Civil rights and liberties advocate, appreciator of nice things like democracy and the Boston Celtics. Pro-immigrant. Anti-fascist. Opinions mine.
The only two class names I remember from college are “The Politics of History,” a historiography class that became my favorite class ever, and “The History of Technology,” in which we read Habermas (which I found pretty much impossible to digest).

A manual for ICE's immigrant-targeting computer system, Palantir ELITE, was leaked today.

Let's look at it, then step back to evaluate how far we've come along a dangerous road and where that road might take us. 🧵
Here is the User Guide for ELITE, the Tool Palantir Made for ICE
404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address.

don't mean to blow anyone's mind with this shocking insight but the direct line between epstein, 4chan, gamergate, tech bro fascists etc is misogyny. prolific rapists, guys who believe women have inferior intelligence, and guys who hate women for rejecting them all have something big in common!

I think the conspiracy theory about a global elite pedophile ring orchestrating the great evils of society that broke the minds of 30-40% of Americans originating on the message board likely created at the behest of Jeffrey Epstein is a bit much

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.

They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

A Democratic Party that reflected the values of its base would put this into its national platform: "Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans."
Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

Cities and states need to start getting creative. Run sobriety checkpoints every night looking for drunk ICE and CBP agents. Bet we could get rid of a whole bunch that way. sahanjournal.com/public-safet...

The funding deal separates DHS from the other bills. An immediate DHS shutdown would be preferable, but whether DHS runs on CR or lapses, ICE & CBP continue.

This puts DHS by itself — setting up a DHS-only shutdown if we don’t get enough. That’s a place of maximum strength, if Ds have the courage.
