Prominent Atlanta Journalist Deported After Covering Anti-Trump Protest

UPDATE: Mario Guevara was deported from the United States early on October 3, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. The Spanish-language journalist Mario Guevara may be deported to El Salvador as soon as today despite holding work authorization in the United States and never having been charged with a crime. Guevara, who founded the outlet MG News, where he received awards for his coverage on immigration, has lived in the United States for nearly 20 years. He was arrested and jailed in June for live-streaming an anti-Trump “No Kings” demonstration near Atlanta. “Mario’s case is really the tip of the spear, and today’s deportation is deeply troubling,” says lawyer Nora Benavidez. “It is because of his journalistic work that they targeted him. They really do not want what he’s doing to expose ICE.” Benavidez also responds to the attempted deportations of pro-Palestine immigrant students on U.S. college campuses. “It really mirrors the way that Mario has also been targeted because the government, very similarly, simply went after him for his speech,” she says.

Rare blue-and-green hybrid jay spotted in Texas is offspring of birds whose lineages split 7 million years ago

The hybrid bird is the product of two species whose habitat ranges began to overlap a few decades ago, potentially due to climate change, researchers said.

Composite of the newly discovered bird (center) is a hybrid of a blue jay (left) and a green jay (right), with distinguishing features of both species.

"The #US government wants to harm thousands of peasants; [the US government] is influenced by Colombian mafia politicians. Hundreds of thousands of peasants have been massacred, just as children are being massacred in Gaza. The massacres in #Colombia were carried out by politicians, senators, presidents, and ministers who were linked to and bribed by the Colombian drug mafia, allied at the same time with the extreme right in #Florida, and now allied with the Trump administration.”"

"Another issue #Petro addressed was #climate change. He said that the world has 10 years to make urgent changes before it reaches a point of no return. He proposed an energy transformation based on renewable energies to abandon fossil fuels. In this regard, he stated that #LatinAmerica and #Africa have a fundamental role to play in sustaining this change, and that the #UnitedStates and #Europe could benefit from this change for their own #survival."

“Are we taking every general & flag officer out of the Pacific right now?” one #US official said. “All of it is weird.”
The orders come as #Hegseth has unilaterally directed massive recent changes at the #Pentagon — including directing that the number of general officers be reduced by 20%, firing senior leaders without cause & a high-profile order to rebrand the #Defense Department as the Department of #War.

Top admin officials also have been preparing a new national #defense strategy that is expected to make * #homeland defense* the nation’s top concern, after several years of #China being identified as the top #NationalSecurity risk to the #UnitedStates. Some officials familiar with the order to travel said they thought that may come up.

In a sharp break with precedent, #Trump has aggressively contested sources of government #data that he thinks casts his policies in a negative light. Last month, after a weak #jobs report, he fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor #Statistics, claiming with no evidence that the data was “rigged.”

The #Agriculture Dept report, Household #FoodSecurity in the #UnitedStates, quantifies the share of households considered “#FoodInsecure” & “very low food secure,” a subset with a more severe designation of need that applied to 5.1% of households in 2023. It analyzes those categories by #state, #race & #ethnicity. Rates are much higher among #Black & #Latino households than among #white households.

So the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸 government considers her a liar (as in she will lie under oath), yet they are taking her statements seriously‽

She is already claiming that both #BillClinton & #DonaldTrump are innocent, & that she did not see anything bad happen on #Epstein Island.

Attention Canadians, French people, and anyone outside the United States: Microsoft says your country's data protection laws are void and null if the US government says so. Microsoft will turn over any and all information about you to the US government at that government's request no matter what your country's laws say. Time to stop using Microsoft if you value your own privacy and your nation's sovereignty.

And hey, fellow Americans: time for you to stop using Microsoft, too, and start putting your data overseas in the servers of non-American countries. The only way any of us are going to protect our privacy is to have as little to do with our own country as is possible, and in the digital realm, there's actually a lot we can do. My Mastodon server is not the US. My personal server and email is not in the US. My company email is not in the US. I don't use Google or Meta at all, and the only thing I "use" Microsoft for is Visual Studio, which I'm even moving away from now that I'm getting out of programming for good.

Take back your privacy by boycotting the companies willing to spy on you, either for their own profit or for the corrupt, fascist American government.
