Why Kamala Harris Must Break the Cycle of Unlawful and Abusive Government Surveillance

The ACLU is calling on a Harris-Walz Administration to halt civil liberties harms caused by the government’s spying on and discriminating against Americans in the U.S. and abroad.

Since this nation’s founding, the executive branch has been granted — or has claimed — immense power to enforce the law, including the power to surveil, investigate, and impose criminal or other sanctions that deprive individuals of their freedoms. Today, national security agencies — including those with law enforcement, intelligence, homeland security, and defense functions — combine their expansive authorities with unprecedented digital tools that peer into our lives and collect immense amounts of information about us.

And don't forget the role of Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, and Apple in all of this. We are living through a War Against Privacy^TM^.

From the author of _Neuro Tribes, Steve Silberman, a strong endorsement of this NYT Opinion piece/Guest Essay_

My Son and Gus Walz Deserve a Champion Like Tim Walz

Incandescently brilliant piece by Tina Brown on her autistic son and Gus Walz. We must BURY Trump and Vance at the ballot box and shovel dirt down the throat of the zombie corpse of the former Republican party. Please spread this gift link.

I hadn't noticed how Fox & Fiends were apparently ridiculing a proud, exhuberant son, #TrumpVirus style - pure ignorance & disrespect. Then I saw the reports, not surprising but a reminder of the hate & #disinformation spreading #GQP #media can be.

Supposedly unlocked, but YMMV.... So above is the heart of it. #truth

“Their Project 2025 will make things much, much harder for people who are just trying to live their lives. They've spent a lot of time pretending they know nothing about it. But look, I coached high school football long enough to know ,and trust me on this, when somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they're gonna use it.”

Yeah--any "negative effects" from this would be to exploitive employers.

⬆️ @dangillmor>> Really hate to see Harris endorsing a terrible Trump tax proposal. Pure pandering -- no panacea for workers in a crappy system, and bad for America's economic health.

This is a savvy move by #KamalaHarris to neutralize #Trump's pandering to hospitality workers.

Yes, the pandering started with Trump, who is all for billionaires, except when it comes to workers in Vegas.

#Harris did what any warrior would have done to defend and shore up votes in #Nevada.

Walz chosen as VP

“How often in 100 days do you get to change the trajectory of the world? How often in 100 days do you get to do something that's going to impact generations to come?” Walz asked.
