Out here in rural MN, ICE starts showing up around 6:30AM and start slowing down at 7:30 or 8:00PM. They’re relentless.

Did an episode with @davidgerard.co.uk that goes out tomorrow about Clawdbot/openclaw/whatever that crap is. It’s more LLM bullshit that the media is scarfing down because some people made a fake social network for LLMs to post to. Nobody will care about this in a few months

Imagine seeing this and still thinking we need incrementalism. Social media has totally cooked people's brains. We got intelligent people who aren't willing to see the forest for the trees because they don't want to admit they were wrong to a bunch of people they'll never meet in real life.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

It's not new information that just saying "no" works but for some reason, many institutions have been paying the full ransom immediately

She should sue every outlet who published DHS's claims. The press can only learn through pain.
DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.
Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.
Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.
After Border Patrol shot two people in Portland, DHS claimed they were "vicious gang members" tied to a past shooting.
But records I obtained reveal a US prosecutor has since directly contradicted DHS, saying, "We're not suggesting he is a gang member." My dive into how DHS' claims have collapsed:

Again, it is not a good state of affairs when Elon Musk can say something like "We're building robots with butt cheeks", and Tesla stock then rises.
elon musk claiming he’s going to build a sentient sun is the direct downstream result of investors, media and wall street analysts letting him say whatever obviously false, crazy shit he wants for so many years without ever facing even the meekest pushback from them
