BREAKING: 170 billionaire families have now spent a record-breaking $1.7 BILLION on the midterms.

That's not counting $600 MILLION in dark money.

Billionaire political spending is up 53x since the Citizens United ruling.

This is how billionaires buy power and huge tax breaks.

Q: How do you define socialism personally?

JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

[Frank De Palma @FrankDePalma9]

Good morning, Twitter friends,

This is Mary Buser, Frank’s co-author and dear friend. I am writing with the heartbreaking news that Frank De Palma has passed away. He died of natural causes, quickly and painlessly.

As most of you know, Frank spent 22 years and 36 days in solitary confinement at Nevada’s Ely State prison. His isolation was extreme - no TV, no tablet, no books, magazines, no pen and paper — no outside agencies fighting his cause. He was consigned to stare at a wall for 22 years.

It is unbelievable that he survived, and even more unbelievable that we would subject a human being to such treatment. During the last six years, he fell into a catatonic state and became nothing more than a hand reaching for a food tray.

Miraculously, Frank came out of this state, no longer fully whole, but with his spirit fully intact. Released from prison at 62, Frank struggled, enduring homelessness, hopelessness, and failing health.

Yet somehow he hung on, with only his precious writings in his pockets. Bit by bit, he met people who took an interest in him. Frank was a very likable person. As his story got around, he was asked to testify before the Nevada Senate Judiciary Committee as they were considering reforms to solitary confinement in their prisons. His testimony was devastating.

It is there that I first met Frank, and as we got acquainted, we knew that his powerful writings were the basis for a book and together, we wrote, “Never to Surrender!” The first chapter is entirely in Frank’s words.

The last few years were good. Frank had stable housing, new friends, and a dedication to what became his life’s purpose: “abolishing solitary confinement, and having it put on the books as a crime.”

Frank was unabashed about telling anyone and everyone about solitary. There was not one Uber driver who did not learn about it, about his book, and about his story.

In one of our recent conversations, Frank expressed frustration that ending solitary wasn’t happening fast enough. He would lay awake at night thinking about the estimated 122,000 people sitting in isolation cells across the country, despite the fact that humane options are available.

As his health was failing and his mobility decreasing, Frank told me that if he had to, he would sit in a wheelchair on street corners passing out pamphlets on solitary & telling people his story. And he would have.

Thankfully, he did not wind up in a wheelchair, but his broken body finally gave out. The good part of it was that he died as a free man, in the warmth of his home, while his precious blues music was playing in the background.

Though Frank is gone, his story and his mission will continue. We will abolish solitary confinement. And now I will unabashedly ask all of you to learn more about Frank and solitary confinement. Please read his book, learn & together we can all end this torture.

Frank De Palma is the most remarkable human being I’ve ever known, and I pray that he is resting easy now, his work done. Frank and I were in the habit of checking in every evening, just to say a quick good night, and as we hung up, he never failed to say to me, “ Sleep with the angels, Mary”

And now, dear Frank, I say to you, “Sleep with the angels.”

In the old days if someone survived an execution attempt from hanging to drowning- they were often allowed to live. Because it was assumed God(s) wanted them to serve another purpose and live.

We were never meant to be executioners. Death penalty is always murder. Christa survived. Her crimes were heinous. She’s spent a long time in prison- and perhaps if she has to spend the rest of her life there her purpose will be to educate others. Put them on a better path. Maybe even prevent future murders.

We don’t know. But what I do know is that the facet of society cheering for her to be dragged out and shot to “finish the job” are the saddest portion of society and are a mirror of violence to that which they judge her for.

Trump welcomed former IOF soldier Edan Alexander to the Oval Office after his release from Gaza in a prisoner exchange, presenting him as an “American citizen.” But according to a new investigation by The Grayzone, “a source who’s been in contact with his family says he was not a US citizen at all.”

￭ Alexander was born in Tel Aviv and raised in Tenafly, New Jersey. He later moved to Israel and joined the IOF’s Golani Brigade.

￭ The Grayzone, citing a source close to Alexander’s family and immigration documents it says it independently verified, reports that Alexander was actually a US permanent resident who applied for naturalization in 2025, meaning he was never a US citizen.

￭ The Grayzone notes that “ABC News and many other media outlets referred to Alexander as ‘the last living American citizen held by Hamas,’ or as a ‘dual Israel-American citizen,’” misrepresenting his identity while campaigning for his release.

￭ Meanwhile, Palestinian-Americans and lawful permanent residents trapped in Gaza under Israeli occupation and genocide filed a lawsuit seeking emergency evacuation. A federal judge dismissed the case in January 2026, ruling that evacuation decisions were tied to executive-branch foreign policy.
