The U.S. government is taking people off the street and sending them to the place in the bottom picture without charges filed, no arraignments, no due process and without notifying anyone of the people’s whereabouts. El Salvador intends to never release anyone from CECOT. #HumanRights #USpol

These are dangerous times for everyone in and around the US, but many times more so for those without the protections of US citizenship. Those of us who are privileged enough to be able to speak freely and without the immediate threat of draconian consequences have a special obligation not to […]

[#uspol #deportation] This is absolutely appalling on so many levels. There's the lack of due process, the way these people are being treated, the horrorshow of a prison they were sent to... It's disgusting that this is happening. Everyone involved in making this happen deserves to be […]

Ugh. According to Politico, a Georgetown postdoc in the School of Foreign Service, an Indian national on a student visa who's married to a US citizen, has been arrested and is facing deportation. No crime charged, but apparently was recently doxed on a right wing web site and accused of holding […]

Don't surprised that Pierre Poillievre is not allowing reporters to travel with his bus. Controlling the narrative is what it's all about. The question is whether media, journalists, and voters will tske the responsibility to punish him for it. Same goes for CPC candidates not doing all […]

Trump got nothing. Putin tricked Trump into demanding that Ukraine can no longer bomb Russian oil refineries, while Putin can continue bombing civilians. Trump truly possesses a lethal level of stupidity. It is time the international community tells the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Apparently DOD went through the web pages for Medal of Honor recipients and marked those of non-white dudes as "DEI", which also broke links. The shameless racism is nakedly on display.
