'This place broke something in us': Kids languish in ICE detention long past 20-day court limit The Trump administration has detained more than 900 children — including a boy with severe autism — for longer than allowed under a decades-old legal settlement.

ICE detained a 9-year-old with severe autism and his mom for more than 80 days.

The boy depends on daily therapy, but at Dilley, those supports vanished.

Unable to understand why they couldn’t go home, he would cry through the night and hit himself, his mother told me.

My latest for @nbcnews.com

This is off by an order of magnitude police make up .2%, rounding down to 0. Not trying to dunk just pointing out its so absurdly disproportionate that even trying to be angry about it you reflexively end up making it seem more reasonable even than it is

Reading these accounts of just straight up physical and psychological abuse at Noma, the big like New Nordic Cuisine 3 star restaurant and it's fucking HARROWING. It reads like an account of people being tortured in a regime prison, just Hideous shit

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I think I finally realized what bothers me even about the framing of Iran in discourse. 

People frame IR’s tyranny and US/Israel’s imperialist aggression as a choice to be made. Even the “good” leftists say “we reject both choices”. But these aren’t choices, they’re realities.

Endless discourse can happen about which choice is better, how there is no other choice and so it’s silly to reject both, or how people supporting one choice deny the violence implied in the other. I have been part of this discourse myself.

But it’s all fucking stupid because we are not talking about abstract possibilities. We live in the middle of the realization of both of these “options” as a reality.

Beside Israel's northern border fence, the bursts of machine-gun fire from inside Lebanon are loud and long, as new Israeli forces push in to take strategic positions near the border. The regular rumble of air strikes echoes over the shattered remains of Shia villages, destroyed during Israel's last ground war there in 2024. A senior military official said on Thursday that Israeli ground forces were taking additional hilltops inside Lebanon - a defensive operation, he said, to better protect Israel's northern communities. But there has been a significant military build-up here. On Friday morning we passed dozens of tanks and armoured bulldozers, newly-positioned right by the border, fuelling growing speculation that a full-scale ground invasion is planned.

Hundreds of thousands of Lebanese civilians have been fleeing Israeli air strikes in Lebanon over the past few days, less than 18 months after a ceasefire ended the last conflict with Israel in November 2024. During that war, Israel fought its way house to house through many Lebanese border villages. Their crushed remains still litter the landscape. But some Hezbollah fighters have reportedly returned to these areas, and Israel is now fighting its way through the area again. Without those assaults on Hezbollah in 2024, which left a key Iranian proxy severely weakened, Israel would have found it much harder to launch its current war on Iran - or the previous one in June last year - without a much higher cost at home.

This is the language used by the BBC to describe Israel's war on Lebanon www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Cited: IDF Chief of Staff, Israeli living near the border, another Israeli, an Israeli politician and a Israeli commentator. No one else.

The Lebanese are just numbers throughout the piece.

Over a hundred years ago, women fought for rights, equality, and freedom.

What the actual fuck is going on with people sympathizing with Ahmadinejad and other so-called political opposition in Iran.

Motherfucking campism is rotting your brain.

Fuck you all, sympathizing with murderers and painting that bullshit as righteous

Headlines moved on quickly from the schoolgirls in Minab. We don’t know their names; no media profiles about their lives and aspirations. No smiling photos attached to quotes from mourning families.

How unfair that some dead are memorialised while others are relegated to ‘estimated casualties.’

We congratulate everyone on the death of Khamenei.

The bitter taste about this is the fact that these actions were carried out by the fascist governments of Israel and America.

مرگ خامنه‌ای را به همه آزادی‌خواهان تبریک می‌گوییم.

مزه تلخی در این شیرینی انجام این اعمال توسط دولت‌های فاشیست اسرائیل و آمریکا است. اگر با نوکرهای دوزاری خود مانند رضا پهلوی برای مصادره انقلاب در مبارزات مردمی مداخله و تفرقه نمی‌کردند، شاید زودتر این روز را می‌دیدیم.

ICE is still active in MN, neighbors are sheltering for safety, aid has slowed down, and rent is due in MN shortly. Can you take action with us to support our communities?

We will gift this beautiful framed cross-stitch by @fjordski.bsky.social to one person who takes action! Read on for more info.

imo any kind of meaningfully progressive christian faith would have to seriously confront, and work towards making reparations for, the history and present reality of abuse, sexual violence, misogyny, gender oppression, and genocide perpetrated at a global scale by and for christian hegemony

I didn't think it was possible to blackpill me, but then I learned that members of the faith healing cult I grew up in were literally recorded on the Nixon tapes designing the modern American health care insurance system with the intention that it would stop millions from using medicine and doctors.

Third American death linked to ice uncovered by Newsweek While the 23-year-old's death was reported in March 2025, it was not made clear that a federal agent fired the fatal shot.

“A federal agent fired shots through the driver’s side window”.

Sound familiar?

That’s exactly how Renee Nicole Good was killed.

This 23 year old lost his life and ICE’s involvement was covered up for a year.

They’re killing people and hiding the evidence.
