I'm sorry, is the Trump Administration talking to a tech platform?

Is it...requesting content moderation?

Today following outreach from @thejusticedept, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target @ICEgov agents in Chicago.
The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs. The Department of Justice will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement.

For Yud, and I think also for Musk, it's obvi stress. Kurzweil took so many I really doubt it can be blamed on just one.

Thanks. So now...who exactly tried to sneak it in there? And who do we have to thank for rejecting it?

Should the New York Times be sold to Pennysaver and its editors sent to work in Amazon warehouses? It depends on who you ask.

We might should get “President Stephen Miller” trending to drive a wedge between him and Trump.

His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

Um, listen, I know you mean well, but I really don't think that's a corner you want to back them into. 🤨

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

If you have substantial liquid assets, I would hope you've already been moving the bulk of them elsewhere regardless, and it is not difficult.

But I would like to know what you're referring to that Obama did, are you talking about Obamacare?

? They're encouraging people to self-deport, and I've not seen any reports at all of anybody being blocked from leaving. Especially by land, where the country you're entering checks your papers, not the country you're leaving. If you're not on their side, they're quite happy to see you go.

Why is Donald Trump's CIA trying to overthrow the government of Georgia?

Hundreds of thousands of Georgians are protesting their pro-Russian government and I have been told for years this only happens because the CIA is behind every revolution in Russia's backyard.
