They took 44 years of his life FFS

To pay him back, there’s no restitution, but rather deportation

It’s an unjust atrocity that is a microcosm of what the USA has rapidly descended to: unchecked cruelty, intimidation, brutality, fear, fascist.

This is sad. He earned an advanced degree while in prison and helped many other inmates earn degrees. He was unjustly accused & imprisoned. He is reported to be kind & compassionate. Just the kind of people 🇺🇸 needs. ICE wants to deport him. Hasn't the 🇺🇸 done enough miscarriage of justice?

The deportation order is based on Vedam’s conviction for murder—a crime he did not actually commit and for which he’s now been wholly exonerated. He entered the US at 9 months old and was a legal permanent resident before his conviction. We are so, so, so far from the light of justice.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

Pritzker: "Look, we've gotta rely on the courts to do the right thing. I realize that sometimes that's risky business, especially when some have been appointed by Donald Trump. But we've seen that even a Trump-appointed judge out in California has ruled against the administration."

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

FT says the US is helping Ukraine plan drone strikes on Russian oil refineries.

Sources say Washington has been sharing detailed intelligence — including flight paths, altitude data, and vulnerability assessments — to make Ukraine’s deep strikes more effective.

FT: American intelligence helped Ukraine attack over a dozen key Russian oil refineries since midsummer

The support allegedly allowed Ukrainian drones to bypass Russian air defenses and damage more than 1mn barrels of daily refining capacity.

Funny how Russians don’t understand the concept of reciprocity.

How would that be any different from Russia using Kinzhal or Iskander missiles?

Hypocrites!

Peskov claims that long-range missiles like the Tomahawk could carry nuclear warheads and warns that Russia can't know whether Ukraine might use a "dirty bomb." He questions how Russia should interpret such launches, saying Western experts "must understand this."
