Immigration court has always been the one place I could tell people they could feel safe from ICE enforcement... until today. I have one trusted report of FIFTY ICE officers swarming a CA immigration court. This hasn't hit media yet but advocates have been hearing reports from around the country.

“A sane country doesn’t engage in fighting against civilians, doesn’t kill babies as a hobby and doesn’t set the expulsion of a population as a goal.”

How do you read that 14,000 babies are going to die tomorrow of hunger in Gaza, and just go on with your day? How.

The level of surveillance and policing demanded by transphobia will always be more disruptive to your life than the rights and demands of trans people ourselves

Congratulations to Mohammed Mhawish for winning an Izzy Award for his reporting on Gaza. And a shout-out to the Park Center for Independent Media for recognizing the importance of his work. In October, we hosted Mhawish to talk about his work covering the Israel-Gaza war:

"Nobody wants to be in law enforcement. It’s dying," one Missouri sheriff told @themarshallproject.org. Now, he thinks, ICE contracts could be what saves it... Such a well-written story: www.themarshallproject.org/2025/05/19/i...

This entrepreneur had 165,000 customers connected to the internet, before the Israeli campaign to destroy Gaza began in October 2023. Donating to his fundraiser, will help him and his family to evacuate when the border re-opens:

What is going on, is that Israel is killing the journalists with targeted hits. There are less journalists sharing information about Gaza. Many because they are dead. Meanwhile, social media companies like Bluesky, are suppressing the information coming from regular people.

How can any one still write for the Washington Post? Telling themselves they will shut up and obey long enough to not be the next writer hacksawed up in an embassy.

Bluesky was built by the marginalized, and they're still the lifeblood of what is now the only inclusive large-scale social media community. The victims of the genocidal attacks in Gaza are a vital part of this community. @moderation.bsky.app is silencing many of these people, and it needs to stop.

When thinking about this story, of why a corrupt billionaire would target Gambia so heavily as a venue for his satellite internet company, I think about a 2019 story from @occrp.org about some of the novel innovations that were only possible in Gambia: www.occrp.org/en/project/2... like fake banks

1. SCOOP: Some sexual abuse nonprofits like RAINN cut resources for trans and immigrant survivors. Trump cut their funding anyway, in yet the latest example of how compliance only makes you a target for extortion. Subscribe to support our journalism. www.madycast.com/p/some-sexua...

Österreich und Wien gelten als Hotspots für chinesische Einflussnahme. Eine große Rolle spielt dabei die sogenannte „Einheitsfront“ der Kommunistischen Partei, zu ihr gehören offenbar einige Vereine in Österreich – mit Verbindungen nach ganz oben. ➡️ #ChinaTargets www.derstandard.de/story/300000...

$200/400? 🫂 I really appreciate how people have come together to help with this, Yousef is hungry and stressed and he can't do the fundraising right now. You are helping us a lot. gofund.me/69ae6e71 If not Yousef, please help another Gazan family. Things are as bad as they've ever been.

This is a good example of how cyberattacks that seem minor at first can have serious long-term consequences. A Ukraine-linked cyberattack on Russia’s electronic court filing system wiped out about a third of its case archive. therecord.media/russia-court...

The empire is undermining the International Criminal Court. That should tell you everything you need to know about their culpability in genocide, an international crime.

The ICC’s chief prosecutor has lost access to his email, and his bank accounts have been frozen. American staffers at the court have been told that if they travel to the U.S. they risk arrest. NGOs have stopped working with the ICC, the leader of one won’t even reply to ICC emails.

This is another policy solution that could contribute to initiatives like @johncusack.bsky.social 's campaign to unpaywall news based on public documents.

Portugal is taking online disinformation and fake news seriously. As part of a broader attempt to encourage media literacy, it’s offering 15-18 year olds a free digital subscription to a range of respected newspapers and magazines as well as online upstarts that don’t spread lies. (Monocle)

I haven't heard from Mohammed in a few days, but his family is always, always on my mind. Donate: chuffed.org/project/1163... To help them evacuate, and to help them to pay for food when they can find it. Gaza is being starved, a bag of flour costs $500.

The months-long strike at British Columbia’s LifeLabs has raised questions about foreign ownership of medical services and Canadians’ health data. That such a large part of Canada’s health infrastructure is owned by a massive foreign company is cause for concern, notes one expert.
