I spent most of yesterday offline and so much was reported and then retracted that by the time I got back online everything had canceled itself out and there was no news

Thank you @raskin.house.gov for the endorsement — and your courageous fight in Congress against Trump's authoritarianism.

“Taylor Swift has multiple Grammys. Her Eras Tour added nearly $5B to the U.S. economy. She quietly donates to food banks in every city she visits. Her lyrics are studied at the world’s top universities, not because she’s famous, but because she’s brilliant”
Raise your kids to be like TaylorSwift.

“Jimenez Rosa, a legal permanent resident and mother of four U.S. citizens, was detained over what her lawyer believes was a decades-old, personal-use marijuana charge, which is no longer a crime in Massachusetts today… “I was just like, ‘Girls, we might never see your mother again in this country’”
ICE released this Mass. mom with no phone, 30 miles from home in the rain after detainment for a sealed marijuana conviction
Federal authorities refused to tell the Canton woman's husband or lawyer on what grounds she was being detained until shortly before her release.

#genealogy #familysearch. Using full text search for a “Thomas ward” in Lincoln county NC. He’s the sheriff so I am getting too many results. Tried -sheriff (does not work with name in quotes). Any tips?

Stephen Miller just made a fortune off a secretive surveillance deal—with your data at the center.
He bought Palantir stock. Trump signed the contract. Now he’s richer, and your privacy is gone.

This is what I’m so worried about
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I cannot stand AI graphics. Now I am seeing them on commercials, yuck! I won’t post one as an example because AI is a terrible artist.
