“ICE is planning on buying a tool that will let it see hundreds of millions of phones' location data.”

This is what people voted for - a total control of the government over privacy.

Journalists should stop interviewing liars. Since liars lie all the time, what new information are we really learning by interviewing them? You’re only platforming their lies.

We are in a recession, by the way. A bad one. Prices are way up. People can't find jobs.

I am plugged into this in a very real way. The stock market is just not important unless you are in the top 10%/1%.

I have not seen a labor market this bad since 2008. The 2nd Great Depression is coming.

I can remember the media and the GOP previously having a huge problem with the children of presidents being placed on boards. I guess it's fine now.

The firehose of easily disprovable lies from Trump and his allies continues to get worse each month, with one statement after another completely untethered from reality, which is why it is so important for them to take ownership and control of media platforms & intimidate others.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

"The president has already announced that if a judge does rule against him, he will invoke the Insurrection Act and then continue the military deployments. This is where we’ve been headed since January 6, 2021."

We aren’t at the worst-case scenario yet. But if you squint, you can see it looming out there, just over the horizon.
