This matches exactly with what I have heard from people in Dilley.
The mother of 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, who is detained with the father in an ICE Texas facility, says the boy "is getting sick because the food they receive is not of good quality. He has stomach pain, he’s vomiting, he has a fever and he no longer wants to eat.”

ICE is pulling Minnesota immigrant families with legal status out of their driveways, homes and school commutes and sending them to Texas within hours — in at least two cases against a judge’s order. ...

The people who were in charge when this started cannot be the ones to end it. Practically, that's ridiculous. Of course they can't.
The alternative to Trump cannot be the likes of Newsom, Macron or the EU as it has existed
They represent the very politics that have enabled the rise of the far right and the resurgence of authoritarianism
The naivety of some of the coverage and analysis is expected but no less depressing

We ran a progressive slate for the Akademikerpension board elections 10 years ago (and won), because we wanted fossil fuel divestment. I don’t think we ever imagined we might one day help trigger a margin call on U.S. Treasuries.
Well well well. The Danes are weaponising firesales.

I'm proud to say I've got a bit of money saved away in this fund. Dumping $100 Million in US Treasuries isn't a whole lot in the grand scheme of things, but it's symbolically important and if others follow it can be the start of a very serious dynamic

You can't understand fascism in the US without reference to the country's crisis of social reproduction. Trump offered the imaginary solutions of deportations, tariffs, and conquest. And Bernie was undermined for offering real solutions like free healthcare and education.

The US is engaged in economic warfare against the EU and threatening military action to take over the territory of a member state. And Trump couldn't care less about NATO.
Yet somehow the EU's foreign affairs sec talks about threats from Russia & China and NATO as a solution? Deluded.

China and Russia must be having a field day. They are the ones who benefit from divisions among Allies.
If Greenland’s security is at risk, we can address this inside NATO.
Tariffs risk making Europe and the United States poorer and undermine our shared prosperity. (1/2)

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

🧵 Trump administration AI policy is widely described as deregulatory. This description is misleading.

My text on genocide denial in German discourse, first published with @pw-portal.bsky.social, now also appeared in English on @hahauenstein.bsky.social's Substack "Nullpunkt". I explore five types of denial as a synchronous and diachronous repertoire of rejecting the genocide claim vis-à-vis Israel.

Of course records like this will keep breaking as the steady march to 2ºC and more continues.

The abduction of a head of state and the unprovoked attack on Venezuela are extremely dangerous. This is the most naked form of imperialism, which - if unopposed and unresisted - puts every country and government at the mercy of the US, and any other powerful country that tries to copy it.
