Less discussed in the new National Security Strategy than America's abdication of global leadership is the document’s frank embrace of far-right narratives on Europe, with a strong whiff of white nationalism.

As people made their way into a naturalization ceremony, ICE officials stopped 38 of the 100 applicants and told them they wouldn't be leaving with U.S. citizenship. The immigrants — who passed every step in the naturalization process — needed only to take the oath of allegiance to become citizens.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

Meiselas: The official Trump U.S. National Security Strategy document has been released. The document says a top priority of the U.S. is "cultivating resistance to Europe's current trajectory." In other words, to destroy the European Union.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.
