ICE crossed a line in LA

Listen y’all, a lot is going to happen in the next 24 hours. It is deeply important to honor the work of people pushing back on am armed occupation of Los Angeles. That is going to have lots of possibilities.

more from the Los Angeles reddit Stay safe, protect your neighbors

ICE arrested 36 Chinese & Taiwanese immigrants after raiding an LA nightclub. That's them, ziptied on the sidewalk. Yo Asians—if you weren't already outraged and mobilizing on behalf of others, guess what? That "First they came for the..." poem has gotten up to us. www.latimes.com/california/s...

One apparent reason why GOP legislators are getting cold feet about proof of citizenship laws for voter registration: They’re worried about disenfranchising their own voters, advocates say. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Matching up to 2,500 USD to Immigrant Defenders Law Center, for the first people to DM or reply with receipts. They're EIN 47-4473312 for quickly looking up if you have a DAF.

Tom Homan: We are making Los Angeles safer. Mayor Bass should be thanking us. She says they are going to mobilize—guess what? We are already mobilizing. We are going to bring the National Guard in tonight

If you live near Fox Hills Mall and don’t want to run into ICE, don’t go there today!

BREAKING: Border Patrol is firing gas at anti-ICE protesters in Paramount, California right now. Not a warzone. Not a riot. A protest. And they’re treating it like combat. This is fascism in broad fucking daylight.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

*explaining to my son my idea of having a giant dog rescue where all the dogs are trained to sniff out various diseases and you can pay $100 to walk through and have a dog diagnose you by scent* my son: you could call it “plague dogters” me: I have given birth to a genius

wonder how the “our ICE contract was only $200,000” githubbers feel these days

Generative AI can't really go forward until a number of legal matters are settled. This week OpenAI was ordered by the court to preserve ALL chat logs including those they promised to delete, due to the NYT lawsuit. The court specifically wants to know if END USERS of LLMs are asking for content

American antisemitism isn’t people defending Palestinian lives. It’s people in my mentions defending doing business with a man who literally did the Nazi salute — TWICE — at the inauguration of a white supremacist he bought the White House for. You guys. You’re the problem.

I think they all agreed to not win any more elections 🙃

This is the edict of tech today. Give me your data, and I'll have the authority to tell you how to live your life.

Hey y'all, I'm looking for new fractional opportunities! The last time I was publicly looking for roles, a friend said: "Hiring managers, this is like a Kevin Durant (circa 2016) free agency." One of my cofounders is always telling me I'm too humble so let me brag a little for a sec 😊

While going through multiple interview rounds with a company, has anyone ever asked if it's okay to record the conversations? Or at least use a tool like Granola, for personal reflection and self-improvement?

Every morning my almost 3yo takes on a new persona as she wakes up. She is usually a bird, a kitty or a dog. She has the rest of the family pretend to be whatever she is. Lately, she's been into dinosaurs and pretending to be a T-Rex So, she's been calling me Mommy T-Rex. It so silly and so cute 🥰

I've gotten a couple of ad requests from this company to promote them in Diversify Tech. And I had to laugh 😅

One thing that constantly blows my mind is that Tesla *investors* never focus on the fact that NO ONE IS BUYING TESLAS

San Antonio police have walked back on a previous statement that there was no evidence of a hate crime in the killing of actor Jonathan Joss, with the police chief now calling the statement “premature.”

I hate that people keep saying “the girls are fighting” in reference to the fighting clowns “Girls” are way less emotional.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

Lawsuit: Pres. Trump and Elon Musk's DOGE and HHS used "hopelessly error-ridden" data to fire 10,000 workers - arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

This is correct

I wish the Democrats were capable of capitalizing on this degueulasse moment.

I don't want to hear ANYTHING about 'this is their plan' - it is NOT. Please be serious.
