“A 79-year-old CO pastor who lost 35 pounds and the strength to walk after 13 months in immigration detention has been released by order of a federal magistrate judge. The government ignored requests for a wheelchair. Instead, 3 other detainees carried Rev. Edward Nalwamba to a waiting vehicle.”

Rattling for nationalization when well positioned, successful guys overstep. Seeking a novel word for hubris but here we are staring at the same shit from the same guys generation after generation. Time to either trust bust or take away the tools they're wielding against the people.

🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.

A surprisingly informative thread

Someone on here told me since, after nearly 43 years, I'm a beans guy, I should be a Rancho Gordo bean guy. I like what I hear but everything I hear seems to be pro small business propaganda, where's the bad news? This is California agriculture we're talking about, there are maybe 7 good actors!

Minor potentate so charmed by a mechanical bird whose movement and song is so lifelike that they demand the bird or else have a tradesperson executed is a beautiful story thst echoes through time.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Scott Bessent started the “Blame Ukraine, not Trump’s War” Big Lie on Sept 5th, it looks like—Trump and other cabinet members doubling down three days later is when & why I started my Refinery Wars spreadsheet and graphing to debunking it

this is a radical and apocalyptic transformation of american streets.

i'm trying to relate. i was a nin superfan. i bought every ep, single, and import i could afford. i memorized every breath of every song. i was a navel gazing obsessive. my outward expression of that obsession was singing in the hallways at school. the 4chan feedback loop enabled these boys' id.

The crowd at Trump's rally screams "we love you daddy Trump"

i'm reluctantly admitting that i don't ride my mountain bikes any more and i just put up my big bike on pinkbike and marketplace. it's a sad new age. i am having a blast looking at steel city bikes though. look at how old i am.

the IRS is so badly funded that the most recent time we actually measured tax evasion was 2016 btw this should be a yearly report! but instead the sum of all federal knowledge regarding the tax gap is like five spreadsheets where half the numbers are derived from decades-old figures

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

Just watched Star Trek the motion picture from 1979 about a machine that roams the universe consuming everything in its path in its quest for knowledge while it seeks its creator until it merges with a human at the end. I watched the movie multiple times growing up but it never felt more relevant.

I'm going to collapse realities here; merge the classic with the anonymous simulacrum. I was directly involved in projects to spend $2B in Alaska, much of it BEAD money. When Elon the sieg heil guy took control of the government and killed everyone the whole project collapsed.

We were going to deliver communications infrastructure to people that fly before they drive because the roads are such shit. We were going to deliver affordable internet to people that sit OUTSIDE of their libraries to do homework because that's the only reliable wifi. And it costs $25k/mo for 100m.

The coalition we formed was amazing. USDA gives a zillion grants to AK communications efforts, so we conferred with USDA. The Alaskan tribes are extremely powerful and so we worked with them. The small telcos and ILECs were involved. It was so fucking cool.

We were going to transform the communications landscape for Alaskans, where towns consisting of hundreds of people are hundreds of miles apart and using honeypots and cesspools.

A factor, is that racists like Carlson are convinced a non white majority will treat whites with the same brutality whites treated non whites.

Not an ad watcher and don't know talking points but R gave the feds 70b to shoot people in their cars and have blocked at least 3 bipartisan attempts to lower gas and grocery prices by ending the war and tariffs. R kills people in their cars. What the fuck
