I really do think a lot about how big tech systematically destroyed all the reasonably-safe places intended specifically for kids online…. and now powerful interests are turning around and claiming that we have to destroy Internet privacy because being online is obviously dangerous for kids.

This is, in fact, a major reason why teenagers hide bad things that happen to them online now: because they're scared their parents will take away the only third space we have left them!

The conversation I have had with each of my kids: "if you *ever* run into a problem online and you think you're in trouble, you can *always* come talk to me about it, and if you think I will be upset about a choice you made just start out by saying 'I may need some help.'" And I will take that...

And it's why the biggest internet safety advice I give parents of teenagers is to make crystal clear that they will never blame their kid for being the victim, because that is the ONLY way they will ever know there's a problem. bsky.app/profile/raha...

this is the guy that the mainstream media is working to paint as the serious guy in the trump administration who secretly opposes all the crazy stuff trump is doing. a fun contrast to how the media portrayed Harris when she was VP

I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

Q: Is the public going to learn the identities of the men who abused the girls? Trump's Deputy AG: "Like, what does that mean? I don't understand what that means."

The administration that spent the first half of 2025 telling us there was nothing wrong with coordinating literally classified war plans on Signal now is saying that it believes it’s a crime to post publicly available information on Signal.

I would like to know how my prior colleagues, who have chosen to pursue leadership positions under this charlatan, justify ordering agents to break their oaths of office and open investigations on people simply for exercising their legal rights. Good luck gazing in the mirror when this is all over.

this is a fake problem. no one is saying this to regular, offline people who are coming around. they’re saying it to people who are engaged in professional political analysis who committed professional malpractice by scolding people who saw what was coming. no, those people shouldn’t get a break.

Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

Can’t help but notice a lot of social media reports of Tik Tok censoring anti-ICE content in its first weekend under Trump-directed US management, and no mainstream news coverage thus far.

I’ve seen every available video. This one is the most brutal and the most damning (for ICE). Noem, Bovino, and other Trump minions CANNOT be allowed to lie their way through this.

In 1775 a lot of people were unhappy with the King but they weren’t necessarily ready to commit treason. That changed when the King’s troops started shooting their neighbors, stealing food, and raping women.

Minnesota ICE-watchers did this. By relentlessly documenting ICE/BP/DHS abuses—taking on personal risk to do so—they’ve gotten the horrors into more information streams. Got more people to pay attention, undermined Trump regime lies, and shifted the stances of some Democratic officeholders.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts. The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

Aside from the references to his service as a Marine, this should be the baseline response for every single elected Democrat. No mealy-mouthed focus-tested mumbly whining. If you're not fucking furious, get out of the fucking way or an infuriated electorate is roll right over you too.

The conservative intelligentsia and media-industrial complex has been publicly masturbating about getting to kill people for years now, they are orders of magnitude worse than even the MAGA base. Everybody knows this, it's just politically incorrect to say it.

Commander Blop reposted

Also, ICE shouldn't have firearms at all in this context! They are a civil/regulatory enforcement agency. When they are doing domestic immigration enforcement, they don't even enforce criminal law!

LegalEagle@legaleagle.tv

My take on what is clearly murder: a bunch of insufficiently-trained ICE agents dog-pile — and subdue — the victim with multiple guns drawn (why were the guns out?!). One of agents accidentally discharges his improperly-drawn gun, spooks the rest, and then they all unload in to the unarmed victim.

Very bad situation right now. ICE is either trapped or refusing to leave. Black bloc morons absolutely chomping at the bit to burn the neighborhood down, just got attacked by three of them for having a camera out. “Can’t wait to burn it all down tonight”

1. Shoot people like dogs 2. Unrest 3. Martial law The plan is that transparent. Don’t let them

ALL MN PROTESTERS Absolutely nothing could be worse for our cause than violence and rioting. It is what ICE and Trump obviously want. Do not burn down our own city to protest invaders; they do not care; they will enjoy it. Do not do it. Do not let your fellow protesters do it.

There are people on the ground right now who are excited to escalate. I talked to them, one said “isn’t it great?” They don’t care about ICE, the murder, our city. Do not let them control this situation. We are very close to the brink. Observe, protest. Don’t destroy.

This is a very dangerous moment, and if it tilts into broad civil unrest, not only will give Trump exactly what he wants, you will destroy the very businesses and neighborhoods and livelihoods we have been working so hard to protect.

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity
