Incredibly alarming. The facial recognition crisis is here now.
New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo
“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”
“Alright, we just got to verify that”

Look where money in politics has led us
The US Administration has decided to destroy a top network for clinical trials to test new treatments for children with brain cancer.
This is another atrocity that will harm Conservative and Liberal Americans, long after the politicians responsible are gone.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.
This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵
