ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. Sheโs married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
Theyโve already sent her to Louisiana.
The fuck kind of answer is this
I remember when โBrexit Means Brexitโ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the โwarโ in Iran. And itโs mostly the same people doing it.

Do you demand Justice? Here you go! Have a kitty. This fluffy girl is Justice. When you feed her, you can say Justice has been served. Sheโs available for adoption in Minnesota through Feline Rescue. You can learn more about her here: us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?acco...
MASSIE: โIran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leaderโฆ ๐บ๐ธ & ๐ฎ๐ฑ turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 ๐บ๐ธ families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.โ
I just signed @stwuk petition to demand the UK government ends its complicity in the US-Israeli illegal war on Iran.

"Trying to compete with Reform not only feels inauthentic... but a betrayal of what Labour is supposed to represent. We must address the concerns and fears of voters, not play on them."

Really concerned to hear the Defence Secretary refuse to rule out UK's involvement in future strikes on Iran.
Iraq lessons must be learned.
Further escalation in the Middle East makes us all less safe.
Starmer must rule out UK involvement immediately.

This is Kevin. He's a reactive dog getting some training to be more comfortable. His trainer brought him to a pet store for some socialization where they learned he is no longer reactive when given a giant stuffed dinosaur. 14/10 (TT: katieandtatesfostermates)
Deeply unsatisfactory response talking ONLY about Financial Interference. Of course that matters, but the UK govt needs to look much wider & frankly needs to stop prevaricating & start looking at ALL aspects of interference. It is dereliction otherwise. Tories avoided it, Starmer must not.
In the same way the invasion of Ukraine motivated Finland & Sweden to immediately request full membership of NATO, both for their safety & as statement, Starmer should consider making an emergency request for the UK to rejoin the EU.
The post WW2 peace is over.
We live in a time of sharks & food.
@joepompliano on Threads posted a pic of a map dotted with dozens of yacht names and said: โPretty much every billionaire that owns a superyacht is in St. Barth right now for New Year's Eve - Jeff Bezos, Miriam Adelson, Shahid Khan, Sergey Brin, Jerry Jones, and 100+ othersโ

Also get a cat recovery surgical suit. Don't believe them when they say they don't need anything.

The NHS is on its knees because of successive Tory & Labour Lies
They can't hold people to ransom
Noone ever WANTS to go strike
Remember all the tax breaks Starmer was giving to the US tech industry..worth millions

Too subtle for the Yanks, I suspect
I need everyone, esp anyone working in education or tech (but really everyone) to WATCH THIS CLIP of @drtanksley.bsky.social discussing the technologies infiltrating our schools & psyches and how she is addressing it with our young people. youtu.be/5mtcSL4S3HQ
No where near 50%
I wondered why his article was so annoying....no evidence to support his assertions. And writing with the help of AI.
Question: would police officers typically point guns at family members like this?
Would they typically bruise up children? Would they say they're gonna blow your head off to an unarmed mom in front of her kids?
ICE did that to this family.
If it can happen to them, it can happen to yours!

Trumpโs construction of the Epstein Ballroom continues today. Can only imagine heโll be renting it out for many junior proms.
The AWS fiasco should be sufficient warning of how utterly stupid Starmerโs digital ID system is.
If they wanted everyone to have proof of ID and residency they should simply make passports free for everyone.
These can be produced when needed for travel and work applications (already in use).
Decorative only?
Generative AI is literally destroying knowledge
wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...
