One human rights observer in Maine said agents followed her home, blocked off her street, and came to her door to say they know where she lives. Her children are now staying elsewhere, to keep them safe.

With Greg Bovino being shown the door

A reminder of how he and Kristi Noem have been in lockstep in responding to Alex Pretti's murder⬇️ (and what lead up to it).
Wow. Greg Bovino and Kristi Noem literally saying the exact same thing.

"In the past, Republicans have just waited us out because they thought we would break. This would be a very dangerous moment for us to do that because of the specific moral question being put to the nation: Does the president of the United States get to murder American citizens?"
This is a critical point from Sen Chris Murphy: If Dems fold on ICE now, it could be a disaster in the midterms.

"The result will be a lot of voters who tend to turn out in midterm elections just won’t."

Here's our full exchange. It's powerful stuff:

Water privatisation *cannot be fixed* by regulation

"Privatisation and regulation have failed since 1989

The government’s promise of ‘stability for investors’ comes directly at the expense of households

Every penny of investment into the system has come from our bills"

Europe isn't doomed to inexorable decline — and in fact is doing better than most people realize, the IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva has said in an interview with POLITICO.

Seven of the 10 best-performing economies in 2025 were EU countries — so Europe should stop talking itself down, says Kristalina Georgieva.

Today marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau by Soviet troops in 1945, now recognised as Holocaust Memorial Day.

We remember the millions lost under the Nazi regime and other genocides that followed, and recommit ourselves to fighting all forms of hate.

ICE has never been about immigration enforcement.

It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

South Korea's high court struck down its abortion law 7 years ago. The gov't is still trying to pass a new law, with disagreement over gestational limits. But why do they even need a law? Canada has had no law or gestational limits since 1988 and everything's fine. Abortion is healthcare.
