Hey, so people who share from Tiktok, there' a massive privacy stealing measure they have. Any links you share from t.tiktok.com or tiktok.com/t/ are actually shortlinks embedded with your user tracking data. Found out when sharing one from Discord to another app caused a friend to get DMd from

Listening to the appeals court asking questions about the Portland National Guard deployment dispute, and I'm struck that the 504 sit ins would have been infinitely stronger of a 'rebellion' than what's happening at ICE. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/504_Sit...

hey, wasn't Andy Ngo's prior lawyer elevated to a position in the DoJ specifically to defend the rights of Christians that have been persecuted for their beliefs? Think I found a worthy case for her to investigate. What's that? The department she works for is -defending- the attacks? Huh, funny.

www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1... Buried later in this is what I expected California to do: They are now asking the courts to intervene in their case where the courts sided with Trump on the need for the Guard in California, claiming they can't be that needed if Trump is moving them out of state'

So let me get this straight, Portland is a war zone that requires hundreds of federalized soldiers to patrol, entirely focused around one city block where the ICE detention facility is. The same block that was able to successfully host a public protest while Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem relaxed

Oh, they really did not take the TRO news well. Also, it's a girl?

Here's where my brain sits. The judge just said 'no federalized troops from any state or DC. Guam and Puerto Rico aren't states but have territory based National Guard units. Are they going to be that stupid?

75% of the National Guard troops deployed to Los Angeles said they will not re-enlist due to the deployment davisvanguard.org/2025/07/trum...

Serious question for Katie, how is someone supposed to apologize to their victim if they didn't show up to court and there's a no contact order? And why do you think they would be sympathetic to their mother when your boss is own reporting shows that they despise everything about their child.

Sentence handed down. Actually stronger than predicted, but not by much. 12 months bench probation, 7 days jail (suspended), 24 hours community service, no contact with victim Almosa and no carrying of mace/pepper spray/deleterious agents during probation. More will come out later.

Dictation software automatically having filters on curse words Is literally ableism - It treats people who can't type for one reason or another like they must be children who need to be censored, and forces me to use a keyboard or mouse which causes me physical pain so I can say fuck you to that.

During Q1 of 2025, Portland Police Bureau responded to 1,000+ behavioral health calls, in addition to other crisis-related/mental health incidents, but Project Respond was called to assist just 118 times. Those familiar with Project Respond say it could have saved Damon Lamarr Johnson's life.

Not that it will change anything, but Andy Ngo keeps referring to Araoju as 'violent' It's worth noting that she was convicted for 'Attempted' assault. In the jury's view of the evidence ... she failed at being violent.

Verdict read after about 3 1/2 hours of deliberation Count 1: Assault in the Fourth Degree - Not guilty Alternative: Attempted Assault in the Fourth Degree - Guilty Count 2: Unlawful use of mace - Guilty Sentencing set for next Thursday. Will give a little more detail later.

We are now in the jury deliberations phase of this case, and may hear a verdict as soon as this afternoon. raindrop.works/2025/08/arao...

Day 2 of the Arajou trial has finished, moving fast as the state finds itself on shaky ground, riddled with allegations of shoddy police investigations and unreliable victim statements. Their chances rest on a sympathetic jury as the defense starts their case today raindrop.works/2025/08/araj...

I know this doesn't make a lot of sense right now, but I hope later tonight it will

Pre-trial motions in the Arajou case have finalized and the jury has been seated. Catch up with the case as we move into opening arguments here: raindrop.works/2025/08/araj...

We are back in the courthouse for the first official day of the Arajou trial. Andy Ngo made a mention of it last night, where it was immediately met with dozens of threatening messages towards Arajou, including desires of murder-sentence lengths of incarceration, if not capital punishment. For a

We're back on track. Missed a good bit of oral arguments in pre-trial, but I don't think any major rulings were made while I was incommunicado. Still have process concerns re: court access and disabled people, but that's a me thing to sort.

Massive hiccup with the court coverage today. Judge Brown apparently instituted a policy for her courtroom requiring me to request permission for electronic note taking the day before. Hard to do when the judge only got assigned the day before, and I didn't find out until I was out of time.

Sure seems like CECOT is a concentration camp by this definition.

Police officers will often interfere in strikes for the benefit of the company employing union members, while most other union-based companies will avoid doing business with that company (because you don't cross the picket line) That, to me, would answer that question.

BREAKING: in an exceedingly close call, judge Brown denies the dismissal motion, allows for speedy trial and prejudice claims to be brought back up after the state's prosecution has been put on notice. Post Millennial editor Andy Ngo, who has been targeting Isabel Araujo since before his self-

We are in the middle of lunch break in the Arajou dismissal motion, but as it sits, if the dismissal goes through it seems most likely it will be because of Post Millennial editor Andy Ngo and his photographer Katie Daviscourt. The current legal arguments are that because of the PM's photos in

If 'illegal aliens' are just a drain on taxpayers and don't pay taxes, then why do they have tax information to be handed over?

The hearing has been set for tomorrow late morning. Whether by fate or complete coincidence The omnibus hearing, which is a pretrial hearing to address various motions, is being heard by the same Judge Brown that had her hands tied in January forcing the dismissal. We will be on the ground tomorrow

I am sitting in court waiting for the docket on the Araujo case I mentioned last week. It's interesting how Andy Ngo (who's paranoia has devolved to the point of him calling a community free store an Antifa terrorism cell) suddenly brought the case up on his feed after his reporter Daviscourt noted

*EXCLUSIVE* Story upcoming. Local 'Antifa Supersoldier' Aspen seeks dismissal of protest pepper spray case after damning evidence of the DA's office hiding crucial evidence from the court and defense. Not an April Fool's joke.

5-day jail sentence. For abusing his official position and stealing from the people that he was hired to support.

The investigations found definitive proof that one particular cop was responsible for the inflammatory meme, and while Wheeler denounced its existence, he refused to do anything to actually hold the cop accountable.

As I looked more into the case of @alissaazar.bsky.social's dismissal, everything that I am seeing is telling me that the new DA, 'law and order' candidate Nathan Vasquez, wanted to continue prosecuting this case against a journalist. A January 22nd court filing by DDA Patel laid out 'updated

One of my friends has a grant from the #FDA to look at disparities in clinical trial research and just submitted a manuscript with the findings. She was told today by the collaborators from the #FDA to rescind it. #Censorhip has started, we are living in authoritarian government.

I think the ADL just confirmed they have no standing to determine if something is antisemitic or not.
