A goon squad.

Thank you! Like I said before, MO HP and Shrewsbury and all other STL municipalities with light black on black lettering to disguise your vehicles, we cannot decipher IF YOU ARE REAL LEOs. I would like to see local councils and STL County Council start to restrict this with legislation.

An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

Donold’s 79th birthday parade was a pitiful failure. The No Kings protests were a massive success.

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

They’re arresting 80 year old veterans and their walkers now. You can’t make this shit up. 😡🤬

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings

Clearview AI's new CEO has said he wants to "take down lefties" and its previous CEO was cozy was Holocaust deniers and obsessed with race science. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

REVEALED: Flock, the one of the largest license plate reader networks in the US, is sharing data with ICE. Flock is increasingly deployed by malls, HOAs, and local police departments. Nice scoop by @404media.co www.404media.co/ice-taps-int...

Judge Jane Barwick ruled in favor of the media and transparency organizations that sued the police foundation today! The Atlanta Police Foundation now has 30 days to turn over the records they illegally refused to produce.

Atlanta Police Foundation ordered to release ‘Cop City’ records to journalists Judge says public records can’t be withheld because of who’s asking for them

HUGE WIN: LPL and ‪@atlpresscollective.com‬ WINS our challenge against the Atlanta Police Foundation. The APF held numerous records about its behind the scenes efforts to build #CopCity and those records must now be turned over to us.

New from 404 Media: Delta, United, American etc don't want you to know they sold your flight data to DHS. The country's airlines sell bulk names and flight itineraries to DHS to be searched without a warrant. Contract tells DHS to not reveal where this data came from www.404media.co/airlines-don...

Atlanta is the most surveilled city in the United States. But because the Atlanta Police Department claims that releasing the locations of these 60,000+ cameras will lead to terrorism, we’ve not been able to map their locations... Until now. Read more 👇👇

NEWS: Documents obtained by LPL and corroborated by other docs obtained by @404media.co reveal the first known instance of cops using car data to search for women seeking an abortion www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

This about sums it up. #energsky #greensky #utilities #bills

Holy smokes! It took over one month to get a letter from south central Missouri to me in STL, Missouri. 🧐🧐🧐🧐 cc @stateofstlouis.bsky.social

In March, our documents formed the basis of a @404media.co story about how Clearview AI was attempting to buy Social Security Numbers and other sensitive data. www.404media.co/facial-recog... bsky.app/profile/hype...

5 years. Since Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd, US cops have killed 6,000 - 12,000+ people — “setting new records for deadly police violence nationwide” Police violence surged most *in Trump states* and states that refused to enact ‘reforms’ policedata.org www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

These 350,000 will immediately be described as "illegal" by the administration — among other inevitable false descriptors.

The basic American political reality is that blue states subsidize red states. The Trump variation is to keep collecting ever more taxes from blue states while taking away ever more services from red states. This is a gamble that voters like to suffer, or no longer matter. time.com/7286199/trum...

Fact-check: True

When you are outsmarted by your robot, that insists on telling the truth.

Do someone who knifes you and someone who blames you for being attacked have the right to go to a bar afterwards and write out your future on a napkin? No? That’s the scenario when Putin and Trump talk about a "deal" for Ukraine.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

New from 404 Media: we've obtained a leak from inside Palantir describing Palantir's plan to help ICE find people to deport. Includes peoples' location. Palantir is expecting a backlash, preparing comments for employees to tell their family. Says ICE "mature partner" www.404media.co/leaked-palan...

My statement on the events that occurred at Delaney Hall today:

What I saw today in Newark is a scene I never imagined experiencing in my lifetime. But I refuse to believe today reflects who we are as a country. We must all commit to correcting the course our country is on. Standing side by side, I know we can achieve those better tomorrows - together.

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

In the face of the fear and anxiety that exists in our communities, let’s make sure each of us and each one of our neighbors is prepared and has the information they need. Please read and share 👇

Good morning, St. Louis. Make sure you're children are vaccinated. (I think I saw a graphic that only 75% of children in the city are... yikes!) www.firstalert4.com/2025/05/05/p...
