Companies are often forbidden from telling customers when they hand over data to authorities. To counter this, Israel reportedly worked with Google & Amazon on a secret system to alert the government when Israeli data is given to foreign investigators. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Revealed: Israel demanded Google and Amazon use secret ‘wink’ to sidestep legal orders

The tech giants agreed to extraordinary terms to clinch a lucrative contract with the Israeli government, documents show

He’s saying almost the exact same racist “they don’t belong here” shit as JD Vance, literally at the same time that he was also saying it

JD Vance being a racist bitch as usual: Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

This is an explicit call for segregation. Like Donald Trump, JD Vance is a segregationist. The Trump administration is run by segregationists trying to rehabilitate segregationism. They've felt aggrieved about & have been fighting against our frankly way-too-limited desegregation efforts for decades

JD Vance wants you to (racistly) blame the housing crisis on its victims.

Note: This is me — I asked this question.

You’ll hear me say “yes you have” here — because Johnson was already *directly asked* about one of these instances (when the Presbyterian minister was shot in the head with a pepper ball) in one of earlier shutdown press conferences.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 6d

Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos

BREAKING: Israeli PM Netanyahu says that Hamas has violated the ceasefire and has ordered "immediate, powerful" strikes in Gaza.

Hamas is also accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire.

A new report reveals that anti-abortion activists—some of whom are opposed to IVF because it involves discarding unused embryos—spent more than a year lobbying the Trump campaign, and then his administration, to ensure that officials did not subsidize or mandate coverage of the procedure.

Report: Anti-abortion leaders helped tank Trump’s promise of free IVF

"There were letters and meetings and calls—a lot of activity."

I heard Saddam Hussein was using chemical weapons against his own people. I heard that a lot, actually! It was constantly repeated as argument for the moral imperative of "regime change." I bring this up for no reason.

I like this and agree with it but Guillermo del Toro is quickly becoming the world’s number one source of inspirational quotes we can post on Facebook as we age into embarrassing aunt and uncle ages, gonna embroider that shit onto a pillow and paint it on an old wooden board

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

I did give subsistence farming a hard think after the kids and I went to see Grave of the Fireflies last month. If I had to, I think what I'd do is rip everything out and sow fava beans. Complete protein, multiple harvests per year + you can till the greens back in to keep the nitrogen cycle going.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

Lecturing active soldiers about being too fat while dropping standards so low for the ICE deportation force that a third of their recruits can't handle the easiest PT test I've ever heard of www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

More than a third have failed so far, four officials told me, impeding the agency’s plan to hire, train, and deploy 10,000 deportation officers by January. To pass, recruits must do 15 push-ups and 32 sit-ups, and run 1.5 miles in 14 minutes.
“It’s pathetic,” one career ICE official told me, adding that before now, a typical class of 40 recruits had only a couple of candidates fail, because the screening process was more rigorous.
