Thirty years for this in particular is a tragedy of injustice. Just abhorrently chilling.
Prosecutors in the case charged and secured conviction for eight of the nine defendants with providing material support for terrorists.
The ninth defendant, Daniel Sanchez-Estrada was not at the protest, but was convicted of corruptly concealing a document or record after prosecutors said he moved leftwing zines and other materials at the request of Rueda, his wife, after she was arrested.
Sanchez-Estrada was sentenced to 30 years in prison on Tuesday.

Texas' abortion ban is risking lives. An Austin woman was bleeding from her miscarriage, but healthcare providers didn’t remove dead fetal tissue from her body. A few weeks later, she bled until her clothes were soaked. She eventually got the care she needed — outside of Texas.

In the United States, there are religious colleges who teach that homosexuality is wrong and students who become pregnant can be run off campus. Those schools get federal funds. This is somehow protected from regulation, but secular private institutions can’t treat trans students like human beings.

On July 5, as floodwaters were starting to recede, FEMA received 3,027 calls from disaster survivors and answered 3,018, or roughly 99.7 percent, the documents show. Contractors with four call center companies answered the vast majority of the calls.

That evening, however, Ms. Noem did not renew the contracts with the four companies and hundreds of contractors were fired, according to the documents and the person briefed on the matter.

The next day, July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls and answered 846, or roughly 35.8 percent, according to the documents. And on Monday, July 7, the agency fielded 16,419 calls and answered 2,613, or around 15.9 percent, the documents sho

NYU School of Law has told 31 pro-Palestine students they must sign away their right to protest if they want to return to campus and sit exams. theintercept.com/2025/05/03/n...
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY School of Law barred 31 pro-Palestine law school students from campus facilities and demanded that they sign away their right to protest in exchange for being allowed to return. If the students — deemed “personae non grata,” or PNG — don’t renounce their right to protest on campus, they will be unable to sit for final exams.

“You may not participate in any protest activity or disruptive activity on Law School property,” says the so-called “Use of Space Agreement” sent to the students, which explicitly lays out conditions for being allowed to return to key campus buildings during the school’s “exam period.”
