Within the profile of the “Olympic sprinter now bedbound for 22 hours a day,” it is noted that: “it all started with back-to-back Covid and glandular fever infections,” and if this is what can happen to an Olympic athlete, just think of what can happen to you.

This mother, Patricia, was pulled over and detained by masked ICE goons after dropping off her children at school in Austin, Texas this morning. She tried to explain to goons that she had another child at home alone. They pulled her into the the vehicle and and drove off.

Not with violence, or mockery. A real leader listens, and responds. Meanwhile, at a recent rally, Trump mocked a protestor as his supporters violently attacked her.

I know of a mother who was snatched up by ICE as she was boarding a plane to go to her son’s graduation from a military academy. She was not undocumented, had no criminal record, and had been here for decades. She was expelled to a country in Africa she’d never been to before.

It’s *interesting* to read that six days ago the Trump admin told a federal judge it was working to “facilitate” Ahmed Soliman’s return to the US…then watch ICE removal planes fly right by the island where he’s being held on Tuesday, Wednesday, and probably again tonight. www.npr.org/2026/10/09/g...
The Trump administration on Friday said it has started to facilitate the return to the U.S. of an Egyptian man who was deported to Equatorial Guinea, in a rare case of the government working to reverse a third-country deportation.
A federal judge in Arizona earlier this week ordered the Department of Homeland Security to return Ahmed Soliman to the U.S. from the country in central Africa where he has no ties, and respond how it plans to do SO.
The administration said it is working
"collaboratively" with Soliman's lawyers to find and contact him, and is "beginning the process to facilitate" his return, according to Friday's filings in the case from Timothy Courchaine, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona.An FR24 map showing N700KW fly right by Malabo on the evening of October 13.An FR24 map showing N62FF fly past Malabo over mainland Africa on Wednesday evening An FR24 map showing N352BH flying over the middle of the Atlantic Ocean toward Dakar, Senegal. I have drawn a dotted line across the continent in red toward its expected destination (Kenya) to show that it is probably going to fly right past Malabo as well.

At ophthalmologist yesterday, I brought N95s. His assistant, a med student, put it on but gaslit me on my Long COVID, showing disbelief of my nerve pain. Then my doc showed up maskless. I gave him an N95. He asked if I preferred it over the cloth mask he put on! Immune deficiency is on my chart. 😭

No more handwringing about “we need to understand how to use it because clients will expect—“ No! We don’t use DDT, and won’t work with you if you insist on it. No vague “there are so many ethical questions and we have to think about them” while doing exactly nothing. Just stop using DDT.

I thought the same on my last flight, but cooling down meant dropping from almost 4000 to around 1600 ppm CO2, which is still unacceptable, bc you're sharing the same air with the same 200 ppl for hours and can't just leave
CO2 level chart during a 4 hour flight. Peaks at boarding 4000ppm and landing 2000 ppm. In between mostly 1500 to 1900 ppm
