A #California #farmworker died on Friday from injuries sustained a day earlier when #US #immigration agents raided a cannabis operation & arrested hundreds of workers, according to a farmworker advocacy group.

Dozens of #ImmigrantRights activists faced off w/ #federal agents in rural Southern California on Thursday. It was the latest escalation of #Trump's campaign for #MassDeportations of immigrants in the US.

They will try to tell you, “Resistance is futile.” It is never so.

The use of AI by lawyers in court is not itself illegal. But Wang found that the lawyers violated a federal rule that requires lawyers to certify that claims they make in court are "well grounded" in the law. Turns out, fake cases don't meet that bar. https://www.npr.org/2025/07/10/nx-s1-5463512/ai-courts-lawyers-mypillow-fines

Holy cow, as an American, I wasn't aware of the Horizon IT scandal. ~1,000 postal workers were wrongfully prosecuted for theft and other crimes, imprisoned, and forced to repay tens of thousands of pounds. 13 of them committed suicide! But it was an IT error! AI will make this worse.

Bass: I just signed an executive directive that puts all city departments and leadership on notice to protect Angelenos—essentially from the federal government.

We’re also filing a FOIA request because we want to know: Who are these masked men, and why are they masked in the first place?

Last time I went for an oil change there were three lads struggling to push a car up a tow truck ramp. They'd just fallen back as I pulled up, and were struggling to try again.

They got the car up in the end because there wasn't anyone around telling them they were doing it wrong or explaining gravity to them or saying that there was no way they'd ever get it up so why bother, instead there was just a random bloke who made it four guys instead of three and the car went up and a little while later that bloke got his wallet out to pay for the oil change and got told to put it away and everybody had a generally nice day.

That's one way that real life is different from the internet
