The 75 Elections to Watch This March - Bolts The 2026 midterms really are starting. Five states hold all of their primaries for federal and state offices in March, and voters there face high-profile choices. They’ll decide which Democrat... Read More

Tempe, Arizona, has a contract with Flock, a surveillance company that shares data with law enforcement, including ICE. Ending that contract is one candidate’s priority in next week’s city council election there.

The far-right Scottsdale City Council a year after they shuttered a diversity office that had been previously bombed by a neo-Nazi terrorist: Damn there sure are a lot of antisemitic people running for office around here

Vice Mayor Adam Kwasman also published a statement on Twitter about this candidate and criticized her for β€œechoing the toxic ranting of Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes.” Then you scroll down a couple posts and he was just at an event with Sen. Wendy Rogers who literally spoke at a Fuentes rally like…

The Candace Owens vs. TPUSA saga has trickled down to the Scottsdale City Council race because a Candace stan is running for a seat and the entire TPUSA industrial complex is knives out for someone who had a collective social media following of like 100. Surely that won’t backfire.

🧡 Today’s news: Proton turned over payment info for a Stop Cop City account. Not good β€” it's state repression in action.

Controversial opinion: We don't think this means all activists should abandon Proton for docs/email.

It depends on your threat model. Let's explore.

Data center tax breaks cost Phoenix residents millions, city audit says Statewide tax breaks for data center developers are costing Phoenix taxpayers over $12 million in yearly revenue, a new city-sanctioned audit showed.

Data center tax breaks are costing Phoenix $12 million dollars a year.

A new audit says Arizona’s tax breaks for data center developers are costing Phoenix taxpayers the same amount as the city is spending on arts and culture initiatives and environmental programs put together.

Seems partially motivated by an attempt to keep, in their words, β€œGreen New Deal” candidates out of the seats, partially motivated as a way to collect more voter data, and also it’s possibly an β€œeasy” race to target given the race’s overall low-turnout rates.

The ICE Facility in Phoenix you probably didn’t know existed Phoenix ICE detention facility at Mesa airport holds immigrants for extended periods without basic amenities

And obviously it goes without saying but these inhumane facilities always hold people longer than they claim they will. AROCC is designed for a 12-hour hold and people have been held for over a month in these cages:

Like the proposed concentration camp in Surprise, Camp East Montana was designed as a β€œshort-term” processing center. It became the deadliest camp in less than a year. A man died in agony from a tooth infection in Florence days ago. The warehouse projects will be hell on earth and must be stopped.

I actually do think it’s funny how scandalized all the death streamers and news ghouls flying their drones into people’s backyards looking for blood stain shots were acting like no no no ma’am THIS is crossing a line

If DHS couldn't make soft-sided tents work from a health standpoint, then there is an actual 0% chance they will make unventilated, hastily retrofitted detention warehouses work.

I haven't said anything about this before, bc in the grand scheme of horrors this only rates as an inconvenience, but since others are experiencing it:

Just three days after CBP arrested me for filming them outside Broadview on 9/27, my TSA Pre & Global Entry were suspendedβ€”and so were my wife's.

MISSION STATEMENT

The nation-state is fundamental to international partnership, prosperity and peace. It provides the essential bedrock of freedom and self-government. The byproduct is economic opportunity and therefore security. Every country has a rightful obligation to defend its sovereignty and put their interests first. The world is more stable when each nation prioritizes its people's interests.

Likewise, the United States will advance our interests first, while encouraging other nations to do the same. We stand for the sovereign rights of nations, against the authoritarian overreach of transnational institutions, and for reforming global organizations so that they respect national identity and help-not hinder-the innate interests of freedom-seekers everywhere.

TPUSA (Action) is hosting a new annual D.C. event over the next few days called Alliance of Sovereign Nations. Featured guests include some truly awful U.S. officials like Randy Fine, Eli Crane, and Mike Johnson and also members of the far-right Freedom Party of Austria and Alternative for Germany.

And I really will never be able to take him seriously since his weird sexist texts leaked because he was mouthing off about his co-workers not being fuckable and hot enough with a buddy of Jack Posobiec and that guy was like β€œhey here ya go, Jack lol”

Gallego is an act tough on Twitter or CNN guy, which gets him good national coverage but then he’ll do shit like co-sponsor the Laken Riley Act, fundraise with Marc Andreessen, take AI money, and say shit like he supports sending people to CECOT as long as they get due process.

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane

This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster

What an absolutely despicable level of medical neglect this poor man suffered. This is the reality of these concentration camps and ICE will bring more of this to Marana and Surprise if those facilities open.

The meeting ended around 9 PM, and the overwhelming majority once again voiced heavy criticism of the concentration camp. Many offered suggestions on how to stall its construction (DHS is currently projecting an opening at the end of September).

The next Surprise City Council meeting is March 17.

One of the last speakers addressed the child abuse at the Dilley camp in TX, continuing β€œthis facility will be no different” and β€œfamilies will be placed there β€” medical neglect, physical, emotional and sexual abuse, death. Think if your own families lived the trauma we hear out of Eloy or Dilley.”

Walter was back, saying β€œDHS says they are going after the worst of the worst. They are not. They said Renee Good ran over that ICE officer. She did not. They said Alex Pretti was an assassin but he was not so when DHS describes their facility as safe, secure and humane, they are obviously not.”

An 82-year-old vet told the Surprise council he has β€œone fight left” and that is β€œto fight for my City and to fight for those people that I hold dear and this ICE processing center is not going to go through. Period.”

Sign the Petition No ICE Detention Centers Near Schools and Neighborhoods

The VP of the Dysart High student council, who has been vocally against the concentration camp, said she has requested a meeting with the Mayor and has been ignored and also got no real response from their school principal. She’s going to DC to speak about this and asked for support of her petition:
