DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September:

Calls for more training for ICE and other immigration enforcement agencies means more investment in these systems and legitimizing the expansion of the role of the agent.

Latest from me for @commondreams.org A more trained mass deportation system is still a mass deportation system. A more trained agent of family separation is still an agent of family separation. A more trained armed stated terror presence in communities is still armed state terror.

Armies move on their stomachs. The private sector is making ICE possible, at a rich profit. An organized boycott could turn that business move into a liability.

U.S. Special Forces abducted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. In Cuba, people gathered in solidarity, rejecting U.S. aggression. They condemned the move as a violation of international law and human rights, an example of U.S. imperial oppression. Full: www.bellyofthebeastcuba.com/havana-respo...

Great crowd for a discussion of HOW TO END FAMILY POLICING with C. Hope Tolliver, Erica R. Meiners, Shannon Perez-Darby and Dr. jaboa lake @haymarketbooks.org 💥 www.pilsencommunitybooks.com/item/UfU8gx4...

Older people now make up 5x as much of the prison population as they did 3 decades ago. Turning prisons into “makeshift nursing homes” is one of the nation’s most wasteful, morally bankrupt experiments to date.

“My own government is forcing me to subsidize the mass murder of children. I don’t want that, & I don’t think Americans do either.” In this Q&A, Dr. Feroze Sidhwa discussed his second medical mission at the Nasser Medical Complex where the Israeli military used US-made weapons to bomb the hospital.

In this week's Make it Make Sense, tenants of the apartment building raided by ICE in Sept announce unionizing, SAIC laid off 20 20 employees, community members fight demolition of a southwest-side power plant, and more. https://bit.ly/48eR0za

The insular culture of the Border Patrol, observers say, creates a shroud of silence around allegations of wrongdoing—a cultural aversion to oversight that stands as a barrier to reform.

The struggle over history, from Wounded Knee to Thanksgiving to ICE detentions, is not a debate about the past. It is a struggle over who defines America and whose humanity matters. buff.ly/rZBKFDj

Sethy Seam, who was 16 when sentenced to life without parole, received clemency last year, and left prison in January after 27 years: “A lot of kids had hard lives. They did 25 years in prison, and now they’re a whole lot different. They need hope, too.”

1/ THREAD: This year ICE has sent a record 600 immigrant kids into federal shelters, more than in the previous four years combined. Data suggests some are being separated from their families. For one 15-year-old, it began with a cracked windshield 👇

Israel has violated the U.S.-brokered Gaza ceasefire nearly 500 times in 44 days—killing 342 civilians, including children, women, and the elderly. That's more than 11 violations every single day. The genocide never stopped. Palestinians are still being killed.

KYUK is the only public radio station in remote Alaska that regularly broadcasts in the Yugtun language, providing a crucial lifeline to the Indigenous communities in the area. After Congress slashed its budget, the station isn't sure how it'll survive.

"[W]hile the raids continued, the flow of information about them did not." "It has been more than seven weeks since ICE last published a spreadsheet of aggregate detention statistics." "Typically, these are published every two weeks." #USA #Incarceration #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

“It takes more than a broken window to break our resolve.” As public infrastructure continues to buckle under the Trump admin, radical indie bookstores provide essential civic spaces & cultural safeguards, Costa Beavin Pappas reports.

ICE has published a request for information for private-sector contractors to launch a round-the-clock social media monitoring program.

Israeli use of torture in prison rose sharply after 7 October, says freed Palestinian author

With SNAP expiring, at least one Calif community is responding not by helping people get food, but by threatening hungry people with arrest This is what we mean when we say policing is a policy choice that creates crime Here’s the math that proves it 🧵

US citizen shot from behind as he warned ICE agents children would be coming to get bus, lawyers say

A federal judge told the top Border Protection official to start wearing his body camera this week. We should FOIA that footage now. Read about this story and more in our secrecy newsletter, The Classifieds.

"The fugitives’ underground is hardly treated as a space of learning, ideas, & imagination… Vigilance cmtes opened up spaces where fugitives & other abolitionists could exchange ideas that the most absolute dreams of the abolitionist mvmt could be made thinkable." hammerandhope.org/article/unde...

The United States, in which people are happy to spend $ millions on police overtime just to make sure that (checks notes) hungry children don’t get to eat.

SCOOP: The Trump administration acknowledged they don’t know the identities of the people they’re killing; can’t meet the evidentiary burden to prosecute survivors; and consider those survivors to be “unprivileged belligerents." theintercept.com/2025/10/31/t...

This is what we mean when we say that abolition is a survivor led movement - survivors of sexual violence deserve more and better than this: prismreports.org/2025/10/09/d...

This looks like a concentration camp.

Amnesty International USA condemned the strikes as a “murder spree.” “The administration has not even named its victims, nor provided evidence of their alleged crimes. But even if they did, intentionally killing people accused of committing crimes who pose no imminent threat to life is murder.”

These ‘neighbors from the hood’ saw ICE terrorizing their community—and banded together to fight back.

Earlier this year, we documented nearly 50 incidents of immigration officers shattering car windows to make arrests — a tactic experts say was rarely used before Trump took office. ICE claims its officers use a “minimum amount of force.” You can judge for yourself.

"You don't choose the times you live in, but you do choose who you want to be, and you do choose how you want to think." – Grace Lee Boggs

Every one deserves to eat. It’s that simple.

The fine is one of several new financial penalties for immigrants created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that President Donald Trump signed in July.
