It’s been 8 days and we still don’t know the names of the men who murdered Alex Pretti.

DHS must be abolished. No ICE. No palantir surveillance police state.

There’s no “fixing” a sociopathic agency designed to trample on our freedoms.

🔴 In the past 24 hours, Gaza’s Health Ministry reported 26 killed and 68 injured arriving at hospitals.

▪️Since the ceasefire on Oct. 11, 2025:
- Total killed: 523
- Total injured: 1,433
- Bodies recovered from the rubble: 715

This brings the recorded death toll from the Israeli genocide in Gaza...

Trump's lawyer says he chose to withhold "images of death" from a tranche of docs his client's name is all over, as well as other current and former members of Trump's administration.

How are millions not in the street protesting the Epstein Files?

We're paying taxes to these people.

for over 3 weeks, I've spoken to ICE watchers and organizers across the country: first right after Renee Good's killing — then 2 weeks into my reporting, Alex Pretti was killed.

ICE watchers are being detained and harassed — but they're also stopping ICE abductions and inspiring others to join them

Is it maybe time for a mass protest in DC...

...over the Epstein Files?

Hundreds of victims, thousands of lies, countless crimes, nearly all the most powerful business and political leaders in America involved in the broader narrative in some way...

Maybe worth a public event?

“What verdict will history render on those many moments of cowardice and silence from journalists who fell into line with the genocidaires? What will it mean to look in the mirror and realize that, when it mattered most, they chose career safety and complicity in genocide denial?”

I have spent the past two years debating the credibility of the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers with supporters of Israel. It turns out the Israeli military agrees with me, not them.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets.

Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party.

This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

If you’re still looking for reasons for how we ended up with Trump, you can look in part to the current white washing of one of the greatest war criminals of our time on CNN right now. The nostalgia for the “politically normal” times of Bush and Cheney is stomach turning.
