver cannot hear. He points to the hearing aids in both ears and signs with his hands up.

The officer reads the signing as reaching, warns he will be tased, and deploys the taser. The clip says Anthony Lewis, a deaf interpreter, was shocked after his sign language was taken as a threat, and that the department later paid $8.7 million for failing to recognize the disability.

Should officers be required to spot a disability before they use force?

A friend of mine who works in Russia has just sent me a voicemail: St Petersburg is going to go into lockdown tomorrow because of the plague outbreak. Not joking.

This is not a joke.

The Russian biological war research should have us all concerned and stopping ALL flight from Russia, and all Russians from entry.

The longer this goes on the more countries we will have to stop flight from.

FYI: the Russians were working on a plague that is resistant to antibiotics

WATCHING—The U.S. State Department is monitoring a reportedly fatal case of "pneumonia of an unknown etiology" linked to a plague research laboratory in Russia. Health authorities in Russia's Irkutsk region launched anti-epidemic measures after an employee of a plague institute was diagnosed with "pneumonia of an unknown etiology”. The lab involved is the Anti-Plague Research Institute in Shelekhov, in southern Siberia, Russia. The statement comes after some Russian media and public figures reported a death potentially due to the plague and linked to a lab worker. Russian officials did not provide further details on the worker. Amid the investigation, some protective measures have been announced in the region. A mask mandate has been implemented at the Irkutsk Aluminum Plant in Shelekhov, according to the plant's director, Artem Fominykh.

From @TheAthletic: LeBron James will make nearly four times as much promoting the Polymarket prediction market as he will from playing basketball. The deal may not break NBA rules, but it raises uncomfortable questions. https://t.co/zRVcnfdy17

Black jockeys won fifteen of the first twenty-eight Kentucky Derbies.

By 1921 there were none. Not fewer — NONE. They were removed from the sport entirely and it took sixty-nine years before another Black jockey rode in the Derby.

Isaac Murphy was the best of them. He was born enslaved in Kentucky. He won the Derby three times — the first jockey ever to do it and rode with a win rate he reported at around forty-four per cent, a figure no modern jockey approaches.

As prize money and prestige grew, white jockeys organised to force Black riders out — boxing them in on the rail, refusing to ride against them, pressuring owners.

Racing associations stopped licensing them.
Within twenty years, an entire profession that Black men had dominated since before the Civil War was simply emptied.

This is the pattern that repeats everywhere in this archive and almost nobody names it: Black excellence does not get pushed out of the poor jobs. It gets pushed out of the jobs that become lucrative.

We must never forget our history

Facebook bought a VPN for $200 million.

The app was called Onavo. it promised to "keep you and your data safe" and "block dangerous websites."

Buried in the small print: "Onavo collects your mobile data traffic. Because we're part of Facebook, we use this to improve Facebook products."

Meaning Facebook could see every app you opened, how long you used it, and how much data it consumed. all of it flowing through their VPN. Feeding their competitor intelligence operation.

Zuckerberg's internal emails showed he was specifically worried about Snapchat. its traffic was encrypted. Facebook couldn't see what was happening inside it. Onavo solved that.

Unsealed court documents revealed Project Ghostbusters. Facebook used Onavo's infrastructure to run SSL man-in-the-middle attacks on Snapchat's encrypted traffic, they decrypted it, read it and used it to inform product decisions.

and when Apple forced Onavo off the App Store in 2018 for data collection violations:

Facebook didn't stop, they rebranded it "Facebook Research" and paid teenagers between 13 and 25 up to $20 a month to install it and grant root network access to their phones, recruited via ads on Instagram and Snapchat.

Apple found out and banned that too.

Facebook's statement: "market research helps companies build better products."

Barron Trump is a grown-ass man who's best friends with Andrew Tate and built a $150 million crypto fortune. He's absolutely fair game for a corruption investigation, along with the rest of his crime family.

New Cornell 7 rape group chat details are horrifying.

The men say the “shop is open”.

They reassure others that the victim is on birth control.

They say “I hope it’s not another fatty”.

It sounds like they’ve done this before.

How many times? How many victims?

Charles Barkley: “I think one of the worst things about Trump, he’s made it popular to be racist. There’s no consequences for being racist now. A lot of people are wearing it with a badge of courage. He never denounces it. Nah, he should denounce it. He’s made it more acceptable to be racist”

[michael musto @mikeymusto]

I can't believe Trump wanted the death penalty for the Central Park Five and yet he feels badly for the Cornell frat boys. Gee, what could the difference be?
