Portland woman testifies that police lied about ICE activity in Oregon when 12 to 15 agents surrounded her vehicle, and she called 911 for help on December 10th. "I have a question for the police. If you refuse to do your job, are you prepared for us to do it for you?"

I cannot emphasize how serious an assault on democracy this is. Any effort by the Trump administration to engage in false claims of fraud or mass voter suppression relies on this as a building block. As importantly, there is no legitimate reason DOJ would want this information.
🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin and Washington, D.C. Thursday for unfettered access to the states’ voter registration records. The federal government has now filed lawsuits against 21 states, plus D.C.

RUTHERFORD COUNTY: “Her whole focus is regaining custody of her daughter.”

Woman gives birth in custody, ICE separates from her baby for 35 days even after all charges dropped - locked up in Louisiana while her newborn is in state custody in Tennessee.

My analysis. Polarisation does not exist in way it's to often described ('echo chambers'). But the mechanism can be exploited in propaganda, disinformation, mechanical information operations. Bonus: agreement with 'enemies of the group' is penalised socially. blog.lukaszolejnik.com/polarisation...
Polarisation is not about filter bubbles or echo chambers, here's why
In my book I gently touch upon a problem often framed as a technical story about algorithms and content feeds. The “information bubble” or "echo chamber" model suggests that most people are locked int...
