I would bet a non-trivial amount of money that Apple will also switch off Advanced Data Protection in the US within the year, because they just handed a blueprint to every government around the world that wants to spy on their citizens.

An X account, operated by ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, and first created in 2012, has posted hateful, xenophobic, and pro-fascist content.

ICE Prosecutor in Dallas Runs White Supremacist X Account

The Observer has identified the operator of “GlomarResponder,” an overtly racist social media account, as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

My brother is in the hospital after a suicide attempt. I’m a mess. He’s severely schizophrenic amongst other mental health diagnoses and he’s been on a waitlist for 4 months to get a psychiatrist. Since he was illegally evicted and assaulted, we have seen a drastic decline in his state.

We are worried he will die waiting. This is appalling and unacceptable. Please don’t let him be a statistic.

Family Torn Apart as Mother & 2 Children Deported After Arizona Traffic Stop, 2 Other Kids Left Behind

An undocumented Venezuelan mother and two of her children were deported to Mexico earlier this month — just hours after a minor traffic stop, reports John Washington, who has covered the case for the Tucson-based independent outlet Arizona Luminaria. Arizona Public Safety troopers claimed the mother was driving under the speed limit. The mother, whom Democracy Now! is not identifying at the request of the family, described being handcuffed in front of her children, aged 6 and 9. The troopers called Border Patrol agents, who apprehended the woman and her two children and later turned them over to Mexican immigration officials in the border city of Nogales before they were put on a bus and driven about 2,000 miles away to the southern Mexican state of Tabasco. The woman suffered a “night of interrogation,” says Washington. The woman’s family was unable to reach the mother for days, until she was finally able to call her family letting them know of her whereabouts. Her two other children, who are 8 and 14 years old, are still in Tucson. We also speak with immigrant rights activist Greisa Martínez Rosas, executive director of United We Dream Action, who says Democrats share the blame for harmful immigration policies now reaching new heights under the Trump administration. “We need a true opposition power and party,” she says.

Amnesty International:

This ban is discriminatory and violates human rights. All women have the right to choose what to wear.

The sports hijab bans in France are yet another measure underpinned by Islamophobia and a patriarchal attempt to control what Muslim women wear.

Following the vote in the Senate this harmful bill will be sent to the National Assembly.
