My wife and I are binge watching #Homeland. We're halfway through season 7 and yowza! Seasons 6 and 7 from 2017-2018 are like a mirror of today. I don't know if the writers were prescient or if we've just been living in this shitty timeline that long...

“Ask each and every Palestinian in diaspora and everywhere, we all have one goal: to hold the steadfast to our homeland. The Israeli occupation forces have turned the entire Gaza Strip into scorched land. We have lost our homes, all our possessions, yet we cannot abandon our homeland. It is our homeland.”

Adding to that the impact that such pointless persecution operations have on the environment, with dozens of land and air vehicles required just to harass, torture, and mistreat people.

There is no logic or sustainable rationale to support that.

ICE is essentially, under any government, fundamentally an ideologically motivated Nazi force.

The #Department of #Homeland #Security is becoming the first federal agency to embrace #AI technology with a plan to incorporate generative A.I. models across a wide range of divisions.

In partnerships with #OpenAI, #Anthropic and #Meta, it will launch pilot programs using #chatbots and other tools to
🔹help combat drug and human trafficking crimes,
🔹train immigration officials
🔹and prepare emergency management across the nation.

The rush to roll out the still unproven technology is part of a larger scramble to keep up with the changes brought about by generative A.I., which can create hyper realistic images and videos and imitate human speech.
“One cannot ignore it,” Alejandro Mayorkas, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said in an interview.
“And if one isn’t forward-leaning in recognizing and being prepared to address its potential for good and its potential for harm, it will be too late and that’s why we’re moving quickly.”

Please boost! The Nevada City Rancheria #Nisenan Tribe has a time-limited opportunity to purchase a land parcel encompassing 232 acres (roughly one square kilometer) located on a historic Nisenan Village site called Yulića near Nevada City in Northern California.

(So yes, they're trying to buy back land stolen from them.)

This is the Tribe’s best opportunity to re-establish a homeland in more than half a century and everyone’s help is needed. $2.4 million includes land, govt-mandated improvements, & operating endowment.
Phase 1 fundraising: $1.5 million by April 4, 2024.
