A 19 yr old girl was kidnapped at a Massachusetts airport and deported to Honduras, illegally.

A judge already said she was not to be deported.

She was headed to Texas to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She did not make it.

This story needs to be heard by everyone!

It is a deep disgrace to the Jewish people that Stephen Miller, a man who would betray his own people to the Nazis as he goosestepped into the camps himself, is treated better by our institutions than Jews who publucly oppose the same kind of genocide and ethnic cleansing he endorses.

This look at COP30 quotes Matthew Huber's Bulletin piece on what would happen if Earth became too hot for animals.

"In the United States, just 3 degrees Celsius of warming conditions in simulations tend to be hotterβ€”when humidity is factored inβ€”than heat waves in North Africa today."

COPs vs CO2 On the most important climate scoreboard β€” the atmosphere β€” our kids are losing spectacularly.

Despite decades of international climate summits (officially called United NationsΒ Conference of the Parties, or COPs), the blanket of climate-destabilizing CO2 continues to grow thicker at an accelerating rate. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/21/a...

β€˜A Pretty Ugly History’: How Exxon Exported Climate Denial to the Global South With Brazil about to host COP30, DeSmog has obtained copies of checks Exxon mailed to the right-wing Atlas Network in the 1990s to turn Latin America against climate treaties.

Starting in earnest around 1997, during the early years of UN-led efforts to forge a global climate pact, Atlas Network and its partners created and executed a playbook to sabotage support for international treaties across the Global South, according to hundreds of documents obtained by @desmog.com

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

For the people asking me what I mean by "people over institutions" and "abolish the carceral state":

The American prison industrial complex is a for profit institution built on the systematic oppression and criminalization of racialized people. It should be eliminated.
