wild times. attorneys general co-opting environmental justice language, accusing #BigTech of greenwashing bc they "claim the tech companies are pushing utilities toward “harmful net-zero goals,” and this has led to coal and gas plants shutting their doors" www.wyomingpublicmedia.org/natural-reso...

congrats to the virginia Dem establishment. the same ones taking money from ICE contractors.

Any business in our communities that welcomes this president tonight will be subject to an immediate boycott.

Last night DC neighbors showed up at a police checkpoint at 14th & V ST. NW with handwritten signs warning drivers to avoid the block. After realizing that the community was successfully diverting all traffic, agents packed up the checkpoint and left. #WeKeepUsSafe

Are you at #NetRootsNation? Featuring MJ's @dannyfied.bsky.social, we're joining @mpowerchange.bsky.social, @kairosfellows.bsky.social, & #NoAzureforApartheid to talk how Big Tech is a crucial partner in Israel's genocide in Gaza. We'd love to see you TOMORROW @ 1PM! www.netrootsnation.org/agenda/

Freaking out....and excited about data centers.

oh jfc. the way people are fighting to "women's safety" the Internet to death is infuriating. More surveillance doesn't make women safer, dammit. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

For all of the purported advancements over the years, latent fingerprint analysis remains extra stupid.

Also: I love it when “progressive” prosecutors rely on forensic techniques they know from their own pre-PP professional experience produce false convictions. Why not have the guts to tell cops that overconfidence is the opposite of fairness in criminal courts?

Trump’s #BigBadBill has officially passed. Our Sr. Research Specialist, Jai Dulani, breaks down what this massive investment in surveillance, deportations, and expansion of power to the Tech Broligarchy means for our people in @techpolicypress.bsky.social: www.techpolicy.press/how-trumps-b...

It’s official — Trump’s #BigBadBill has passed, selling out our communities to usher in the largest wealth transfer to billionaires in our lifetime. As corporate-state collusion accelerates, our fight against #BigTech has never been more essential. mediajustice.org/news/trumps-...

ICYMI: Elon Musk's xAI’s gas turbines get official approval from Memphis, Tennessee, even as civil rights groups prepare to sue over alleged Clean Air Act violations. "Over 1,000 people submitted public comments demanding protection and got passed over for a billionaire’s ambitious experiment.”

It’s official: Today the Senate voted 99-1 to remove the #AIMoratorium from Trump’s #BigBadBill! Here’s what this means for our communities: 👂⬇️

Stopped by the (closed) Free Library on the Parkway to check in on the striking library workers there. They’re mad! “The mayor gave herself a 9% raise! Why don’t we deserve the same?”

The entire Latino population in the U.S. is 65 million. She means all of us.

wait, would a multi-billion dollar corporation teaming up with an authoritarian president to crush public opposition be good or bad, we can't tell

tech companies prove time and time again they have little to no understanding of how boots on the ground medical practice and hospital administration actually works, but National Nurses United do and they want absolutely no part of this www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nation...

A community of Black coders and tech leaders are creating programs to protect and inform marginalized groups about how sharing data is being used: in algorithmic biases, misinformation, and the ability to predict locations and potentially share with law enforcement.

ICE arrested a 6-year-old boy with leukemia at immigration court. His family is suing.

Marchers from across the world descended on Cairo for the Global March to Gaza, with the goal of crossing Egypt’s Rafah border & breaking Israel’s humanitarian blockade on Gaza, @jennamtphoto.bsky.social reported on the ground. Though the march ended in violence, activists remain undeterred.

everyone should know Palantir, what it does, and who’s behind its violence. government officials have been colluding with war profiteers like Palantir to track and target migrants through contracts with DHS/ICE for years.

i don’t understand how @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social gets away with this chatgpt-ass statement on immigration. if he wants to run on Connolly’s legacy, people should know the Va Dem establishment’s longtime ties to ICE contractors, including MVM Inc. paid to execute family separation at the border ‼️

The Los Angeles Tenant's Union is calling for action on July 1st, "We call on our members and supporters: don’t go to work, don’t take public transportation and do not do business. Join on the ground efforts in your neighborhood. 🚨ICE OUT OF LA! NOT ONE MORE DEPORTATION AND NOT ONE MORE EVICTION!"

join us tomorrow 6/18 at 7pm ET for a Digital Dialogue with organizers from LA where communities are fighting back against ICE’s violence and to hear how Muslim communities, students, and activists are resisting the Trump regime’s aggression against our collective rights bit.ly/MJ_digitaldialogues

i'm forever grateful to @translash.org @imarajones.bsky.social for being crucial in my personal understanding of the forces fueling a violent, patriarchal system that's harmed me/my loved ones. we need to support platforms like these and trans leaders to defend democracy and get to real liberation.

patriarchal system doing what it does www.ffxnow.com/2025/06/17/c...

We can’t afford to house or feed people but we can pay for this? Our politicians are cutting people’s access to health care, food, social security, disaster relief, and more, all while pouring money into cops and the military to terrorize and brutalize our communities. This all, too, is violence.

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

Protesters are back this morning outside 55 E Monroe in Chicago, blocking the garage entrance & exits used by ICE to access immigration court. For weeks now, agents have been arresting immigrants showing up for their hearings. Last week, protesters’ presence shut down court twice.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered 700 military personnel to be deployed to Florida, Louisiana, and Texas for deportation operations.

a truth about so-called #AI it's NOTHING without OUR DATA. that's why tech billionaires wanna track + monetize our every move. “AI without data is like life without oxygen, it doesn't exist,” said Brian Marshall, global co-head of software investment banking at Citi. www.reuters.com/business/ung...
