One of the first things Dems should do with their majority is predicate QI on proper use of body cams.

The ICE officer who shot a Venezuelan man in Austin was not using a body camera during the Sunday incident, according to news reports.
The officer was issued a body camera, but it is unclear why he was not wearing the device during the shooting.

Ever heard of Peter Thiel? He helped start PayPal and Palantir, a data company that builds surveillance tools to spy on you. He's one of the most powerful men in Silicon Valley. He’s also dumping millions into Nebraska to help Pete Ricketts.

Here's some unsolicited advice for my Democratic friends - in office and running.
Think twice before hiring consultants who are cozying up to private equity, signing up to defend prediction markets, or telling candidates to not say what they actually feel about the big AI companies.

Trump corruption to cover for Senator Collins. Sadly expected. HT @emptywheel.bsky.social
Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign.
The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers.
Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
