RTE Radio 1 published this phone interview with Seamus Culleton, an Irish national held by ICE in Texas since September, says he “fears for his life” in detention. Culleton lived in the U.S. for 20 years, is married to a U.S. citizen, and was detained despite holding a valid license and work permit. He said people have been killed by the staff.

🚨BREAKING: Republicans are moving quickly to pass a bill requiring voters to show proof of citizenship both to register and at the polls ahead of the 2026 midterm elections — a move that experts warn could disenfranchise millions of Americans. https://t.co/jNmv5rm61l

[Peter Twinklage @PeterTwinklage]

this is the clearest video thus far.

Donald Trump’s junta riddled the body of an unarmed, restrained ***ICU nurse*** with NINE BULLETS.

and the administration is calling him a wannabe “terrorist” bent on “massacre.”

general strike, NOW

[Max Flugrath🗳️ @MaxFlugrath]

Should be a 5-alarm fire – way bigger than part of the White House being demolished.

Trump’s team plans to use a fake “national emergency” as a cover to hijack elections.

This is **the** wake-up call. While we’re distracted by crumbling walls, they’re demolishing democracy.

@zoerosebryant I started watching because of him and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

@visiblecare I have been dealing with your support for going on 3 hours. I am locked out of my account because your eSIM failed to transfer. Neither of my phones has service. I cannot access my telephone number to get 2FA codes. You are refusing to verify my identity. HELP!

Rachel Zegler RULES and so obviously has a lifetime of incredible roles & performances ahead of her. can’t wait to see them.

They disappeared a barber who entered the US legally and committed no crime.

He was tortured in a Salvadoran prison as he cried out for his mother.

It’s the Trump Administration that is not only breaking the law by violating due process, but committing crimes against humanity.

[The New Republic @newrepublic]

The FBI is now moving to criminalize groups like Habitat for Humanity for “conspiracy to defraud the United States.”

This comes after EPA Director Lee Zeldin eliminated the EPA headquarters in D.C. and 10 other regional offices.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

There is a young man in jail today for protesting at his college. No charges. No criminal conduct. In dictatorships, they call this “a disappearance”.

I want to tell you why this case should matter to you, even if you strongly disagree with what he said or did.

[Chris Sosa @ChrisSosa]

Everyone should be shouting from the rooftops demanding the release of Mahmoud Khalil. No one is safe in a nation where you can be disappeared for protesting. It won't end with immigrants on green cards. This is a system test. Soon enough, they'll find a way to come for you too.

[GL @gldivittorio]

If they can disappear permanent residents, they can disappear citizens too, and it won’t stop at protesters. They’re using the issue of Palestine as a test run because they know democratic leadership will be slow to respond, allowing them to normalize abducting whoever they want

Master the fundamentals, then use AI to level up.

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

Trump is using campus protest as a gateway to prohibit all protest in the long run. This is a long game to dismantle First Amendment protections. I hope that's obvious to everyone.
