the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

BREAKING: Judge Margaret Garnett tosses out the murder count faced by Luigi Mangione in federal court, with the "practical effect" that he cannot face the death penalty.
This is, Garnett writes, a result of her application of the "categorical approach" employed by the Supreme Court to his case.

I started to "yes, and" by pointing out that of any two entities exchanging information there's no way to guarantee at least one isn't a security risk, but then I remembered no one has cracked dolphin squeaks or elephant infrasound or whatever corvids do, so I guess there *are* secure channels. 🙄

Obviously, DHS already has a big pile of money, but any opportunity to choke off resources to Trump's MAGA Goon Army has to be taken.

But DHS is split off, so potentially if the Dems can find their spine, in two weeks they can just...no reach cloture on further DHS funding. Ever.
Right? Because I think that's the key play here.

You are able to make copies of books you own as long as you aren't reselling, distributing them, or performing them. Destructive copying to a new format has even more protections.

That's not a clear violation because you can copy the books you buy for your own use! That's exactly what the ruling you didn't understand said!

i can confirm the chats I’m in which include renowned security specialists - people who actually advise on how to protect your comms from authoritarian dictators for a living - also think this outburst of paranoia about Signal is really weird and unwarranted

Last week a border patrol agent was filmed pepper-spraying a detained protester at point-blank range. @pacantifa.is identified agent as Tyler Gramlin.
For @us.theguardian.com I asked Gramlin for comment. His response? He sent me a weird far-right "Amelia" meme. "DEFEND YOUR HOMELAND," it said.

Has anyone seen the charging instrument? Interested in how they got it.
The charges against Don Lemon are ridiculous. He’s a target because he’s black, because he’s media, and because he’s a Trump critic, and because Trump and his minions cannot accept any dissent. It’s deeply pathetic, unamerican, and lawless.

the fear of being identified/idea that it's socially normalized to have secret identities/concept of doxing as the ultimate faux pas and social failure are things that have massively impaired my own life and ability to network with people, & deserve criticism

(I have been doxed by Nazis btw)
An entire generation of people raised on social media simply do not have an understanding of how the media, protests, and surveillance work.
My hottest take is that masks at protests are cowardly and have done absolutely nothing but make all protests themselves look unserious to neutral parties.

Anyone who is cagey about who they are or what they’re doing, do not trust. Real journalists exist in a kind of social compact where they tell us their role and their rules, they respect our rules, and in exchange for that they get access. Almost all of them are extremely scrupulous about this
