Bad news. Looks like Narco Rubio's thugs in Bolivia are going to arrest Nadia Beller, the lawyer who blew the lid off the US-Israeli black op to steal elections and empower the far right across Latin America -- the same Big Tech/CIA conspiracy that just fell short in Brazil.
SCOOP: Nadia Beller, the Bolivian whistleblower who survived an assassination attempt ordered by Trump associate and political operative Fernando Cerimedo, tells me authorities are seeking to arrest her as soon as Friday. According to sources within the Bolivian government and police, the case will argue that her (brave) testimony against Cerimedo’s crimes—which range from U.S. backed election interference to drug trafficking—is evidence she had prior knowledge and failed to report.
Beller, a lawyer herself, cites multiple legal grounds for immunity and says this is an obvious attempt to silence her for exposing a corruption network spanning from Washington DC to Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, and beyond. Beller’s whistleblowing prompted investigations in Argentina and Chile, including a congressional commission probing Cerimedo.
The Bolivian attorney general who arrested and charged Cerimedo with femicide for the attack on Beller was sanctioned by the U.S. and later detained by Bolivian authorities.
Beller says she fears for her life and the life of her unborn child, which Cerimedo allegedly fathered. She is calling on the international community to support her in the face of political lawfare, attempted femicide, and state repression. Please share far and wide.

If an individual therapist did this, they’d lose the right to practice and the same should apply to Sam Altman

I said this a year ago: human-made art will become a luxury good, just like local and nutritious food, natural-fiber clothing, and tech-free education for children. Basic human things are increasingly only for the rich.

“We’ve built software to track Wikipedia editors,” says the head of the ADL.
We have an investigation publishing soon about pro-Israel manipulation of Wikipedia, and he just blurts it out

The US has a long, bloody history of defending fascist leaders and dictators across Latin America, from backing military juntas to kidnapping democratically elected presidents like Maduro. They don’t care about “free elections”; they just want a puppet in power.
I am deeply concerned by reports that Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered Flávio Bolsonaro to surrender his passports following Brazil’s presidential election.
Allegations of election irregularities, including changes to voting hours, raise serious questions that demand transparency and independent scrutiny. The Brazilian people deserve confidence in their elections, the right to challenge results, and protection from political retaliation.
The United States must stand for free and fair elections, due process, and fundamental freedoms. The concerns surrounding Brazil warrant serious scrutiny, particularly given what we have witnessed in Venezuela.

Border Patrol told me that demanding to know what my rights were / ask for a lawyer was “suspicious”
They said I had NO RIGHTS as an American citizen, and no right to get access to inform legal experts about my current situation.
I wish our state didn’t turn against its own.

if you work on this kinda shit you probably should be ostracised from society and maybe imprisoned or worse ngl this is absolute traitor-to-the-human-species shit
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Whoever said the 2028 Democratic presidential candidate should run on extraditing Zuckerberg to Lula’s Brazil deserves an award.

Today in the Bronx, a group of young people confronted Ritchie Torres about his pro-ICE record, and the money he takes from AIPAC and the rest of the pro-Israel lobby.
Instead of listening, he cursed them out.
Here are the facts. Ritchie Torres has taken over $2 million from the pro-Israel lobby. He voted for the Laken Riley Act, the first law Trump signed this term. It enables ICE to lock up undocumented immigrants who have only been accused of a crime, not convicted, even for something as small as shoplifting.
Then he voted for a resolution thanking ICE for “protecting the homeland.”
But Ritchie Torres is the symptom, not the disease. For over 20 years, Democrats have voted with Republicans to fund ICE while promising to deliver on “comprehensive immigration reform” that never came.
That’s how we got the deportation machine we’re living under today.
That same machine came for Alexander Nilaj, a pillar of our community who built the Open Hand food pantry right here in the Bronx. On October 13, ICE kidnapped him and took him to Delaney Hall. Without him, the pantry has stopped giving out food. Ritchie Torres has visited Alexander at Delaney Hall, but he and the Democrats helped build the very same machine that put Alexander there.
The Bronx is sick of ICE tearing our neighborhoods apart. The Bronx doesn’t want more meaningless measures like Ritchie’s proposal to put QR codes on ICE agents. The Bronx wants ICE out of our communities for good. The Bronx deserves leaders who will fight for full rights for every immigrant, now — not as a distant promise.
The Bronx needs and deserves socialism: a system where working people hold the political and economic power, and where billions go to housing, healthcare, and childcare instead of ICE and endless wars abroad.

It's an antisemitic conspiracy theory to say that the ADL is an Israeli spy organization, but they are literally admitting they are an "intelligence" operation that is spying on Americans and punishing them if they speak out against Zionism and Israel.

Lebanon is being destroyed. My homeland is being destroyed. Our people are being genocided.
Lebanon is the second most-documented genocide in history after Gaza, yet the most denied by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights after Gaza.

I had to watch this 3 times because I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Republican Ashley Moody telling Americans they need to put their “bosses” first. Late-stage capitalism is one hell of a drug. Fuck the CEO class. We need to put the people first!

Today, the UN debate on the resolution to end the U.S. blockade on Cuba began. Already a majority of countries have spoken on the brutality of the U.S. blockade, its consequences on the Cuban people, and its illegality under international law. While the U.S. government spreads outright lies about its own policy, which blocks Cuba from making financial transactions and prevents essential medicine, food, and energy from reaching the Cuban people, it simultaneously continues to threaten the island with intervention and war.
The people of the world stand with Cuba and against the U.S. blockade - LET CUBA LIVE! #letcubalive

When this Mayor faces calls to AUDIT & address the City's failures, she'd rather waste tax dollars on outside consultants.
The City already has an INDEPENDENT AUDITOR, one beholden to the PEOPLE: The City Controller
Fund us with adequate staff to audit LADWP regularly!
An independent, non-city-affiliated audit of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power rates has been ordered by Mayor Karen Bass, her office says. ktla.com/news/local-news/ind…
