ICE is now separating children from their parents in the nation’s interior and deeming them “unaccompanied.” "We’re talking about kids who have a mom, a dad, and siblings who want them to be living with them." motherjones.com/politics/202…

Incredible journalism. 60 Minutes has a convicted felon go undercover to talk to “pardon brokers,” people who will try to get you a pardon from Trump if you pay them. This administration’s corruption has created entire new job categories.

For weeks, I’ve been speaking to Autumn Hill, an activist currently serving 50 years in prison because she was at a protest where someone shot a cop. Her story, I think, is a portrait of the America Donald Trump wants — where dissent disappears for good. rollingstone.com/politics/po…

Incarcerated for Life in Trump’s War on the Left

Autumn Hill left a Prairieland ICE facility protest before it turned violent. She was still sentenced to 50 years as part of Trump's war on "antifa."

Israel demolished a Palestinian home that was about 40 years older than the state of Israel itself. Palestinians say it’s part of an accelerating campaign to wipe out Palestinian heritage and history on their land.

ANOTHER death in ICE custody, this time at the controversial Delaney Hall facility. This makes 54 deaths since Trump took office; 1 every 8 days in 2026. His mother says he was denied adequate medical care for chronic conditions, a common accusation ICE has strenuously denied.

“When prisoners rebel and demand to be treated as human beings, we are not just fighting inhumane living conditions and shitty food. We are striking a blow at the state, which maintains the situation of slavery and super-exploitation… scalawagmagazine.org/2026/02…

 “We Are Striking a Blow at the State:” The Alabama Prisoners Work Strike – Scalawag

Work strikes or "shutdowns," as we like to call them down here in Alabama, are also geared toward consciousness-raising of prisoners as an oppressed class.
