Israeli map showing all of southern Lebanon in red with yellow arrows pointing to north of the Litani river

The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.

The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.

For the first time in over a century, families across the U.S. have to fear their children growing up without citizenship in the only home they've ever known.

We'll be defending the right of birthright citizenship at the Supreme Court on April 1 in our case Barbara v. Trump.

I got this today after paying a family’s back rent to stop an eviction that had been filed. I feel that weight in my bones, and I’m glad she gets to sleep tonight. No one should ever have to feel that fear.

Florence ICE detainee dead after untreated tooth infection, official says An ICE detainee, who had been at a Florence detention center for four months, died Monday following an untreated tooth infection.

This is horrifically cruel. “A Haitian asylum seeker held for four months at Florence Correctional Center died Monday at a Scottsdale hospital due to complications from an infected tooth, a local official in Chandler said Tuesday.” An excruciating and wholly preventable death. No words are adequate.

America is a genocidal entity.

If these fuckers introduce war manufacturing articles, the Dems will vote for it. They already voted for the largest military budget in world history right after attacking Venezuela, and that is directly lowering this war machine. Here and abroad.

As Arkansas weighs a prison book ban, formerly incarcerated readers share how books reshaped their lives - Arkansas Times Arkansas is considering the strictest book ban in the country, which would forbid all outside books, magazine and newspapers from being sent directly to people in prison. To understand what’s at stake...

“All of those books will be only those that have been signed off by the institution…and will not spark any ideas of specifically freedom, because that is how a lot of people gain the power and energy to fight on.” - Brotha Knowledge, 44, Little Rock, recently paroled after nearly 30yrs behind bars

Vehicle Tire Pressure Sensors Enable Silent Tracking Like many other features and systems in modern cars, tire pressure sensors leak sensitive data that can be abused by threat actors.

Security researchers have revealed that signals from tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMSs), required in U.S. cars since 2007, can be used to track vehicles from 40-50 meters away using devices costing $100.

TPMSs send a unique sensor identifier that never changes during the lifetime of the tire.

A scary movie shrinks the world’s horrors down into, not manageable exactly, but bounded, feelable parcels. In a landscape dense with quiescent cultural products, horror is antianesthetic.

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

Today should be your 38th birthday.. When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Alex's mom on his 38th birthday.

مرگ خامنه‌ای را به همه آزادی‌خواهان تبریک می‌گوییم.

مزه تلخی در این شیرینی انجام این اعمال توسط دولت‌های فاشیست اسرائیل و آمریکا است. اگر با نوکرهای دوزاری خود مانند رضا پهلوی برای مصادره انقلاب در مبارزات مردمی مداخله و تفرقه نمی‌کردند، شاید زودتر این روز را می‌دیدیم.

This is bad news.

Honestly every time I've seen public records laws being respected for the last year I've been surprised that something like this hasn't happened sooner.
