Big tech is so eager to prostitute itself to the administration, their protests to the contrary notwithstanding! 🤬😡

Among them is Amazon subsidiary Ring, the company behind those AI doorbell cameras that have exploded in popularity over the last few years. Back in October, Ring announced that its devices would soon be looped into a network of Flock AI surveillance cameras. That network, an investigation by 404 Media found, has been available to local and federal police and enforcement agencies like ICE — leaving many worried that their Ring doorbell cams are now feeding into a government panopticon.

@dalfen It's not even remotely true. Even during a shutdown. Congress has the power of the budget. Congress says what gets spent and how much. Not the President. The Executive branch is tasked with executing those priorities set forth by Congress.

I love how the press can't explicitly say that police force is unjustified, even when it is their own reporters being gassed in their cars.

The president has justified federalizing the National Guard and calling up troops by saying it is "protect ICE and other federal personnel and property" as protests outside the ICE detention and processing facility in Broadview, Illinois, have grown increasingly tense and volatile. Federal agents have deployed tear gas, smoke bombs, chemical agents and pepper balls against protesters and even CBS News Chicago reporter Asal Rezaei's vehicle.

Olga of Kyiv

circa 890 - 969

Had vengeance on the Drevlians for murdering her husband

She asked for a tribute of pigeons from their houses

The Drevlians complied, assuming her to be daft, they expected worse

Olga had sulfured bits of cloth tied to the birds' legs, and they returned home, setting their city Iskorosten on fire

I tell this story right now for... no reason, no reason at all

BTW, this is the tamer episode in the epic of her revenge
