The Trump White House official app is fraught with trackers. The White House app covertly collects excessive user data and shares it with third-party trackers while sidestepping federal security rules. For example, the app includes scripts to monitor a user's location several times per minute.

White House Drove Users to Official App Fraught With Trackers
The White House app became the App Store’s most downloaded news app after the president barred three news outlets.

“If you’re evil you’re actually kind of good. Because you’re at least getting something done.”🤔 Y’all aren’t alarmed enough about what MAGA tech billionaire (Trump donor, J.D. Vance’s pimp, Epstein’s buddy) Peter Thiel is doing to our country.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.

Elon Musk is flying under the radar in the Texas Senate race. Republicans want to keep it that way.

Not sure if people know Wakefield was trying to sell a competing measles vaccine when he made up his fraudulent study about the MMR. It was only after that failed (because he is a complete fraud) that he started grifting off opposing all vaccines. It’s all just a grift. Antivaxxers are their marks.

In Mississippi and Louisiana, judges usually take three months or more to decide if someone should be released from detention. Meanwhile, in Minnesota, which experienced a surge in appeals early this year, courts often decide in less than two weeks. Full story: propub.li/4csLJaa
A cropped map showing how long habeas cases take to close, by district. Gray dots throughout represent immigration detention facilities. Regions are shaded lighter purple if they have fewer cases, or darker purple if they have more cases. An arrow points to Minnesota with this text: In Minnesota, where more than 1,500 habeas petitions have been filed since January 2025, cases have closed in a median of just 12 days. Another arrow points to Oklahoma with this text: In Oklahoma's Western District, habeas cases take a median of 63 days. An arrow points to Louisiana with the text: Over 2,600 petitions have been filed in Louisiana, which has many ICE detention centers. Cases have taken a median of 89 days to close. Finally, an arrow points to Mississippi with this text: Cases have taken a median of 92 days to close in Mississippi's Southern District, where the Adams County Correctional Center is located.
