"Colonial powers imagined a world with no borders they were bound to respect beyond those that other colonial powers could enforce ... Nations like the Tohono O'odham, whose land was sliced through by the U.S. border, had and have no power to keep out the forces of the bigger, better-armed state."

Truthout

What borders are mostly protecting is stolen wealth and stolen land and the insecurity that comes with knowing that the theft was unjust.

Matthew Petti noted this a few days ago but one of the most pernicious linguistic developments of the 21st century is the way in which "sanctions" talk has allowed American (and Western writ large) policymakers to justify the most abjectly insane collective punishment bombings as financial warfare

"The police are not here to protect us ... And when they kill us they are protected by the very institutions that claim to represent us."

Truthout

Hundreds of people demonstrated in Madison, Wisconsin, on Wednesday night following the police killing of a Black man in a popular commercial and residential area. At least four police officers tackled Ruiz to the ground. Shortly after, another officer stands up and shoots Ruiz from above 3 times.

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville has called for New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to be imprisoned in the notorious Guantanámo Bay torture camp, labelling the Muslim politician a “thug” amid a rise in racist and Islamophobic attacks against him ahead of the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attack.

My Haitian friend was just fired from his job. "They said I don't have a legal status now." This is likely happening to hundreds of thousands of people across this country today. Sick.

Al Jazeera’s outlets ended their collaboration with 25 journalists, photographers and contributors in Gaza. What’s the story behind this decision?

But it "works" like that everyday. Imagine what happens to those without a movement to support them in the fight.

The DOJ was willing to charge a labor leader with a crime, hold it over him for months, & then walk away from it once the charge couldn’t survive scrutiny. That is not how a justice system is supposed to work.

In FIFA each federation has one vote. Most are poor, for structural reasons compounded by mismanagement. A cash infusion means a small windfall for each federation, which most will happily take. Meanwhile the investors plunder until there's nothing recognizable left of the game/culture, then exit.

In my latest, I talk with @silkys13.bsky.social about the struggle against ICE. How are the government’s tactics shifting, and how must we respond? We also discuss the tremendous victory of fighting off the warehouse model for the regime’s concentration camps, and where the fight goes from here.

The Fight Against ICE Has Entered a New Phase“This is a time to build on organizing on the ground and sustain it over time,” says Silky Shahorganizingmythoughts.org

Elon Musk has shared that he got “carried away” during his time heading DOGE — with the billionaire seeming to express only mild regret for the sweeping, illegal government cuts that are slated to kill millions of people across the world over the coming years.
