ICYMI last night, DHS is currently being fined every day for contempt of court until it coughs up the cell phone records of officers involved in immigration stops in L.A. last year that looked like racial profiling rather than reasonable cause. short thread -->

Fed. judge holds DHS in civil contempt of court for refusing "intentionally and not in good faith" to provide plaintiffs with phone images they intend to use to prove DHS was racially profiling people arrested in Los Angeles without reasonable suspicion. Order from July 28, unsealed today.

B. Defendants’ Noncompliance Is Intentional And Not In Good Faith. Having found that Defendants are in violation of the January 16 Forensic Imaging Order, the burden now shifts to Defendants to show that they were unable to comply. Affordable Media, 179 F.3d at 1239 (9th Cir. 1999). They fail to make that showing. Upon review of the parties’ submissions and counsel’s representations at the hearing, it does not appear that Defendants’ noncompliance is due to an inability to comply. Instead, the clear and convincing evidence shows that Defendants have acted intentionally and not in good faith.

El-Sayed, Lawrence and McKinney all won progressive campaigns in Michigan last night by talking about climate and clean energy like it was a kitchen-table issue — because skyrocketing energy bills and endless wildfire smoke matter to people.

Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.

💢 POSTED BY CALL TO ACTIVISM Cory Booker’s patience for the excuses on Todd Blanche is at absolute zero. ​As the Judiciary Committee votes to advance Blanche’s nomination to the Senate floor, Booker is unleashing a verbal sledgehammer on everyone caving like lawn chairs. Zero filter, pure fire. 🔥👏

Do you have opinion about Bluesky CEO's comments that Bluesky is liberal bubble and his decision to attract- who? The only political audience actually missing : white supremacists, far right-wing, fascists? Who does he believe is missing? He should tell us so we have time to migrate elsewhere.

There has been a vibe change here on Bluesky after my last contact with moderation services. They want to move away from the liberal community that has well established itself here. Its the only reason i am here. I fear a downward spiral into a toxic environment like Twitter might be the outcome.

I'll never look at anything the same again now that the Trumps and Republicans have taken a colossal dump on everything. I stream differently, shop differently, eat differently and engage differently. Every choice is calculated as to who I'm helping or hurting. Essentially, are you a benefit?

I've transplanted coneflowers to the back garden. I've given coneflowers away. I cannot keep up with the speed of their self-seeding but the bees and butterflies are in their glory. #BloomScrolling

Peony and iris foliage frame a large swath of pink coneflowers as the sun starts to set. Two hostas float among the flowers. White hydrangea, pink mandevilla and summer alliums, and blue agapanthus are visible in the distance against a wall of green yews.
