Trump is a stochastic terrorism machine. "Slotkin told NBC News that she has received "100s & 100s, if not, you know, closer to 1,000 threats" since the video first picked up traction & then Trump suggested on Thursday that her message was "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!" 🧾 is.gd/T6VoMt

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Joint Statement from Goodlander, Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Deluzio, and Houlahan

About to give public comment about Huntington Beach wanting to hire back Michael Gates in a legal capacity (it’s been reported by the OC Register he was fired for cause from Trump’s DoJ for creating a hostile work environment)

Google holds gmail and workspace features hostage if you don't let them ram Gemini down your throat and over your data. Still going with the plan to not put users first, Sundar?

Google [pointing a gun at your gmail account]: now listen to me very carefully, if you want to keep using this you’re going to keep Gemini on. You love Gemini, everyone loves it, everyone needs it.

ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event If you have a medical emergency in ICE custody, there’s a chance you will simply “disappear” Or you could end up like Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel who was deported to Costa Rica in a persistent vegetative state. He died soon after.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice. Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you. (continue...)

Judge and intern, saved by Superior Court Head of Security Operations. At what point will local police arrest ICE for illegally taking photos in a courthouse and threatening to smash car windows without a warrant for individuals inside (coercion through threat of violence)? Arrest on intimidation.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social this is not the time to "remove posts"; it's long past time to remove Trump. The sheer number of laws he has broken was enough and now his calls to violence are beyond the pale. Impeach and remove Trump. You are endangering people every day you do not call for this.

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.

The GOP needs to remove Trump immediately. Trump is calling for the death of American veterans.

"Ingrassia chided authorities for taking the action, saying the seizure of the Tates’ devices was not a good use of time or resources." There's only one basis for declaring is a waste of time and resources to investigate sex crimes: you commit sex crimes.

"Palantir. We paid for this big ass ad... And are grabbing all the park video footage to add to our facial recognition database that is in no way biased against minorities." /s

If "Big Vaccine" existed, they'd go after RFK Jr like Tylenol did for his false links to autism. Seriously, folks, RFK is not a trustworthy health source and now, by extension, neither is the CDC. Autistic kids exist because autistic adults have sex. The government did want me to have babies.

this provision does a lot more than that: it gives de facto civil and criminal immunity to senators and their staff by requiring notification of the entire Senate if a member or their staff is under investigation

Democrats saw the game he was trying to play and beat him at his own game. If Trump wanted to launch a nationwide attack on fair maps, he should’ve been ready for the blowback. Actions have consequences. He’s meeting his.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

A Chinese immigrant named Chaofeng Ge died in ICE custody. He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position. Deaths within these camps continue to rise, with more people dying in the last nine months than in the entire previous four years. Abolish ICE

I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.

@adamgrayca.bsky.social @georgewhitesides.bsky.social What are you doing? Stay out of DC business. @rokhanna.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social can you please talk some sense into your California peers?

I don't believe President #PiggyTrump signed the bill unless it actually gets shown. We know how much he lies.

@larrysummers.bsky.social is absolutely not ashamed. He has a long history of a white, male superiority complex and stating full out he should get to harass women. He should be ashamed, but he's definitely not.

Khanna: "The speaker looked frazzled last night. I think he's totally lost it. He's attacking the bill and he's not showing up to hear the survivors. The survivors wanted this bill. Then he's voting for a bill he criticized. And he's lost the confidence of half the people in his own caucus."

LLMs are predictive word generators that still can't find how many 'r's are in a variety of words and phrases. I'm so sick of companies throwing LLMs at something to see if it "works" and only finding later how it doesn't. It's irresponsible. Sadly, examples like this don't stop the push to do so.

I have books to write and people to take care of. I don’t have time to get Covid or a cold!

Don't elect billionaires. Defund them.

The future is DEI, not AI.

"this is a rude technology, and it deserves a rude response."

A good counter point to victim blaming rhetoric is noting that the best cyclists in the world get hit by drivers. It's not about skill; it's about lack of infrastructure and dangerous drivers (yes, even in the Netherlands). This happened in broad daylight too.

ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say. "When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

A cycling influencer nominated for a list of top 100 women cyclists said she has declined the honour due to the decision not to include trans women. Claire Sharpe, a cycling coach from Bristol, said: "If they don't want to ride with all women, then it's not the kind of ride I want to be part of" 👏🏻

The number of people willing to sit down to dinner with the man who ordered Khashoggi's murder for financial profit is absolutely disgusting. Tim Cook and Jensen Huang signaling they'll look the other way for a deal.

It’s extremely funny that Republicans go to “nobody’s perfect” to describe a rapist

In Memory of Jamal Khashoggi 🙏🕊️ 2018 #Khashoggi

What is Piggy Trump hiding?

Given this program existed, it makes it ridiculous to have to manually fill out customs cards with every place you traveled instead of having it automated for you... I guess foreign airlines weren't sharing it...

Trump defended Saudi Crown Prince Salman over the 2018 dismemberment killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, saying “things happen” and...he did not hold Salman responsible despite a U.S. intelligence report assessing the opposite. We knew Trump was on board with murder.

LLMs are sloppy. No one should ever think their corpus is limited because no one thought to limit the training corpus in the first place. Using LLMs for a kid's toy is sloppy programming without use intent. This is why I will always miss Google Assistant. *That's* building with intent.

DHS disavows this is an ICE agent. But we know they lie and that the police didn't start him for impersonating an officer. The lawyer should make him submit his badge and get it on record.

Middle-aged cishet white man stealing queer music to entertain fascists.

“Now the black book is under your direct control. So why haven’t you released the names of Epstein’s co-conspirators in the rape and sex trafficking of young women and girls?” Rep Jamie Raskin to Kash Patel @raskin.house.gov bsky.app/profile/ifin... bsky.app/profile/rask... bsky.app/profile/marc...

“You are hiding the Epstein files, Mr. Patel. You are part of the cover up.” Representative Dan Goldman @repdangoldman.bsky.social @thepoliticschicks.bsky.social:

I will say again that it has been just *beyond* hammered home for me that not only do we not live in a meritocracy, we live in an economic and sociopolitical order that actively rewards avarice, incompetence, unkindness, dishonesty. And tbh that makes me feel better about my lack of success.

The clip where Trump earned his new nickname of Piggy. He's gonna be vile like that, he's going to now have to live with being called that. Why do this? Because it upsets him and if he is upset, he wastes more of his time with that instead of trying to think of new ways to starve children.

The same journalist who watched Israel and the US kill 245 Palestinian journalists without objection? The same journalists who watched Sam Husseini get dragged out by security for asking Blinken about the genocide? Those journalists?
