ICE now admits that hundreds of children were held past the legal 20-day custody limit set to protect their safety.
Five were kept for 168 days.
Some faced unsafe conditions and went days without medical care.
This crosses a moral line.

I did not get video of about the first 30 seconds of this interaction, during which the resident asked if he was being detained (he was not) and if there was a warrant for him. The Black Rifle Coffee Shirt Guy only told him he "fit exactly the description of the problem we're here to address".

A totalitarian movement must never achieve its goals, as that would eliminate the need for the movement itself. Even in victory, new enemies must be created in order to justify further cruelty and domination.
A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

It’s so surreal seeing prominent right-wing figures—an influential presidential advisor, the last campaign’s biggest donor, etc.—call for violence, the GOP president lie and stoke violence, every Dem officeholder condemn it, and mainstream media treat those as the same, or the Dem reaction as worse.
These are calls for mass political violence, against all Democrats. They openly call for the bombing of "Democrat" cities and for the jailing or killing of Democratic politicians. They are from some of the most influential voices in right-wing politics. Will anyone say anything?

Moron ICE prosecutor, Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, doxed himself as the guy running a white-supremacist, openly racist, & anti-immigrant Xitter account, in which he identified himself as a fascist

![Excerpt from Texas Observer article stating that, on the day after Trump's inauguration, "Posts on social media and Reddit claimed that ICE had already been spotted in the Dallas neighborhood of Oak Cliff, where Latino immigrants began to settle in large numbers in the 1970s and have profoundly. shaped the culture of the vibrant community.
That same Tuesday morning, an X account with over 17,000 followers named GlomarResponder made an ominous post. "Yeah, I'm in a courthouse wating [sic] on warrants," GlomarResponder wrote. "Turns out there's a lot of bitch work to be done to make mass deportations happen." One day prior, GlomarResponder had posted that he "Can confirm all of those," regarding a list of cities where ICE was expected to begin deportation operations the next day. "May have a betting pool to see who can guess which one I'm at on any particular day, based on the news," GlomarResponder wrote.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6ooqzlqn2xvyyoupuhmbfxwe/bafkreiailomg7y6vq2lprbpvtjrjdovr2evraz5hnesirww72pr7sozzje@jpeg)

we can confirm that hillsborough, chapel hill, pittsboro, greensboro, asheville, and durham NC (and the outer banks) all had #nokings protests - none of them are on the NYTimes map.
You can always count on The New York Times to minimize the scale and impact of protest.
Yesterday's 2000+ No Kings actions smashed records for the most demonstrations in a single day.
So the Times decided to publish a horseshit map of just a handful of "confirmed locations."
We're not fooled.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

This blog is SO good at pointing out what should have been obvious about AI for coding (Copilot and others)
These tools are good for re-creating whatever they’ve been trained on.
They are not what will create the next, better generation of frameworks, libraries, technologies.

This is an accurate synopsis of my experience with llms: It’s giving us first drafts of things (research, writing, etc)
Which is useful! Except companies clearly want those first drafts to be final products, which means the proliferation of work that’s anywhere from slightly wrong to extremely bad.

AI isn't going to provide accuracy. If you ask ChatGPT (or whatever) to write you 1000 words on the impact that a player has had in the league, then maybe you're saving some time because you're getting a first draft delivered to you. But you definitely have to know the facts yourself.
