- our government used a Blackhawk helicopter in a major American city, detained children and zip-tied U.S. citizens all to target... squatters and the alleged Tren de Aragua presence? "It was a brutal lie against the American public." www.propublica.org/article/chic...
- The way people quote posted me like I am stupid as fuck when I said the Dems were fucking us with their 2 week extension

- I mean, it’s not even that “landmark”, it’s in-line with all previous research. Same as before: Sports’ governing bodies should set policies based on good science and a spirit of inclusion, not the opinions of lunatics who only care about sport as a wedge issue to bully trans people out of society
- Abolish ICE is too confusing. What we meant to say is that "no masks should be deployed in an arbitrary and capricious fashion."
- America: where you can sell a random “wellness” drink at CVS, claim it “may” somehow “reinforce” your immune system, and literally call it “The Flu Shot.”

- My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off.

- Vous savez que c'est la troisième fois que Jack Lang a son nom associé à un scandale concernant de la pédophilie ?
- Canada did a consultation on a new national AI strategy, formed an expert task force to write 32 reports, then used AI to analyze the responses & reports. The result is a summary that strings together 100s of vague action items & flattens nuance and policy trade-offs into false consensus
- Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel? Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again. And they almost shot some kids in the process.
- The Minneapolis reporter who was arrested at her home said in an interview today that the officers taped over her doorbell camera.

- My family was imprisoned behind barbed wire and armed guards by our own government. Not for what they did. But because of who they were. I was born in that internment camp. My family history lives with me every day. It drives me to fight for my neighbors—for their rights and for their dignity.

- I LOVE that Adobe is discontinuing a program they only offer a subscription for that I have been using professionally for twenty years. No, it's great I won't be able to open a careers worth of files because the company has decided AI needs to take precedence over animation creation. It's GREAT.

- Axios had a story today about how hard Minnesota’s economy is being hit and how slow the recovery could be. So, I’m going to take this opportunity to say that if you want to support the Twin Cities, you should plan a visit for this summer, spend some money here, & see how amazing it is for yourself.

- Jeffery Epstein was running information in and out of the New York Times, in close coordination with Elon Musk's hired agent, amidst the 2018 "Funding Secured" fake Tesla buyout debacle of 2018. Hearing about stories before they happened, laundering Tesla talking points into reporters.
- Gonna take a little time to really lay the whole thing out there, but it's absolutely incredible to see Jeffery Epstein and Elon Musk's top PR person treating the Times like their plaything. Explains a lot, that's for sure.
- well, thanks, subtitles
- “This isn’t just about us being able to get outside, but it’s actually a safety hazard. If I need to go to the hospital, or if I need to go to the doctor’s office, I can’t do that with the snow being how it is.”

- A deaf teen was violently detained by ICE for not “following orders”. He couldn’t hear their orders. They denied him an interpreter. Denied him accommodations. This is who they are. They target the disabled because eugenics and fascism go hand in hand.
