Hard to go down with dignity when your society is defeated by something called “Nano Banana Pro.”
Nano Banana Pro also seems to be good at moving the camera when recreating images, which can add a false sense of authenticity to sets of images, for example:

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

Today for @theredoubt.net, I'll be speaking to an expert on what's changed — specifically, in terms of detention and the rights of those arrested — for undocumented immigrants in Donald Trump's America.

Got a question? Let me know and I'll ask.

2) Two nights in one or the other

I'll take the Ws where we can, but it's still grim seeing "only 43% of Americans approve of THE STRAIGHT-UP EVIL PARTY THAT'S MAKING EVERYTHING MORE EXPENSIVE."

People can debate the electoral politics of it, but ultimately any decision to fund this government is a decision to fund lawlessness.
A reminder that one of the “concessions” the Senate cave-in caucus claimed they got was a promise to hire back the federal employees illegally RIF’d during the govt shutdown.

The Dems “negotiated” that with Congressional GOP… but the hiring is up to the White House… one that doesn’t honor deals.

NEW: ICE has torn up its $180M cap on a proposed immigrant-tracking program and is now guaranteeing private surveillance firms at least $7.5M each, with potential payouts reaching $281M per vendor. The change signals a shift from “pilot” to full-scale outsourcing of street-level investigative work.

If you appreciate this work, I am asking for a small fraction of what Tucker Carlson gave Facebook: www.theredoubt.net#/portal/signup

I know a lot of folks are asking for your $8, but I want it more.

A funny detail is that Tucker is doing this “maybe Bush did 9/11” thing for a company he cofounded with a former aide to Dick Cheney.

Tucker Carlson previously accused Meta of censoring his voice. But since 2024, he has given the company millions of dollars to promote far-right conspiracy theories on chemtrails, vaccines and 9/11.

In 2000, George W. Bush ran against "nation building." Rarely do politicians campaign on a platform of "I'll start wars" (though, in 2024, Trump and Vance did actually run on bombing Mexico).
