Homeland Security is demonstrably lying, which we know thanks to the bravery of the protesters who filmed the whole thing.

The wheels turned away.

ICE shot her in the face multiple times, in broad daylight, anyway.

Part 2/2. “Axcan Quema Tehuacán Náhuatl!” was the Caxcan battle cry during the battle of Mixtón hill in 1542. Translated meaning, “until your death or my own!” which was shouted before plunging themselves off the cliffs rather than being taken alive by the Spanish soldiers.

Part 1/2: If anyone gets a chance be sure to check out Aztec Batman! The level of creativity was outstanding, mixing a lot of indigenous history with great storytelling. This was one scene where I immediately recognized the Náhuatl phrase, “Axcan Quema Tehuacán Náhuatl!”

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

#WolffBites: Mexico's minimum wage rose 13% on 1 January 2026. Taking into account inflation, the real Mexican wage was tripled over the last 8 years. Mexico's ruling class opposed the increases as bad for Mexico. They were 100% wrong.

Yet more evidence that improving the lot of those at the very bottom of the income ladder does not necessarily produce unemployment or runaway inflation.

Been reading a lot lately (and by reading I mean listening to audiobooks while stuck in traffic every day). I take lots of notes and mark up my physical copies. I had to diagram out everything to visually see how everything is interconnected from Marx to Fanon. Is there anything I’m missing here?

20 or so minutes to the New Year and this past year has been a trip. The last few years have been a slow crawl out of my mental hellscape and somehow I ended up on Marx and Fanon. It’s time to move forward and stop ruminating on the past. No one will make things better. I need to refocus.

🚨Adolf Hitler rose from political outcast to absolute ruler by exploiting fear, division, and public despair. As democratic institutions bowed to his will, freedom vanished. His rise is more than history—it’s a warning of how tyranny takes hold in plain sight.

What's behind President Trump's executive order deeming anti-fascists to be terrorists? Investigative journalist @willpotter.bsky.social says it's a "radical escalation" in the administration's "war on dissent and the war on protest."
