“If there are two and if they’re unaware that I am there, they meet each other in the passage, pause as if exchanging news, then go their own ways home.” —excerpt from “Kronos” by Joshua Mehigan

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

There are 900 US protests on Sa 4/19. If you loathe the current administration, you'll want to find one & go register your opinion loudly. If you are happy right now, I have no idea what to say to you, except I hope you soon see the president for the circus grifter he is.

Language used by individuals associated with the federal government who deported people without trial or due process to a concentration camp in El Salvador, defying a court order, has a specific resonance that, historically, has been used to change regime type.

The State Department was set to buy $400 million worth of armored Teslas from Elon Musk. But after a report from Drop Site News exposed the massive conflict of interest, the department quietly deleted the word “Tesla” and changed the $400 million line item to a generic “armored electric vehicles.”
