This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

Federal agents lied about why they shot a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis. Their story quickly fell apart. The attack marked the only time that federal authorities admitted wrongdoing during Operation Metro Surge.

Then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem doubled down, denouncing the incident as an act of β€œattempted murder” on law enforcement. Her agency published mugshots of all three men arrested in connection with the alleged assault, casting them as β€œviolent criminals.”

None of it was true.

Hell is Made Up of Data Centers The Underworld will literally be filled with data centers beneath us.

The Undeworld will literally be lined with data centers beneath us. And we are in the time of data colonialism.

In one hour of Insiders today where discussion was focused on war, rule-based order, and breaching international law, there was not a single mention of Israel’s genocide on Gaza.

Is this really what you call good news coverage or journalism ABC?

EXCLUSIVE: I’m the Palestinian Who Has Been in ICE Detention for Almost a Year Don't forget us on International Women's Day, writes Leqaa Kordia.

On International Women's Day, and the 1-year-anniversary of when Mahmoud Khalil was first detained, read this powerful first-hand account from Leqaa Kordia β€”Β a young Palestinian woman who is *still* in detention after being detained shortly after Mahmoud was:

I’ve really lost support for Spark and I don’t know why.

I used to send them something every week. Now it’s $200 every two weeks. Their operational costs per week are over $1,300. That money is donated by Palestinians in Gaza. I’m trying to get a fraction of that pledged as recurring donations.

This. Sometimes Palestinians who message me double send messages just incase they don’t get internet that afternoon/evening as it’s so unreliable in Gaza. One eSIM donation (which can be less than Β£30) goes a long way.

The core of imperialists politics is that some group has to be sacrificed for the majority to be ok.

And that’s just a bald faced lie. There’s more than enough for everyone to be fine.

The acceptence of this belief as a fundamental reality of the US is why I can’t connect with most perspectives

COINTELPRO: Teaching the FBI’s War on the Black Freedom Movement Through examining FBI documents, students learn the scope of the FBI’s COINTELPRO campaign to spy on, infiltrate, discredit, and disrupt all corners of the Black Freedom Movement.

Textbooks say little of this FBI role in U.S. history, but it’s essential background for today.

High school teacher Ursula Wolfe-Rocca wrote a lesson using COINTELPRO primary docs. Students are gripped by docs.

My cousin’s wife is Vietnamese and her parents survived the bombardment of Da Nang and they said when it was really bad they could barely tell the difference between night and day, and everyone got confused with times so much so they didn’t even bother looking at clocks anymore.

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.

Another boost for little Jamal, who needs our help with donations (if you can) to support his treatment for asthma and diabetes, where his symptoms are worsening due to the blockade in Gaza:

wikipedia turns gaza cities to "was"

wikipeida entries now describe some Gaza cities including Rafah, Beit Hanoun, Al Qurya, and Om Al-Nasr in past tense

The destruction is so severe that even records begin describing places in past tense. "Is" becomes "was". Not because cities vanished - but because genocide turned them to rubble

The US Soldiers Killed In This War Were Not Heroes, And Other Notes Reading by Tim Foley:

The US Soldiers Killed In This War Were Not Heroes

They did not die defending their country. They did not die fighting to protect Americans.They died advancing the geostrategic agendas of oligarchs and empire managers which benefit ordinary Americans in no way.

Don't let the new and escalating horror that Israel and the US are perpetrating overshadow Gaza.

"Illegal" DOES NOT mean "impossible."
