I've been exploring how easy it is for bad actors to use VEO 3 text to video generation to spread disinformation in a crisis. With the Iran war in the news, these kinds of AI videos could potentially fuel a crisis if they were to go viral at the wrong moment.

Mikayla Raines of Save A Fox rescue was on the autism spectrum. She dedicated her life to saving all kinds of animals. But online bullies decided to say awful things about her and she took it all to heart. She ended her life. She leaves a daughter, husband and countless animals. I'm devastated.

This is so tragic. Non-profit founder, animal rescuer, and YouTuber Mikayla Raines took her own life yesterday, at least partly as a result of cyberbullying.

Marco Rubio needs to be asked whether he believes his grandfather who remained in the U.S. after receiving a deportation order from our govt should have been treated the way the father of 3 Marines was treated by ICE this weekend in California. ASK HIM. Make him confront his lack of character.

JK Rowling explicitly calls on her followers to engage in vigilante actions against people they suspect are trans in bathrooms. This is incredibly dangerous and far more likely to result in violence against gender nonconforming cis women.

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Here's the truth about tax cuts for the rich. They explode the federal debt, fuel giant profits at the biggest firms and financial institutions, and stoke a surge in billionaire wealth but do nothing for average working people. Nothing trickles down.

N95 masks are PPE. They’re designed to protect the wearer from covid, airborne viruses, wildfire smoke & more. They’re a public health tool. Gaitors & bandanas are face coverings worn by ICE goons who want to conceal their identity because they’re kidnapping people They’re not the same.

I am getting multiple reports that the Trump admin is NOT complying with the court order requiring passport updates for transgender people. Some passport agencies are being told not to give trans people passports with their correct gender marker, for now.

The New York Times covers trans issues the way Fox News covers ICE protests. Both lead the country to believe there is a conflagration by highlighting a few fires over and over, while ignoring the fact that most people just want to live their lives without the government in their faces.

I need y'all to understand what the NYT, Dem donors, and centrists are doing here. They're pushing the narrative that trans people went too far and we deserve what is happening to us. It's pure victim blaming and it's not done yet, there's a Confessore piece in the works with the same framing.
