ChatGPT’s new Atlas browser doesn’t just see what you read — it remembers it. @eff.org’s Lena Cohen showed me it even logged “memories” of her looking for *abortion care* and her doctor’s name. Out-surveils even Chrome. My @washingtonpost.com column: wapo.st/49bOcVC

"The DOJ will continue engaging tech companies to *eliminate platforms* . . ." This is your daily reminder Bondi specifically, and MAGA generally, spent the last 4 years accusing the Biden admin of jawboning tech companies to take down content in violation of the 1A.

I'm sorry, is the Trump Administration talking to a tech platform? Is it...requesting content moderation?

As I observed in my Substack Round Up this past week, the endgame of the military strikes against drug cartels in international waters is to lay the groundwork to use lethal military force against Americans at home. Pay attention open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

Trump (1) reveals he doesn't know what habeas corpus is and (2) punts to Noem, who famously revealed her own ignorance at a Senate hearing when she defined habeas corpus as "a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country." www.npr.org/2025/05/20/n...

Fuck Trump" is protected speech and the ICE agents who tried to detain him for shouting it are the ones engaged in domestic terrorism here.

I’d never seen this one.

"Joe Biden is a bumbling, dementia-filled, Alzheimer's, corrupt tyrant who should honestly be put in prison and/or given the death penalty for his crimes against America." -Charlie Kirk (07/24/23)

Just deleted a post. Earlier reports had Tyler Robinson as a registered Republican. NBC and WSJ now reporting he was not registered with a political party. I don’t want to spread misinfo, so post deleted.

If the Kirk killer turns out to be a Groyper, as now seems likely (and was always a very good possibility), can we impeach Donald Trump for hanging out with Nick Fuentes and helping to get Kirk killed?

A society murdering its own future

An instantly-leaked internal bulletin at the politicized federal law enforcement agencies just so happens to say what the Trump admin and its allies want it to say. This is how it works in authoritarian regimes, the cops are too busy with propaganda and repression to actually solve crimes.

How Charlie Kirk practiced politics

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

"When do we get to use the guns? To k*ll these people" asks Charlie Kirk supporter (2021) Universal warning

OREM, Utah (AP) — Person suspected in fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk now in custody, FBI director says.

Where? There’s a reason they’re saying this on the other platform and not here.

Elon Musk, who has sued advertisers for not advertising on his platform because of its content, is now suggesting that a television channel lose advertisers because of its content.

the people who mocked and made up shit about the attack on paul pelosi have thoughts about decorum and we should definitely take them very very seriously

When a right-wing man murdered Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, progressives asked MAGA to tone down the rhetoric to prevent more violence. Within hours of Kirk’s murder, motive still unknown, the right is demanding that the government wage a campaign of violence against their enemies.

The price of liberty

Judging by the shamefully opportunistic & politicizing rhetoric of some rightwingers on Twitter, & their cynical use of Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder for political point scoring, it’s almost as if Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman wasn’t murdered by a Trump-voting MAGA maniac just 12 weeks ago.

Kirk is dead.

And now we're walking back the shooter being in custody www.deseret.com/utah/2025/09...

CNN is reporting that the suspect who shot Charlie Kirk did so from a university building 200 yards away. If true, that means he was farther away than the Trump assassin in Pennsylvania and farther away than Lee Harvey Oswald was when he shot Kennedy.

The Supreme Court just ruled this meme is constitutional.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court — over the objection of Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson — allows the Trump administration’s racial profiling of people working certain types of jobs in its immigration raids during litigation.

One problem with being on Twitter is that Elon Musk constantly rejigs the site to push his views. He cannot be sidelined when he owns the underlying system. His manipulation of the Twitter AI to match his views illustrates this point. Via @kateconger.com www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/t...

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

Oh look, ICE is copying literal Nazi recruiting propaganda again. The poster on the right is for the Volkssturm, the Nazi militia of older men and boys established during the final months of World War II.

Just in case it’s not already clear that ICE is a white supremacist thug army, Homeland Security is recruiting with a “defend your culture” slogan.

Again, the voice in this clip is Shia LaBeouf's character Boyd "Bible" Swan in the WWII film "Fury." What remains unclear: was the Trump admin given permission to use that content (it apparently comes down to who owns the film's "clip rights"), and, also do they *need* that permission?
