Very excited to say that 404 Media's zine about ICE Surveillance is here. If you ordered a print copy, I put it in the mail last week. If not, we of course think the info inside is very important so here's a free PDF. We also translated it into Spanish:

Why would they do this?
•To further traumatize victims
•To intimidate other victims from coming forward
•To prosecute anyone who has downloaded latest batch of the Epstein files
•To prevent people from sleuthing future Epstein files for fear they would inadvertently download similar
•All of above
Deliberate AF, methinks. "The Government Published Dozens of Nude Photos in the Epstein Files. The photos, which showed young women or possibly teenagers with their faces visible, were largely removed after The New York Times began notifying the Justice Department."

I realize The Presidential Records Act hasn't lived up to its potential but at least the theory is sound; it seems obvious that judges' papers should be preserved and archived outside of their control, and ideas about access to the papers can be discussed.

Notice how he was completely unafraid to say his full name and spell it out on camera. It’s counterintuitive for a lot of people but that gives all of us security and power in this moment. Being completely unafraid in their faces, in full public with our names, because there is more of us than them.
BREAKING:

GOP Rep. Mike Lawler held a town hall tonight in Rockland County…and proceeded to have VETERANS thrown out of the venue.

Thinking a lot recently and having conversations about how to build a movement when everybody tired and overwhelmed. How do you get people who are shut down or who have been burned to re engage?
Exactly! I shouldn't have to have read every book to have a conversation with someone. I want to learn, that often works best in personal relationships. If I have to do all that work just to engage, then no one will engage and the movement dies. Perfection is the enemy of good enough.

He also does a lot of interviews that are perfectly normal, so when he gets one of these in his crosshairs, they think "oh, it's the guy who had that nice interview with Malala" and not "oh, it's the guy who disemboweled Ted Koppel"

Everyone thinks they're the Malala.
the results Chotiner gets (like Mehdi Hasan) from simply a) doing his homework and b) asking follow-up questions rather than accepting deflections are remarkable - but also a testament to how much U.S. interviewers normally defer to power
If Chotiner asks for an interview remember the two rules:

- Ask if you are being detained. If not, leave.
- Say you want to speak to your lawyer and nothing else.

Well, he certainly seemed unperturbed by the comparison to Riefenstahl's "Triumph Of The Will".

It's possibe some cinematographers are so used to contemplating the technique of that movie they completely miss the whole Nazi Propaganda thing but it was still something to read him placidly agreeing.

I think it's funny that this interview gave Chotiner a chance to reference this thing he tweeted about 4 years ago

Since a lot of the coverage is omitting this detail: The Kennedy Center HAD a $250 million renovation and expansion just a few years ago, in 2019.

Please for god's sake put a red line through Nazi propaganda if you want to re-post it. Otherwise you're just helping their project of spreading these images. It doesn't matter what words you say. If you disseminate raw images, you are doing their work for them. Please delete.

there was an ABC news camera 15 feet from me. don’t light things on fire on the news. also don’t burn down the neighborhood that all the neighbors are trying to protect.
Man surprised that he got punched for filming faces during a time where the federal government is showing up to people’s homes to threaten them.
After the Pretti shooting, one of those guys straight-up suckerpunched me for “filming faces”… as I filmed him and fully-masked friends lighting fires directly in front of the dozens of gathered press crews. Nonsensical; just dudes wanting someone to give them a reason. Not that different from ICE.

Someone doesn't remember what US white supremacists did to the Irish. Hope they all get a call from their mommas soon askin why they're making fools of the family
I have a white ass name, but this bigot in the Illinois College Republicans might have the most white ass name of all time.

Stupid, goofy looking racist bigot.
