In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

#Russia: We strongly condemn the Moscow court's unjust conviction of four journalists, Antonina Favorskaya, Artem Krieger, Konstantin Gabov & Sergei Karelin, for alleged involvement in Navalny's "extremist" Anti-Corruption Foundation. Journalism is not a crime! Full support with the journalists.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

We’re building a #PeoplesMovement.

Today, over 3 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy.

And history shows that when just 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, peaceful resistance—transformative change is inevitable.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

—With love,
Your American allies.

The societal changes that will take place due to climate change and the emergence of powerful AI are hard to predict. That a corrupt and fascist leadership makes our predictions for the future worse is obvious.
