MSNBC:
‘American carnage is Trump’s legacy’ says Rep. Jamie Raskin
“American carnage, that's Donald Trump's true legacy. His desire to overthrow the people's election and seize the presidency, interrupt the counting of electoral college votes for the first time in American history...”

🍔 Today, I will eat my first Whataburger. They're new in town and a friend gave me a coupon for a FREE one.
Ain't life grand?

When I went to town today there was a line at Whataburger out of the parking lot and down the road. The dining room was closed. another time. 🙂

Two Harvard students have created an eerie demo of how smart glasses can use facial recognition tech to instantly dox people’s identities, phone numbers, and addresses.
Students Nguyen and Ardayfio are shown chatting up complete strangers on public transit -- pretending that they know them based on information gleaned from the tech.
The most unsettling part is the demo uses current, widely available technology like the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and public databases.
AnhPhu Nguyen, one of the two students, posted the video showcasing the tech in action that was then picked up by 404 Media.
Dubbed I-XRAY, the tech works by using the Meta smart glasses’ ability to livestream video to Instagram.
A computer program then monitors that stream and uses AI to identify faces.
Those photos are then fed into public databases to find names, addresses, phone numbers, and even relatives.
That information is then fed back through a phone app.

The real reason for the Treaty Principles Bill:
I mean, we know it’s all about asset sales, but hey, isn’t that what capitalism is all about? 🤷🏻♀️
"It’s worth remembering that the Three Waters Bill included a binding Treaty principles clause which would likely have proved a significant barrier to any plan to privatise New Zealand’s water supply. Perhaps that’s a key reason why it faced such a withering political attack."

Definitely the reason. Watch them try to do the same thing in the future, in a rush, without those protections.

in reply to Chuck Darwin • • •Remember when HRC talked about a "vast right wing conspiracy" like 30 years ago?
She was right. (she was right about everything tbh)

in reply to Chuck Darwin • • •These #Texas oil-igarchs want to turn the US into a #Christofascist nation.
If we don't get big money out of politics, the #US will not remain a democratic republic for much longer. It will be an oligarchy run by #ChristianNationalists. Very similar to how #Afghanistan is run by the #Taliban.
Say goodbye to religious #freedom or most other freedoms that many #Americans mistakenly believe cannot be taken away.
