“I’ve never done a bond or a habeas for a kid this young, ever." – U.S. District Judge Richard G. Stearns

"The boy remains trapped in a prison 500 miles away from home with an unhealed broken foot, sleeping on a concrete floor with an aluminum blanket, and crying to his mother on the phone."
NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:
ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.
Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

For those of us who study HIV/AIDS, this report in MMWR on 6/5/81 is significant. We may look back on the framing of this early reporting & criticize it, but that's all part of study & knowledge-making. Eliminating such reporting, as the GOP is doing, will be devastating.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.
It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Man I hope I’m wrong and hell is real
After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

Israeli leaders screamed their genocidal intent at the top of their lungs all the way through.

No crime in history has been so confessed to as it actually happened.

But almost all Western media outlets suppressed this.

Kudos to @scotnational.bsky.social for not being one of them.

There's a history here, too. @drsepinwall.bsky.social's brilliant Slave Revolt on Screen covers decades of attempts to create film, TV, and video game projects that would have delved into Haitian Revolution.

same guys who are "concerned!!!! about women's sports" when it means excluding and isolating trans girls from sport lol. misogyny all the way down. for so many men, women's sports is something inherently lesser and another stage for objectification and comedy with female athletes as the punchline

Turns out when @hypervisible.blacksky.app called OpenAI a "social arsonist" last week, he had no idea just how accurate that was.

a fascinating writeup on the making of a set of widely distributed IDF propaganda videos, specifically identifying assets they used. there's something incredibly unsettling about the creative ethos here. stolen assets. no actual intelligence information at all. just hubris and pure fabrication.
Others assets came from scans made by the Scottish Maritime Museum of their boat-building workshop which was downloaded (via @sketchfab.bsky.social) and reimagined by the IDF adornments for underground missile factories.

This was twenty-three months ago. Israeli forces have killed more than 16,365 kids since.
November 7, 2023 — Kids in Gaza host a press conference, in English, to beg the world for life.

“We come now to shout and invite you to protect us; we want to live, we want peace…we want to live as the other children live.”

At the time, Israel forces had killed over 4,200 kids like these.
