ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodrรญguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodrรญguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

Theyโ€™ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Senate Thwarts Bid to Curb Trumpโ€™s War Powers on Iran

53-47 vote.

Just a reminder this was yesterday. Republicans + Fetterman gave Trump the green light to continue his war.

Now he openly said Cuba is next.

The Iran/US/Israel war might have already broken the record for the highest number of AI-generated videos and images that have gone viral during a conflict.

Interestingly, I said the exact same thing right after the 12-day war in June.

Welcome to our brave new world of AI misinformation.

The Massachusetts Department of Correction has been fighting me for months, trying to withhold data about its collaboration with ICE.

can't find corroboration for that story about the admin telling troops that the war is for christian glory or whatever. maybe there's something to it, but so far it looks like it's just one guy with a newsletter reporting it. so deleted my RT.

See, the thing is we havenโ€™t beenโ€”not because past presidents were perfect angels or thrilled with Iran, but because they didnโ€™t want to close the Strait of Hormuz, evacuate American civilians from the whole region, and set the world economy on fire.

Paperback edition of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America by Brian Goldstone

Today the paperback of THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out.

It's arriving in a country once again waging warโ€”a country that can spend tens of billions on bombs without blinking, while millions of Americans are one missed paycheck, one rent hike away from homelessness.

Let's take stock of where we are.

THREAD: Misinformation in the Iran/US/Israel war - 3 March

This viral video claims to show the aftermath of a reported drone attack on the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, tonight.

But the video was posted last week to TikTok, and shows an unrelated car accident in Riyadh.
