Centcom commander touts use of AI in fight against Iran during Operation Epic Fury AI tools have helped the U.S. military during Operation Epic Fury against Iran, according to the commander overseeing the war effort.

I find it odd that the US is touting the use of AI in Iran AND blaming a "targeting error" for bombing the shit out of a girls' school, and no one in the media seems to be asking the obvious question.

The New York Times headline: U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says

The New York Times headline: U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says

There is no longer any doubt: an American missile destroyed a school in Iran.

A massacre of children. A war crime. Those responsible must be prosecuted. Hegseth must resign. And this war must end.

Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility.

Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit.

Here's some of what we learned:

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

Prisons, Prose & Protest - #36 Rants, Musings and More

In my March edition of Prisons, Prose & Protest, I share an overview of a 1964 pamphlet by Anne Braden that remains relevant today. I recommend a podcast about a project documenting Black girlhood in photography and prose, several good recent articles and essays, and also I am raffling some prints.

Paperback edition of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America by Brian Goldstone

Today the paperback of THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out.

It's arriving in a country once again waging warβ€”a country that can spend tens of billions on bombs without blinking, while millions of Americans are one missed paycheck, one rent hike away from homelessness.

Let's take stock of where we are.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

There’s a pretty robust case to make that the Iran Hostage crisis of 1979, the revolution itself, and the policies of the Iranian government towards the US
since, was all blowback from the CIA’s decision to overthrow Mossadegh in 1953. www.cnn.com/2013/08/19/p...

A new Super PAC, "Chicago Progressive Partnership," just jumped into #IL09, opposing Kat Abughazaleh. Filings show they’re using the same vendors as AIPAC.
