We knew the reporting of drownings had to be miscalculated but we couldn’t have imaged by just how much.

The reality is that walls and murderous razor-wire buoys do nothing but ensure the death of people desperate to live dignified lives. Desperate to have a shot at freedom.

[Marietje Schaake @MarietjeSchaake]

The Trump victory is a victory for corporate tech, VCs and crypto powerbrokers. The implications for transparency, civil liberties, democratic governance and accountability as well as a shaping of US (foreign) policies through their interests is one reason for concern #techcoup

Jennifer's story of detention and separation from her kids shouldn't have happened- yet it did when an agency violated NYC's sanctuary laws.

Canceled my subscription to @washingtonpost even though I know the real target is Amazon because it gave @JeffBezos the stranglehold he has over our government and our day to day lives.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Families are struggling to put food on the table. I sent a letter to @Kroger about their decision to roll out surge pricing using facial recognition technology. Facial recognition technology is often discriminatory and shouldn't be used in grocery stores to price gouge residents.

[Stacy Mitchell @stacyfmitchell]

1. I just read the judge’s unsealed ruling posted yesterday: The FTC’s monopolization case against Amazon survives handily and fully intact. Despite early headlines to the contrary, this is a complete win for the agency. We’re going to trial.

Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.

Excited to be hosting a panel this Thursday at @CBCFInc's #ALC53 focused on Black and Palestinian solidarity.

Hope to see you there!

[Paromita Shah @paromitashah]

@CoriBush Thank you for all that you did in Congress. So many of us are grateful for your dedication and courage.

New: conservative think tank Heritage Foundation claims it has mobile location data which show the Trump shooter/associates movements. People are just broadcasting the industry's dirty secret now: yes, location data can be used to track specific people https://t.co/2PHmk1S9N5

@theCCR calls for establishment of a War Crimes Accountability Team – Gaza, similar to one in Ukraine, & convening inter-agency effort to identify the number of U.S. citizens that have actively served in the Israeli armed forces since October 7, 2023…War Criminals Not Welcome

War Criminals not welcome:

[Savera: United Against Supremacy @WeAreSavera]

Recent reporting, including new survey data, shows that our warnings of a multiracial far-right, produced at the intersection of Hindutva and white supremacy, are unfortunately being borne out. We must work to show Indian Americans that the far-right will ultimately harm us all.

🚨 AI is tech’s latest trendsetter, but it has a dark side in immigration. Our Automating Deportation report with @JustFuturesLaw dives into how the DHS uses AI to increase detentions & deportations, harming immigrants & the wider community. Read here ➡️  https://t.co/bDqPvr6a4E

@sarahbmyers @nassereledroos Had a wonderful time doing this with you and @AINowInstitute too!

[Sarah Myers West @sarahbmyers]

This was a sharp convo with Cynthia Conti-Cook, @paromitashah and @nassereledroos, a few of my co-authors on the shadow report - and makes clear how distant this industry-driven policymaking process was from the concerns orgs like ours have been working on for years.

[AI Now Institute @AINowInstitute]

Public representatives need more than “a seat at the table” in AI governance: they should be in the driver’s seat.

AI Now joined 50 orgs & experts to expose the limits of Schumer’s industry-helmed process, urging Congress to protect the public instead: https://t.co/N1gNQeSo0g

🚨EU Migration Pact passed ❌

The Pact will bring a deadly new era of digital surveillance of migrants & more tech will be used to criminalise people entering Europe.
