OK. We now know that ICE is using "contractors" from Core Civic, a private prison enterprise. The "contractor" in this arrest is a former law enforcement officer, with multiple reprimands and a dismissal.

Jessica Tarlov: “President Bukele is lying when he says he can't get him back. We know he can return people because he returned people from the original shipment. There were women that were sent there and he said, ‘you shouldn't be here.’”

A lot of people seem to think following the U.S. Constitution is optional—like picking which shoes to wear in the morning. It’s not. If you’re within the boundaries of the United States, the Constitution applies to you.

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently.

I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

The United States is no longer a nation under the rule of law.
I urge Canadians to avoid travel. Illegal detentions and kidnapping by ICE have become all too common for travellers and those with working VISAs.
Stay away at this time.

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

The Trump administration has moved to gut workplace protections for transgender and nonbinary Americans, effectively endorsing discrimination under the guise of enforcing “biological truth.”

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

Another shoe drops.

The acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration resigned after DOGE sought access to highly sensitive recipient information.

Trump & Musk’s effort to steal your data and gut your hard-earned benefits continues.
