WOW. 19 people, all who were imprisoned and mistreated in a foreign prison at the direct command of the United States, are brave enough to say “We are innocent, and we will endure more time imprisoned to prove that.”
I can only admire the enormous courage such a move takes.
I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
The military industrial complex is cheering today.
⚠️ NEW ACTION: Impeach Trump for his unconstitutional war on Iran.
citizensimpeachment.com/impeach-trum...
On Saturday, February 28th, Donald Trump initiated war on Iran. He admitted the likelihood of Americans being killed for his unconstitutional actions.
We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

TW: Assisted Suicide
Clip from German TV. Kim has #MECFS and describes how her illness has progressed, leaving her bedbound and sensitive to light and sound.
At 25, she talks about her decision to apply for assisted suicide, saying she can no longer live like this.
This is a good read. I'm also thinking about how almost all disability organizations, including ones for Tourette's, have very white leadership, which means many fail to approach situations like this with intersectional nuance. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

El Paso has measles.
There is a total of 17 cases, 13 of which are in a migrant detention camp that consists of tents on the grounds of Fort Bliss.
There's an update on Savannah's gfm. TW so much medical abuse.
Please keep sharing and donating!
By trying to find somewhere less unsafe, she has now lost her NHS provided carers. She's too unwell to do without, so needs to self fund them.
Thank you 🙏🏻

Update:
Feeling unsafe Savannah self-discharged & left QEH in a private ambulance. Even with the CEO of a national charity advocating in person, Guy’s refused to admit her. After waiting over two hours in the ambulance, she was forced to return to QEH.

Paramount should enjoy its growing news monopoly while they have it because when Democrats win back power we are going to break up these anti-democratic information conglomerates. All of them.

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!
