If things ever get spicy in the US, there's gonna be a lot of instances of right-wing death squads getting actionable intelligence from cops with access to Flock data
Canvassed a guy for Darializa. When I said her name he said “Mamdani?” and I was like yes, the mayor did actually endorse her. And then he said he was going to go vote

🚨Breaking: Colombia's President @petrogustavo has presented evidence that Latin America's voting data goes to USA Data Bases where it can be altered.
We are amidst a Black Scare. The government has clearly singled out anarchists and anti-fascists for extremely punitive sentences, as to suppress the rise of anti-authoritarian leftism in the US.
We must give support to our political prisoners. There are many more to come.
Asked how DOJ defines Antifa, US Attorney for Minnesota replied: "What is Antifa goes beyond, I think, the scope of what this indictment is."

Imagine taking a few Bible verses on human sexuality as literal divine commands from God for all society, but minimizing 2,000+ verses calling for the care of immigrants, the marginalized, the oppressed, and the poor to be a personal choice.
Our loved ones did nothing wrong, and they are being thrown away for the rest of their lives. Not only does the evidence prove their innocence, but the actions of ICE and the federal government over the past year have proven the righteousness of their actions.
Sen. Tuberville promised voters he would donate “every dime” he made in Washington, D.C., to Alabama veterans — and even present checks on a monthly basis. Six years later, tax records and his own nonprofit show no evidence that ever happened.

English fans are flat out disrespectful in Boston, just in case anyone was wondering why we love the Scottish more. Just look to how each chose to decorate the city for the World Cup.
I used to work with a guy who spent every free hour working on his 5.0 Mustang for drag racing (sanctioned stuff on actual tracks) and had become kind of the king of his little sphere. Anyways, one day they were messing around at the track and someone brought their model S. This was before even car guys were really aware of what these cars could do. After some ribbing, they lined up with the Model S. The guy put it in insane mode and smoked my coworker in his Mustang.
They laughed about it and he didnt think much of it. But as months passed, it really bothered him that someone could just go buy an electric car that was faster than he could reasonably make his car go. He didn't quit all at once, but it kind of just stopped being fun for him over time and looking back he can now trace it to that moment.
I think that same thing is happening to developers as they see non-tech people using AI to make decent stuff
Alligator Alcatraz cost American taxpayers $1.2 billion and as of today, it's shutting down for good.
The Trump administration also spent $700 million of taxpayer dollars on seven prison warehouses they're now trying to offload.
And the Trump administration quietly transferred $352 million of taxpayer funds that were meant for Secret Service to fund his Golden Ballroom.
This, all of it, is WASTE, FRAUD AND ABUSE.
Remember in November. 🇺🇸
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former FBI informant pleaded guilty on Monday to lying about a phony bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter that became central to the Republican impeachment inquiry in Congress.
What now FOX?
Is this the one where the gentlemen brought a copy of the fifth circuit opinion saying they couldn’t shave his head, at which point the prison guards threw the papers in the trash and then shaved his head? That one?
Genuinely one of the dumbest statements I’ve ever read in my life.
Right wingers literally just invent their own version of history & pretend that it’s true.
Argentina has never been socialist, and every single pro-labor Government they had in the 20th century got overthrown in a coup backed by conservative business interests or the CIA.
The Argentine military junta that overthrew Isabel Perón in 1976 was one of the worst dictatorships in South American history.
The CIA gave them kill lists of union organizers & Communists, while training them in MK Ultra style torture techniques.
The economy was completely liberalized over the next several decades & handed over to Western corporations & banks.
This culminated in a complete economic collapse by 1998, known as the Argentine Great Depression.
You have to be so historically illiterate to claim that Argentina has been socialist for 100+ years that it’s actually kind of astounding.
This is how delusional you have to be to support capitalism in the big 2026.
In the case of the Colorado small bakery that refused to sell same-sex wedding cakes, the core conservative defense was that small businesses shouldn't be forced to provide services that violate their core beliefs.
Why doesn't that principle apply to a coffee shop that doesn't want to serve a Congressman who supports US financing and arming of Israeli aggression?
This Political Capital Scarcity argument is so tiring. Bernie endorses a ton of candidates every year and his "political capital" isn't tarnished if they all don't win—he's building a long-term movement. A House primary race falling just short builds momentum for the next one.
The self-pity of the ruling class is really sickening. People have witnessed their life world destroyed and their governments defends unspeakable crimes against humanity. This produces anger. Rather than address the cause of anger, you dismiss any criticism of status quo as extremism.
in California, they used to burn the Chinese villages to the ground, and from monterey there are photographs of very fine white ladies in Victorian dress picking through the ashes looking for chinese mementoes, a kind of adventure for them 😬
