The former interpreter, who reportedly risked his life to aid American troops, was detained by masked immigration officers at his asylum hearing. https://trib.al/VahMx5c

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing. Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle. Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop. (1 of 2)

This would also have been a terrific moment in history for the United States of America to have a presidential administration with at least the capacity to out think a third grader.

Serious question to anyone who said they wouldn't support "Genocide Joe" and supported trump because he said no wars even though we told you he'd involve us in a war siding with Israel: Were you just using it as an excuse to openly support a rapist with 34 felonies?

Waking up this Freedom Day to celebrate Opal Lee and her relentless activism.

A new low in Australian excuses for fossil fuel expansion…apparently our coal and gas exports can be ‘netted out’ if we export enough green energy…can someone please call the atmosphere and tell it that burning fossil fuels wont harm it as long as we generate some renewables…FFS

A sneak peek into a regent parrot nest hole - they like a deep cavity with a wide enough floor to fit the whole family 😍 here’s the kids just lounging around like they own the joint ♥️

We have the very same question.

we're sleepwalking through damage that will stretch decades into the future, presided over by a clique of scheming degenerates and an aging wannabe dictator

Brutal.

What could possibly go wrong? Netanyahu, Trump & an Ayatollah to decide fate of world.

A pretty cool wildlife corridor bridge in the mountains of #Hebei Province, #China…

Don’t feed the trolls. Especially one so desperate to be relevant/soothe his ego when he’s clearly not in the room where it happens.

this is going to be an unpopular take but this is 1000000000% bait, this is 1000000000% vance intentionally driving far right traffic to this website, this is 1000000000% implicit brigading (surely to Musk's great joy), and therefore you should 1000000000% not take the aforementioned incoming bait

The Trump Admin illegally withheld funds we passed for environmental grants that help communities hit hardest by harmful pollution.  It should’ve never happened, and this ruling helps vital orgs like Baltimore’s Green and Healthy Homes Initiative get back to work.

The new Trump phone will come with unlimited talk, texts and unintended access to US military plans, it has been revealed.

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

This was one of the most interesting developments today. Yesterday, JD told the Senate (at a lunch, if I understand the timing, that left him out of a key Iran war planning meeting) Big Ugly had to be done by August. Then Susie Wiles came in and said, July 4.

Just got an email from my kids' after-school: "I’ve been informed that ICE authorities have been seen in the neighborhood. Please stay alert, and be cautious. Regardless of where you’re from, what language you speak, or how long you’ve been here you are part of our community, and you matter to us."

Whether it’s Joe Biden sending hurricane relief funds to rebuild red states or Donald Trump sending Marines and masked federal agents to terrorize blue states, both presidents have reached beyond their political bases.

The golden snub-nosed monkeys in the mountains of #China’s #Hubei Province are pretty hilarious.
