Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

In Utah, Trump’s Vision for Homelessness Begins to Take Shape

Mass trauma hurts people & communities. When we retreat into isolation to cope with our shared trauma
that’s when authoritarians move in.
They feed on disconnection and sell control as safety.

I feel this is important reading for today.

Mass Trauma and Authoritarian Capture
A crucial strategic trap that authoritarians deliberately set is to create trauma that drives people toward individualized responses precisely when collective action is most needed.

Mohammed Ibrahim is a Florida-born American citizen — a teenage boy — who just turned 16 in an Israeli prison cell.

He’s still there. Trapped. Kidnapped since February. Denied basic medical care, contact with his family, and a trial.
🚨📝 Yesterday morning, ICE agents abducted British Muslim journalist and political commentator Sami Hamdi at SFO, apparently in response to his vocal criticism of the Israeli government during his ongoing speaking tour. Take action to demand his release.

NEW: The entire staff supporting ACIP was laid off, and most working groups haven't met in months.

That means the US may not make routine vaccine recommendations for more than half of children in 2026, and it could halt new vaccines in the pipeline. My latest:

This video explains why #altgov and #altfam will not sell merch.

@altnps.bsky.social is a scam. They are not a verified Alt.

Be careful who you give your money to.

Grifters gonna grift.

The weirdest grift I've ever covered. Having kept my lips tight while preparing for this, I'm ready to be blocked by AltNPS now. I have a lot of people to thank for making this video possible, including those in #AltGov #AltFam. Specific credits and thanks in 🧵

Donald Trump falsely smeared the President of Colombia (the US’ closest ally in Latin America) of being a drug dealer; Trump has been found to have murdered several people in the Caribbean reported by Colombia.

We demand the arrest and removal of Donald Trump for murder.

Colombia officially accuses the Trump regime of murder after it exposed that Trump and Hegseth ordered the murder of unarmed civilians in order to score political points for themselves. This was civilian murder and a war crime. We demand a criminal investigation and Trump’s arrest.
Colombia: “US government officials have committed a murder and violated our sovereignty in territorial waters”

“Fisherman Alejandro Carranza had no ties to the drug trade and his daily activity was fishing.”

“The Colombian boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure.”

Democrats voted unanimously to confirm Marco Rubio.
This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements.

www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal
To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

The Guardian is reporting that since Israel and Hamas signed the ceasefire and full hostage exchange agreement, Israel has violated the ceasefire 47 times, killed 38 Palestinians, and wounded another 143 more.

Meanwhile Hamas has released all remaining hostages.

It Was Never About The Hostages.

Facts.
On Jan 6 in DC, ~2500 MAGAs violently protested. DC police reported 174 police injuries, 9 deaths, & 1500+ criminal convictions.

On Oct 18 in NYC, ~100K Americans peacefully protested. NYPD reports 0 injuries, 0 deaths, & 0 arrests.

FACT—Right wing violence remains America’s biggest terror threat.

Alabama plans to execute Anthony Boyd next week with nitrogen gas for a 1993 murder.

No physical evidence linked Boyd to the crime.

He was convicted solely on the testimony of a co-defendant who avoided the death penalty by testifying against him.

Nicest thing I can say about Sliwa is he is a total character and I’d probably watch his podcast if he had one.
Curtis Silwa was asked if he felt okay with losing and contributing to Zohran Mamdani’s victory and he responded by laying into Bill Ackman and Andrew Cuomo.
