I used this system just recently for a story on small arms purchases by DHS. Taking it offline unquestionably makes the US government more secretive and less accountable.
It's a Boeing 737 with a queen bed, showers, kitchen and a bar.
Shipping more and more code with agents means I'll finally have to learn how to write tests won't I?

It doesn't matter what it does under the hood, your audience wants to see lots of computer-y words scrolling through the terminal quickly
Pro tip, always write code that makes lots of unnecessary print statements so it looks cool and hackerish to anyone looking over your shoulder

The brutality in Minneapolis has in effect taken a very popular issue for Trump (immigration enforcement) and turned it into a political liability
Hard to argue with this. Great piece by @vermontgmg.bsky.social
Remarkable scenes of resistance.
Another resounding win for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party
Why is Dem leadership not on the ground in MN? If the answer is “polls show Trump’s disapproval is only -15 on deportations, but -25 on prices,” thats a Bad Use Of Polling and a complete failure in their capacity as leaders to lead public opinion and fight for democracy and the rule of law
A powerful essay from a Minneapolis-based writer on fear and solidarity under occupation
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...
Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

Screenshot of text reading: The FBI intends to identify available software solutions to store and search subjects at the classified level. This solution is not intended to replace the Next Generation Identification System Functionality, which was developed and implemented in collaboration with the FBI’s federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial partners. The solution shall reside at the Secret and/or Top-Secret/SCI level with the ability to support data feeds from external systems. The solution must allow the ability to enroll and search face, fingerprint, palmprint, iris, and latent fingerprints, and associated biographic information with a given set of biometrics.
The FBI wants to build a classified/Top-Secret level biometric identity search system, per this RFI to government contractors.

The stated reason for ICE agents being in Minnesota is because of the ongoing fraud claims around daycare and other services.
The two prosecutors leading those investigations have now resigned in the wake of Renee Good’s shooting. Even the internal supposed logic of this deployment is falling apart
