"San Diegans Push Back on Flock ALPR Surveillance"
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/06/san-diegans-push-back-flock-alpr-surveillance
"ALPRs like Flock’s don’t prevent crime—they just vacuum up data on everyone who drives past. The resulting error-prone dragnet can then chill speech and be weaponized against marginalized groups, like immigrants and those seeking trans or reproductive healthcare.
Despite local and state restrictions barring the sharing of ALPR with federal and out of state agencies, San Diego Police have reportedly disclosed license plate data to federal agencies—including Homeland Security Investigations and Customs and Border Patrol"

Donald Trump's budget cuts are directly threatening victim support programs like SASS, which provides support for rape victims. In many cases, without sufficient support, rape victims and domestic assault survivors go to the judge and beg them to allow the abuser back into their lives. Frequently, prosecutors have no choice but to drop charges b/c of lack of cooperation. So much for the GOP being tough on crime. https://eugeneweekly.com/2025/04/24/sassing-back/ #Trump #Oregon #Eugene
The federal Department of #Veterans Affairs plans to build a sizable behavioral health clinic in #Eugene for Lane County area vets. But the agency apparently doesn’t want to tell the public — or veterans — about it. https://eugeneweekly.com/2025/04/03/vas-stealth-project/ #Oregon #Trump

@ai6yr @douglasvb I have posted this before here. There is a shop here in #Eugene #Oregon that does EV conversions for all sorts of vintage cars including Jag E-types.
Yes, just rip out all the Lucas crap, buy a used Tesla (prices are rock bottom now) and make it an EV. (I actually do not know what tech they use, I doubt they strip old Teslas.)

MobilizeHands Off! Eugene Fights Back · Hands Off**Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.** We are fighting back!
They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now.
🚨 **On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the streets to fight back with a clear message: Hands off!** 🚨
This mass mobilization day is our message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Alongside Americans across the country, we are marching, rallying, and protesting to demand a stop the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country.
A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
This mobilization in Eugene Springfield is collectively organized by the Activist Coalition of Eugene Springfield (ACES). This coalition includes Indivisible Eugene Springfield, 50501 Eugene, Springfield-Eugene SURJ, Eugene, Party for Socialism & Liberation (PSL), Transponder/Lavender Network, Oregon Community Asylum Network (OCAN), Beyond Toxics, & Trans Alliance of Lane County (TALC)
