ICE is now separating children from their parents in the nation’s interior and deeming them “unaccompanied.”

"We’re talking about kids who have a mom, a dad, and siblings who want them to be living with them." https://t.co/urIIfzPDX6

During Operation Metro Surge, North Minneapolis residents evaded federal occupying forces and their drone surveillance systems via one of the Black South’s oldest strategies, what they call The Great Northern Maroonage. https://t.co/v0aS8Iwf3q

Incredible journalism.

60 Minutes has a convicted felon go undercover to talk to “pardon brokers,” people who will try to get you a pardon from Trump if you pay them.

This administration’s corruption has created entire new job categories.

For weeks, I’ve been speaking to Autumn Hill, an activist currently serving 50 years in prison because she was at a protest where someone shot a cop. Her story, I think, is a portrait of the America Donald Trump wants — where dissent disappears for good. https://t.co/CRJZiMcenW

Prisciliano Trejo Ricano, a 29-year-old diagnosed with acute leukemia, passed away in the hospital days after being released from detention.

But in the ever-growing tally of ICE detainee deaths—the number is now more than 50—his name doesn’t appear. https://t.co/AWnuq2NXH9

Israel demolished a Palestinian home that was about 40 years older than the state of Israel itself.

Palestinians say it’s part of an accelerating campaign to wipe out Palestinian heritage and history on their land.

ANOTHER death in ICE custody, this time at the controversial Delaney Hall facility. This makes 54 deaths since Trump took office; 1 every 8 days in 2026.

His mother says he was denied adequate medical care for chronic conditions, a common accusation ICE has strenuously denied.

“When prisoners rebel and demand to be treated as human beings, we are not just fighting inhumane living conditions and shitty food. We are striking a blow at the state, which maintains the situation of slavery and super-exploitation… https://t.co/CfQF0ccUT0
