86 Democrats & all Republicans in the House of Representatives voted today to condemn socialism. They want Americans to feel guilty about expecting a better return on the taxes we pay while they help their wealthy & corporate donors hoard more wealth. Primary and/or replace them all. #Socialism

Tim Cook, the head of Apple, is having a nice dinner with MBS, who regularly orders executions, including for tweets.

Apple hosts "a Saudi app that allows men to track the movement of their wives and daughters. In 2019, Mr. Cook said he would investigate the app, but it is still available today."

1/2 Before anyone gets their hope up too high, I don't think the Epstein files will be released anytime soon.

Even if the House gets enough votes to pass the bill in the next few weeks, it still needs to be passed in the Senate. It would then head to Trump to approve or veto. #EpsteinFiles

Note the timing of this Dem capitulation: Not when Americans are in food pantry lines, only when they're in TSA lines.

And there it is, folks. The AA CEO made the call.

Democrats & Left-wing 3rd Party candidates won almost every major election last night, flipping many GOP held seats - some held by the GOP for the last 25 years. This gives me hope that many people realized the mistake they made last November and are correcting course. #2025Election

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.

In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

By me & @carolinehaskins.bsky.social:

In a bulletin to law enforcement agencies, the FBI said criminal impersonators are exploiting ICE’s image and urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.

Why is it that in just about every major election in the last 10 years, there are bomb threats at polling stations in highly populated areas? It doesn't take Batman to figure this out.

Horrifying. This stuff needs to be shut down.
Again, this precise use case is why these systems exist-to proliferate people’s racist (transphobic, misogynistic…) imaginary at scale. This should not be seen as a “misuse” but rather the product being used exactly as intended.

The Trump admin is rewriting disability eligibility rules.
