Researchers pointed a satellite dish at the sky for 3 years and monitored what unencrypted data it picked up. The results were shocking: They obtained thousands of T-Mobile users' phone calls and texts, military and law enforcement secrets, much more: www.wired.com/story/satell... 🧵👇

I have been waiting for this @ninaburleigh.bsky.social piece on Laura Loomer, and it did not disappoint. Excellent piece. newrepublic.com/article/2016...

If you haven't seen it yet, it's a good night to watch FISH WAR, the award-winning 2024 documentary about Northwest Tribes defending their treaty fishing rights through years of civil disobedience protest.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm. The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now! Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows. FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it. The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait. At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

It's hard to help Americans left behind because so much of US identity is rooted in individualism. The average American conservative holds all three positions at once: — Virtue signals about supporting US manufacturing — Against raising the minimum wage — Buys foreign imports because they're cheap

portland continues to serve up a protest that confuses the feds and totally disrupts the false narrative they're pushing via propaganda channels...

WSJ reports that Ghislaine Maxwell is treated like a VIP guest at a five-star resort in her new minimum-security Club Fed prison. She recently received a special visitor, and the entire facility was placed on lock-down while the guest was there so that no one could see who she or he was. Creepy.

I sometimes joke that I was trained by the jesuits. As a punk rock dropout I met the bad-assed Michael Czerny who advised us about political organizing. He faced down death squads in El Salvador. He married my wife and I. He is the pope's right hand. www.thelettersfromleo.com/p/meet-the-j...

I have always loved @propublica.org's mission statement. It speaks to method as much as mission, and does not shrink from describling their journalism as a moral undertaking. www.propublica.org/about/

Don Winslow I think Democrats should implement this nationwide at all protests. A competent attorney with a bullhorn directly communicating to law enforcement and the surrounding cameras. This is a VERY smart idea.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

You all are so relentlessly insufferable. (not Kevin) STOP GATEKEEPING PROTEST THATS NOT HOW PROTEST WORKS THE MORE PROTEST THE BETTER THE MORE KINDS OF PROTEST THE BETTER the same people screaming “do something!” also screaming “not like that!” Y’all are shooting yourselves in the foot.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Send every ICE employee to the fucking Hague.
