These are police state tactics.
The same House members who warned service members that they must refuse unlawful orders from President Trump are now saying the FBI is attempting to intimidate them into silence.
Punchbowl also reporting that Senator Mark Kelly has heard from the FBI.

This is heartbreakingly cruel and hypocritical. The same admin that has redefined refugee status to cover white South Africans is now going to drown thousands of refugees already approved for their status in red tape, potentially even seeking to strip some of their status and deport them.
Trump Admin planning a rule to re-decide whether *every* refugee who entered under Biden meets their criteria for a refugee. That’s 230,000 people! And no appeals!

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I have a visceral negative reaction anytime anything AI is forced into my feed on any platform.
I know that I’m not the only one who feels this way.

I’m sure I’m gonna get dragged for this, but I think AI is bad. AI has completely ruined Google search and it’s created a lot more slop that needs to be avoided on the Internet.

In case anyone was curious, “don’t follow unlawful orders” is not an inflammatory statement.
In fact, the UCMJ explicitly instructs military members to comply with that statement.

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

They are literally firing all the judges they think might grant relief. They just fired a friend of mine a couple hours ago. They have no shame. The bastards want an assembly line for deportations and nothing more; rubber-stamping bootlickers who’ll yes’sir at every new diktat to deny.
Instead of hiring more immigration judges, the Department of Justice just posted an ad for "deportation judges." join.justice.gov

I squeezed the established sponge filter into this tank hoping to kick off the cycle with good bacteria. I still plan on running it for at least week before I test the parameters.

Picked up a used 60 gallon cube aquarium for cheap.
I rescued a couple of black moor goldfish who are going to outgrow my 20 gallon soon, so I figured that I better come up with a solution. Set it up with an “E” shape 4” PVC pipe tunnel, black river stones, and black sand.
