Walking Zirgan Our reporter went to Zirgan, a small city in Syria near the front lines of Erdoğan’s war on Rojava. There he became an eyewitness to brutal Turkish war crimes.

"For Erdoğan, rooting out Kurdish self-determination is part of a larger project to restore the former glory of the Ottoman Empire...through expansionist policies across the region – not only in Syria and Iraq, but in Armenia, Greece, Cyprus, & elsewhere."

U.S. Sent a Rescue Plane for Boat Strike Survivors. It Took 45 Hours to Arrive. In seas that could kill a person within an hour, it took nearly two days for a rescue plane to arrive.

How does a country fulfill the duty to render aid to the shipwrecked without the inconvenience of survivors?

DHS admits it deported more than 80 DACA recipients “Dreamers” who came to the U.S. as children are protected under U.S. law, so deportations of them are unusual.

“The Department of Homeland Security admitted to Congress this month that it deported dozens of unauthorized immigrants who are protected under U.S. law because they were brought as children to the United States, according to a letter made public Thursday.” www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

For the love of god, please learn to express disagreement on this app without talking like an absolute piece of shit who can’t understand that the person on the other end is a thinking, feeling human too

a motto for our times

I think of all the past generations who toiled and wept to give us, the present, such treasures. And how they are destroyed in the blink of an eye, by malignant fools, by the enemies of beauty, civilization, culture and life.

everyone loves smart missiles until they correctly parse the constitution and UCMJ and determine that they have a duty to obstruct an illegal war

Raytheon Executive: I know you’re skeptical about buying American again. But hear me out. The MIM-104 Patriot is the only surface to air missile system with a proven track record of success against the US Air Force.

Danish Defense Minister: Continue.

"Million-year-old" fossil skulls from China are far older—and not Denisovans The revised age may help make sense of 2-million-year-old stone tools elsewhere in China.

My latest for @arstechnica.com explores what it means that we have 1.77 million year-old Homo erectus fossils in central China, and whether Homo erectus was really the first hominin to migrate that far. 🧪

DHS Wants a Single Search Engine to Flag Faces and Fingerprints Across Agencies Homeland Security aims to combine its face and fingerprint systems into one big biometric platform—after dismantling centralized privacy reviews and key limits on face recognition.

NEW: Homeland Security officials are asking companies to help them combine all of their face and fingerprint systems together into one giant biometric platform.

Buttttttt it's unclear how workable this really is since DHS uses a wide mishmash of proprietary algos.

From what? They just passed it off to consumers

idk, feels like a teachable moment.

free them tho.

This is, as we know, the problem with "better training and oversight."

It is already a clear violation of DHS/ICE's use of force guidelines to immediately draw and point your firearm at an unarmed person. They know this, and they know the administration will defend their rule-breaking.
