After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

Washington state’s Department of Licensing continues to share vehicle data with federal immigration authorities, despite state laws prohibiting it, thru a national law enforcement platform called Nlets. I explain this practice here, how it fuels racial profiling, & why it can & should be stopped.

"It is never safe, it is never democratic, to empower any law enforcement agency to effectively become a secret police—and ICE has been doing that for a very long time." UWCHR's Angelina Godoy joins @inthemeanwhile.bsky.social podcast, listen here:

Worth remembering, as Trump tries to brutalize blue states over alleged TANF fraud: Mississippi's former welfare director ran TANF as a private slush fund, routing tens of millions to churches, wrestlers, and celebrity pet projects (including Brett Favre's)—while rejecting over 90% of poor families.

NEW: Text messages reveal the strange relationship that John Davis, the former Mississippi official who directed millions in welfare dollars to sports celebrities, shared with WWE wrestlers Ted DiBiase Jr. and Brett DiBiase. "It is me who tried to buy your love," he wrote in one text read in court.

Regarding WA state continuing to give drivers license data to ICE, despite saying they stopped: "If we can't keep data secure that we're collecting, do we have any business collecting it in the first place?"

“We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness,” said her widow, Becca Good. "On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns.”

Ruth Delgado@heylookitsruth.bsky.social · 7mo ago

"Had the admin. not deployed taxpayer-funded officers into the state for political reasons, there’s plenty of reason to believe that Renee Nicole Good – poet, mother, and treasured neighbor in her Minneapolis community – might still be alive today." ✍️ @tusk81.bsky.social + @yunao08.bsky.social

at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

I just discovered this podcast by Nora Kenworthy and Marcus Harrison Green. If you've been interested in my AI reporting or AI in general, I really recommend giving this episode (from August) a listen.

In The Meanwhile@inthemeanwhile.bsky.social · 12mo ago

This week, a particularly timely conversation with the brilliant @danmcquillan.bsky.social: on the rise of technofascism, and what all of us can do to resist AI’s overreach. A necessary road map for rejecting the broligarchy and decomputing our way to liberation.🔥 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...
