Woso. Gotham FC season tix holder. Leftist politics

BREAKING:

Israel is massively bombing the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon right now, in the middle of the night, with zero warning given to civilians.

Families are asleep in their homes.

No military targets. No justification.

Just Israeli bombs falling on civilian areas in the dark.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

BREAKING: The Trump administration reportedly says ALL green card applicants must now leave the country indefinitely while their cases are processed; even if they are legally in the U.S. or married to American citizens.

This would be one of the most aggressive immigration policy shifts in years.

[Nick Davidov @Nick_Davidov]

The biggest bullshit move by DHS in its history. So everyone on a O1 or H1B visa would have to stop working legally in the US, go back to their country and wait for years of backlog? This includes top scientists in our universities, founders of billion dollar companies (at least 3 just in our portfolio would be affected by the way). And if we look at individual countries it becomes even more bs. Indians would have to wait decades. Russians don’t have anywhere to go (there is no US embassy in Russia, hello?).

This is the worst imaginable way to disrupt important work for the country and pretend you’re fighting some loophole.

@lexiescarina I don’t have a problem with physical teams, but Boston frequently crosses the line into dirty. And because the refs aren’t reliably wise to it, Boston is profiting from it.

[misterk7 @misterk7]

@lexiescarina It would be bad for some OG fans, and that sucks. But GFC should be selling out games like the Spirit, and despite championships and star players, it’s not happening. When DC moved to Audi their attendance went way up. I think the same would happen for Gotham.

[Samantha Dudley @InspiredByJM]

I’m a Gotham FC fan but I’m from Cleveland Ohio so I’ve never really gotten into the Boston/NY rivalry thing because I’m not from there so I don’t feel it. After playing the Boston Legacy twice this year I get it. Fuck Boston. And while we’re at it fuck the refs

[misterk7 @misterk7]

@lexiescarina She is getting hacked relentlessly in every game but this was the worst one. Ref was awful. He loved calling fouls on inconsequential plays with minimal contact, but when it came to big calls to protect players he was a coward.

Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent.

The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel.

It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted.
While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification.

The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event.

To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.

Trump blocks visas for Costa Rica's leading newspaper because it broke a sexual abuse scandal involving the country's current president, who is a Trump ally. https://t.co/sij578FiDA

ICE has not paid for detainee medical care for 7 months. The termination of payments to providers has coincided with a massive spike in detainee deaths and medical crises. Reporting by @JuddLegum: https://t.co/zGUWUZ1BFY

Imagine being a scientist investigating vaccines in the U.S. After years of research and millions spent, your study is blocked from publication because your data doesn't support RFK's and the FDA's battle against vaccines. This is why people like me were forced to leave.

[Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez @repdeliaramirez]

Trump, Miller, and Markwayne have decided to close the office responsible for investigating misconduct and abuse in immigration detention centers.

Yeah, you read that right. Despite 49 deaths of detained immigrants, detention centers will operate and profit without oversight.

It is clearer than ever: Reforms are not enough! Congress must STOP funding DHS, pass my Melt ICE Act, and dismantle DHS.

[courtneybonneauimages @cbonneauimages]

The level of complicity of the @BBC in the ethnic cleansing of southern Lebanon is shocking. I am listening to their Jerusalem correspondent report that the ‘IDF are striking Hezbollah targets’ while I’m on the ground in the middle of it watching men, women and children being killed on a daily basis. My colleagues are being executed. Paramedics are being systematically murdered. All of this is happening in plain sight and the BBC correspondent here in Lebanon knows it.

May you all be put on trial for your deadly propaganda when the time comes. Shame on all of you, especially those on the ground who are too cowardly to speak out.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

The Justice Department has identified 384 naturalized Americans it wants to strip of citizenship.

Officials are calling this the “first wave.”

The American people deserve answers about who these 384 people are and why they were chosen.

We need to know whether the list was assembled on the merits or on prejudice.

What are the specific grounds being cited for each case? Is there a pattern by country of origin, religion, or ethnicity? Is there a pattern by political affiliation or by support for causes this administration dislikes? 

For context, between 1990 and 2017 the government filed an average of just 11 denaturalization cases per year. What is happening now is a different operation entirely, one that pulls experienced prosecutors off healthcare fraud, civil rights, and procurement fraud cases to go after Americans who already took the oath.

Naturalized citizens are not second class Americans.

They earned their citizenship and the Constitution protects it.

Before a single case is filed, the Justice Department owes the public a straight answer about how this list was built and who is on it.

Last night, Israeli forces intercepted and boarded a humanitarian aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters off the coast of Greece — unlawfully detaining more than 175 people, including several New Yorkers.

My team has been in direct contact with State and Federal partners as we work to confirm the whereabouts and conditions of these New Yorkers.

This is a brazen violation of international law. Those detained must be released.

NEW: A torture victim from Colombia who fled to the US and has since been at the center of a lengthy deportation process has once again been deported by the Trump administration... to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)—a country where she has no ties.

The 15 Latin Americans deported from the US to Kinshasa are holed up in a hotel by the airport, where there are water cuts, rats, and lots of mosquitoes. They have no passports, don't speak French, and have no idea what comes next. My story for @NPR: https://t.co/wlfVrqRMLd

The EPA's independent science arm did groundbreaking research to save lives. It studied fertility, asthma, wildfires, drinking water, climate change etc etc

In just one year, it has been almost completely dismantled

Of 1500 scientists, only 124 remain

@overgothampod I'm so confused, it's halftime at a Gotham game and I'm not stressed!?!?

The team looks really good. Night and day in terms of the fluidity of the players and the ball movement.

I would love to see Cook, Whitman, Schupansky, Harper,Kitahata etc. get some good minutes
