The regime deployed Nat Guard troops to a LE "drug raid" in CA where it is legal to grow at any scale (w/ license). This flashes a lot of warning lights re: use of Cannabis as a wedge/pretext to violate Posse Comitatus Act to get Federal troops into blue states- www.justsecurity.org/115545/feder...

Very happy to see my invited article for Nature is out in the new issue. I wrote about computer vision, the AI surveillance industrial complex, and brilliant new research that shows just how deeply embedded the field of computer vision is in the surveillance pipeline. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The literal Democratic Party account is endorsing Zohran Mamdani.

This is the slippery slope New reporting on use of federalized National Guard in what appears like DEA-led drug bust, no protesters in sight, far outside of LA @lizagoitein.bsky.social has very sharp analysis on why this appears illegal on all counts (including Trump’s own presidential memorandum)

Someone finally saying it: the SCrOTUS is a Collaborationist body legislating from the bench on behalf of Fascism

One of the most important fronts in a multi-front conflict:

The New York Times tomorrow morning: "Is Eric Adams' indictment really that bad? Rethinking the complicated but charming mayor."

An Indian-Muslim socialist who is openly pro Palestine is going to be mayor of a city that is bigger than 38 states

Money only gets you so far. Money is beatable.

NYC just showed the country and the world how moral courage, selflessness, & COALITION POLITICS can beat Fascism.

When we run leftist candidates, those candidates win. Because leftist values ARE the values the people believe in. Respond to. Show up for. Whatever the donor class may tell you, and however hard they may fight us, remember that. These are the policies that WIN.

Even in the wake of Citizens United, there *is* a point at which a vastly bigger paid media war chest does not necessarily correlate with winning. That is something worth remembering and studying about tonight and the Wisconsin state supreme court race.

Congratulations to the 13 brave women who risked their careers and reputations to stand up to Cuomo’s sexual predation

It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

"GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE"

HELL YEAH

Fuuuukkk remembering the completely crazy irregularities of the 2016 Dem Primaries in NYC and nationally.

What am *I* up to, later this week? Oh, NBD, just having Bluesky celeb and badass @leahlitman.bsky.social give a talk for free, online, this Thursday, and every book purchased supports my org #L4GG to fight for the #ruleoflaw and your rights I guess you could come If you’re into being cool

After calling Trump's strike on Iran unconstitutional, Hakeem Jeffries votes to table impeachment bid

This is an unappreciated downside of the Iranian airstrikes: it revealed capabilities of the MOD and the B-2 itself (both radar x-section and actual combat load/range) and, despite everything working perfectly, appears to have failed to destroy the program despite being built for this use

Cool-a handy "to be Primaried" list

Kids in Bed-Stuy rallied last week to save the protected bike lane on Bedford Avenue that they use to get to school, see friends, and just have fun. Here's what they had to say about Mayor Adams's plan to replace it with an unprotected, unsafe lane: youtube.com/shorts/7roxj...
