“How many times, then, will Western journalists allow themselves to be fooled by Israeli propaganda – by military denials that later collapse under the weight of evidence?”

C of E bishops criticise UK inaction over Israel’s ‘West Bank de facto annexation’

👉 Trump claimed E. Jean Carroll said she enjoyed being raped by him. Deposition in rape trial, 10/19/22. Found guilty www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Rep. Morrison on conditions at Whipple: "She said, 'they are treating us like animals in here. The women that are in this cell with me, we slept on a cold concrete floor last night. We were begging for a blanket, & guards were cruel'... we have to resolve that every single person deserves dignity"

And in the least surprising plot twist in history… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Public outrage, sustained attention, and effort by elected officials can together make a real difference.

It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

As of Jan 31,2026, this isn’t about safety or guns. It’s about suppressing protest, press, and speech. Rights aren’t abolished; they’re selectively redistributed. Firearms remain,permission doesn’t. History marks this not as policy,but transition. They don’t ban rights; they decide who wields them.

“I’m observing!” Guns drawn, grabbed out of her car for observing. Homan has changed nothing. More: www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Newly released files show a sworn FBI tip alleging Trump threatened a girl with “disappearing” and said he could have her entire family killed. Signed under penalty of perjury. Why isn’t this front page news? #EpsteinFiles #Trump #Accountability #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/AwMacA1UYTiy...

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

The democrats once again miss the opportunity, continuing to never fail to miss the opportunities delivered to them on a silver platter. Now is the time to stop ICE, and dissolve DHS as we know it. Not to give them 2 weeks to lay low and try not to get caught killing anyone

Seeing that photo of Obama putting the Medal of Freedom on Tom Homan circulate again. It's fake. Homan did get a civil service award during the Obama administration, but it wasn't the Medal of Freedom, it wasn't a medal (it was a certificate), and Obama didn't present it to him in person.

For three years Mark Regev (who will be remembered in infamy) relentlessly pressured media not to use those numbers. Now the Israeli’s accept the Palestinians Ministry ‘ numbers were correct all along. Let us be clear , The Israeli’s have lied and lied and lied. open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/...

Human rights violations in corporate speak is disgusting. French MPs demand explanation over tech firm’s contract to help #ICE “Capgemini leveraged supply chain best practices to help ERO (Enforcement & Removal Operations) become more efficient …” #spéirghorm www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

In 2013, Jeffrey Epstein invited Elon Musk to hang out with him and Woody Allen, of all people!, in the Caribbean. Musk said ‘Yes.’ (Per DOJ files). He has so much explaining to do.

Israel has carried out some of its deadliest airstrikes on Gaza in months, killing at least 30 Palestinians, some of whom were sheltering in tent cities for displaced people. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

I spent 4 decades working in universities -in various roles from Research Assistant through to President- We took a step forward, now we have taken two steps back.

These Omni ICE trips include the removal of dozens migrants to Ghana, a country they have never been to, and the transfer deportation of legal asylum seekers back to Russia and Iran, via Omni flights to Egypt, Qatar and Kuwait. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Holy shit. Trump's secret police just arrested journalist Don Lemon, apparently after he reported on an anti-ICE protest in a church.

Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

More images of this agent “NS-919,” one of two who shot Pretti and a main instigator of the Pretti incident— from January 21. NS-919 pushed the woman that started the Pretti violence on January 24.

Maybe DOJ should focus on the law it’s violating, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, instead of speculating a crime might have been committed (despite multiple ballot recounts) in Fulton County or declining to investigate two homicides in Minneapolis?

There is no evidence for the oft repeated claim

Trump hallucinates about phone calls that never happened with foreign leaders & Cabinet laughs at him instead of invoking 25th amendment removal process.

NEW: The Israeli military today accepted the Gaza Health Ministry's estimate of 70,000+ killed. But in 2024, 62 Dems joined 207 Republicans to ban the State Dept. from citing the Ministry's stats. Now, even Israel accepts them — perhaps because they realize what is feared: the toll is even higher.

Those responsible for this—even remotely—do not deserve to be welcome in society and should walk the earth with marks of Cain.

Seems like a good video for his trial

Wonderful comment

I’m often critical of the NYT, but, to be fair, the people in their video analysis team are the best in the business. New Video Analysis Reveals Flawed and Fatal Decisions in Shooting of Pretti www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

“An administration official gave away the game to Punchbowl News, admitting that these “de-escalatory measures” are about placating Senate Democrats so they don’t seize this moment to demand restrictions on ICE as part of any government funding package.” newrepublic.com/article/2057...

I will defend you with everything I have. If you seek to harm Maine people, you will have to go through me first.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

If police being doxed is an issue if people can see their faces, why don’t the many thousands of state/local police officers wear masks? Why do they typically wear their names and badge numbers in a visible location? ICE/BP just wants to hide from misconduct accountability. bsky.app/profile/atru...

If you have to hide your face in shame, maybe it is time to stop engaging in shameful conduct.

From where does the fish rot?

This song moved me. Thank you @brucespringsteen.net This is some of your best work. I hope people will share this far and wide.

Republicans have been telling us for over a decade that we can't do anything about shooting massacres without infringing the sanctity of the Second Amendment. It was a mountain of lies told to respectable white people to keep them in line. And now Trump is threatening to knock the whole thing down.

U.S. Rep. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social visited Liam Ramos today — the 5-year-old boy who was used as bait in Minneapolis, then sent to Texas, where is now being held at Dilley Detention Center. Protests have occurred both inside and outside the facility since he arrived.

apathy is not innocence. It enables evil 🙏 @julian-can.bsky.social
