On February 25, 2026, former subversive prisoner Tomás González, along with another prisoner, escaped from the Ex penitentiary dressed as a prison guard. Comrade Tomás was sentenced to more than 21 years in prison (16 years for shooting at police officers to avoid arrest in May 2022) and 5 years (pending for possession of a Molotov cocktail).
Given the repressive cordons that are beginning to be drawn up inside and outside the prison, the call is to not provide any information useful to the repression. No collaboration is acceptable! No photos of our comrade, no information about his background or connections given to the police!
Long live our fugitive and escaped comrades! All our strength and solidarity to those who still resist in prison.
“I cherish every moment in which I can learn alongside my comrades from the experiences that different generations have shared, based on solidarity and humility. Nothing is over, because the task continues, always contributing in concrete ways. Those who live fighting walk, forging paths wherever they may be, and as autonomous and undocumented individuals, that is our horizon.”
Tomas González Quezada

I don't know if everyone fully appreciates what has happened over the 60 days or so but the Trump Administration's plan to clean up the Western Hemisphere of Drugs and influence from US adversaries has been extremely productive. I would like to summarize in one place how successful this war on drugs and influence has recently been.

Critics of Trump’s second-term foreign policy—the usual Left and some on the neo-isolationist Right—claim it is recklessly herky jerky and guided by no consistent grand strategy.
Yet, in both the first Trump administration’s National Security Strategy paper and its second-term update, he clearly disdained ground wars abroad, nation-building, and isolationism.
The media has fixated on Trump’s tariffs and his provocative tweets. Meanwhile, he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have already done more to hinder China and its terrorist clients and proxies than any administration in memory.t.Victor Davis Hanson (X (formerly Twitter))

Yogyakarta Regional Police were visited by students and residents of Yogyakarta. The crowd are demanding the release of ALL remaining detainees from the August 2025 uprising.
Hundreds of students and residents held a protest in front of the Yogyakarta Regional Police Headquarters on Tuesday (February 24th). The demonstration was sparked by anger over the death of a 14-year-old student in Maluku, assaulted by members of the Mobile Brigade Corps (Brimob).
x.com/__PASMANTAP/status/20263…
The protesters marched from UPN to the Regional Police Headquarters without any written demands or a stage. The protest was described as spontaneous and an expression of disappointed anger.
Observations on the ground revealed that the fence on the east side of the Regional Police Headquarters had collapsed. Officers stood guard behind barbed wire to prevent the crowd from entering the police station area. Several police were injured. The people set fires at the police compound, launched fireworks and clashed with police and denounced the police-terror and the Prabowo regime.
Revenge for the prisoners, the tortured, the killed and the disappeared.

On February 25, 2026, Basque political prisoner Patxi Ruiz joined the solidarity action initiated by prisoners at the A Lama prison by observing a day of fasting in support of María José Baños Andújar, a seriously ill political prisoner of the GRAPO (Republican Action Groups). This mobilization is part of a broader movement that includes weekly hunger strikes by several other prisoners, as well as an indefinite hunger strike begun by Marcos Martín Ponce to demand the emergency hospital transfer of María José, whose health is considered critical.

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—by which each of us are robbed of the fruits of our labor every day.
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; and by refusing to work for free (which is slavery), we are asserting our power as workers and as human beings, thereby challenging the view that prisoner labor is free and exploitable.
The 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution made slavery and involuntary servitude illegal unless one has been duly convicted of a crime and ratified by Congress on December 6, 1865, which merely removed the ownership of slaves from the province of the individual citizen to that of the state, which then became the sole owner of other human beings (or slaves).
Alabama was the last state in the South to end convict leasing in 1928. Before ending convict leasing, the state hired out prisoner labor to the lumber yards, mines, and cotton mills. In 1883, about 10 percent of Alabama’s total revenue came from convict leasing. In 1898, almost 73 percent. In 1922-1926, net profits from leasing and state-run mines exceeded $3 million.
In order to continue to exploit Black prisoner labor and profit from it, Thomas E. Kilby, the governor of Alabama, ordered the construction of the Kilby prison and even named it after himself. This new prison was to be the most advanced prison in the South, with the exception of the federal prison in Atlanta, styled as an industrial prison.
It was intended to house prisoners from the lumber yards, mines, and cotton mills, which would all eventually be moved inside the prison itself. The prisoners manufactured cotton to make shirts that would then be sold on the market.
Just as slaves in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries challenged their dehumanization and exploitation via work stoppages and slowdowns, letting the crops rot in the fields, so too do prisoners in this day and time. Alabama has a long history of shutting shit down! In the 1970s, we had Inmates for Action (IFA), which organized a number of work stoppages to demand an improvement to their conditions.
We see work strikes as a weapon to be used to hit ’em where it hurts. There are many different strategies and tactics that prison rebels use, and work stoppages are just one of them. We organize around the knowledge that prison is slavery and super-exploitation of our labor power. Work stoppages are often violent due to the arena and conditions that prisoners are forced to maneuver in.
Prisons are, by nature, violent places. The guards are armed to the teeth with pepper spray, batons, sticks, knives, handcuffs, gas, and guns, and they use extreme violence as a mechanism of control. Moreover, organizers of work stoppages must navigate the different groups: gangs, shot-callers, influencers, and dope boys—and believe me, each of them has their own agendas.
Alabama has a long history of shutting shit down!
You have to get past the “pig thinking” in some of these guys who see any challenge to their captors as merely a provocation for the guards, riot squads, and CERT teams to search and confiscate their cell phones, drugs, and weapons—and to incite further harassment and beatings.
That’s how they ultimately control prisoners: through their fear of losing something. And it can get violent for those who attempt to break the strike and report to their slave jobs. These people are regarded as strike-breakers (scabs), and rightfully so.
For those out there in minimum custody, you can play a part by doing what’s in your capacity to do. You can make donations and phone calls demanding that slavery, the death penalty, and life without the possibility of parole be abolished. You can take to the streets. Or you can get creative and do what the George Jackson Brigades did in the mid-1970s in support of striking prisoners.
Check out the radical histories in the U.S. and you just may find yourself. Here in Alabama prisons, we are going on a work strike starting February 8, 2026, to protest forced labor (slavery), the Habitual Offender Act (three strikes law), Life Without the Possibility of Parole, and ultimately call for the total abolition of the system of caging people.
We are exercising our agency and our right to fight back. What’s wrong with that?

Experimenting with more Artix Linux "spins" (that the right word?)
This is a USB live boot of Moksha desktop environment. Moksha is interesting to me as it is a continuation of the Enlightenment Desktop, written in C and with BSD style software license. Very #RetroEdge.
As configured, and with the choices of included software, it definitely would not be a daily driver for me, but I can see tweaking it a bit would make it more appealing.
I'm experimenting and trying things. So far, I think I enjoy Artix Linux.

Family of UN #HumanRights investigator sues #Trump administration over sanctions for #Israel criticism
By FARNOUSH AMIRI
Updated 4:19 PM EST, February 26, 2026
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — "The family of independent U.N. investigator #FrancescaAlbanese has sued the Trump administration over U.S. #sanctions imposed on her last year for her criticism of Israel’s policies during the war with Hamas in #Gaza, saying the penalties violate the #FirstAmendment.
"In a lawsuit filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court in Washington, #Albanese’s husband and minor child outlined the serious impact those sanctions have had on the family’s life and work, including the ability to access their home in the nation’s capital.
" 'Francesca’s expression of her views about the facts as she has found them in the #Israeli-#Palestinian conflict and about the work of the #ICC is core First Amendment activity,' the lawsuit says, referring to the International Criminal Court. That tribunal has issued arrest warrants against Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu, over allegations of #WarCrimes.
" 'At its heart, this case concerns whether Defendants can sanction a person — ruining their life and the lives of their loved ones, including their citizen daughter — because Defendants disagree with their recommendations or fear their persuasiveness,' according to the filing.
"The State Department dismissed the lawsuit as 'baseless lawfare' [WHAT?!!!] and defended the U.S. sanctions against Albanese as 'legal and appropriate.' "

which says Apple would do lower end products from Intel if it happens & Nvidia has some serious issues to work out if it goes with Intel.
