If you haven't read about this raid, you should. It was some real gestapo shit. Trashing a bunch of people's homes for no reason, almost certainly warrantless

I have a fresh idea for a vampire story. In this story, the vampires are a metaphor for undead monsters who want to drink your blood.

The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

Based on Israel's own data: "Between March and June, Israel allowed just 56,000 tonnes of food to enter... less than a quarter of Gaza’s minimum needs for that period. Even if every bag of UN flour had been... handed out... starvation was inevitable. Palestinians did not have enough to eat."

Thousands of Legal Workers in NYC To Potentially Strike by Week’s End Joined at a rally Tuesday by mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani and Attorney General Letitia James, UAW urges tapping the city’s rainy-day fund to pay for lawyers’ raises.

“We are overworked, we are underpaid, we are overlooked, and still we are committed. This work fills our hearts with joy, but we are drowning."

ICE Lawyers Are Hiding Their Names in Immigration Court ICE attorneys fighting to deport immigrants are able to obscure their identities — no masks required.

Lawyers for ICE are increasingly hiding their identities in court. This is completely unprecedented.

“We’re not really doing names publicly,” said Judge ShaSha Xu — after stating her own name and those of the immigrants and their lawyers.

The Message Is ‘We Can Take Your Children’ More systematically than in his first term, Trump is rolling back protections for undocumented minors.

Monstrous. "More and more, children are being picked up on family vacations, at traffic stops, and at worksites, and winding up in detention."

Dozens of Palestinians killed in latest Israeli attacks near food aid distribution site, medics and witnesses say Witnesses describe people shot in head and torso near sites run by Israeli-backed US organisation Gaza Humanitarian Foundation

There is no longer any doubt that Israel has set up a fake humanitarian organisation so it can kettle Gazans into a kill box and murder them en masse

It is evil beyond description and in a decent world it would result in immediate, massive, global action to stop them and prosecute those responsible

There was essentially zero coverage of the disabled protest to stop Medicaid cuts. Capitol police dragged protesters out, many in wheelchairs, and arrested 34 people. It was barely a blip on the news because nobody really cares about the disabled.

DOJ announces plans to prioritize cases to revoke citizenship Denaturalization is a tactic heavily used during the McCarthy era and one that was expanded during the Obama administration and grew further during President Trump's first term. It's a tool usually us...

"The Justice Department is aggressively prioritizing efforts to strip some Americans of their U.S. citizenship...At least one person has already been denaturalized...June 13, a judge ordered the revocation of the citizenship of Elliott Duke, who uses they/them pronouns."

hey don't forget to turn off biometric access to your phone and if you did happen to forget, in an emergency, pressing the power button 5 times on your iphone will lock it & it can't be unlocked again without the passcode even if you were silly & left face ID on 🙂

One attorney, Lizbeth Mateo, said ICE officials slated several of her clients for check-ins at the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown L.A. but when they showed up on Tuesday, they were detained and immediately escorted to the basement.

Mateo said a couple and their two children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, spent the night in a room with no beds and limited access to food and water. Mateo said the father had previously been issued a stay of removal, barring him from deportation but he and his family were detained anyway. His wife was released Wednesday evening along with their children since she needed medical attention due to a high-risk pregnancy. He was still being detained early Friday, Mateo said.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.

Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Sure, Cuomo's bagel order is bad but you know what's worse? The fact that he resigned in disgrace after sexually harassing a dozen women, is still using taxpayer dollars to destroy them, and sent thousands of seniors to die in nursing homes during COVID and then covered it up.
