π¨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.
Never has the term "doom scrolling" been more literal.
I donβt want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed.
Here are the words she left behind:

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.
BREAKING NEWS: Coast Guard Security Forces opened fire on a U-Haul van advancing through their barricade just before 10pm during protests at Alameda Coast Guard Island in Oakland.
I think that actually turned out to be Quds News being wrong. Internet Archive appears to not be able to mirror Instagram. They have a script that redirects the archives to a login page.
And the force is coming from the CHP β Gavin Newsom's state police. California Democrats have surrendered and pledged submission before they were even challenged.
They are worse than useless. They are complicit.

Calling Center for American Progress nonpartisan is a bit absurd.

Here's a great one...the building with with Martuni's on the ground floor that happens to have 32 units of rent controlled housing is also getting a height bump to 140'.
These ridiculous leftovers from the Iraq war.
This one has a driver's side windshield with 10% visibility, and they have to put a pan under it because it's leaking oil.
Someone finally wrote the data-center/electricity inflation story.

omg this guy
He's probably the perfect person to go over the history. He's so passionately in love with every detail.
And of course, it's someone who thinks the Korean War was heroic, and the Cold War was about the virtues of freedom and democracy.
He's probably just unhappy because he was promised a few wars and CIA coups in this hemisphere, and he gave up the Senate for a subservient position to the person who spent the 2016 primary humiliating him, and he hasn't gotten to drop any bombs of his own.
A passionate embrace by the two worst comb-overs on the planet.
Get off our streets! Washington, DC
This is disturbingly jingoistic and fawning over the military-industrial complex, but I had no idea how deep its ties to stanford were.
watching. :)
Obamaworld is some stump speeches every four years saying "don't boo, vote!"; an annual list of book/podcasts/music recommendations, and patriotic-themed Netflix programming.
Obama still thinks he's 2008 Obama, and is most concerned with being upstaged. When he does speak, it's about acquiescence.

This is exactly one block from the sandwich throwing incident. The neighborhood is being collectively punished for it.
