DHS Is Hiring Bounty Hunters to Find and Photograph Deported People’s Homes Abroad

Homeland Security told immigrants that leaving the US would wipe out fines it claims they owe. Now it wants private investigators to find them in their home countries and collect.

I understand that people like computer and want computer to be real, but you cannot convince me that anything computer provides is worth submitting to fascism and a free flow of CSAM.

NEW: Over the last few months, Meta has run dozens of paid ads that included AI-generated CSAM. The ads, some of which were linking out to “nudify” apps, targeted men in the US, UK, and a dozen European countries. Some were running in the last few days

In the past two years, nearly 3 in 10 investors said they slashed what they contribute to their 401(k) - 7 in 10 investors said their biggest stumbling block when it comes to savings is the cost of essential expenses including healthcare, utility bills, insurance, and housing.

One-third of investors have more credit card debt than retirement savings: Survey

Americans who currently contribute to a workplace retirement plan such as a 401(k), believe they will need $1.2 million in savings to retire comfortably, yet many won't make that target, according to ...

It says a lot about how whiny and incoherent centrist Democrats have been in recent years that Ro Khanna of all people can just 360 windmill slam dunk on Dan Goldman like this

Dan, losing is hard. I lost twice. I lost to Tom Lantos when I ran the first anti-Iraq war primary in the nation in 2003. I was disappointed I got 19% to Lantos's 71% even though the district was overwhelmingly opposed to the war. Lantos said "young man unless you're a movie star you can't just get up and run. You need to do far more work in the community." It's a lesson I internalized. Then I lost to Mike Honda in 2014. I had glowing NYT profiles & tech leaders endorsing me. Honda had the PTA moms. He said to me after the race, Ro there are far more PTA moms in the district than tech leaders. A lesson I have never forgotten, especially as I took heat supporting a California billionaire tax. My point is why not reflect on the lesson voters were sending upset about AIPAC, about money going to foreign wars, about food and gas prices up because of Middle East conflicts. You have a long career ahead of you. We need everyone on the playing field. Maybe the loss will make you a voice calling for an end to the occupation or a Palestinian state. You could help make a difference. And what happened to you in not being served coffee was disgusting and wrong and I had called it out on CNN when it happened. I hope you'll think about what voters were saying and help be part of a new generation that helps bring about a just peace.

For CIO I took a look at recent growth in the family office space - there are more of them & they are professionalizing, bringing on independent boards, investment committees, setting up target allocations - they're also growing more concerned about precarity - 1/

Expansion can warrant professionalization and put offices in competition for personnel with asset managers and institutions.

want to be clear there are absolutely big differences b/t Dems & GOP, don’t ascribe to all-the-same, and that said, it’s awfully telling how many high profile Dems now profess to prefer a Republican in office than a progressive and how that appears to be driven by who is closer to their values
