Okay now your turn @claudeai
Now roll out Dots in the EU and to Plus users, drop GPT-6.1 Astra, and that would be one hell of a way to end the week.

This is Benjamin Yoho, and his wife. He is the dude who appears to be responsible for Vivek Ramaswamy's ad, which attacked child Rape Victim, Amy Acton. Once again. Here he is.

This should be the end of his campaign. Threatening to use the specter of government force to scare off voters should represent the terminus of the political campaign of a US politician. Particularly when it's accompanied by the same rhetoric that incited an armed insurrection.

When all this is over, @realDonaldTrump will be remembered as the greatest traitor to America in its history. Children in school will learn of his treachery as a warning to future generations. People will spit on the ground when they hear his name. His works will be torn down, one and all.

ICE rip young children away from father—throw little boy down into the street. Boy barely avoids getting run over by car. "They're just kids!" witness yells. "She's holding a baby!" All in front of library playground. Agents so rough with kids—literally knock their shoes off. Incident occurred beside Library Park Playground in Harrison, New Jersey. Ms. Chi doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

Who wouldn't try to run from a man dressed as a construction worker threatening you with a gun? Abolish and prosecute ICE.
Photos from the aftermath of the New York City ICE shooting that were obtained by The Intercept show a federal agent in a high-viz vest weilding an assault rifle. An eyewitness told @NoahHurowitz that an agent at the scene appeared to be posing at a construction worker, until they stashed their high-viz vest. theintercept.com/2026/10/08/…

The ICE agent seen brandishing an AR-15 at the scene of yesterday’s shooting in NYC’s Marble Hill has an auspicious record of lying, excessive force & getting caught by judges. He also goes by “Shooter Cuni” on social media, & posts the exact same gun he had on him today

If Democrats take back the Senate, will you work towards abolishing ICE?
The shooting of a New Yorker by ICE agents today is deeply disturbing, especially amid reports that a child was in the car when shots were fired. I’m relieved the man is receiving medical care and the child was unharmed. But enough is enough. New Yorkers deserve the full truth about what happened. DHS must immediately release all body camera footage and ensure a full, independent investigation. When excessive force is used, there must be accountability. No one is above the law.   For months, I’ve warned that ICE’s increasingly aggressive tactics put lives at risk. That’s why Senate Democrats fought for enforceable safeguards holding ICE agents to the same standards as other law enforcement officers.   DHS can make all the claims it wants. The footage will speak for itself. Release it.

Deeply disturbed by reports that ICE agents shot a man in the Bronx today while a child was in the vehicle. The rogue behavior must be fully and independently investigated by state and local authorities. Any reckless wrongdoer found to have broken the law must be held accountable.

I am outraged by the ICE shooting of a man in Marble Hill today as he sat in his car beside a 5-year-old child. Firing multiple rounds into a car with a child inside, on a busy residential street in the Bronx, is abhorrent and indefensible. It put an entire neighborhood in danger and left a man seriously injured. ICE has long operated as a rogue agency, and today’s shooting is a chilling reminder of how little regard it has for the safety of New Yorkers. I am calling on the DHS Inspector General to open an immediate and independent investigation, and on ICE to release all footage of the shooting. New Yorkers are owed a full accounting, not silence.

Tonight, I spoke with President Trump and DHS Secretary Mullin about the shooting in Marble Hill. I expressed outrage on behalf of New Yorkers and urged them to halt ICE enforcement operations in New York. I also asked that any body camera footage of the shooting be released to the public so we can establish the facts and get to the truth.

Mamdani: There is no explanation for these tactics. There is no explanation for federal officers firing this many rounds into a car that has a five year old in the car. Look at how many people live right here. This is a residential neighborhood. We are right here by a subway.  And the pretext of ICE is, in their words, to keep this country safe. How is it keeping everyone safe to have, as you just heard from the police commissioner, individuals wearing construction vests in masks with long guns? Residents have no idea if these are law enforcement agents, or if they are simply attacking someone on the street. And when it comes to ICE, it begs the question, what's the difference? There is no explanation for this.

I am angry tonight. Because today ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

New Yorkers: Do you have a form of immigration relief called withholding of removal? Have you received an ICE letter summoning you to 26 Federal Plaza? Here’s what  you can do: 
1. Call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365, or call 311 and say "Immigration Legal" for free, confidential help in your native language. 2.

Earlier today, ICE shot a New Yorker in front of a child in Marble Hill. I am keeping the victim and their family in my prayers tonight. We need a full investigation into this shooting. We need accountability.
