Amid the ICE invasion of Minnesota predicated on "Somali fraud," a right-wing news site aggressively deployed a similar playbook in Maine—with $$ from some of the GOP's biggest donors

Somali people are so vilified in Maine that bigots call all New Mainers from Africa "Somalis." Garbage like the Maine Wire and it's over-represented presence on Facebook in particular is directly fueling a ton of it. However, Somalis have been terribly discriminated against since the 90's.

The Maine Wire presents itself as a plucky upstart fighting for the common Mainer, but it’s fueled by powerful right-wing money men.

Decades of evidence have shown that taking out kingpins does nothing to curb cartel activity and increases violence. But the idea of military power and might sounds good and appeals to macho politicians like Trump, but also many before him.

Amid pressure from the U.S., dozens of Mexican people died in the the violence that exploded on Sunday after Mexico killed one of the most infamous drug traffickers in history.

According to Kristi Noem, ICE deported a "cannibal," a man so feral that he attempted to "eat himself" while on the deportation flight.

I am shocked — SHOCKED — to learn that this was a complete fabrication

Gaby del Valle is one of the best reporters I know and the attacks against her on here are not only shocking in their violence and bigotry but also incredibly bad-faith and utterly without merit.

It’s generally Bad to Speculate when “feds nab leftists for alarming thing” stuff drops but it is extremely common for people to get coaxed into plottin shit *by* informants paid to produce info.

UCs tend to egg people on and then deescalate away from actual crime. CIs don’t.

What was the role of an informant in the “Turtle Island Liberation Front” case in Southern California?

I teamed up with @trevoraaronson.bsky.social to make sense of the few details that have emerged thus far.

NEW: AIPAC spent millions to keep her out of Congress. But as the tide shifts for the pro-Israel lobby, Nida Allam is back - with big endorsements.

She launched her campaign today against Rep. Valerie Foushee in NC-04, who has since sworn off AIPAC $ under pressure.
