NEW — I wrote about my visit to Delaney Hall, the ICE facility in Newark, NJ where detainees are on a hunger and labor strike in protest of rotten food, unpaid work, and unjust detainment, and where protesters outside have spent the last week drawing ICE's ire while keeping strikers' demands alive.

It's all climate controlled, sunny, and rainbows and then the "PAYMENT DENIED" screen pops up and the pod explodes (the dog). How? With explosives, silly.
GERMANY JUST INTRODUCED “DOG PARKING” OUTSIDE STORES Supermarkets are now installing climate-controlled, ventilated pods where you can leave your dog safely while you shop. Locked by app. Temperature regulated. Stress-free design.
Ten thousand mocha paprika drizzle drips, no ice, double half-ice. Cream, ventilation.
Starbucks is partnering with ChatGPT. The coffee giant has launched an app within the OpenAI chatbot that is supposed to "provide inspiration for customers’ drink orders." Consumers will still need to complete their orders on the Starbucks app or website.

UPDATE: The U.S. Senate just voted NO on a bill that would've given ICE and DHS $370 million in new funding — a clear response to the public outcry against ICE's terror campaign in Minnesota. This is a step in the right direction, but the fight is not over yet.
The Senate will soon vote on a bill that would give ICE and DHS millions in extra funding, on top of the billions they got last year. As Trump ramps up attacks on immigrants and allies in Minnesota and beyond, we can't let ICE get more of our taxpayer dollars. 🚨 Tell your senator to vote NO now! ⬇️

Hey @repscottpeters.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov! Abolish ICE!
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Cutting off funding to almost all opposition-controlled states is an act of dictatorship. It is outrageous and illegal. That is our money, allocated to the states by our Congress, under our laws. Lawless, dictatorial rampage will come to harm all Conservative and Liberal Americans.
Here's the full list, according to a DOJ press release dated August. In effect, every blue state except for Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, and Massachusetts (all except HI had Republican statewide electeds at some point since 2018) will have their funding withheld: www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justi...

Is your government a bully? Do we need to use parenting tactics on the adults of the three branches of the US government to get them to be better people? www.scientificamerican.com/article/what...
What a read. It's basically evidence of all the stuff any regular person could imagine Elmo is doing. None of it is okay.
EXCLUSIVE: A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.
