Rahham Borjesteh was 11.

While the world debates narratives, the regime in Iran keeps burying its youth.

But what’s harder to understand is the silence, from many who claim to care about human rights above all else.

If human rights are universal, outrage should be too.

The SAVE Act is a poll tax in order to vote. It's voter suppression, pure and simple.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

One reason Minneapolis remains in the world's eye is we have one of the most robust & independent media ecosystems remaining in the country. You all need this...and more! @mprnews.org @startribune.com @sahanjournal.bsky.social @minnesotareformer.com @minnpost.bsky.social @racketmn.com etc.

Homeland Security is trying to force tech companies to hand over data about Trump critics | TechCrunch The use of administrative subpoenas, which are not subject to judicial oversight, are used to demand a wealth of information from tech companies, including the owners of anonymous online accounts documenting ICE operations.

The Department of Homeland Security is using administrative subpoenas, a secretive tool issued without a judge's signature, to go after people lawfully reporting ICE activity or criticizing DHS policies.

This is a direct attack on our First Amendment rights and we're fighting back.

Screenshot of an X post by Rep. Ro Khanna (name truncated, 11h) saying he is calling for Congress to haul in every person who emailed Epstein about visiting his island and that he will not rest until those who committed crimes are held accountable. Below is a video thumbnail of Khanna speaking at a podium on the House floor, with a lower-third identifying him as “REP. RO KHANNA (D) CALIFORNIA.”

Illinois adopts American Academy of Pediatrics vaccine schedule, shunning federal recommendations Illinois’ adoption of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ childhood vaccine schedule is the latest example of Illinois breaking with the federal government over health care policies.

While Donald Trump and RFK Jr. push conspiracy theories over science, my administration is forging a path that puts our people first.

Illinois will adopt the American Academy of Pediatrics' vaccine schedule to keep families safe.

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Federal court shuts down Trump DOJ bid for California voter rolls Read more here.

ICYMI: In a huge win for voters, a federal court dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuit seeking access to Californians’ private voter data.

The judge warned that the government’s bid for such information “threatens the right to vote which is the cornerstone of American democracy.”

Renee Good’s last words were to ICE agent Jonathan Ross: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Then Ross shot Renee three times in the face. As she was dying, his last words to her were: “Fucking bitch.” And JD Vance thought that exchange exonerated ICE. That says it all.

We have to be clear about what the Trump Administration is doing: They are taking basic American virtues and freedoms — the ability to speak truth to power and freely — and turning them into crimes. We must see through this.

A quote from Senator Whitehouse: “One of the symptoms of Trumpism, frankly, of authoritarianism generally, is the obligation to lie. You’re not on the team, you’re not in the club, you’re not part of the movement if you’re not willing to lie for it.”
