Französische Beamte sollen auf US-Videoplattformen wie Teams oder Zoom verzichten

Alle Behörden des Landes sollen auf die eigene Videokonferenz-Software Visio umsteigen. Teams, Zoom oder Google Meet werden laut einem Bericht wohl bald verboten.

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.
The Legislation Upon winning a general election, a Reform government under Prime Minister Nigel Farage will: 1) Leave the ECHR 2.) Repeal the Human Rights Act and replace it with a British Bill of Rights. 3.) Pass The Illegal Migration (Mass Deportation) Bill: This Bill will: Create a legal duty to remove illegal migrants for the Home Secretary The Bill opens with a blunt obligation for the Home Secretary: "The Secretary of State shall ensure the removal from the United Kingdom of each person who does not have extant leave to remain and is not an Irish citizen or otherwise protected by regulations made under this Act." The following parts of the legislation are introduced on an emergency basis, with an in-built sunset clause after 5 years: Disapply the 1951 Refugee Convention, the UN Convention Against Torture, the Council of Europe Anti-Trafficking Convention (ECAT) Derogation is justified under the Vienna Convention doctrine of state of necessity: Britain faces a national emergency in which uncontrolled illegal migration undermines public order. These treaties will otherwise be used by activist judges to frustrate deportations, even after the repeals of the HRA and ECHR. Create Detention Power Without Hardial Singh Constraints This means illegal migrants can be detained until they are deported. Activist lawyers routinely use Hardial Singh to secure their client's bail, after which the client absconds. If you came to the UK illegally, you are ineligible for asylum. End of story All asylum claims will become inadmissible if made by a person within the Act's scope. If you came to the country illegally, you are ineligible for asylum in the UK. This strips the Home Office, the immigration tribunals and the higher courts of jurisdiction to even consider claims. A claim that cannot be considered cannot suspend removal and therefore, cannot delay a flight. Re-entering after deportation and destroying ID becomes a serious criminal offence Re-entry after deportation will be… The Operational Plan We will create an enforcement unit called UK Deportation Command, including an Illegal Migrant Identification Centre - harnessing cutting edge data fusion A Reform government will create a cutting edge enforcement data centre to relentlessly identify and detain all illegal migrants in the UK. Using powers granted by the new legislation, it will automatically share data between the Home Office, NHS, HMRC, DVLA, banks and the police. It will power bulk warrants, including mandatory biometric capture during any police encounter. Each power addresses a failure mode observed over the past decade - for example, banks and GP surgeries unaware of a customer's status, or overstayers slipping through because a warrant covered only a single property. Secure Immigration Removal Centres (SIRC) will be built rapidly to detain up to 24,000 Detention capacity for up to 24,000 will be created within 18 months. The Home Office will build Secure Immigration Removal Centres. This will be modular accommodation built in remote parts of the country. Conditions are basic but not punitive: prefabricated two-person rooms, canteen catering, on-site medical suites. Robust perimeters and internal movement controls prevent escapes. This enables detention-on-arrest: no more bail. This capacity would allow for up to 24,000 illegal migrants to be deported per month. Initial Voluntary Return Window A six-month Assisted Voluntary Return window precedes large-scale raids. Illegal migrants will be offered a financial incentive to self-deport. An app will be launched to facilitate this. The Deportation Flights The Home Office will scale up charters to 5 flights per day. To guard against last-minute aircraft unserviceability, the RAF will keep one Voyager aircraft on six-hour 'hot-spare' readiness. If a commercial charter breaks down, detainees can still be flown out that night, preserving operational integrity. The legal reset will mean activist lawyers will no longer be able preven…

Letztes Jahr schrieb ich über die Sinnlosigkeit von Erinnerungspolitik vor dem Hintergrund aktueller Katastrophen und noch schlimmerer Zukunftsaussichten. Die Reaktionen reichten von offenen Beschimpfungen bis zu wohlmeinenden Versuchen, meine Aussagen abzuschwächen. Ich nehme nichts davon zurück.

