The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous.

The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

We are publishing a running list of deaths and woundings as a result of the interior enforcement blitzkrieg across the country.
That includes deaths during apprehension and deaths in custody. This will be consistently updated.
Currently, there are 8 dead, 9 wounded, & 35 deaths in custody.

The last few years have seen the largest wave of immigration in American history. All those images we carry in our heads about people arriving at Ellis Island — we just surpassed that. Crime went down. Real wages went up. This is a fake problem. Enough is enough.

The Periodistas capture how humiliating Maria Corina Machado’s offering of the Nobel medal was: entering through a metal detector, no official photos, and declared to be without respect of Venezuelans. The despot barely has time to accept the medal.

Anyone in media that’s been serving manufactured slop to their audience over the dangers of TDS is part of the reason the nation is in crisis. Thank the universe that Wired is doing journalism.
BREAKING: Hundreds of sensitive U.S. records obtained by WIRED undercut the Trump administration’s claims portraying Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua as a unified terrorist force invading the country. Intelligence agencies spent much of 2025 unsure TdA even functioned as an organization on U.S. soil.

Hundreds of records obtained by WIRED show thin intelligence on the Venezuelan gang in the United States, describing fragmented, low-level crime rather than a coordinated terrorist threat.

This is from Mexican media. The periodistas (journalists) observe how many fronts are being opened up, “trae muchos frentes.” It’s sobering to consider how many fronts have opened in the last year, but also, in the last two weeks.

Members of Congress have a legal right and constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight where people are being detained.
