I think things like this are so important for people who don't see them transpire, or the videos of people's entire tent homes going into dumpsters. Interviewing people about what they lost in a sweep:
People who experienced homeless encampment sweeps in Washington state and Tennessee wrote about the impact it had on their lives. Our team @propublica.org added these to our page featuring stories from people across the country: projects.propublica.org/impact-of-ho...

I am a bit of a broken record on this, but are local DAs going to let this continue indefinitely? The ICE agents didn't have any kind of warrant, didn't identify themselves, and then recklessly started firing. Let them argue federal immunity.
A man understandably refused to hand over his ID or get out of the car for a bunch of masked thugs who refused to identify themselves. And when he drove away, they opened fire on him. This isn’t how you do any sort of enforcement when your goal is to uphold the law. This is gangsterism.

"Liberals already ruined it" shows the plot here. These aren't impartial law enforcement officers protecting all citizens. They are partisan paramilitary militia, terrorizing domestic opponents.
While masked agents were violently attacking a delivery worker this morning, bystanders repeatedly asked to see their badge numbers but they refused. Bystander: You guys are ruining this country, you know that, right? Agent: Liberals already ruined it.

something i tried today that seemed to get good mileage was using the "hey i saw this statement by Visa that said:-" as an opener, and then segueing it into "and i bring that up because i want to buy (mainstream thing that technically is against their content policy. ex: GoT)"
There's a good tactic to keep them on the phone longer in here: Start by saying you're concerned about a statement that the processor has put out, and then read the entire statement without stopping. This will cause confusion and awkwardness if they just repeat it back to you, which they likely will

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is. In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol. And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

The treatment of the TikTok ban might seem silly, but it is, effectively, a sign that the constitutional government we have operated under for more than 200 years is no longer in effect. Read the thread.
NEW: In letters to companies with app stores, AG Pam Bondi purported to be "irrevocably relinquishing any claims" against them — Apple, plus Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and T-Mobile — for violating the TikTok ban. This is so, per Bondi, b/c Trump said it's OK, despite contrary language in the law.
In good news! Now plz plz plz plz plz call your House reps so the whole bill gets shot down in the final round of votes
Folks! The ban against states regulating AI is DEAD! It’s was voted 99-1! This victory belongs to us all! Unfettered GenAi is an issue for us all, and groups from all walks of life came together to demand we regulate! Your calls and action made the difference! So thank you everyone! We did this!
