🥩 #BigBeef #beef
[the Digital Command Centre is
staffed 24/7, w personnel redundancies built in to make sure someone’s always watching]

…and people worry about vegan propaganda 😑 (aka, animal rights activists exposing the truth of the violent, environmental disaster that is the livestock industry)

Screenshot of a post by the guardian, showing a photograph of a NASA-like control room, with caption:

The beef industry has developed a “Digital Command Centre” that tracks media outlets $ social media for more than 200 #beef related topics. Hosted in Denver in a space that looks like a military operation, it’s staffed 24 hours a day 7 days a week, w personnel redundancies built in to make sure someone’s always watching.

"Career prosecutors determined that there was no evidence to support these charges. They were pushed out and replaced with individuals whose only qualification is their loyalty to a single man, not to the Constitution or the law. That is corruption. That is abuse of power...we must all speak out."

INBOX: National Bar Association President Ashley L. Upkins calls the charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James “unjust and dangerous” and a representation of "the continued weaponization of our nation’s justice system for political gain."

I am a proud Californian. Born at Children’s Hospital in San Francisco, my beloved hometown. A safe sanctuary city that celebrates its diversity.

I voted YES on 50 to ensure GOP cheaters don’t gerrymander my state into the failed red state redistricted models our state taxes bail out every year.

"The recent release of a number of unjustly detained immigrants shows there’s power in resistance and speaking out for our neighbors," writes @tusk81.bsky.social.

These victories send a message that the administration cannot arbitrarily detain individuals protected from deportation by law.
