There are really no words. This is not only heartbreaking, it should be illegal.

There should be mass protests over the dehumanization of shackling Haitian immigrants.

ICE wants them to feel humiliated.

The MSM and the public need to hold Republicans responsible.

Vote Republicans out!
So many immigrants I've interviewed break down about this. "Monsanto Maler was one of several Haitian immigrants who traveled from Springfield for a check in...after an ankle monitor was attached to him, Maler was seen collapsing to the ground and crying." www.springfieldnewssun.com/local/hundre...
Hundreds rally at site were Haitians required to check-in, get monitors after end of TPS
Hundreds of people gathered outside a federal immigration office Sunday morning to show support for Haitian immigrants from Springfield who were called to report for immigration check-ins.

Very damaging earthquakes in Venezuela. @judithgeology.bsky.social provides a preliminary summary of what may have been a M7.2 and M7.5 doublet - or a complex rupture. Scientifically, this will be hard to untangle because later P/S arrivals will overlap the wavefield from the first event.

The Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965 this week.

It was a slap in the face to the countless activists who fought for the VRA — and those who died for it.

But we cannot give up. Here's how we should respond.

SCOTUS has forsaken any shred of legitimacy and dignity it may have had left. It's time for a complete overhaul starting with the removal of the corrupt Republicans on the SCOTUS and including term limits for all justices going forward.
🚨BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court kneecapped the Voting Rights Act (VRA), the landmark civil rights law that restricted racial gerrymandering and racial discrimination in voting for more than fifty years. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
SCOTUS smothers Voting Rights Act, greenlighting racial discrimination and a rash of GOP gerrymanders
Justice Elena Kagan, in dissent, accused the majority of making changes that "eviscerate the law."

Just hours after the Roberts Court legalized stripping Black Americans of representation, Alabama moves to do just that, repeating a pattern begun in 2013 with Shelby County v Holder. Within a day of that decision, Texas & North Carolina advanced broad spectrum vote suppression bills.

There’s nothing antisemitic about this.

SNL: “There is growing confusion over whether Israel being allowed to continue bombing Lebanon was part of the ceasefire with Iran.

Ultimately, that decision comes down to the man controlling our military: Evil Benjamin Netanyahu.”

Trump’s “a whole civilization will die tonight” threat is the most deranged, monstrous statement ever made by an American president. It is genocidal insanity. He is clearly spending too much time talking to and emulating Netanyahu and Putin. Whether he follows through or not it will live in infamy.

Gas prices are soaring.

The list of things that are unaffordable for everyday Americans just keeps getting longer. We need healthcare and lower prices, not war in the Middle East. This is what happens when a president serves their ego instead of the American people.

The DHS shutdown ends the minute Republicans agree to reasonable ICE reforms that the majority of Americans agree with. But they refuse any changes because masked, poorly-trained paramilitary agents terrorizing communities is what they want.

If measles vaccination rates continue to drop just 1% annually for the next five years, the cost to the U.S. could reach $1.5 billion a year, according to a new report from the Yale School of Public Health.
Measles outbreaks are costing the U.S. millions of dollars. The true losses can't be counted.
As vaccination rates decline, the economic consequences will increase, research suggests.

Michael B. Jordan, a Sinners ensemble win, and Amy Madigan got a win for Weapons.

All things considered, a comparatively good night for horror at the SAG awards. A sign that maybe horror’s made it out of the basement in terms of how the artists in the industry feel about it. We’ll see if it holds.
