If you’d asked me to parody how silly and broken legal journalism is, I genuinely don’t think I could have come up with “so the best-known ‘nonpartisan’ Supreme Court outlet is now run by an ex-Trump DOJ flack who had her longtime personal friend Brett Kavanaugh officiate her wedding”

In most cities, even before Trump turned them into immigration agents, police might as well be occupying forces. They clearly don't care about the cities they police nor the residents they're supposed to serve.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but a country with a masked national police force which partners with countless local police forces to yank people off the street, disappear them into a detention gulag, and render them to overseas prisons without due process is not actually a safe country.

ICE brutally detain woman's gardener-right in front of her house. 4 goons drag and violently pull man out of truck head-first. Kneel on his back after pinned down to pavement. "I can't breathe! I can't breathe!" he cries out. Incident occurred in Everett, Washington.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, this argument should be chilling. Trying to limit freedom of the press under the guise of national security is what tinpot dictators do. That’s not how a functioning democracy works.

I’m giving you a warning that is not up for debate. There is a new digital threat on the horizon, and it's dressed up in the false clothing of a "streaming contract" and "administration news." Let’s get one thing incredibly clear: Under NO circumstances should anyone download this app.

Painted bicycle lanes are not 'protection' they leverage up on motorist conditioning to stay within the painted lines. Drivers don't give cyclist space when they share a lane but will give them space if there is a painted line involve. Years of riding on shoulders speaks the this phenomenon.

You don't need a private company to pay a parking ticket. You don't need one to get Social Security or Medicare. But somehow you NEED a private company to file your taxes. And that company pays $0 in taxes on $6 billion in profits. And gets $1 billion in tax breaks. RIGGED.

Natalie Harp is not some innocent White House aide who deserves no scrutiny. She literally got trump to just suspend the First Amendment by showing him clips of media coverage. Somebody with that much influence over trump deserves a closer look.

ICE agent shot a man in the torso during a traffic stop in North Austin today. He's in serious but stable condition. Austin PD wasn't involved; the mayor wants local police on the investigation for third-party eyes. ICE has been out of control since they started this B.S.

Trump is threatening. The shear size of the USA makes this an idle threat. Trump operates by threats but rarely follows through. He relies on the adversary to generate fear to achieve his ends. People who take this to the extreme serve Trump not democracy.

AI is not new it has been around in some form for 50 years or so. If IA companies were interested in self-regulation they would have taken step to this point. It has been 5 years or so since academia has started taking a close look at AI and ethics. The expertise exists, but no real self-regulations

This is what happens when a group of people have no accountability. As public servants, they should be held to a higher standard, not a lower one. If anyone in the private sector did this, they would likely be fired. And none of us have the generous health care and pensions they have. Fuck the PIGS!
