If you jumped on the recent social media trend of posting photos or videos of memories from 2016, AI says thanks.

That's because the high volume of publicly available, labelled images is a gold mine for anyone needing data to train AI models.

Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

The rapid rise of renewables in Australia & the role of grid-scale batteries to firm the system. Don't let critics spread FUD about the technical issues of adding renewables to the grid. They are all solvable. The result? The fastest #EnergyTransition in history.

The rise of battery storage, and why the grid is rapidly passing gas!
Although batteries still account for a modest share of total capacity, they are exerting a disproportionate influence in Australia's main grids.

I'm gonna add to this that the Dems had ZERO to do with the Bovino firing. It was the tireless work of the good people of MSP standing strong, filming and writing the news with their first hand accounts. The press tried to both sides it. They WANTED to. But the citizens of Minnesota ended this guy
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry

Bovino was not just following orders but he’s no rogue - like everyone in this murderous lawless admin he must be held totally responsible for his words and deeds & that should not get any higher ups off the hook but have the opposite effect. He served as he was let go: at the president’s pleasure.

Abolish ICE says the most popular Dem in the party. The most popular politician of the moment. The guy who got 50% of the insane melting pot known as NYC to vote for him. Maybe he's got the right instincts? Who can say
ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.
