1. After months of denials, the Trump administration has admitted that DOGE staff misused Social Security data.

A DOGE staffer signed a deal to share the data with a “political advocacy group” seeking to “overturn election results"

The identity of the staffer is not disclosed but there are clues

Before I became mayor, I had the privilege of serving in the New York State Assembly. And on Tuesday, Feb. 3, Astoria & Long Island City can elect @DianaforQueens to continue our work.

I'm so proud to endorse Diana, a Queens mom, an immigrant organizer & a democratic socialist.
I heard there’s a job opening in Astoria. I asked the Mayor if I have a shot.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

I can't even keep up with the lies in Jim Jordan's opening statement, but I find it interesting that he's complaining about toll record warrants obtained by a judge, while this administration has determined judicial warrants aren't needed to enter our homes.

This right here is on the money!
Gestapo goons (=ICE Border Patrol) are a bunch of cosplaying cowardly thugs who like to beat up, shoot, & kill innocent people who are unarmed & don’t fight back - the “worst of the worst”

But they love prancing around with their expensive kit & fancy weapons

TRUMP V COOK 🧵
1/ The question is whether Trump can fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve on patently ridiculous allegations of mortgage fraud.

Not yet clear where the court will land, but nobody works harder to protect the rule of law than Justice Sotomayor.

I am introducing the Melt ICE Act to end funding for immigrant detention and monitoring.

We have seen the danger in infusing resources into DHS’s abuses of power. Funding for ICE is fuel for human suffering.

It’s time to start melting ICE.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

Come on guys, we can do it! Truly possible to just NOT use AI willingly and to opt out of it whenever possible. It’s worth it!
If people don't actually use the shitty AI we keep violently thrusting at them, the bubble will pop, and our wasteful investments into water guzzling, anti-human infrastructure will bankrupt us. Despite spouting shit about free markets/consumer first, we have decided you WILL use our slopgorithms.

Yeah, that is NOT what the law says.
Homan: "Let's make it clear: ICE can detain a US citizen if they have probable cause that this person may have committed a crime. A short detainment and questioning, all you need is reasonable suspicion."

Who could’ve foreseen all this economic anxiety, to borrow a rightfully dead euphemism, among an unaccountable purported “law enforcement” agency re-engineered over the last year to be Mandarin Mussolini’s OVRA? Surely not (checks notes) the 75 million Americans who voted against this.
Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
