These strikes on boats in the Carribean are normalising the claim from the US Right that it is acceptable for a President to deploy American military units as extrajudicial death squads

Please join me in raising funds for medical cargo buses and trucks with electric jamming for brigades of Ukraine's Khartiia Corps. These automobiles make the difference between whether people survive or not. We can do something very specific and meaningful to help. www.help99.co/patches/timo...

oh it's time to post the Tetris story again. (short version: reporter goes to cover early e-sports, discovers that his wife is, unknowingly, the greatest Tetris player in the world) archive.boston.com/news/globe/m...

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

This how the framing is going. That a president has no power in the US constitution to do a thing is now being recast as the president having “no explicit power”. Subtle, devious, dangerous, treacherous shift. Sad and bad to see NYT adopting this spin on a headline.

😢The youngest person killed in the Russian strike on Kyiv was not even three years old, she died in the house with her mother. In the photo 24-year-old Nadiya and her two-year-old daughter Angelina. She was born under Russian shelling in October 2022 and died from Russian shelling in August 2025.

Trump 2028 isn’t a joke. Donald Trump doesn’t believe the rules apply to him, and he’ll do anything in his power to hijack a 3rd term. Wake up, America. You will not have a country if Trump rigs this election.

I have signed this petition alongside more than 200 of my colleagues demanding Israel allow the foreign press into Gaza immediately with no restrictions. I urge my colleagues to join me in signing it below: freedomtoreport.org

VIDEO: 🇫🇷 Inside Europe's last military pigeon loft The French military last relied on homing pigeons during the war in Algeria from 1954 to 1962, but the country is still home to Europe's last military pigeon loft, located near Paris

I disagree that Europe had 'no other choice' but to sign the 🇪🇺🇺🇸 🇬🇧🇺🇸 surrender deals with Trump. But even if this were true, how can Europeans be content with such a situation? This continent needs an independence revolution. Here's how to get there:

If you're wondering about the NYT's reporting of starvation in Gaza, remember, they've always been like this

Why has French President Emmanuel Macron decided to formally recognise Palestine at the UN General Assembly in September? 1/

Trump: It looks like it’s about $3.1 billion Powell: I’m not aware of that. Trump: It just came out Powell: You just added in a third building Trump: It’s a building that’s being built Powell: It was built five years ago.

They are gearing up for the Maxwell pardon in exchange for exonerating Trump play. Gotta make her sympathetic first though.

Few if any experts know more about the deliberate use of starvation as a war crime than Alex de Waal. If he says it's happening, it's so.

A Palestinian mother in Gaza: “My children have become skeletal, skin and bone. Even the slightest effort makes them dizzy. They are asking for food, and I have nothing to give. I can’t lie and say I’ll bring them something when I know I won’t be able to.” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Lol. Lmao.

Protesters in Tel Aviv took to the streets carrying flour bags and pictures of malnourished children from Gaza, calling for the end of the war on Gaza and the hunger. #protest #TelAviv #Gaza #hunger #IsraelGazawar #Israel

"Introducing 14-year-old Doe to Donald J. Trump, Epstein elbowed Trump playfully asking him, referring to Doe, 'This is a good one, right?' Trump smiled and nodded in agreement. They both chuckled and Doe felt uncomfortable, but, at the time, was too young to understand why."

Creepiest part of all this is it genuinely seems like the most intimate friendship he’s ever had

Rümeysa Öztürk describes the library in the prison where she was held for 45 days for co-authoring an op-ed

Rümeysa is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I have ever met. Many of you came to know her first and foremost as an ICE abductee, seized by a state that wanted to strip her of her humanity. I would like for you to know her in her own words, which are resoundingly human.

Trump, on Just the News, says the FBI should investigate “the Epstein hoax”.

These Dutch guys deserve your support. They bring discarded fishing and flower bulb nets to Ukraine. To protect people and lives. All volunteers doing the right things. But donations have dropped, so time we all step up.

Ossoff: Did anyone really think the sexual predator president who used to party with Jeffrey Epstein was going to release the Epstein files?

STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it has saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost up to *14M* lives thru 2030. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a series of claims about the BBC's coverage of events in Gaza on Sunday. We've looked at the claims - and the number of misrepresentations and untruths that they contained. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Russia planned operation Zeus' Lightning, largest-ever cruise missile attack on all of Ukraine for the night of June 1 to force Ukraine's hand at Istanbul the next day. Ukrainian drones destroyed many of these very bombers, already fueled, hours before they were to take-off. (via Igor Sushko)

🔥 Because I've not seen it anywhere yet... Here's a map I made of the 4 Russian air bases that Ukraine hit with drone attacks just now (red stars) Look how deeply they penetrate into Russian territory. From the Arctic Circle to mid-Siberia, nowhere in Russia is now safe. Slava Ukraini. ✊

These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to. This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented. So ICE took her into custody. The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck. "I can't breathe."

if i were a reporter i would be asking every republican politician if they agree that leonard leo is a sleazebag who hates america

I'm not kidding that any Dem who wants to run in 2028 should get out ahead of this and loudly say if El Salvador puts American citizens in Trump's gulag we'll fucking invade.

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off. We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos

the headline here is that Republicans are worried about having a special election in a seat that Trump won 60-40

This is a fantastic piece of rigorous, in-depth reporting. It will make you want to pass out with rage. But definitely read it. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

You use the officials USGovt secure channels to hide communications from bad actors. You use Signal to hide communications from the USGovt.

Just a reminder, the EU has been operating a naval mission in the seas around Yemen to keep freedom of navigation open "at great cost" since 2008. A number of non-EU countries have contributed, including Ukraine... not the US though. I guess you could call that American free-loading. eunavfor.eu
