To anyone who does not live in Paris but visits the city at regular intervals (as I do), the transformation has been staggering: Paris has been reclaimed from cars. It can be done, and could be done in London too. It is all about political will and taking the risk of being unpopular - for a while.

Flock’s CEO is now calling for a “compromise” between privacy and safety as backlash against the surveillance company grows. That backlash isn’t hypothetical: The Washington Post identified 46 cases where officers were accused of using Flock technology for unauthorized purposes.

Americans have declared war on Flock cameras. They’ve protested them, damaged them, and destroyed them. Flock camera destruction isn’t just popular — in some cases, it has also proven highly effective at getting rid of them. Read more from @janus.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/tech/985155/...

The ONLY reason why he did it is because someone told him he would lose the support of Tennessee and other red states if he didn’t lower the flags. He did it out of self preservation. He didn’t do it after Rep. Melissa Hortman was murdered, he wanted to piss off Minnesota.

The ICE raids and cruelty we are seeing inflicted on children are unacceptable.

The federal government has stripped legal representation from hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children. Many will soon face an impossible choice: navigate our immigration system alone or risk detention and deportation.

Our city is stepping up. We've invested $16.9 million in immigration legal services for unaccompanied children, with another $32 million in this year's immigration legal services budget, including rapid-response legal advice and representation for people in detention.

If you need immigration legal support, we're here to help. Our free, confidential Immigration Legal Support Hotline is available in your preferred language, regardless of immigration status.

There’s this really weird thing happening on the right where they’re pretending like Karoline Leavitt was actually a good Press Secretary. They’re all saying the same thing, so I’m assuming they don’t know what a Press Secretary is supposed to do… or they were given a script.
