Sohaib and his family need your help! On a muddy edge of land that was once alive, a worn-out tent was set up—one that could neither keep out the cold nor stop the rain. There, in the harsh winter of Gaza, lives Suhaib’s family.

Mike Johnson refuses to condemn anti-Muslim comments by Republican lawmakers Andy Ogles said Muslims do not belong in the US and Randy Fine made a comparison of Muslims to dogs

It's not just that he refused to condemn Ogles and Fine; he endorsed the substance of their vile messages, taking issue only with their "tone," and he introduced a new line of bigotry-fueled conspiracy theory about Muslims wanting to impose sharia law. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

👀 ICE deported two U.S. citizen children with their mother to Guatemala, even though she had apparently elected to leave them with their grandmother in Florida.

By analyzing records obtained by @deportationdata.org, I found that the total number of people who have experienced ICE detention in the first 9 months of the Trump admin amounts to the population of a mid-sized city.

Stratton could have a lot of Kelly's vote if she took a position on Palestine that reflected her own party's voters. Its baffling to me that she's forfeiting it.

Deportation Is Not a Hardship That Shall Pass — It Is an Interminable Agony US immigration agencies deported my father and uncles. Some called them “felons.” I called them family.

Guess What Moderate Democratic Voters Aren’t Anymore? Moderate. Two new polls suggest that moderate Democrats, too, want higher taxes on the rich and some measure of economic populism. Moderate isn’t what it was in 1992.

Moderate Democrats with columns in newspapers are constantly saying the Democratic Party is way too liberal on "social" issues. Moderate Democratic voters in real life do not feel this way. With some polling data from @gelliottmorris.com and @dataforprogress.org. newrepublic.com/article/2074...

March 8, 2026 - Tehran at sunrise today. But the sun is hidden behind a sky filled with smoke. After a night of intensive strikes on oil facilities, thick black clouds now hang over the city, turning morning into something that feels like night.

🚨 HERE'S ICE'S GIANT WAREHOUSE/CONCENTRATION CAMP IN WESTERN MARYLAND

At Largest ICE Detention Camp, Staff Bet on Detainee Suicides, AP Reports Camp East Montana has received several 911 calls in the span of five months about immigrants trying to harm themselves.

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

It’s raining oil in Tehran. They have set fire to, bombed &polluted our city. For those who do not die in the blazes they set or in the buildings they bomb, so many will develop chronic health problems. This is the US/Israeli recipe for erasure of a people - the “Gaza playbook” x.com/fpleitgencnn...

Today we observed six shackled detainees being loaded onto the ICE Air flight at MSP. They're heading to El Paso, where conditions are so horrific, staff gamble on who the next prisoner to commit suicide will be.

The man walking from right to left at the beginning of the clip is dragging shackles.

North Tehran’s Aqdasiyeh oil depot is ablaze tonight after it was targeted by multiple US-Israeli airstrikes. Apocalyptic scenes filmed by Iranians driving on the nearby highway. Local reporters saying firefighters can’t put it out. This depot is critical energy infrastructure for Iran.

Air travel has become a lot riskier for certain racialized (regardless of citizenship status) groups and I don't think we understand the extent of it.

Jewish faculty, students, staff at UCLA petition DoJ, calling out lack of actual concern with anti-semitism. The letter is illuminating, calling out the ways actual anti-Semitism against students against genocide has not been punished or even investigated

Steep Decline in Visas Issued to Students in India India has been the engine of the post-pandemic international-enrollment rebound. But visa issuances to students in India in May through August 2025 nosedived by 61 percent compared to the same time period in 2024. from https://www.chronicle.com/article/the-drop-in-international-students-last-year-was-worse-than-we-thought

this is a remarkable chart

There is a legal provision in immigration law that someone married to a US citizen can stay in the US while there visa is pending. Immigration officials have long recognized it to allow residency during the wait time. The DHS has just stopped following this part of the law.

Everyday we are getting closer to rebuild our lives after Gaza gencide. Every dollar is part of rebuilding our lives and all your donations appreciated. I really appreciate every share

Sunny is free. We are so glad that she is with family and on the way home. Sunny and her 5 coworkers were taken to Broadview and then moved to Juneau, Wisconsin where they were finally released from ICE custody. We were lied to the entire time about her location. DHS needs to answer for this.

The United States bombed another school in Iran today.
