NEW As usual for major news events, disinformation on social media is running unchecked during the ICE protests in LA So people are turning to chatbots like Grok and ChatGPT for fact checking The problem is, the bots are making the situation much worse www.wired.com/story/grok-c...

Tanks rolling through the nation's capital. The president explicitly threatening peaceful, lawful protesters. On the other coast, the US Marines deployed on US soil against the American people. Just another Tuesday in Trump's America.

"Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” has $185bn for ICE, which is more than the annual military budgets of the UK and France combined. Wherever ICE raids trigger protests, Trump can send in the troops." My column. www.ft.com/content/3d6c...

FTC's latest move is to see how many trans kids they can kill. This is dangerous and beyond stupid, and way beyond anything the FTC is supposed to have authority over.

As you may know, I have stopped using Twitter, and have decided to reproduce some of my more memorable threads here for posterity. Here’s one I hold wrote after a particularly engaging swordfighting lesson. Buckle up, swordfighting fans, because I have studied my Agrippa! [BIG ASS THREAD]

If we ever get out of this, people need to be prosecuted for ordering the Marines into LA.

A few words about “peaceful protests.” 1. At least 5% of people are uncontrollable assholes and will behave badly in any situation, let alone a high-tension one. So a large protest without ANYONE throwing shit, yelling slurs or for violence, etc. is likely not achievable. /1

1. In a major ruling, a federal court has ruled that Trump's executive orders banning funding to orgs that promote "gender ideology" is likely unconstitutional. This will help protect or restore funding for LGBT centers who are plaintiffs. Subscribe to support our journalism. Order inside story.

New from 404 Media: here's our report on the aircraft circling above the LA protests. Local, state, DHS, military all flew. Left: aircraft from air base. Right: a distinctive high altitude/hexagonal flight pattern, looks like a Predator drone (it flew to border after) www.404media.co/dhs-black-ha...

This is exactly what happened to me. Watching Democratic Leadership spend all of 2024 telling us that electing Trump would be the end of the world, and then waking up in 2025 to find out they didn’t actually care, that did it.

I'm a believer in nonviolent resistance for moral reasons, and I think it can be incredibly powerful when well-planned and sustained, but don't tell me violence doesn't work. The people successfully rolling back my rights were sending bomb threats to children's hospitals.

We call for the immediate release of our brother David Huerta of @seiuca.bsky.social from ICE custody & demand any pending charges against him be dropped. Pres Huerta was exercising his 1st amendment rights & advocating for working people when he was violently assaulted by masked ICE agents 1/4

Remember, folks - Anyone on here who is advocating for violent acts in the immediate future against identifiable individuals or groups is functionally a fed. Whether they know it or not.

STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN was released 43 years ago this week. Acclaimed as the best entry in the Star Trek film series, and featuring one of the biggest movie deaths, the story behind the scenes doesn’t believe in no-win scenarios… 1/59

Less than 45 minutes after President Donald Trump thanked the National Guard "for a job well done!" Mayor Karen Bass clarified on social media "the National Guard has not been deployed in the City of Los Angeles."

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Maybe it’s not people speaking truth causing outrage…maybe it’s the actual outrageous tactics being used for mass deportation 🤔

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

Let’s be very clear: Los Angeles is the perfect place for this to play out for the Trumpists. The Trumpists hate California and hate Los Angeles and a vast amount of their base feels the same — even the Trumpists here, who wallow in hating the place they live. /1

This is a BSG quote I've thought about a lot in recent years, as French law enforcement has become increasingly militarized, and I found myself and my son gassed during a completely peaceful and quiet protest (for a social subject).
