Schiff's response to the bottom-feeding bad faith of Republicans on his own committee calling on him to resign, starting at about 1:30, is outstanding.

This is a whole lot and it’s barely made a dent because of the sheer length and severity of the What Facebook’s Done Lately list
Facebook tracks former employees deemed a threat by using location data collected thru Facebook's apps/websites. "Other companies keep similar lists of threats, but Facebook is unique because it can use its own products to...track the location of people" cnbc.com/2019/02/14/facebook…

If Trump failing to report hush money payments to mistresses as campaign expenses just before the election were a “paperwork error,” he would have filed a correction with the FEC, not denied it for over a year.

BREAKING: ACA enrollment down 10% so far with Trump marketing budget down 90%.
The good news: Most can get covered for $75/month no matter pre-existing conditions.
The problem: almost no one knows that after Dec 15 it will be too late to get covered.

So during the summer of 2016, Trump tried to cut a business deal with Russia while publicly attacking NATO and praising Putin, asking Russia to hack his opponent's emails, and while his son and senior staffers met in secret with Russian government intermediaries.

Just to recap: after initially calling our story inaccurate, (and internally calling it “false”), Facebook has now confirmed most, if not all of our reporting. They just waited until eve of Thanksgiving when they thought as few as possible people would be reading.
"Did we ask them to do work on George Soros? Yes." Facebook took responsibility for hiring a lobbying company that pushed negative stories about Facebook’s critics. nyti.ms/2DTRUp8

Speaking of inevitable, CA-45 has been called by the AP for Katie Porter (D). Won't really end up being that close. Goes into the Solid D category for us.

Devastating couple of paragraphs here.
Tech execs will never come to a full realization of their platforms' roles in genocide and the rise in authoritarianism, in part because doing it would require an overwhelmingly traumatic personal reckoning.

A fantastic thread that gives students and non-lawyers alike some insight on what it means to be a privacy lawyer.

This is good and needed. The public should not have to pay for access to public court documents.
And if this were properly done, third parties could build all kinds of useful, possibly-free tools to access & use those public documents.
Yeah, I'm going to keep saying "public."
A new bill proposes free PACER. I like this idea:
"H.R. 6714 also would require updates to the PACER system, such as adding a function to allow any user to easily research the site’s court documents ..."
