“Former superpower”

That's why Palantir's co-founder and Trump's megadonors are behind a super PAC that's spending millions to defeat our campaign. So, judge me by my enemies. And if you're with me, please join the team: alexbores.nyc

Here's the truth: Under the Obama administration, I took a job at Palantir. I quit under Trump 1.0 because of the company's work with ICE. I walked away from a career I worked hard to build and, frankly, a life-changing amount of money.

The AI revolution is here and America needs a plan to meet the moment. Today, I'm announcing a National AI Policy Framework for Congress, which would give you power, protection, and a stake in the AI economy. Read the framework here: alexbores.nyc/ai-framework

Hi! Alex Bores here! The AI billionaires are spending $10 million against my campaign. Follow us and tell your friends to help us fight back!

Bores: That’s not to say there aren’t some benefits to AI, but there needs to be reasonable regulation. They look at D.C., and with the exception of Bernie Sanders and a few others, mostly they see people either not doing anything or just cheering on the industry….

cool, cool. so we are sort of like citizens, but not really?

🚨BREAKING: An election-denying former Donald Trump campaign staffer who was subpoenaed by the FBI over his role in the attempt to steal the 2020 election is now taking credit for writing the sweeping voter suppression bill passed by the House Wednesday that could disenfranchise millions.

NEWS: Goldman Sachs’ top lawyer Kathryn Ruemmler has RESIGNED after newly released emails exposed a years-long personal relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — including advising him on handling sex crime accusations, media scrutiny, and accusers.

🚨 ICE is authorized to covertly infiltrate and interact with social media accounts under a new program called "masked engagement," per documents leaked to me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/exclusive-...

🚨In December 2016, Epstein invited Bill Gates to his island and informed him that “new administration people” were visiting. This was sent exactly one month before Trump was inaugurated for his first term.

Remember when Pam Bondi sold between $1 million & $5 million in Trump Media (DJT) stock back on April 2, 2025— The same day Trump announced new tariffs during a “Liberation Day” press conference held after markets closed — & then (DJT) fell 13% in the following days

WSJ reports: Whistleblower complaint that has stalled under Gabbard pertains to Jared Kushner. About an intercepted call that "at least in part concerned issues related to Iran" in which 2 people talk about Kusher with allegations that "would be significant if verified." www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Unbeknownst to most people, the GOP’s “Save America Act” would establish voter purge programs using data systems that experts say are unreliable. These systems reek of DOGE & thus of Elon Musk who is *heavily* promoting the Act on X. 1/ www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

Swarms of bots linked to IP addresses in Lanzhou, China are absolutely flooding the internet. An absolutely fascinating story from our Made in China newsletter this week, by @zeyiyang.bsky.social

A Kafkaesque saga in which the government has failed to produce critical video footage from an ICE detention facility has reached new levels of absurdity. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports. Read here: www.404media.co/government-l...

Today my students asked about AI advertising to student populations/campuses and I recommended that they read tech bro rhetoric about AI while swapping out "AI" for the terms "slavery," "pollution," "billionaire profits," or "deep state surveillance," and we had a great time. Highly recommend.

Alternatively: We are imposing new requirements to private businesses that will discourage them from serving people on SNAP.

I want to see this grinning, soulless ghoul in an orange jumpsuit.

BREAKING: Judge Timothy Kelly, a Trump appointee, blocks the Trump admin's efforts to transfer people whose death sentences Biden commuted to the "most restrictive prison in the federal system" (ADX Florence) — regardless of individualized assessments — during litigation.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

“Russia’s South Caucasus.” Something has gone seriously wrong at the Washington Post

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle. It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

Uniswap off-chain order routing of a security via RFQ on an ATS sounds a lot like the facility of an exchange....but what do I know? Another win for "decentralization." www.theblock.co/post/389421/...

NEW: Arkansas bars public officials who've been appointed by the governor to seek a full term for their position. The 2 justices appointed by Governor Sanders are using a way around that — they're just running for each other's seats. I wrote on Arkansas' supreme court races coming up in March:

Why are ICE agents indistinguishable from the worst criminals?

Chris Christie: So many of my fellow party members come up to me…in the green room at ABC, they'll say, 'You're so brave. That's so great. I totally agree with you. Trump's nuts.' ... Then on camera to be interviewed, and they go, ‘The greatest president since Abraham Lincoln.’ ...

Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

In the Friday video to staff, Karp argued that contracting clients planning to break the law don't buy Palantir products—because they're so good and that makes it harder for them to hide illegal stuff... www.wired.com/story/palant...

Flashback to how these same folks reacted to vaccine cards...

I just published: The Taken Inside the ICE Detention Pipeline for US Citizens and Residents: From Minnesota to Texas Documented through court records. Including worms in food, sewage water flooding into eating areas, returned to Minnesota in chains and shackles after courts order release, more.

An Irish man held by ICE for five months despite having a valid work permit and no criminal record says he fears for his life and has appealed for help from Ireland’s government. “I’m not in fear of the other inmates. I’m afraid of the staff. They’re capable of anything.”

This is the FBI’s list of “Prominent Names” it was tracking in the Epstein Case. This list appears in this slide show, FBI email correspondence, and FBI tip sheets — all of which I saw unredacted today. Believe the survivors. You can see this file on DOJ’s website www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

Meanwhile in Russia: both hosts loudly interrupted panelists who conceded that Russia isn't actually winning in Ukraine. Participants argued about whether liquidating Zelensky would change things for the better and urged Trump to kidnap or assassinate him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsdS...

SCOOP: Tensions at Palantir have grown in recent weeks over the company's work with ICE. On Friday, CEO Alex Karp tried to calm concerns in an hourlong video that offered few specifics—instead offering NDAs to workers who want to understand how it's empowering ICE. www.wired.com/story/palant...

The purpose is to disincentivize investments in vaccine development

in a text string after the shooting, a fellow agent told Exum he's a "legend" "Beers on me"

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

No surprise there.

"All of these individual systems together are part of a bigger picture of mass surveillance that's at an unprecedented level because of the total control from top to bottom of the infrastructure."
