A town in Western NY claims its police bodycam footage is copyrighted despite being a public record.
It's apparently telling people who request footage under NY's FOIL law that they can't share the footage with others.
Here's our letter telling them how ridiculous that is.

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?
TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Two Swiss lawmakers are calling for a bribery investigation into gifts Trump got from a delegation seeking lower tariffs. The group gave Trump an engraved gold bar and a Rolex table clock. Around a week and a half later, Trump lowered the tariffs.

WOW. So this is obviously a huge violation of this man's rights, and it illustrates a few things we're seeing broadly:

My grandfather didn't have $1 million for a Trump Gold Card. He was 10, poor, and didn't speak any English. He ended up making good, and a lot of money. I wrote about him in 2018. I liked us better when we understood what the American Dream meant to the world. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
My grandfather wouldn't be allowed into America under Donald Trump's policies
Trump's campaign-trail immigration slurs are now policies and tragedies. Latest example: Hundreds of families still separated despite a judge's order.

According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵
