Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

It was a privileged speak at the No Kings, No Cuomo rally alongside many folks I admire in the fight. And it’s a privilege to be a small piece of reimagining whistleblowers in our culture. We don’t speak up to stay silent afterwards. We fight & we will win and help change the world for our kids.

One of my many fears is that the next Democratic president will spend too much time talking about "the importance of not dwelling on the past" instead of prosecuting every single one of the people responsible for this nightmare.

When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

When López Alvarado tried to tell the officers that she was due June 17, she said they responded, “‘OK, your baby is going to be born here, but you’re from Mexico, right?’ And I told them no.” https://trib.al/ljia9Xs

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

Rep. Ruwa Romman: Our leaders have failed us. Republicans want children to starve and the poor to die, and too many of my colleagues still think that people will magically support us if we just compromise a little more.

It isn’t lost on me that the suspect in the assassination of one of the most prominent women in Minnesota politics had a target list with abortion providers and advocates. Misogyny is deadly. My heart is with the victims, their families, and everyone affected.

Boy, Pam Bondi is real fucking quiet about political assassinations after being real quick to make statements about burning Teslas.

Takes some strange guts and historical ignorance in the year of America’s 250th birthday to call yourself “Patriot Front” but show up at the #NoKings rally to support the King.

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

The first person arrested by the Marines is an Army veteran who was on his way to work at the Veterans Administration. It appears he was arrested for crossing a yellow line which the Marines did not realize was not designed to exclude federal employees from reporting to work.

New ad airing in The Bronx feat. former Congressman and middle school principal @jamaalbowmanny.bsky.social. "As Governor, Andrew Cuomo took from our kids and gave to his billionaire friends. My students never got what they deserved. That's why I'm supporting Zohran Mamdani for Mayor."

This should be illegal. $5m to one candidate who keeps violating campaign finance laws about these exact sort of funding vehicles?

Army soldiers at Trump’s speech at Fort Bragg booed when Trump mentioned CA governor Newsom and LA mayor Bass. That is a flagrant violation of military regs agains uniformed military engaging in political activity. Consequences?

They probably have murdered many people including some sold into foreign countries but they will get caught on video at some point. It’s a Shanda

NEW: The CBP confirmed to @404media.co that it has been flying Predator drones over LA amid the protests. These Predator B drones are military-caliber UAVs used for aerial reconnaissance that can be armed. It further breaks the seal on federal involvement in civilian matters. More here:

This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all." He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota. www.instagram.com/reel/DKzbcQe...

One thing that stood out really powerfully in last night's mayoral debate is that Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander both operate from the premise that New York City is a wonderful and beautiful and precious place. Andrew Cuomo does not.
