BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

We need to mobilize simultaneous political pressure across the continent's parliaments.

Yes. Ending the excessive legal protections of US Big Tech is obviously the first step in Europeβs retaliation.
So you want to hit America hard because this is the only way to stop Trump from wrecking Europe? Do read this awesome, superbly argued and illuminating piece on 'anticircumvention' by Cory Doctorow. Europe could screw the US so hard, it's encouraging: pluralistic.net/2026/01/01/3...

Her mother called 911 for help⦠and got turned into ICE instead.
They placed her and her five year old daughter in a hotel and told them not to contact anyone.
ICE didnβt want the community fighting for them.
Mother & daughter have been deported to Honduras and the local police were complicit.
