Victims in our countries seldom get profiled and humanised in Western media. This is a portrait of a life cut short. What a tragedy.
"Saleh Ahmed (55) lived in the UAE as an expat for 25 years, sending under Β£500 per month in earnings to Bangladesh for his wife and four children."
I know people are tapped out, but for anyone who still can, this incredibly sweet family needs help urgently as they try to appeal the detention of their husband/dad. We set the GFM up in a rush, so the harrowing details aren't all in there, but I can assure you that the need is urgent and real.
brianmcginnisnc Brian McGinnis' wife has NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital. He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries. Legal counsel has also been denied access. A Marine veteran. A firefighter. A father of four. And his family still cannot see him.
so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm
I do not think the police have ever raided the Quakers and been on the correct side of history

FOIA offices are being decimated across federal agencies, leaving the government unable to fulfill public records requests. Donβt let this blatant attack on transparency fly under the radar.
Tell your representatives to safeguard FOIA.

Hear directly from Aliya Rahman, who was brutally pulled from her car and assaulted by ICE on her way to a doctorβs appointment, on the importance of extending the pre-eviction notice to 60 days. We are proud to have passed this policy today and are calling on Mayor Frey to sign it immediately.
On behalf of Brianβs family, we want to express our deepest gratitude for the overwhelming outpouring of support, messages, and contributions over the last 24 hours. At this time, our priority is Brianβs wellbeing. We are taking a necessary step back from the public eye to allow him to focus fully on his recovery in private. While he looks forward to engaging with you all again very soon, his health and his family remain the current priorities. Thank you for your continued patience and for being such an incredible community. Please keep Brian and his family in your prayers. β Team McGinnis
And for the record, Iβve been running long before this, and yes even after breaking my arm standing up for what I believe in. Itβs only made me more determined. Anger is real, and so is resolve. Take care.

There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States β until now
So proud of my best friend Nate for writing this article in this really horrifying time for my trans friends in Kansas. People need to know the real impact of the culture war against trans people.
A week ago, the ACLU got DHS officials to admit on record that there would be an additional 407 agents throughout March on top of the 150 CBP agents we would normally have here.
The idea that we are down to pre-surge levels is a lie that needs to be corrected for the country. We are still occupied.
Trump Admin stopped opposing the lawsuit against Biden Admin's major new income-driven repayment plan, which rendered the lawsuit moot before a settlement could be reached. Oops! Now that plan is the law until further notice.
I just threw together a website visualizing this ICE contract data! You can browse through the companies and their contracts, and filter them by state micahflee.github.io/ice-contracts/
The U.S. military says Kuwait mistakenly shot down 3 American F-15E Strike Eagles aircraft during combat. Follow AP's live updates.
Horrifying and also as predicted. This is genocidal shit. The only hospital in Tennessee that offered this kind of care. www.them.us/story/vander...
Today should be your 38th birthday.. When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

WOW. 19 people, all who were imprisoned and mistreated in a foreign prison at the direct command of the United States, are brave enough to say βWe are innocent, and we will endure more time imprisoned to prove that.β
I can only admire the enormous courage such a move takes.
Nothing about the United States makes sense without understanding this. Shit like the Seven Mountains Mandate and Project Blitz are part of it. You must understand that something like 40% or more USians are in a death cult and they run the government.
congratulations to everyone who called it fake propaganda
