Does anyone have any reliable sources of news about what’s going on in Gaza and Ukraine since US media has completely forgotten them?

I love this but it’s a huge ask and getting people to do it in numbers will be tough. Measuring effectiveness will be difficult. A full unsubscribe could be a last resort —- We could demonstrate power we by doing an Unsubscribe Day. And then you can resubscribe. The companies will get the point.

This reporter asks a legitimate, followup question—something the White House press corps doesn’t do all that often. Trump isn’t used to this, and you can see how it gets under his skin. Reporters need to do this more often, or at least come to the defense of those who are willing to do it.

These habeas cases have absolutely flooded court dockets all over the country — I’ve regularly added more than 100 per day to my tracker — with exasperated judges pleading for binding guidance from the appeals courts that still could be weeks/months away. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

More than 220 judges have now rejected the Trump admin’s mass detention policy
The number has skyrocketed in recent weeks and includes at least 20 judges appointed by Trump himself.

Do not be lulled into thinking everything will be ok — that this is just a minor disruption. The Empire wants us to become complacent, to tire of the protests, to accept the lies, and to believe that what they are doing will result in a stronger, healthier, wealthier country.

This May 4th, the Star Wars saga has never been more relevant. We The People are rebels fighting back against Trump’s Empire. Trump is making the rounds on the mainstream media that he so often demonizes to make himself and his actions appear normal, but none of this is normal or good.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.
