👀⚖️‼️ I see the J. Edgar Hoover approach is back at the FBI. (I wrote my senior thesis at Harvard about it.)
WHOA. The FBI was/is spying on a Signal chat for a New York immigration court watch group, claiming they were “anarchist violent extremist actors.”

Your reminder that the government is watching and don’t say anything in a big group chat you wouldn’t say on TV.

ICE activity has increased in Sunset Park, Bushwick, and Corona (non-exhaustive list) and it seems to be because people aren’t attending their court dates — either due to not receiving notice or intentionally skipping because they know people are getting disappeared at 26 Federal Plaza.

Solidarity.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

I think these numbers remind us that we need to grapple with whether Twitter gets the amount of attention it does because people use it or because journalists still use it as their assignment editor and as the laziest, most inaccurate “Here’s the word on the street” source on earth.
NEW: YouTube remains king of the social media platforms in @pewresearch.org polling, with 84% of US adults saying they use it. TikTok, Instagram, WhatsApp and Reddit are notable gainers in recent years. Five times more adults use X than Bluesky (21% vs. 4%). www.pewresearch.org/internet/202...

ok I'm thinking more about this bc what gmail did was autosort my email into tabs, which on the surface was great, but turns out was actually worse for the way I, specifically, work. Which is if it was in the promotions tab, or the social tab, I just ignored it. But now--
I turned off all the smart features in my gmail bc i couldn't figure out which ones fed their ai gremlin machine, and now they're like "FINE we won't put your mail into categories" but joke's on them bc now i'm deleting everything aka i will continue to NEVER PAY FOR MORE STORAGE

Every church in the country should be doing this.
NEW: Churches in Charlotte are hosting trainings on how to response to ICE agents — with *hundreds* filling pews.

At one training, a child led those gathered in "This Little Light of Mine" — but changed the words to “All around Border Patrol, I’m gonna let it shine" religionnews.com/2025/11/20/a...
As ICE descends on Charlotte, faith leaders draw on other cities' actions to aid immigrants
(RNS) — As many as 500 people, a mix of clergy and other volunteers, have appeared at the training sessions on how to counter ICE.

Chicago: Did you know that police departments in the Chicago area coordinate on Slack? Now that I know it's accessible to public records requests, request away:

Their server is called CHI-INTEL and requests should be sent to the department that runs it, the Cook County Sheriff.

Send away!
It *is* possible to get cross-jurisdictional and multi-police department Slack chats out of departments via public records requests. Here's a glimpse at the Chicago-area police Slack chat with people responding with the 👀 emoji to the news that there's been an ICE-involved shooting.
