Alabama plans to execute Anthony Boyd next week with nitrogen gas for a 1993 murder. No physical evidence linked Boyd to the crime. He was convicted solely on the testimony of a co-defendant who avoided the death penalty by testifying against him. boltsmag.org/anthony-boyd...

Alabama has just executed Anthony Boyd tonight. Lauren Gill explained so much that went wrong in his case and trial. Important to not look away.

So excited for Eliana Ramage’s debut novel–a queer, Cherokee coming of age novel about a Cherokee girl who wants to be an astronaut.

The Alaska Native village of Kipnuk was devastated last week by a typhoon. Before the storm, the Trump administration cut a $20 million grant that would have helped protect the village from coastal erosion. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

ICE has arrested at least 170 U.S. citizens. ProPublica found those citizens were dragged, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

Also the people who make such statements publicly don't actually know what anyone cares about. They only know what they care about and are projecting onto others.

There's some really egregious stuff in this report about the new #Massachusetts police academy.

A decade ago, Douglas Menjivar became a whistleblower and activist after he was raped in ICE detention. He married a US citizen, but wasn't able to get a green card. In June, agents arrested him just before his 50th birthday. 🧵 www.texasobserver.org/trump-ice-ar...

Here are some reports from Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch about how water is used as a tool of occupation in Palestine and Mekorot's role. www.amnesty.org/en/latest/ca... www.hrw.org/report/2024/...

During a forum about water held today in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, demonstrators protested the participation of the Israeli water company Mekorot. The state water utility (JCAS) and Juarez water utility (JMAS) have both promoted partnering with Israeli companies to address local water problems.

As someone who’s been a vocal supporter of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, his reported decision to keep Jessica Tisch as NYPD commissioner is a big mistake that seems like a reasonable compromise. The NYPD will understand it as weakness, not good will. Tisch cooperated with ICE to lock up Leqaa Kordia

After the FBI denied "children were zip-tied or hit with rubber bullets" in a raid in Wilder, Idaho, the FBI said no "young" children were. The updated statement came after KIVI-TV sent FBI photo reportedly showing 14-year-old U.S. citizen in zip ties.

Welcome to Antifa, Lori Lightfoot

Cuomo released a "Muslims Against Mamdani" video and one of the people just straight up accuses Mamdani of being Hindu

Jawdropping.

Mumia Abu-Jamal Speaks With the Clear Voice of a Free Man

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year. In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

Wtf is a TEST of a ceasefire?!?!??!?

BREAKING: At least 51 Palestinians have been killed across Gaza by Israeli attacks since the ceasefire came into effect less than two weeks ago, medical sources have told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/z1q2d3

Can’t recommend enough the every-other-year, two city model. By the time it is Portland’s turn to host again, we will have forgotten how much work it is, & be game for another year. Now, we hand the baton to Seattle!

Roman Surovtsev is like many others who were detained at their regularly scheduled ICE check-ins. What makes his case different is that his wife has marshalled a team of lawyers on his behalf.

Listen, over 300+ people showed up for a No Kings protest in ANGOLA, INDIANA. There is a whole part of Indiana waiting to be activated. We have never been all red. So what are we going to do with that information? I wish I could say. But I have Hope.

State troopers in riot gear just plowed into the crowd, started arresting protesters and clergy.

Once again, @govpritzker.illinois.gov's state police have attacked protesters while doing crowd control for ICE in Broadview. Pritzker positions himself as a Trump opponent, but he's doing ICE's dirty work in Broadview. It has to stop.

I’ll be speaking at The Henry Ford Theater on November 8 to present "We're Still Here: Fighting Indigenous Erasure in the Media.” Register and get tickets:

One of the most powerful things to witness if you’re in a rapid response group is how organized & quick ppl are in verifying ICE sightings & responding to drive them out. We’re out here driving & biking, even peering out our windows to keep watch.That’s the power of community & the power in numbers.

The state of Oklahoma is attacking tribal hunting & fishing rights, saying that tribal citizens who hunt & fish without a permit from the state will be charged with a crime.

The Supreme Court had declined to hear a case out of Oklahoma about whether or not cities can issue tribal citizens traffic tickets on reservation land.

Got to spend 2 magical weeks in the Adirondacks with other Native creatives. Pushing back against erasure in our respective fields can be a lonely path. Being in community was so healing. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Thank you to Blue Mountain Center for hosting.

This thread is…concerning. (I get more understated the more alarmed I am.)

Award-winning pain researcher here. This is not something that can be done. Hope this helps.

ICE agents kidnapped a US citizen in Chicago because she didn’t “look” American to them. She even had her US passport on her. 🤬

Rogers Park and surrounding neighborhoods were hit hard by immigration enforcement activity over the weekend. There's no competition here, but I want to name that the same heavy, violent, fast-moving abduction pattern has invaded the southwest side about three times a week for over a month now.

Like, sorry to folks who believe you should never criticize a politician you think does some good sometimes, but if they're in charge of the guys wearing brown shirts clubbing people with giant wooden bats and they're not putting a stop to it, they're doing something wrong.

Pritzker’s goons shutting down protests at ICE Detention Center in Broadview.

The first episode of Collateral Damage, my reported podcast with The Intercept, went up today. Hope you’ll check it out and, if you enjoy it, give it a favorable rating or review. Eternal thanks to my producers @lauraflynn.bsky.social and Andrew Stelzer for making it happen.

A federal judge dismissed the defamation lawsuit Drake brought against his own record label, Universal Music Group, for publishing and promoting Kendrick Lamar’s diss track “Not Like Us.”

I spent 4 years working on this, but it was a bad project, not least due to the location next to a big golf course w/ prominent water features that attracted large numbers of migratory birds that were incinerated flying through the solar fields. www.instituteforenergyresearch.org/big-green/ca...

Some 70 people are reported killed, injured, or missing beneath the rubble after Israeli airstrikes struck Gaza’s Al Sabra neighborhood. Families that had gathered in celebration were bombed, leading to casualties among many women and children.

The armed conflict in Sudan seems to be one of the world's most forgotten civil wars. The reigning silence surrounding this conflict plunges the population into daily turmoil.

A map of Gaza shows how Israeli forces will withdraw under the first phase of the ceasefire plan while remaining in control of nearly 60% of the besieged Strip aje.io/kekalb

This is terrifying! ICE breaks into this woman’s car in the pick-up line at West Loop Elementary school in Chicago and detains her before she can pick her kids up from school. (They were eventually let go after showing their documents) This is Trump’s America.

Picking on Black women who had to claw their way through NYC machine politics to get to their positions is just not going to work out for old white senile fascists. That's all I will say on that.
