"... we never know what our place in a larger lineage of struggle is going to look like. Sometimes, we win. Sometimes, we keep hope and decency alive. Sometimes, we build countercultures that give the next round of resistors a sense of who they are and what they’re made of. All of that matters.

there have been stories trickling around about ICE raids where they refuse to show warrants. It was mostly being chalked up to hubris and emboldened agents, but now we can see it’s official policy

Like there is some cool tourist stuff to do in France but by far my favorite stuff was just wandering around and seeing a 850 year old church and you can just walk in, there’s just a guy there. Also the McNuggets had cranberry sauce.

Tricia McLaughlin & @TriciaOhio 0... The narrative being pushed about Jose Hermosillo is false. On April 8, Hermosillo approached Border Patrol in Tucson and stated he had entered the U.S. illegally through Nogales. He said he wanted to turn himself in and completed a sworn statement identifying as a Mexican citizen who had entered unlawfully. He was processed and appeared in court on April 11. Afterward, he was held by the U.S. Marshals in Florence, AZ. A few days later, his family presented documents showing U.S. citizenship. The charges were dismissed, and he was released to his family. This arrest was the direct result of Hermosillo's own actions and statements.

In an interview with Popular Information, his first with any media outlet, Hermosillo said DHS'. 's account was false. According to Hermosillo, he was visiting his girlfriend's family in Tucson from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Several hours before his arrest, Hermosillo was transported to a hospital in Tucson by ambulance after suffering from a seizure. He has a New Mexico state ID, but did not take it with him during the medical emergency. After being released from the hospital following treatment, Hermosillo did not know how to return to where he was staying. He approached the Border Patrol officer because he was looking for someone to help him. "I saw a car, and I askled] him for help," Hermosillo said. He told the officer that he was staying in Tucson.

"You" re not from here. Do you have your papers?" the officer said, according to Hermosillo. When the officer asked where he was from, Hermosillo said he told the officer, "New Mexico." The officer then accused Hermosillo of lying. "Don't make me lout] like [I'm] stupid," the officer said. "I know you're from Mexico." After that, Hermosillo said, he was arrested. Hermosillo said that he never told the officer that he was born in Mexico, was a citizen of Mexico, or entered the country illegally. And he would not have said those things because they are not true. He signed the transcript released by DHS because the officer ordered him to "sign everything." But Hermosillo did not read it, because he cannot read. According to Hermosillo's girlfriend, Grace Hernandez, Hermosillo has learning disabilities and can only write his name. Hermosillo said he did not graduate from high school and dropped out after the 10th grade.

The officer also signed the document, which said Hermosillo "read" the document or had it read to him. But Hermosillo said no one read him the document. Other documents created by the officer have inaccuracies. For example, the criminal complaint says that Hermosillo was detained "at or near Nogales, Arizona." But Hermosillo was detained in Tuscon, which is more than 70 miles from Nogales. John Mennell, a spokesperson for the U.S. Border Patrol, said that it was an "unintentional" error. Hermosillo said he was detained with about 15 other men in a cell at the Florence Correctional Center. He was served only cold food. He said he contracted the flu because "they have it cold in there and everybody's getting sick." Hermosillo said he requested medicine but was not provided with any.

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

over 100 people are rallying outside the albemarle county courthouse right now to protest the abduction of two local residents here yesterday by masked men with no warrant who claimed to be ICE agents

I am honored that the people who make this city run trust me to run this city.

We are on a mission to lower the cost of living for working class New Yorkers, and with the support of the city’s largest municipal union, we are ready to win.

Thank you @dc37nyc.bsky.social

‘I’m afraid that something will happen to me.’ Detained Tufts student visited in Louisiana by Mass. lawmakers. - The Boston Globe At a press conference Tuesday, Senator Ed Markey and Representative Ayanna Pressley harshly condemned the treatment of Rümeysa Öztürk, a PhD student at Tufts University, and other detainees.

Members of Congress from Massachusetts on Tuesday decried the conditions at immigration detention centers in Louisiana after they met with two political prisoners held at facilities there: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/22/n...

If these abductions do not push every single one of you to question the existence of immigrant "detention" centers and the conditions of ALL prisons and jails, then you are really doing life wrong. Conditions in detention, jails, and prisons in the U.S. ARE TERRIBLE. They are awful every single day.

An Immigrant Held in U.S. Custody ‘Has Simply Disappeared’

“Mr. Prada’s disappearance has created concerns that more immigrants have been deported to El Salvador than previously known. It also raises the question of whether some deportees may have been sent to other countries with no record of it.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/u...

For me, I will remember Francis as the Pope who called the Holy Family Church in Gaza every day as the city, and even the church itself, was bombed by Israel.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

Guys, JD Vance did NOT kill the Pope and it’s stupid and immature to imply he did. The Pope killed himself after meeting JD Vance.

the model for the mass deportation/concentration camp system used by the nazis was directly inspired by the US genocide of indigenpus people via the indian removal act. literally

We wanted to know how everyday Judean people felt about the crucifixion of Jesus. So we talked to three Roman soldiers at a taberna in Gadara.

I know we misuse and overuse this phrase, but oh my God.

This is important. Food banks can bulk buy, and stretch that money further than you can. They also know what they actually need. Money is better!

Another huge ruling! The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals just DENIED the government's motion for a stay in the trans military ban case.

The government CANNOT enforce it's ban on transgender people in the military still.

BIG day for pro-transgender rulings.

Judge Blocks Passport Ban For Plaintiffs, Citing Government Animus And Equal Protection The federal judge ruled that transgender people's passport changes do not, as the Trump executive order stated, deprive the "dignity, safety, and well-being of women."

1. In a landmark ruling, a federal judge has blocked the passport ban for transgender Americans... government ban likely violates equal protection, and is made with animus.

Though the ruling only applies to plaintiffs, it is expected expand in coming weeks.

There isn't a story on the BBC News site about today's trans rights rally at Parliament Square where it's estimated 20k attended. But they did have a story last week about the Let Women Speak transphobe rally in Bristol where 100 people attended.

i think we know there's no plan, there was never a plan, dems forgot how to do anything except means-tested-to-death gestures or republican-lite legislation
the institutional capture is complete. any chance of exiting fascism USA is going to have to come from outside existing institutions
game time

The Trump regime is now using US Attorneys to intimidate academic journals by sending them letters demanding they explain how they ensure ‘viewpoint diversity.’ Journal editors should be public about this and coordinate to refuse to comply with these fascist tactics.

direct action gets the goods, will

never

i just think it'd be really funny if rfk jr's kids filed a petition with MA state court to have dad declared an adult in need of guardianship based on mental incompetence. they could use his statements as DHHS secretary as evidence

Here at Target, we believe in the importance of staying in step with the evolving external landscape. However, it’s clear that our recent policy changes around DEI have missed the mark. Truthfully, we did not realize you queers had money

sweet summer child, welcome to miami

been thinking about this one a lot with the current katy perry/gayle king discourse
