Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers canโ€™t find them and theyโ€™ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Can Progressive Mayors Redeem the Democratic Party? Zohran Mamdani isnโ€™t the only candidate challenging the status quoโ€”and having fun doing it.

It's not just Mamdani. Michelle Wu, Katie Wilson--the Dems may soon have a remarkable cast of young, gifted mayors

John Rodgers is STILL a Campaign Finance Scofflaw Hey, remember December 17, when I broke the news that Lt. Gov. John Rodgersโ€™ campaign had reported spending 31.5% more money than it had received? (His final filing for 2024 reported receivinโ€ฆ

#Vermont Lt. Governor Rodgers hasnโ€™t corrected inaccurate 2024 spending reportsโ€” and now heโ€™s missed another deadline.

Weโ€™re supposed to take him seriously as a potential governor, but he canโ€™t keep his books straight or comply with state law. #vtpoli

Citibank is one of the largest funders of oil and gas expansion in the Amazon, worsening the climate crisis and displacing local communities. Instead, Citibank should fund just, community-owned renewable energy projects. Tell Citibank: Stop destroying the Amazon! act.350.org/sign/jul-25-...

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DCโ€ฆ he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office.ย

As a reminder: Trumpโ€™s first act was to pardon HUNDREDS of J6 rioters who assaulted and beat DC police officers. Trumpโ€™s been responsible for a large percentage of the total assaults (and many of the worst/most brutal) on DC police in the last decade.

The impact of Gov. Scottโ€™s cruelty is widespread in Vermont. Iโ€™m helping feed a homeless Vermont woman living outside by a river. She has major health issues and no other place to go โ€” because Scott vetoed emergency motel housing. #vtpoli #vermont

The Scott administration's cutbacks to the motel voucher program have had their inevitable consequence: a dramatic rise in unsheltered homelessness. Congrats?

Also, a curious bit of headline writing at Seven Days.
