In particular, much of the education system remains in crisis

The Guardian has identified the Columbia student abducted by DHS as Ellie Aghayeva. She posted the IG story below:
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
An image of an official announcement from Columbia University in the City of New York, dated February 26, 2026. The letter is signed by Claire Shipman, Acting President. The text states that at 6:30 a.m. that morning, Department of Homeland Security agents entered a Columbia Residential building and detained a student, allegedly using misrepresentations about searching for a "missing person" to gain entry. The announcement reiterates university policy that law enforcement must have a judicial warrant or subpoena to access non-public areas, noting that an administrative warrant is insufficient. It instructs community members to ask agents to wait and to contact Public Safety if they seek entry to such areas. The university notes it is working to gather details, reach the student's family, and provide legal support.
Columbia University just emailed affiliates letting them know that federal agents from DHS abducted a student this morning from a campus residence under false pretenses and with no warrant or probable cause.

The Trump Admin is urging SCOTUS to find that a law disarming cannabis users is constitutional because founder-era laws authorized taking guns away from "habitual drunkards" to preserve public safety.

CNN doing PR for Johnson here by claiming "the general practice is for presidents, select military officials & select government officials to lie in honor" without noting exceptions. Like Billy Graham. So White preacher gets to lie in state but not Black one?

Hey yeah I have a clear answer- it’s because Alex Pretti was legally armed and they used it to justify his extrajudicial murder at the hands of the state. It did not allow him to defend himself against the state. Hope this helps!

New York cannabis regulators and a licensed cannabis business have urged a state appellate court to find that the state's marijuana law preempts localities from enforcing more stringent location policies for marijuana stores than what is found in state law.

“If a family tells us there were five people inside, and we only recover three intact bodies, we treat the remaining two as ‘evaporated’ only after an exhaustive search yields nothing but biological traces—blood spray on walls or small fragments like scalps,” he added.
Israel used illegal, US-made bombs to "evaporate" almost 3,000 Palestinians.

It’s day 64 of the ICE occupation of MSP.
Today ICE officers once again arrested observers at gunpoint, caused lockdowns of neighborhood schools, and harassed people on the street simply for their skin color.
Nothing has changed, despite the rhetoric from “leaders.”

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.
Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.
