Look at the child in these frames. Officers are physically restraining the child’s parent on the ground—right in front of them. Whatever the immigration dispute, children should not have to witness such force against a parent. Accountability matters.

A tide is rising. November will bring the first of many waves—people coming together to defend rights, democracy and the promise carried by generations before us. The task is bigger than this moment: see further, demand more, and resist.

Trump’s UN pitch: rename AI “Super Intelligence,” race China, and don’t “stifle” its growth. But changing the label doesn’t answer the real questions: Who controls it? Who regulates it? Who bears the risks? Power without accountability is not progress.

The video raises a serious democratic question: what happens when an executive seeks greater control over elections and extraordinary powers are discussed? It cites public remarks and reported proposals. Claims about military loyalty need separate evidence.

When a public hearing concerns over $1 billion in Israel-bond investments, citizens must be able to question how public money is used. Noura Erakat was arrested after speaking at the Palm Beach County hearing. The incident raises serious questions about dissent and public accountability.
