Can't thank @thedigradio.bsky.social enough for teaching me about Palestine, Israel, and Zionism. This interview with Mohammed El-Kurd hit me the hardest thanks to its more personal tone, but also great are: Mouin Rabbani, Richard Seymore, and Ussama Makdisi.

More power to Mahmoud and all the others who are facing the wrath of this regime, whether in detention or fleeing from it.

Oh well then that's fine.
ICE agents acting like the most after-school-PSA stereotype of creepy child-predators imaginable, what a surprise

“Take a breath man, it’s not that serious.”
Unbelievable statement an ICE agent told a man who collapsed after being handcuffed following his immigration hearing.
The overzealous agents had the wrong man & would have kidnapped him had his attorney not insisted in reviewing the arrest warrant.
