A Labour MP remarks: "Starmer will go down as the worst PM in Labour history ... He’s a coward who refuses to take responsibility for his own actions. He is a moral gravity-well from which neither decency, honesty or integrity can escape. A genuine disaster for this country and the Labour movement.”

What’s also great is reading the dialogue with Claude where it stops and says “I need to stop and be honest with you about something important” and reveals it deleted every single photo. Software built for dunces

This is awesome but it’s absolutely unconscionable that Minneapolis or Minnesota leaders haven’t ordered an eviction freeze.
Before the charity stream began, content creators from @minnmax.com and @giantbomb.bsky.social weren't sure what number to aim for — maybe $30,000 or $50,000.
Within 15 minutes, they raised $58,000 for local food pantry VEAP. Within an hour, $100,000.

This is why I moved off Substack to Ghost. The Nazis will migrate to any big platform but when a platform actively promotes them, that is a choice
for the terminally online this is *far* from a revalation and also, i *really* hope that it will push more people to jump to another platform. there are places that will help you migrate your newsletter and don't profit off hate speech.

If only there was some guy who was tailing ICE who was happy to work with the media.
wrt to some of the replies to this post, part of why the media has “moved on” is because it has become extraordinarily difficult to document ICE activity on the ground, outside of them arresting citizens.
A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

How artificially intelligent could it be if it's tatanmount to burning 1700 suitcases stuffed with a million dollars apiece in a giant barrel.
Companies are trying to exorcise AI skepticism and spent more than $1.7 billion on AI-related advertising last year — an ongoing marketing blitz that will be inescapable during the Super Bowl.
Can these Super Bowl ads make Americans love something they don’t like?
We asked experts to review four commercials trying to win over the AI-skeptical American public.

To be fair the writers room for this particular reality jumped the shark a long time ago but this metaphor is just a little too on the nose, don’t you think?
A collapsed sewer line, about 8 miles from the White House, pumped 368 Olympic-sized swimming pools worth of wastewater into the Potomac. Repairs could take longer than previously expected.

If ICE gets even one of these facilities fully up and running, it’ll immediately be the second-largest jail in the country behind only Rikers Island.
The proposed centers are so large that some could house as many as 8,000 detainees at once, according to a DHS spreadsheet of more than 20 potential locations that was verified by NBC News. The largest federal prison in the U.S., for example, has roughly 4,000 inmates.
ICE plans to build mega warehouses for immigration detention spark growing concern
Sources at two government contractors told NBC News they were worried that new warehouses — and the large numbers of immigrants who would be housed in them — would present safety problems.
