advertising technology in the 1990s: look at this “website” you can “surf”. it has an image of a cat on it advertising technology in the 2020s: you must adopt this now or die. we are going to completely kill you if you don’t download this app immediately

yeah it is critical that dems win the senate

So at the risk of maybe overreading this and making an educated guess, I think I can guess what specifically Wyden is talking about. I think it's about use of AI (LLMs) by FBI to surveil American communications without a warrant

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

I will never think of Elon Musk as anything other than a mass murderer for the USAID cuts. I’ve long felt he’s one of the most villainous people alive today, the real-life equivalent of a comically annoying and cruel supervillain

“It’s honestly been eye opening (in a bad way) to see how special interests work in our system” says the Head of Politics at Kalshi, which pays Donald Trump Jr. to sit on its advisory board and has spent over a million in lobbying over the past ~year.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir. The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell. Open letter linked + explainer 🧵1/ www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/gilea...

When Democrats retake the majority, there will be a lot of priorities. As long as I'm in the Senate, one of those priorities will be consequences and accountability for any member of this administration that commits war crimes.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

It’s such a laughably bad argument for the war on Iran to say “The people there want regime change.” I want regime change in the US, and I 100% do not want the US to be bombed. F off with garbage arguments.

I’m working on it

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.

Reflecting on the attack at Temple Israel.

The MacBook Neo is such an interesting machine that it coaxed a thousand-word-essay out of me: samhenri.gold/blog/2026031...

im just really fucking sick of spending my entire adult life lurching from one worldwide economic disaster to another all because people pretend republicans arent dumb as dog shit morons completely detached from reality

Sun Tzu (D-NY) - “When your enemy is making a mistake, fix it for him at great cost to yourself.”

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." - President Dwight D. Eisenhower

Attacks leave dead vs killed

This International Women's Day, please remember that trans women are women. Full stop. No qualifiers.

Public service announcement: this is a FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS Not an 'energy crisis'. People need energy: it keeps them alive. This is a crisis due to forced dependency on the most unreliable and unstable fuel product in human history. THIS IS A FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS.

New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...

Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

“Almost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.“ A double-tap strike on little girls at school.

MPD body cam footage from DOGE raid on US Institute of Peace RECEIVED 😎 I'll be watching and sharing news and takeaways in the coming days. Stay tuned!

no sorry we’re not doing this anymore. not for a volunteer army committing atrocities

don't look at the news. look at this

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

OpenAI posted the terms of the deal. Reveals that it absolutely does allow for domestic surveillance. EO 12333 is how the NSA hides its domestic surveillance by capturing communications by tapping into lines *outside the US* even if it contains info from/on US persons. openai.com/index/our-ag...

My statement on President Trump’s combat operations in Iran⬇️

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

Michiganders: MDOT signed a deal with CBP to let them install automated license plate readers on state land. This technology allows real-time tracking of people’s movements and whereabouts. It’s a disaster for our immigrant neighbors, and for our rights. Call and register your opposition. 1/2

NEW: Guards have taken away crayons, colored pencils & paper during recent room searches at Dilley, according to detainees and others. After one inspection, the children just “cried and cried and cried,” a mother said. The facility denies the claims. By @mckenziefunk.com @micarosenberg.bsky.social

To my trans folks online: no matter how many cowards you encounter or observe, you are, and have always been worth fighting for.

Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help. “A bunch of agents jump out and tackle him, essentially restraining him, and take him away...His six kids are now without their father." www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

THEY HAD THE “NO TAKE ONLY THROW” DOG MEME SIX THOUSAND YEARS AGO

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Guys I found the best Epstein Files email. The one that illuminates an elite class that's cocooned themselves into an unaccountable shell of wealth and privilege, fighting to protect their secrets and offenses. I could write a novel about this email. prospect.org/2026/02/17/e...

I know this makes me an extremist but I think our baby concentration camps should be abolished.

Incredible commentary from this Swiss announcer, who accurately characterizes the Israeli team as "Self-defined zionist to the core...who posted several messages in favour of the genocide in Gaza...calling it ‘the most morally just war in history.’” Solidarity to a real one.

This is one of those areas where California can (and will) hold the line, simply due to how many cars get sold in this state. I remember the smog as a kid, and I’m sure plenty of others do too. We’re not going back to that.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

This is a vivid, horribly relevant read. “She does not sleep well. And as you lift up her pajama top to check her rash one morning, you see that her breathing is labored, shadows pooling between her ribs when she sucks in air. You suffer an icy moment of realization: This is a medical crisis.”
