Interview: ICE Arresting U.S. Citizens, Using Banned Chokeholds

"ProPublica finds over 40 cases of immigration agents using potentially fatal chokeholds & other moves that can cut off breathing."

“These arrests are playing out around the country, & often in full view of cameras & witnesses."

"At least 170 U.S. citizens have been arrested by immigration agents."

Megalomanics can do nothing without corporate power.

Big Money was watching from at least 2016 to see how far Trump would be willing to go.

Many oligarchs switched from Dems to Trump in 2024 after making a deal (incl Vance as VP).

Heritage had spent 8 yrs finalising project24. They'd already employed 1000s of magas for the new monarchy.

Fascism can't happen without a vast support network.

Report: "The full text of Trump's 'Board of Peace' charter"

The charter doesn't mention Gaza.

It hands Trump (personally, not as president) broad powers & charges countries $1billion for permanent membership.

It implicitly criticises the UN & suggests supplanting it.

To date, only Hungary's Viktor Orbân has agreed to join the board.

Interview: Journalist tests ICE recruitment process

"They didn’t ask very many questions.”

Laura Jedeed was hired as an ICE deportation officer after a six-minute interview at a job fair in Texas.

There was no paperwork, no background check, a likely failed drug test, & she publicly shared her opposition to the Trump administration.

"Who are they hiring? They don’t know.”

"Genocide isn’t a mistake. Which is why the media can’t tell you the truth about Gaza".

The Voice of Hind Rajab, "a new film about Hind Rajab’s murder, points to a deeply sick Israeli society, driven into the darkest of places..."

"... by a racist ideology that says 'Jewish lives count, Palestinian lives don’t'."

"Mainstream media helps perpetuate this lie."

The sickening irony...

Report: The UK has forced itself to grant asylum to a Palestinian citizen of Israel who is facing Israeli persecution for calling Israel an "apartheid regime". 

He is the first Palestinian w/ an Israeli passport to gain UK asylum.

"Confirmation of his refugee status followed a legal battle in which the UK Home Office attempted to block the claim."

Interview: "Trump's Gaza 'Peace' Plan"

The UN acceptance of Trump's plan "abolished 70 years of UN history [&] gave Gaza to Donald J. Trump.”

The UN resolution* "annuls decades of precedent established under international law on Palestine — erasing its entire legal history."

~Norman Finkelstein

*Resolution 2803 (2025)

Amazing how peer solidarity - & threats of defamation - can open closed minds

Report: An Adelaide festival (in Australia) apologised to author Randa Abdel-Fattah after peer solidarity & a defamation notice related to her exclusion.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/15/australian-writers-festival-apologises-to-palestinian-author-after-boycott

The festival had excluded Abdel-Fattah for no other reason than being Palestinian after the Bondi massacre.

The festival itself collapsed when 180 writers withdrew in solidarity.
