"The government of Brazil has revoked the visa of Darren Beattie, a far-right adviser to United States President Donald Trump who had planned to visit ex-President Jair Bolsonaro in his prison cell in Brasilia."
Jurors have reached a verdict for 9 defendants regarding the Prairieland Detention Center noise demonstration in Texas.
This case marks the first time the government has filed terrorism charges against “Antifa." Legal experts have been raising alarms over prosecutors’ theory — arguing defendants, including some who were not even at the demonstration, are part of an organized criminal “Antifa cell” and broader conspiracy.
The first charges in the Prairieland case were filed weeks after the Trump administration designated antifa as a domestic terror group last September.
The nine defendants faced a total of 65 outrageous charges that include attempted murder, aiding terrorists and weapons charges.
The verdict:
Count 1 - Riot
Autumn Hill - guilty
Zachary Evetts - guilty
Benjamin Song - guilty

I'm boosting because my gut tells me this case in TX will be used as a precedent. And not everybody has been following it.
The jury convicted a bunch of people for "supporting terrorism" under the new "antifa is terrorism" rules. They were protesting in the same place as somebody they knew who fired a gun.
Scientists often assume the main challenge in policymaking is ensuring that legislators have access to high-quality evidence.
But Capitol Hill is fast-paced, resource-constrained & shaped by competing considerations. https://sheril.substack.com/p/beyond-the-briefing-memo #science #uspol
it is actually wild that we live in a society where literal criminals are walking around free, but i have to hand over my Gov issued id and age verification docs just to download an os or use social media. it feels like common sense just doesn't exist anymore. please, some org or lawyers drag these thugs to court and stretch things out. i am tired of this bullshit.
Hanne Dugeman is a Type 1 diabetic who was denied proper medical care in ICE custody.
She lost 10lbs in 9 days.
She experienced severe infections and had to be placed in medical isolation.
She was denied her continuous glucose monitor.
She was given too much insulin & another detainee gave her crackers and saved her life.
She did nothing wrong.
She was married to a US citizen and grabbed at a regular check in
ICE nearly killed her.
It’s eugenics
No one is safe in their custody, least of all disabled people.
