Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

the incredible brazilian witchery behind all this

Why didn’t some of the Epstein survivors speak out earlier? “I thought someone was going to kill me,” one explained.

As another asked, “Why did the government work so hard to protect Jeffrey Epstein and not victims like me?”

If what we hope will happen ever happens, we'll watch as many, many people in the world of politics, overnight, go on to pretend they were always against what preceded it. This era has been a highly effective acid test for character. Take notes now, so that you don't forget in the future.

An FBI special agent had sex with prostitutes during overseas assignments and domestic travels and used an agency-issued device to pay for the encounters, the Justice Department’s watchdog said, committing policy violations that agency officials have said could expose agents to extortion.

Happy Perade Day smooth brains….

Abducting people at work sites - meaning they have jobs.
Capturing them at court dates - meaning they're following the law.
Blocking them from accessible higher education - meaning they're striving for more.
And peddling lies about jobless, lawless, driftless.

They crossed the world to reach the US. Now deported under Trump, they're stuck in Panama Over the past week, Panama's government has released dozens of migrants from around the world who were deported from the U.S.

While we rightfully focus on the March deportations to El Salvador, don’t forget the African and Asian migrants quietly removed to Panama in February. Both groups deserve #dueprocess protections under U.S. and international law. @MSNBC_reports #Immigration

If you work on a university campus you have a duty to know this and respond accordingly.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

In response to this student movement, campuses shifted policies dramatically. My favorite account of how universities responded was by @rickperlstein.bsky.social for @theprospect.bsky.social: prospect.org/politics/202...
