Irony that #Trump pardoned the actual insurrectionists who tried to overthrow their democracy on Jan 6 while sending in the marines to brutalise its own citizens for believing the rule of law & due process extends to all Americans including migrants, the cornerstone of democracy. #la #marines #trump #usa #migrants #losangeles #nationalguard

From 2018
"ICE Training Day"

The Overton Window has shifted all the way to ban all non-white people from coming to America. It was never about illegal immigration.

@shoq I'm assuming that all of this is premeditated.

The ICE activity itself is a means to rile up people.

Once there are demonstrations, they will just claim it's "out of control" or some other bullshit, and escalate the situation (oh wait, that's literally happening).

Next up:
- Curfews
- Insurrection Act
- a LOT more deployments

If someone fights back (literally): Martial Law.

@indivisibleteam Not a single Mastodon account? Really? I mean, granted, it’s not your fault that they lack a well-known relay method, but still, you could at least have included the biggest of the ActivityPub platforms, no? (Mastodon.Social).

Trump deployed forces against American citizens to chill dissent, spark confrontation, and create an excuse to seize even more power. We won’t back down, but we need to be prepared to handle encounters with law enforcement and de-escalate tense situations.

Writing in Rust gives me such https://xkcd.com/1425/ vibes.

🧠 Rewrite the application's entire cryptographic and network protocol, with no major bugs once it compiles...
⚙️ Sure, gimme a few hours.
🧠 ...and update the tests to concatenate some byte arrays inline.
⚙️ I'll need a research team and five years.

(Yeah, it's kind of like this in every programming language sometimes. Just finding Rust to be... more so.)

@lightweight @captainepoch @djsumdog@djsumdog.com Nextcloud Talk has been production-ready for years. Companies, public sector, universities are using it as part of their Nextcloud Enterprise. I've been using it daily for 1.5 years for chat, video calls and webinars. It works 😁

New version with dashboard, virtual phone, and security improvements was just released last Thursday.

We made this 5 years ago in response to the George Floyd uprising but it is every bit as valid today.

Fuck the police. Fuck ICE. Let's overcome our differences and fight together.

From the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker:

We are actively reporting on multiple attacks against journalists covering protests in LA — including assaults, equipment damage, and other press freedom violations.

Journalists face new restrictions while inside the Pentagon complex in Arlington, Virginia, under a policy announced May 23 by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, including needing escorts to enter areas that they used to access freely:

"Lawmakers want to crack down on college students' pro-Palestinian protests so badly that they literally passed a prohibition on talking," Jimena Pinzon and FPF's Caitlin Vogus write in the Houston Chronicle.

If Paramount settles with Trump, it would be "extremely damaging" to the company and CBS News, Caitlin Vogus tells France 24.

"How can viewers trust that CBS will go forward reporting the news independently, free of favor or fear?"
