Okay I feel like this is going to come up a lot in the next 24 hours so let's just clear this up:

Ayatollah Khameini, the Iranian supreme leader allegedly killed today, is/was *not* the same person as Ayatollah Khomeini, the supreme leader who came to power in the 1979 revolution.

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

The hidden ICE blueprint that should horrify every American | Will Bunch An internal Department of Homeland Security document shows how ICE plans to cram thousands of detained human beings inside a Georgia warehouse.

What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses?

Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards

Although, not everything in Salem's prison history is so rosey. During our historical research for this story, we came across a report of one person OSP executed in the early 1900s.

Pieces of that man's skin were then sold to elites in Salem as a collectible. A tale for another day perhaps.

โ€˜No one deserves thisโ€™: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

Loretta Smith has never been on your side, Portlanders. And now her reaction to disruptive protests is that she wants to have a firearm on her person?? That doesnโ€™t seem like the gut instincts that Iโ€™m looking for in a City Councilor.

Headline: Immigrants who say their detention is illegal have filed more than 18,000 cases. It's a historic high. Graph: A line chart going from Jan 2009 to Jan 2026 showing very few habeas cases until Trumpโ€™s second term, where the line takes off nearly vertically, showing more than 6,600 cases in Jan 2026 alone.

The Trump administrationโ€™s push for mass deportations has resulted in more cases, known as habeas petitions, filed in federal court in the last year than under the last three administrations combined, including Trumpโ€™s first term.

Right now Rikers Island, the physically largest jail in the entire United States, is holding under 7,000 people.

ICE's warehouse plans include detention camps which will hold between 8,500-10,000 people in buildings not designed for human habitation.

I mean, sure โ€” but having used these wipes just last weekend on my face, I can say that they were way more effective than water alone. 10/10 would use again.

"Public frustration with the limitations of our offices will continue to invite provocateurs and opportunists," Wilson wrote, in part. "They'll insist that local police can impede or arrest federal officers at will, or that wielding civil land use laws and implementing fines can effectively remove ICE from our communities.

"There is something quintessentially American about these demands," he added. "Like my fellow mayors, I, too, have wished that we could find a loophole or dust off a forgotten law. Portland's attorneys have certainly looked. That said, we don't need to pull a legal rabbit out of a hat to win. We only need to stay the course."

Portland, OR mayor Keith Wilson responding to public demands that ICE's land use permit be rescinded after they gassed thousands of peaceful men women and children.

Kinda curious what "the course" we should stay is here, Keith? Watching ICE gas, abduct and sometimes shoot our neighbors?
