Why would Trump remove federal reporting requirements this week mandated in a law authored by Marco Rubio in 2020 to identify domestic and international sex traffickers, money launderers and terrorists, and will Rubio comment on it?

CNBC: Do you regret voting for RFK Jr? BILL CASSIDY: If you want to tell me that somebody didn't tell me the truth, and I should've seen in the future they were not gonna tell the truth, you can say, 'Bill you should've seen into the future'

Imagine future children learning this history. Two women in Seattle in 2026 peacefully stroll passed ICE agents violently kidnapping another human being, appearing unbothered and uninterested in helping in any way. They got better things to do. Apathy is complicity. History will remember.

Two women walk by a car with several ice agents kidnapping someone, and continue their conversation completely unperturbed

Looks like someone is upset they cannot charge junk rent fees anymore. It is a wife and husband fileing it. They are still several stages from even putting it out for sigs. They want more cameras in Seattle. It is not going to go well for them. They need to run for office not whinge from the side.

We know climate change is having an impact on our country.  I recently had the opportunity to chat with Selwin Hart, Special Adviser to the Secretary-General of the UN on Climate Action, about these impacts and the opportunities that arise from these challenges.

ICE detained legal green-card holders Maryam Tahmasebi, her husband, and their high-school-aged son. They handcuffed the child, shipped them to Texas, separated the family, and held them 120+ days. Read. Share. Make them impossible to ignore: www.thenation.com/article/soci...

One Woman’s Message From the Hell of ICE Detention

My husband, son, and I have been locked up for months—despite being permanent residents with no criminal record. It is an unendurable, unending nightmare.

there's been a surge in support for the death penalty again, but people forget that we're not against the death penalty because we think evil people don't deserve to die, we're against it because the government having the power to kill someone they deem guilty can be abused by whoever is in power

This is a very worrying story. Ecuadorian fishermen are being attacked and killed, and the perpetrators seem to be either the U.S. military engaged in clandestine operations or an American mercenary company working for Bukele or another Central American country.

Far out in the Pacific Ocean, Ecuadorean fishermen have been attacked by unidentified “gringos” using drones, survivors say, spurring a mystery over whether the American military, the armed forces of another country or private military contractors were behind the strikes.

One fishing boat has been lost at sea since January, the U.N. says, with eight people still missing and presumed dead. The survivors of two other vessels said they came under attack in March by English-speaking assailants wearing matching uniforms with American flag patches, but without any clear insignia to link them to an official government force.

Some of the surviving fishermen said they had been hauled out of the water, questioned and then handed over to El Salvador’s navy before being released. The Pentagon has denied involvement, as has the U.S. Coast Guard.

Survivors have also said that a plane followed and seemingly surveilled them before the strikes.

The New York Times analyzed flight data and found that a maritime patrol plane — based out of a military base in El Salvador — flew in the direction of all three boats in the days before they were attacked. The pilots onboard spoke English with American accents, according to air traffic control communication recordings.
