"Face-recognition cameras set for use by police nationwide. "Ministers will pave the way for the widespread introduction of live facial recognition cameras by publishing for the first time nationwide guidance on their use." [Times]

They're *all* cashing in on it

It was @mark-carney.bsky.social who did this, almost immediately upon taking office and @rechievaldez.bsky.social said nothing. In fact most Canadians don’t know he is starving Inuit children on purpose while you tell everyone what a good man he is. A man that takes food from children. #cdnpoli

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Surprising headline in the Mail today

Without robust uptake of effective vaccines, children will continue to suffer and die needlessly. A large measles outbreak in Indonesia resulted in 2000 infections and 17 children dying. Mass vaccination campaign now underway. This was avoidable! www-pbs-org.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.pbs....

When a concerned Albertan raised concerns about vulnerable Albertans being treated fairly by an Alberta Police force… Bruce McAllister cut her mic and told her to leave. This is the UCP’s “consultation”. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

The Coates-Klein debate (and meta-debate) just reinforces my belief that we elevated the wrong MLK passage. Not the optimistic “content of their character” I Have A Dream speech. But the “white moderate … [who] advises the Negro to wait for a ‘more convenient season’” Letter From Birmingham Jail.

Stuff him in a locker proper. Newsom understands the assignment.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Matt Walsh advocates for mass murdering people with schizophrenia by convicting them of who knows what and then killing them. This is political violence btw.

One factor that creates additional angst about the tech bros surveillance state Is the deep fake/AI technology rise simultaneously

Can you imagine the disdain that our military generals must feel being lectured to by a rank amateur & a corrupt pedophile con man about how to teach their men to be more MANLY? These morons sure have some balls to presume they are even 1/10 the man each of them are. youtu.be/hTgQRv3BRfg?...

I can't get over how weird this photo is. I love that someone in England captioned it: "Darling, be a dear and DO click on the floor lamp."

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

Trump’s increasingly bizarre behavior can no longer be attributed to a calculated “strategy.” Why isn’t the media reporting on Trump’s growing dementia? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/why-isnt-the-media-reporting-on-trumps-d1e

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

If we had leaders with balls the entire world would just sanction the 🇺🇸 and be done with it. Stop trading with a mad king and his collapsing empire, he has no clothes.

Loss of historic buildings cannot be undone. Britain reached the peak power during the Victorian period & it is critical that the major edifices of that period are conserved & protected. It’s interesting that those who want to save racist statues, are uninterested in these architectural masterpieces

Stop consuming American news it will make you brain dead, they lie to their people on an unimaginable scale. Imagine calling that a “peace deal?”

It’s called colonial authoritarianism. The neoliberal Canada govt is worried what the ‘mother country’ might think… Sad to see such cultural cringe. The only thing is, the more they try to censor free speech the more people hear about it.

One of the few vaguely encouraging things about this is that these assholes so clearly have absolutely no understanding of people or social or economic dynamics outside of basically local linearity and they genuinely think they can just change the TT algorithm and magically change minds

BREAKING: “Make no mistake, if we need to confront planes in NATO airspace without permission, then we will do so" Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper also called Russian aircraft entering NATO airspace "reckless, dangerous provocation"

⚡️Zelensky calls for closing Baltic Sea for Russia over drone incursions. "There is growing evidence that Russia may have used tankers in the Baltic Sea to launch drones — the drones that caused major disruption in Northern Europe," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
