Guessing that was a Jan.6-ICE employee in Minneapolis earlier today?

Can't wait to see what Mamdani does with fascists like Pinnacle bankrupting on thousands of NYC apartments as Emerald Equity and DBRS raked in cash

Actually, Ian, if you're not aware of what is going on in the country with ICE-Gestapo, take a look at the footage as the ICE punk walks in front of her car, then murders her, and then drives away a bit later from the scene. Yea, this is timely and relevant and you can bet Adam is pissed
too.

I've only seen one media-cited instance of a ICE wearing the glasses, so likely a nerdle-ICEr living over the top. I do believe if they are linked with the right apps they can provide facial recognition, which in public, I don't believe, would still not be against the law.

Personally, I think the Penske truck to transport federal employees is a far bigger deal. Contracts specifically forbid that yet the company is a big time MAGA supporter, even if this latest news, and the "Penske Slammer" out of Indiana, forced the company into a poseur rebuttal posture.

Thanks for taking time to respond; it means a lot. I regularly read you offer and, honestly, am overwhelmed by the number of by-the-piece and aggregated columns out there. I'm looking for writing that is forward thinking, that uses data to address possible consequences, is predictive. Thanks again.

Was interested in 30-Day Free Trial but not: Cassidy-Kennedy relationship (settled w/Cassidy's bent knee), what isn't happening to Mike Flood since his earful (as MAGA base sits it out), or why I care about a $10K watch costing more when a shrinking 30% in the U.S. wear one of any price daily.

Somebody help me with this. There no expectation of privacy here, no Fourth Amendment issue, even, it could be argued, if facial recognition is being used in the space. Just sayin' ... if you are in public, the expectation should be you are being surveilled. What about use of Flock plate readers?
