Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The govt is spending billions to keep 100 asylum seekers on Nauru, a nation of 12 000 people the size of Tullamarine airport. Reports implicating the Finks bikie gang in those deals are deeply concerning. Public servants have risked their livelihoods to speak out.
‘Dirty deals’: Nauru rorting, bikie gang allegations to be referred to NACC
Allegations of rorting, graft and bikie gangs infiltrating critical border security operations are set to be referred to the national anti-corruption watchdog.

The genocide rolls on. Israel is a terrorist nation. Murder, shooting, bombing in a ceasefire is NOT a ceasefire.
The eastern areas — Khan Younis, Deir al-Balah, and al-Shuja’iya — remain tense.
Israel intensified destruction overnight using explosive robots, especially in Bani Suhaila.
Three people were killed by Israeli fire in the past hours.