I am continually depressed by how much I have to fight to be understood, even by people who say they wish to support people like me. There is nothing more depressing than having repeatedly felt like I would be much further in my career if I were a cis man, even if I said the exact same things.

Der deutsche Neofaschismus steht kurz vor der Machtübernahme in zwei Bundesländern, die größte Supermacht der Welt ist in den Faschismus gekippt - und die Bundesregierung verkündet, am Holocaust-Gedenktag, den "Kampf gegen den Linksextremismus aufzustocken". Keine weiteren Fragen zum #NieWieder.

Das ist, warum es auch in D. mehr Widerstand gegen die aktuelle Migrationspolitik braucht:

„And so for the tyrant an obvious move is to extend the border so that is everywhere, to turn the whole country as a border area, where no rules apply.“

Timothy Snyder

snyder.substack.com/p/lies-and-l...
In a constitutional regime, such as ours, the law applies everywhere and at all times. In a republic, such as ours, it applies to everyone. For that logic of law to be undone, the aspiring tyrant looks for openings, for cracks to pry open. One of these is the border. The country stops at the border. And so the law stops at the border. And so for the tyrant an obvious move is to extend the border so that is everywhere, to turn the whole country as a border area, where no rules apply.

The Atlantic—no friend to anti-fascist movements—is reporting that ICE Truppenführer Greg Bovino is being demoted.

No politician or political party did this. It only occurred because of grassroots resistance and direct action.

ICE will keep kidnapping and murdering until we ourselves stop them. 🏴
Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role as Border Patrol “commander at large” and will return to his former job in El Centro, California, where he is expected to retire soon, according to a DHS official and two people with knowledge of the change. Bovino’s sudden demotion is the clearest sign yet that the Trump administration is reconsidering its most aggressive tactics after the killing Saturday of 37-year-old Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents under Bovino’s command.

Bipartisan is a good thing when we’re talking about something like an infrastructure bill. But more funding for ICE abuse with our tax dollars shouldn’t have a single Democrat’s name on it.

THIS IS WHAT PLAYING “BOTH SIDES” LOOKS LIKE.

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it.

Rev. Rob Schenck spent decades helping build the Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes. Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause.

Wer dieses Interview mit Innenminister Dobrindt liest, wird verstehen, dass es die AfD an der Macht gar nicht braucht, um dieses Land autoritär umzubauen. Jede einzelne Aussage ist erschreckend. Zum Beispiel was er zum Dscholani-Regime sagt:

Innenminister Dobrindt im Interview: „Wir werden zurückschlagen“
Deutschland ist das Ziel vieler hybrider Angriffe – und Bundesinnenminister Dobrindt verrät, was er dagegen tun will. Auch für die AfD und den Umgang mit Trump hat er einen Plan.

"Direct action means insisting on your right to act as if you’re already free. If someone is doing something bad, you try to stop them, in the way you’d hope anyone would act in a free and just society. If a bunch of cops intervene, you do not treat them like authorities, you act as if they were a bunch of guys in blue costumes with weapons — that is, basically, a violent street gang." . - David Graeber

Görsel, camdan bir oda içinde duran bir filin, gökkuşağı renklerine boyanmış hortumuyla gösterildiği sürreal bir sahne. Ortam tamamen beyaz, minimal ve steril bir sergi/oda estetiğinde; cam vitrin, yatak, raflar ve şeffaf objeler var. Filin gerçekçi bedeniyle yapay ve renkli hortumu arasındaki kontrast, deneysel ve tuhaf bir atmosfer yaratıyor.

Yesterday our Bay Area Local marched in solidarity with the mass strike against ICE in MPLS. 🚩🏴

Today federal agents murdered another person there.

The only option to face down escalating state terror is organization: in our workplaces, neighborhoods, schools. We have the leverage to fight back.
