A Great Day in Heaven.

I saw chaos inside and outside of the ICE detention center Delaney Hall today. Detainees protesting the lack of due process, the disgusting food and poor treatment while their families and advocates stood outside calling for help. 1/4

Trump to cut $1 billion to California Medicaid for not institutionalizing the elderly & disabled. CA "In-home care" keeps people in their homes & out of care facilities. Trump, Vance, Oz & Republicans wants them put in expensive care facilities, out of sight & alone newrepublic.com/post/210384/...

From Telemundo: Maria de la Luz Loredo was detained in front of her young children after a traffic incident. The day after she was detained, her 17 yr old died in a tragic shooting. What ICE did next is inexcusable. They humiliated and denigrated her. #ProudBlue 📹: NowThisImpact/TT & IG

"Waymo has told advocates that expecting it to respect bike lanes is 'too high a bar' because customers expect to be dropped off in them." To be crystal clear, it's illegal for a car to be in a bike lane. It doesn't matter what Waymo's customers expect; the company shouldn't be doing it.

Tillis using his power to push back against Trump's attempt to weaponize the justice system against his perceived enemies. Of course Susan Collins could do the same to try to curb MAGA lawlessness. But she hasn't. Not once. No on anything. #MEpolitics

Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden. This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years. But he’s the one who is actually doing it.

A bunch of fucking people on the right are crying tonight about the results in Virginia. Y’all should take a moment and call your buddies who are the governor of Texas and Donald Trump. You’re a bunch of fucking losers. The voters have spoken. Unlike TX. Fuck around and find out.

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. They’re so arrogant and self-confident they don’t seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed. We must get rid of Palantir altogether. twitter-thread.com/t/2045574398...

Not a dime of taxpayer money or govt contracts should go to Palantir.

I see Republicans are very much in favor of DEI when it comes to digital blackface. Oh, NOW you want to include us, huh? But not on the jobsite, right? Best of luck with those midterms.

“…the backlash was so great that residents ousted half their city council after they approved a $6 billion data center development against the public will.”

ah

Maybe forcing people to build their creative careers on private online infrastructure that can and does collapse semi-regularly wasn't the best of ideas actually

It's hard to articulate the level of anger & rage I have about watching this happen. I first saw weev doxx people I love *TWENTY* years ago. I spoke to founders of multiple social networks about the risk of these people over 15 years ago. I wrote about it all a dozen+ years ago. They let it happen.

This is violence. Full stop.

Buried in Asheville city council's agenda for April 14 meeting is $1.1 million from the feds to massively ramp up APD surveillance of the public with a "real time intelligence center." At a time when even plenty of local governments are scaling back surveillance, #avlgov is escalating... 🧵 #avlnews

Markey: "They were planning an actual genocide -- a destruction of a civilization. That's why Trump should be impeached, that's why Democrats should file impeachment articles against Trump, that's why the 25th Amendment to remove me should be invoked."

Brutal.

Please call your US rep and senators. Yes, I know it can feel like screaming into a black hole. Still. Call them NOW. reps.fyi 202-224-3121

From my new piece concerning the Anthropic settlement: catvalente.substack.com/p/blood-mone...

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.

. Let’s talk about how they said ICE agents will still remain in the airport after TSA is fully restored. This is so they can privatize Security And continue to child traffic. GET THEM OUT NOW! #TSA #ICE .

Social movement scholar here to comment on No King again. a 🧵: These protests are important b/c: 1.) as sustained image events, protests offer evidence of continued disapproval of the direction the country is going and disavowal of the country's leadership.

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

DURBIN: How does taking dad from child dying of cancer qualify as a violent crime? NOEM: I don't know what you're speaking of D: Ruben Torres 2 weeks ago buried his daughter. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said, 'Please. My daughter is dying.' They deported him. Was he a violent criminal?

What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.

A former ICE agent is blowing the whistle: Academy training is "deficient & broken." He claims he was ordered to teach cadets to bypass the Constitution & enter homes without warrants. ICE reportedly cut 240 hours of legal, firearms, and use-of-force training.

We are appalled at the statement from Minnesota Mayor that ICE has left, and the minimizing of this MOMENT. Let's be crystal clear. DENYING THE PANDEMIC HAS DIRECTLY LEAD TO THIS FASCIST STATE OF AFFAIRS. FASCISTS REMAIN AS DOES THE PANDEMIC. Simping for capitalism is a terrible look in 2026.

South Korean President sentenced to LIFE IN PRISON for breaking with their constitution and using the military in a coup. WTF Congress DO YOUR JOB

I’m done hearing about the Epstein files, I want to hear about the Epstein trials.

What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses? Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards My new column on the camps www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

So Georgia sent a letter of reprimand? That’s it? newrepublic.com/post/206857/...

sometimes you need to go back to the wellspring for a full quaff of the coldest glacier … MC still means move the crowd, forget it at your peril. the rest of us mere mortals can only ever dream of speaking with such paralyzing authority an entire genre of human expression comes to heel forever.

Chatgpt has already pushed people to kill themselves and others. Did it push this teenager to do a mass shooting? www.wsj.com/us-news/law/... Bypass: archive.ph/EqNrW

Bands using SLOP for their lazy music videos, makes it clear to listeners you don't give a fuck and just want money.

There is a .000001% chance these men did not know. And if they didn't know, it's because they handed over control of their careers and their political decisions to lobbyists who not only do not give a damn about Americans, but prey upon us like vampires.

"Notable names include House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Martin Heinrich." HOW INTERESTING.

Trump illegally imposed billions in tariffs (taxes) on U.S. corporations. Much of those costs were passed onto consumers. The corporations might get their money back. You never will.
