Aw, thanks!

LAPD wants nearly $100M to police the Olympics. Who's going to pay for it? City Hall is already in dispute over the department's current budget. Now, LAPD wants new vehicles and equipment for 2028.

Police forces consistently use the Olympics their own private cash machine. LAPD is already asking for additional $100 million & we’re 2.5 full years away from the Games. Gives lie to LA28 organizers’ claims that it will deliver a *completely privately funded Olympics*

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant

War at Home A record of ICE’s assault on immigrants and the people’s resistance.

"Wherever the agents appear, even when they lean idly, chatting, we see the cold threat of violence and the fragility of freedom. And in the brave crowds who gather to confront them, scrambling their illusion of total control, we see the power of solidarity..."

my latest is on the odd confluence of unitary executive theory with a president who is mostly AWOL from the business of governance (gift link)

I have bad news for you about Democrats and policing *reform*

Aw, thanks!!! Hope the class went well!

San Francisco Gets An Invasive Billionaire-Bought Surveillance HQ San Francisco billionaire Chris Larsen once again has wielded his wallet to keep city residents under the eye of all-seeing police surveillance. The San Francisco Police Commission, the Board of Super...

For those that have not been following what's happening in San Francisco--an unelected cryptocurrency billionaire just gave millions to the city to expand and consolidate its massive surveillance apparatus (which has just been discovered to be leaking data to ICE) and found a police foundation.

How to record ICE:

1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE.
2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video.
3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS
4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How?
5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked.

Readers, @uncpress.bsky.social has a new website and is celebrating with a 48-hour 50% flash sale (US only, use code 01NEWSITE50) so I thought I'd do a 🧵of some of my favorite American modern history titles available at uncpress.org

DARE to Say No With its signature “DARE to keep kids off drugs” slogan and iconic t-shirts, DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) was the most popular drug education p...

Another favorite is DARE to Say No, by @mfkantor.bsky.social, an insightful critical study of something often remembered as a joke that bridges the fields of education history, carceral history, and political history: uncpress.org/978146967904...

Say it again for those in the back: HUMANITIES USUALLY SUBSIDIZE STEM at most R1s. Yes we have receipts.

genuinely brings me pleasure that no one respects this guy (least of all himself)

Lemme think. Thats a good option for resistance. I have some journal articles more focused on resistance that could work. DM me and we can chat

Sounds good!
