"Videos of U.S. citizens being mistreated by immigration agents have filled social media feeds, but there is little clarity on the overall picture. The government does not track how often immigration agents hold Americans.

So ProPublica created its own count."
More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

The GOP & White house are saying that the Epstein emails were released to distract from the government opening.

What??

🧵How many times do you need to hear that most people who receive snap also work. That has been policy since Clinton. For me, it was once. In fact, you should apply, because IT'S OUR $! Stop buying into their shame campaign & get your money back!

I have never stopped hating the subject section on an email. Now AI summarizes emails. I'm literally about to read the email. I will figure out what it's about while reading it.

Okay, so, weird thing. The people I know who are on food stamps received them. I saw news from New Hampshire stating that Trump has ordered them to undo steps taken to pay snap benefits, but they've already paid them. I guess the news thinks people starving is a better story than Trump losing.

So this is enraging and terrifying! Yet, unsurprising. It gave me a headache.

One thing we have learned is that Critical Race Theory, a once little known college-level course taught only in law school, should absolutely be adapted & taught from as early as preschool. Thanks for the idea, far-right radicals!

Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani
It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

Peter Thiel warning elitists about the antichrist while slowly becoming the antichrist is my new favorite existential horror/scifi series.

I know it's too late for the current group of Nazis, but maybe next time some Nazis are being Nazis and someone says "Hey, those people are Nazis", believe them.

I think Sliwa is forgetting how to Republican.
Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa addressed supporters Tuesday night after conceding the New York City mayoral race. He thanked the more than two million voters who turned out and wished the mayor-ele...

Stephen Miller & Trump really truly believing that endorsing Cuomo was a good idea, that their endorsement would carry any weight in NYC, is endlessly entertaining to me. If Cuomo wins its because they rigged it & democracy is a wash in this country.

I've been doing this crazy thing when I vote. I look up the candidates. ALL OF THEM. I read their policies, look at their voting record, if applicable, & see who their doners are, then I vote for the one that aligns the most with what the people need. We're all on line hours a day, you have time.

"If 1000 men were not to pay their tax-bills this year, that would not be a violent & bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, & enable the State to commit violence & shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible."

So, weird thing I noticed, & I'm sure it's happened but I just haven't seen it but, I have yet to see ICE arrest anyone who is aggressively dressing them down. I've seen them beat and arrest people who were doing nothing, but none that actually got in their face.

If all social media crashed right now, it would hurt the government more that it would hurt us.

The center-left group Welcome relied on polling of hundreds of thousands of voters over six months for its findings, shared first with Semafor.

Hay NJ The Dems put up another AIPAC candidate who takes donations from Israel. Mikie Sherrill has received significant financial contributions from AIPAC and other pro-Israel groups, totaling nearly $1 million over her time in office. THERE'S MORE THAN TWO CANDIDATES!

Somebody told Trump the thing they could use to end the filibuster is called "nuclear" and he was like, I'm so all about nukes! Lets do that! He's gonna be so disappointed.
