Unlike, say, data analytics giant Palantir, Ring is a surveillance network that homeowners have by and large deployed themselves, powered by fear mongering against our neighbors and unfettered consumerism. www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in: - Hagerstown, MD: $102 million - Surprise, AZ: $70 million - Hamburg, PA: $87 million - Tremont, PA: $120 million - San Antonio, TX: $82 million - El Paso, TX: $123 million - Social Circle, GA: price unknown This is unprecedented.

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.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps. If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

5/ “I have already spent more than 60 days waking up eating the same repetitive meals…going to the doctor and that the only thing they tell you is to drink more water and the worst thing is that it seems like the water is what makes people sick here…” From 12-year-old Ender, detained 60+ days

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families. Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota. The cruelty is endless.

❤️

Our reporting has found that ICE sent 600 immigrant kids to detention in federal shelters in 2025. A 17-year-old was detained at a traffic stop because officers couldn’t make contact with his dad, who is deaf. Another kid ended up in a shelter after making a wrong turn:

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Our researcher @godin.bsky.social has collated our analysis so far on the fatal shooting of Renee Good on Jan 7 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, into one shareable article. Read here: www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/01...

The president of Venezuela must be held legally accountable for his crimes, which the Supreme Court forbids to happen for the president of the US, who recently pardoned the president of Honduras for similar crimes.

UN 🇺🇳 Humanitarian Coordinator for #Sudan described #El-Fasher #Darfur as “a crime scene” ““The town was not teeming with people. There were very few people that (they) were able to see," she said, describing a visit to al-Fashir by U.N. staff on Friday” www.reuters.com/world/africa...

Breaking 📰 from #El-Fasher #Darfur —> Int’l aid staff who accessed the city for 1st time since RSF takeover in Oct confirm @hrl-yalesph.bsky.social findings that few people remain. Acute concern re those still in the city www.reuters.com/world/africa...

Tis the season when we repeat "peace on earth" -- even as a massacre has been unfolding in El Fasher, Sudan, apparently claiming tens of thousands of lives. It may have slaughtered as many people in seven weeks as the Gaza war did in two years. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/24/o...

Looking for the truth about what it was like inside CECOT? Earlier this year, we spoke to the men the Trump administration deported to El Salvador. Hear about what they endured, in their own words: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8INs141xeQ

Updated with comment from @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social www.404media.co/apple-banned...

New: Apple banned an app that simply archived videos of ICE abuses. Rather than other apps that record ICE official's real-time location, Eyes Up is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." Videos from TikTok etc. Every submission manually reviewed www.404media.co/apple-banned...

🚨NEW REPORT🚨 RSF’s systematic arson attacks in Daraja Oula between 4-8 October mark the next phase of mass atrocities in El Fasher. RSF completed the berm around the city while targeting a community kitchen & market 🛰️@Planet @vantortech #KeepEyesOnSudan medicine.yale.edu/lab/khoshnoo...

i am far from an alarmist but i have been operating under this assumption since he won. it’s why i thought that he should have been asked, at some point, whether he intended to leave office on january 20, 2029.

We must refuse to allow the U.S. government and the media to normalize mass censorship in response to a manufactured moral panic about technology and social media.

Gaza | The scale of human suffering and the stripping of human dignity have long exceeded every acceptable standard, both legal and moral. This tragedy must end now. Mirjana Spoljaric, ICRC President: ms.spr.ly/63327sGyPt

A horrifying statement published today by the Editorial Committee of the Agence France-Presse (AFP) news agency. "Without immediate intervention, the last reporters in Gaza will die" Translation from French to English by @cnorristrent.bsky.social:

Our staff is on the ground supporting families. Many workers-including US citizens, were held by federal authorities at the farm for 8 hours or more. US citizen workers report only being released after they were forced to delete photos and videos of the raid from their phones. 4/

Already weakened by famine, the most vulnerable are reportedly falling and dying as they attempt to flee. They have been encircled by RSF and its aligned forces from multiple directions, and what they had systematically left set on fire 🔥 files-profile.medicine.yale.edu/documents/60...

‼️🆘 Attacks on medics, humanitarian staff, and their facilities have all been confirmed. @SAPA_ORG losses have been profound Report —> files-profile.medicine.yale.edu/documents/60...

EMERGENCY 🆘 HRL confirms the already vulnerable population living in famine conditions was encircled by RSF from multiple directions when the 11 April ground assault began. RSF is positioned to launch imminent full-scale attack on El-Fasher files-profile.medicine.yale.edu/documents/60...

🆘🚨Sudan 🇸🇩| Darfur - Zamzam, the largest IDP camp (population est 500,000 - 1.2mil) is being systematically destroyed 🔥 and inhabitants displaced by RSF over 48 hrs NEW REPORT —> t.co/RVP3M84Xaq

‼️‼️🇸🇩 Sudan: Zamzam IDP Camp is overwhelmed by RSF + aligned forces. Majority has fled. The camp is being razed 🔥to the ground. Population count was last estimated btwn 500,000-1.2 million.

This is wrongheaded cruelty. The vast majority of South Sudanese in this country (or, frankly inside South Sudan, right now) have no say in what their government does. They are here working, studying, building skills essential for their nascent country.

South Sudanese are part of congregations across the United States. I hope the voices of those congregations will be heard loud and clear at The White House.
