House Democrats must vote ‘no’ on DHS funding tomorrow. Our country is in the middle of a five alarm fire, and we must act like it.
While ICE agents are killing Americans in the street and using five year old children as bait, we should not give that agency another dime.

It’s genuinely insane that this technology is even legal, let alone that it’s being shoved down our throats from every possible angle
Reading about a 76-year-old man who left Jersey for New York to meet who he thought was a real baddie but was actually just Meta’s Kendall Jenner AI chatbot and while rushing to catch the bus he tripped, broke his neck and died.
A flirty Meta AI bot invited a retiree to meet. He never made it home.
Impaired by a stroke, a man fell for a Meta chatbot originally created with Kendall Jenner. His death spotlights Metaâs AI rules, which let bots tell falsehoods.

“These people do it naturally”
Trump on undocumented farm workers: "People that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They've tried, we've tried, everybody tried. They don't do it. These people do it naturally. Naturally ... they don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die."
