The Bureau of Labor Statistics, after repeatedly putting out wrong job numbers and then revising them sharply downward months later, wants us to believe the US economy added as many jobs in January 2026 as it did all last year. 🤔

@gwynnion due to fake job offers to ICE goons?

I've been watching Pam Blondi's sickening behavior at this HJC hearing today. She is reprehensible.

Ooop!

Rep. Jayapal asks the #Epstein survivors to stand up & raise their hands if Attorney General Bondi's DOJ has still not met with them.
Then she asks #Bondi to apologize to them. Bondi refuses saying she will not get down in the gutter for Jayapal's "theatrics."

Other steps that could help us move towards 100% digital sovereignty in government IT systems;

Again, a deadline needs to be set for this transition to be completed. With a series of steps from the easiest to the hardiest.

Require Export

Mandate that any software used in govt must be able to export all data, in vendor-neutral formats.

New in PN: Trump tries and fails to extort Canada

Organizers in Minnesota have transformed crisis into action and tragedy into solidarity. On Thursday, those organizers and MN leaders will share what they’ve learned so we can all be better prepared to organize and protect our neighbors from ICE and CBP deployments: https://www.crowdcast.io/c/reimagine/register?utm_source=indivisible

Tell the to those who can't afford the trips or means or access to their birth certificates or other mandatory "papers." Mostly students, the elderly, the poor, Black and Brown people, those not born in hospitals, on & on. Yes, this is "papers please" only now it applies to every American.

Congressman Jamie Raskin just said that he was able to view the full and unredacted Epstein Files, and searching Donald Trump's name resulted in "MORE THAN A MILLION" results.

We knew of 38,000 mentions. That means we know of only ~3% of Trump's involvement with a convicted child sexual abuser and sex trafficker.

Anyone still not ready to impeach and remove him is complicit. Period.

Judge’s bottom line: the way ICE is seizing drivers, confining them, and treating them like criminals is unconstitutional because it is a deprivation of liberty without due process. 5/

"In 1999, I interviewed Prince for TIME and he told me to leave my tape recorder off because he didn’t trust what future technology might do with unauthorized recordings of his voice.

At the time, I thought Prince was being paranoid ... I realize now that Prince wasn’t paranoid, he was prescient."
