So today @safety.bsky.app gave Saeed a lifetime ban despite going out of his way to prove his existence. I don't know what problem @jay.bsky.team has with Arabs, but if you find @bsky.app's draconian and racist targeting bad, donate and email [email protected].

Hearing an Irish person say Irritable Bowel Syndrome would be so soothing. Not to my IBS. But just in general.

This is important & revealing. Gallego is from AZ. He ran to the right of Dems in 2024 on immigration. The fact he's saying this speaks volumes. He sees where the public is on ICE. Tear it down. Build another non-police-state-freak-show immigration enforcement agency.
Arizona’s @gallego.senate.gov : "I think ICE needs to be totally torn down… People want immigration enforcement that goes after criminals, not the goon squad that has come from Stephen Miller and Trump."

404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. Webloc can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

![If you have one CNN poll with Trump up six points, and one ABC poll with Biden up five, the average is Trump up by one point. But neither of the polls actually say that. [The actual average would be Trump up by half a point.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:c2gopt2ldseeusw6fdvodhbg/bafkreifnd3dag7avi5yspue6bn5id3wrjgn6c22insfzumrtvbgwbz66ta@jpeg)

The Trump admin is moving to quickly deport two men who witnessed, they say, ICE guards choke a fellow detainee to death.
The admin moved to deport men right after they spoke the Washington Post.
This is the death that the medical examiner has already ruled likely homicide.

DHS seeking to deport two men who said fellow ICE detainee was killed

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Yet another example where the Left was mocked as shrill and alarmist at the time but was correct all along.
And soon to be another example of centrist pundits who were wrong changing their minds without facing any accountability or doing any reflecting on why they were wrong.

It's pretty interesting that "presidential candidates have to move to the center to win the general election" was unassailable conventional wisdom in political science for 100 years and now one party has completely abandoned that to incredible success.
