Seriously. What is stopping any democrat from announcing a slew of new anti-corruption proposals, including harsh punishments.
The only reason I can think of is they can’t wait to benefit from the new norms Trump has set.

The good news is all the brazen, cartoonish corruption makes it easier to run on an anti-oligarchy, good government platform. The bad news is you still need candidates who want to do that

Blows my mind that any professional journalist, photographer, or editor wouldn’t know this already, but f yes.
If you work in journalism: you cannot use machine learning to upscale a photo and still be telling the truth. It WILL lie, even if you don't intend to tell one.
It can only do what it does by inventing details where none exist, which means it will inherently be misrepresenting reality.

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.
This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

It’s really difficult & disorienting but the feds hit LA extremely hard today. There were kidnappings all over & reported cluster raids in Chinatown, East LA, Ktown. This list shows to 1130 AM but they haven’t stopped all day
Just because the media attention stopped doesn’t mean the abductions have

If you don’t want to be identified while enforcing the law pick another fucking job
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

I feel like each city contributed to the model and took learnings from previous invasions. Portland created social awareness & set a peaceful tone with the inflatable costumes. Chicago added the whistles, observers, and tailing cars. The Twin Cities added mass organizing & resilience.

Fundamentally, voters are inconsistent. Yes, they can be very racist. They can also be moved to fight racism.
The job of leaders is to lead, not just check the weathervane.
The Right has understood this for two generations.

The basic fallacy in chasing votes by being "tough on immigration" is that the modal American's position on the issue is "Deport the Bad ones and keep the Good ones," and they alone know who is which, and that simply does not translate into workable policy. So this kind of gestapo stuff (1/2)

This is always a tell. Left-wing media consumers always know *much more* about right wing media, rw talking points, than anyone closer to the center.

I love when people (who claim to be) on the left are like, "I get out of my bubble and listen to right-wing podcasts; that makes me better than the rest of you who are brainwashed by your echo chamber!" as though my job for years wasn't consuming almost exclusively right-wing content.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.
