Donโ€™t let Trump get away with calling it Alligator Alcatraz. Alcatraz is where convicted criminals were sent.

Itโ€™s American Auschwitz, where innocents are sent to die.

ICE agents wonโ€™t be forgotten or forgiven for their crimes against humanity.

He was tried by Soviets and imprisoned for eight years but that was not recognized by the Federal Republic.

โ€œOnly one aspect is important to him: He wants the crimes to be exposed. He wants Formanekโ€™s children, his friends, his acquaintances to find out. His past, he says, should catch up with him as well.โ€

The names of ICE agents will be public and their families and friends will be ashamed of them.

ICE just got a 265% detention funding boost.

Palantir software is being used to create the federal governmentโ€™s first national citizenship data bank.

The Trump regime is attacking naturalized citizens and birthright citizenship.

Be warned โ€” Trumpโ€™s police state is here.

Concentration Camp Duty: The Last SS Guard Gregor Formanke stood guard in Sachsenhausen. Jerzy Zawadzki was nine years old, and a prisoner. When Formanek is indicted at age 99, their lives intersect once more.

He was the last SS guard, about to be tried when he died at 100. Let this warn the ICE agents who think they are only guards, following orders. Your masked crimes against humans and humanity will mark you to the end of your days.

Good point. Still, we need to judge the old guard based on what they do in this moment. If they do not stand up now then they once-and-for-all Mark themselves as vestiges of a past best left behind.

Do not stay at a Hyatt hotel. They're running fake "smoking detectors" specifically as a revenue-generating scheme and arbitrarily fining guests $500.

Iโ€™m an old white woman with two Uni degrees and when I hear Pelosi say we should move past the Epstein stuff and Schiff using his best law professor persona to get his message through to young uneducated repubs on the fence about voting for Dems, I canโ€™t help but think โ€˜wtf is wrong with youโ€™?

Dem Party: We are spending $20M to figure out how to talk to male voters.

Mamdani: Save your money. I have +45 favorability with male voters & +73 with men under 45. Endorse me.

Dem Party: No way dude. Nowโ€”why is our favorability is -54? Let's spend $20M on wealthy consultants to figure it out!

AI guzzled millions of books without permission. Authors are fighting back. Authors are appealing for help from Congress and the courts after Meta and Anthropic used millions of books to create AI technology, without seeking consent.

Journalists constantly guzzle information from countless sources without permission or payment, but we never hear about that.

The left is also shifting the Overton window. Just look at the rise of Zohran Mamdani, a self-styled democratic socialist in New York โ€” or a new poll from the rightwing Cato group showing that 62 and 34 per cent of 18 to 29-year-old voters like socialism and communism, respectively. Indeed, the political scientist Dennis Snower argues that while a โ€œleft-right divide remains influentialโ€ in politics, it has โ€œmorphed into a vicious battle between populists versus the โ€˜eliteโ€™ in many countriesโ€ โ€” often played out on social media and substack.

Fairly regular.

This is terrible: An FT editor swapping ideas with a fascist idea man. And in an exercise of bothsidesing that should go in the museum, she equates him with Mamdani:
