As someone who studied modern history and lives in Germany while being Dutch, with a family history of resistance during WW2, make no mistake. The money Trump feeds to ICE means that he is creating the US version of the German Nazi SA, also known as #BrownShirts. Today they go after supposed illegal immigrants, tomorrow they will go after anyone who doesn’t fit to whatever weird version of supremacy The Leader wants.
It’s still wild that this is being debated at the Supreme Court when we identified all of them in 2021. The IDs were accurate, and we fully explained how they were ID’d.

"Being a well-armed officer carrying out state violence is, however, not even in the top 10 most dangerous professions; roofers, loggers, and garbage collectors all have higher rates of fatal injury than regular police officers. Working as an ICE officer is even less dangerous than being an ordinary cop. Yet the entire mass deportations project relies on the lie that poor immigrants of color are a social danger — a myth bolstered by years of bipartisan policies around “criminal” migrants and anti-immigration discourse. Despite the fact that 65 percent of the 60,000-plus ICE arrests during Trump’s second term have been of immigrants with no criminal convictions, Trump’s servants like Lyons are nonetheless framing ICE targets as “dangerous criminal aliens.”
The danger of American immigration policy is faced by immigrants. As many as 80,000 people have reportedly died trying to cross into the U.S. through the Southern border in the last decade — each a victim of migration deterrence policies. Thirteen people have died in ICE custody in 2025 alone. A 75-year-old Cuban national died in an ICE detention center just last week; he had lived 60 years of his life in the U.S. When asked by a reporter on Monday about the latest death on his watch, Trump’s border czar Tom Homan shrugged. “I’m unaware of that,” he said. “I mean people die in ICE custody, people die in county jail, people die in state prisons.”
It takes the blind conviction of white nationalism, or the no-less-evil pretenses of a cynical propagandist, to claim that it is federal agents, rather than the immigrants they hunt, who are at risk."

@nanook Sorry, you're spreading half-truths. ICE agents are detaining people with no criminal record:
"71.7% held in ICE detention have no criminal conviction according to data current as of June 29, 2025. Many of those convicted committed only minor offenses, including traffic violations."

The narrative about an “antisemitism crisis” in our society has two main components:
1. Redefining “antisemitism” to mean “criticism of Israel”, and
2. Pretending not to see a connection between rising incidents of “antisemitism” as it’s been redefined and Israel perpetrating an active genocide.

Microsoft Outlook in the "cloud", the "greatest thing ever invented" according to some went down for over 21 hours on Wednesday and Thursday according to to CNBC.
I don't think I've had 21 hours of downtime total during the entire 25 years I've been managing mail. Why people are obsessed with the cloud I'll never understand. Handing over your most important data to a dishonest and self-serving corporation has never made any sense to me. Then to top it all off people get upset when Apple, Microsoft, Oracle, Google, or someone else wipes out there stuff.

LOL, I agree with the sentiment, but won't go so far as using violence to dictate what others do. Although I guess that isn't what you said and I'm just reading into your statement a bit. In other words I was thinking you were implying you'd stop Microsoft from using its OS on its computers.

If China is the threat that Phillip Inman argues (and few will differ from the board shape of his assessment) then what can our (or other Govt's) do given the already extensive penetration of our political economy by Chinese institutions and money?
While withdrawal from the clutches of the Chinese state may well be possible, the costs of distancing will be higher (by design) that politicians may be willing (able) to countenance... if so, what next?

As the infamous mushroom trial comes to a close at the same time as the coroner’s findings in the inquest into the killing of Kumanjayi Walker found that former constable Rolfe, who killed the Indigenous teen, is racist and so is police force’s systems; the media outlets who set up teams to cover the trial will now obviously shift those recourses to covering the police’s structural racism.“We’ve shown that when we want to, we can have entire teams dedicated to covering people being killed,” said one newsroom editor, “it would be a failure of our duty as news outlets if we don’t give the same attention to the people being killed in police custody.”
“Plus, the there is way more to cover here considering the amount of police brutality we are seeing not just in the Northern Territory, but nationwide. So many more deaths, and while sure none of them involve beef wellington, it would be ridiculous if that mattered in our coverage.”
