WIRED: “ICE expands plans to outsource immigrant tracking to private surveillance firm… up to $280 MILLION…”

Front page of the NY Times says it all. Trump hands out hundreds of billions in tax cuts to corporations and wealthy investors and tells states to stop providing full food stamp benefits to low-income families. Plutocracy in action. Thanks, Trump voters.

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here.
This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections."
Each defendant assaulted him.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here
THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.
You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Hamas has accepted a draft agreement for a ceasefire and the release of dozens of hostage, and Israel has agreed in principle to the ceasefire as well.
Bravo, President Biden!
Let's get it done!

The thing that gets me about this immigrant/crime narrative is it’s based on an easily disprovable lie.
The data is clear: Immigrants commit only *1/4th* the crime of non-immigrants.
This entire thing is nothing but a self-own by ignorant fucking racists.

New from @propublica.org: A third Texas woman, Porsha Ngumezi, died under that state’s abortion ban. Instead of the D&C she needed, doctors gave her misoprostol. The bleeding continued and she died. www.propublica.org/article/pors...
A Third Woman Died Under Texas’ Abortion Ban. Doctors Are Avoiding D&Cs and Reaching for Riskier Miscarriage Treatments.
Thirty-five-year-old Porsha Ngumezi’s case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.
