The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

This needs to happen more often.

If an agent pulls his weapon on a civilian for no reason, they should be arrested and charged.

This is why filming ICE encounters is so important.

You’re documenting atrocities. You may help get a dangerous man off the streets.

"What did Trump think Epstein was 'stealing' these girls for? Epstein did not own a resort hotel. The answer is that he was recruiting them for his sex trafficking operation. The idea that Trump would have had any uncertainty on that point is absurd." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

This man’s family survived the Nazis only to be persecuted by ICE 70 years later.

Paul John Bojerski is being held in a camp & threatened with deportation despite being born in a German refugee camp.

He’s in a wheelchair being denied his regular medical care & medicine:
Sanford grandfather, born in refugee camp, nabbed by ICE after 70 years in U.S.
Paul Bojerski never gained official residency, but he checked in regularly with ICE for years. Then in July, at age 79, he was detained and sent to Alligator Alcatraz.

Of course the NYT erases and minimizes Alice.
She was never a teller of comfortable fictions for the elite.
The New York Times obit for Alice Wong doesn’t mention Covid or Gaza

It ignores two of her biggest causes because of political bias

Alice fought tirelessly for Covid mitigations

She fought for the people of Gaza

She rightfully reminded us that the genocide in Gaza is a disability justice issue

THAT'S A POESIOMAT! I didn't realise they had one in Belfast.

(A Czech idea originally. I feel we need some here.)

A network of hand-cranked poetry jukeboxes on city streets sounds like a detail from a surrealist poem or animation, and one of the things I love about the Czech Republic is that details like that have a way of escaping into the wild.
15) While the sights of Nusle tend to be near this square rather than on it, we do have the Poesiomat (Poetry Jukebox). There are about 50 of these in CZ (including the original one on Náměstí Míru; whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2024/03/03/p...), and you can use it to listen to 20 different poems.

“Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], ‘you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”
As ICE Street Raids Ramp Up, New Yorkers Stock Up On Whistles
Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks — a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

Erm....I remember the concentration camps were full of jewellery and personal things stolen. This is one bloody awful look for Labour. Who's advising them? An ouija board of Goebbles?
This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country

A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

“We need to bring shame back to welfare”

There’s always been shame.

There shouldn’t be, but there is. It’s a dehumanizing process to apply for benefits.

The world judges you, treats you like a failure and many make it clear they would rather you die.

We can do universal basic income right now, at the poverty level of $15k/year. No more robots required. It already makes sense to do. Replacing existing tax expenditures like the standard deduction would reduce its cost, and we'd save more than it costs in reduced spending on the impacts of poverty.

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”

SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.

That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.

For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.

While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

Trump and Pete Hegseth just killed three more people in another bombing, this time in the Pacific. The dead were said to be part of a "designated terrorist organization," which is itself utterly absurd. No evidence provided.
Trump's illegal murders in the Caribbean just got worse. An internal DOJ memo on the bombings says the victims are waging war on the US, but per NYT, it extensively cites the WH's *own claims* to this effect as evidence!

It gets even darker than that. 1/

The Epstein survivors have released a PSA.

These were children.
They were harmed.
The people who did this must be named.

A world that lets powerful men hide behind sealed documents is a world that invites the next monster in.

"There are about a thousand of us."

Yes, because the thing about girls is that they don't stay girls for very long. Which makes them disposable. And which means that men like Epstein need a huge supply.

You'll notice that there are certain demographics in society - the poor, immigrants, disabled people - who we are constantly told live on easy street with the government lavishing them with riches, and even after decades of policy designed to stop this, still have it way too good.
No, I'd say it's racists and those pandering to them.

Using Golden Ticket to describe people who have fled war and destitution to legally seek asylum. An internationally recognized legal right that the UK is treaty bound to recognize is pure cruelty and evil. It is the language of Nazis, of deportations, of camps and life unworthy of life. Evil.
