A 22-year-old student teacher in Illinois sent a private Snapchat message to her boyfriend and two roommates.

A student had walked up to her laptop and deleted her lesson plan mid-class. frustrated, she typed something like "should I shoot him" with a gun emoji. venting. four people. private group chat.

An hour later, police walked into her school and arrested her.

here's what happened in between.

Snapchat's AI scanned the private message. flagged it as a potential threat. automatically reported it to the FBI. the FBI forwarded it to local law enforcement. deputies arrived at the school within the hour.

she cooperated immediately. handed over her phone. when shown the message she said: "oh yes. okay. yeah. i'm realizing that was a bad joke. i did not mean it at all serious at all."

police determined she was not a threat. school officials determined she was not a threat. prosecutors reviewed and issued a disorderly conduct charge. she was released the next morning. she lost her student teaching placement.

This means:

Snapchat scans private messages.

Not just public posts or stories. private group chats between you and your closest contacts. automated AI. no human reviewed it first, got flagged and reported.

Snapchat AI → FBI → local police → school → arrest.

in under an hour.

Snapchat's privacy policy says it may share your information with law enforcement when it believes there is a risk of harm. the definition of "risk of harm" is determined by an algorithm.

you are not told when a message is flagged.
you are not told when a report is filed.
you find out when the police arrive.

the message was private.

it wasn't.

I am a single issue voter anymore. If you support Israel in literally any way shape or form I will not vote for you. I do not care about literally anything else anymore. How can anyone see this and ignore it.

1) US citizen tries to turn down a street and tells agents “I’m going to a doctor appointment”

2) Half the agents tell her to drive, the other half tell her to get out the car

3) They try ripping open her car doors from all sides

4) She doesn’t drive away because she just saw a woman get shot in the face three times for doing that

5) So she stays there and again explains to officers, “I’m going to a doctor appointment, I’m disabled”

6) They shatter her window, rip her out of the car, and arrest her

Nick Sortor and people like him post this video like it’s a good look for ICE because they love living in a fascist hellscape. They’re tiny little men that loves sucking the cock of authority and celebrating militarized police violating the rights of US citizens.

They will be looked back on in history as the worst kind of people. Even by Republicans, who will inevitably separate themselves from the cult of this administration.

Absolute fucking losers.

🚨 BREAKING: The Epstein files controversy just escalated — again.

According to CBS News, Epstein survivors and Senate Democrats are now calling for a full audit to determine whether the Epstein case files have been tampered with before their public release.

In a letter sent Thursday to the DOJ Inspector General, Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats demanded a formal review to verify there are no breaks in the chain of custody and no unexplained gaps in the records.

Survivor representatives told CBS that a third-party review is urgently needed to ensure nothing has been “scrubbed, softened, or quietly removed before the public sees it.”

Dear American farmers and SNAP recipients,

Donald Trump does not give a shit about you.

But he gave this wacko in Argentina $40 BILLION
