No Matter How Many Liberals Black People Help to Get Elected Their 2nd Class Citizenship Doesn’t Change: NYCLU Suit says 84% of NYPD Car Searches are of Blacks/Latinos, (whites Only 3%)

From [HERE] the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), The Bronx Defenders and Milbank LLP filed a lawsuit on behalf of the NAACP New York State Conference and two Black New Yorkers against the New York City Police Department (NYPD) for systematically targeting tens of thousands of Black and Latino drivers with unconstitutional vehicle searches. Black and Latino drivers are nearly ten times and six times more likely to have their cars searched by the NYPD than white drivers in New York City. 

Following three NYCLU lawsuits in March, July, and October 2023 to obtain information on the NYPD’s vehicle stop practices, the NYCLU was able to reveal extreme racial disparities in the Department’s policing of Black and Latino drivers that were previously unknown to the public.  

According to the most recent NYCLU analysis:

– The NYPD made 28,416 traffic searches in 2024, a nearly 83 percent increase from 2023. 

– Over 84 percent of vehicle searches from 2022 until September 2025 were of Black or Latino drivers, while white drivers made up less than 4 percent of vehicle searches. 

– In all 78 precincts, Black and Latino drivers were more likely to be searched after being stopped. 

– The most searches occurred in Black and Latino neighborhoods. For example, the three precincts with the highest counts of vehicle searches are: the 75th Precinct where 83 percent of residents are Black or Latino, the 113th Precinct where 83 percent of residents are Black or Latino, and the 44th Precinct where 94 percent of residents are Black or Latino. 

– The three precincts with the highest search rates are: the 113th Precinct where 83 percent of residents are Black or Latino, the 73rd Precinct where 89 percent of residents are Black or Latino, and the 46th Precinct where 94 percent of residents are Black or Latino.

– These vehicle searches almost never result in the recovery of a weapon. 

 “Far too many Black and Latino drivers in New York City are treated like criminals when their vehicles are searched during what should be routine traffic stops, merely because of the color of their skin. The NYPD’s targeting of Black and Latino drivers with baseless vehicle searches is nothing more than stop-and-frisk on wheels, and it must come to an end,” said Daniel Lambright, Senior Counsel for Criminal Justice Litigation at the New York Civil Liberties Union. “We call upon Mayor Mamdani to end this racist and shameful NYPD practice. The NYPD cannot treat our city like a constitution-free zone where Black and Brown New Yorkers’ rights don’t matter.”   

The lawsuit alleges that the NYPD’s Vehicle Search Policy targets Black and Latino drivers for vehicle searches without reasonable suspicion or probable cause and thus violates the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments, as well as related state and local laws. The complaint details a pattern of NYPD officers stopping Black and Latino drivers for alleged minor traffic violations and then illegally searching their vehicles—purportedly for weapons and contraband—without probable cause or reasonable suspicion.  

Further, many unlawful vehicle searches are perpetrated with the involvement of notoriously violent “anti-crime” units like the Neighborhood Safety Teams—a unit that the court-appointed NYPD Stop and-Frisk Monitor has found engages in a high amount of unlawful stops. While these unlawful searches purportedly seek to recover guns, they ultimately fail. Over 96 percent of vehicle searches conducted by the NYPD between January 1, 2022 and September 30, 2025 did not turn up any weapons. 

Justin Cohen, one of the plaintiffs, is a 35-year-old Black man who was stopped by the NYPD in 2023 for allegedly speeding while driving in the Bronx late one night with his friend. Justin was frisked and the car he was driving was searched without probable cause or reasonable suspicion. Despite not finding anything illegal in the car, the officers seized the vehicle and arrested Justin. After being released from custody, over an hour after he was initially pulled over, Justin was given a speeding ticket that was ultimately dismissed. The New York City Civilian Complaint Review Board (CCRB), which is investigating the incident, concluded that the search of the vehicle was unlawful and racially biased.  

“My ordeal at the hands of the NYPD adds to a long list of horrific stories about driving while Black and racial profiling,” said plaintiff Justin Cohen. “NYPD officers pulled me over in the middle of the night, subjected my friends and me to a humiliating search, and took my car away for no other reason than the color of my skin. This traumatizing experience has left a lasting impact on me. Now, anytime I get behind the wheel and see a police car, I feel my stomach drop. With this lawsuit, I want to help stop this from happening to anyone else.”  

Christopher Oliver, another plaintiff, is a Black man who lives in New York City and who has been subjected to illegal vehicle searches by NYPD officers on at least four separate occasions. In each instance, Mr. Oliver did not consent to the search and officers did not have any legitimate basis to believe he was armed or in possession of a weapon. Officers did not issue Mr. Oliver a traffic ticket, let alone recovered any contraband, during any of these four unlawful searches. 

“It’s awful every time the NYPD pulls me over and searches my car for no reason,” said plaintiff Christopher Oliver, “and it keeps on happening. I am now scared to drive anytime because I could get pointlessly pulled over and interrogated. But this is what driving while Black looks like in this city. I’m joining this lawsuit so the NYPD stops targeting me and other drivers for the color of our skin.” 

“The New York Police Department has too often relied on race in lieu of probable cause to escalate routine traffic stops into unconstitutional vehicle searches,” said L. Joy Williams, President of NAACP New York State Conference. “Driving while Black is not a crime and Black New Yorkers should not be so routinely subjected to such traumatic treatment as if it was. This is not a new issue. We have fought back against pretextual stops and searches before and once again we find ourselves in the midst of a return to form for the NYPD. Now is the time to confront and correct this behavior that, if left unchecked, will continue to erode community trust in law enforcement.” 

“These humiliating searches almost never turn up weapons or contraband,” said Anne Venhuizen, Deputy Director of the Impact Litigation Practice at The Bronx Defenders. “The NYPD is harassing our clients based on their race, full stop.” 

From 2022 t0 2024, NYPD vehicle searches resulting from traffic stops more than doubled. The increase is related to the NYPD’s focus on low-level quality-of-life offenses, which has also contributed to a recent surge in NYPD misconduct complaints. There is no evidence that traffic stops advance public safety, and advocates nationwide have called for non-police alternatives to traffic enforcement.  In 2020, Virginia passed legislation that limits traffic stops for minor violations. A similar bill has been introduced this year in New York, where 70 percent of voters support legislation to limit or end police enforcement of certain minor traffic violations to reduce unnecessary police interactions with drivers. 

NYCLU Counsel on the case includes attorneys Daniel Lambright, Bobby Hodgson, Thomas Munson, Elizabeth Gyori, Ify Chikezie, Molly Biklen, paralegal Zawareen Zakaria, Senior Legal Investigator Soleiman Moustafa, and Senior Data and Research Strategist Melissa Avilez-Lopez. Co-Counsel from Milbank includes Katherine Kelly Fell, Nicole Valente, Ariadne Ellsworth and Camille Cummings.

An Unwanted, UnDeclinable “Public Service:” Ohio Cops [allegedly] Get Their Power from the People but the Legislature Never Authorized Cops to Use Drones to Surveil People

From [HERE] Law enforcement agencies across southeast Ohio are increasingly turning to drones—not just for search and rescue, but “to deter crime, pursue suspects and gather aerial intelligence in high-risk areas.” But the ACLU of Ohio warns that without appropriate legislation, these tools could overstep constitutional boundaries. [without legislation here means without approval from citizens; lawmakers represent the people who are allegedly bound to the will of the people. Police departments, like all government agencies, are made up of unelected officials who are said to be servants subject to lawmakers.]

Departments in Perry and Athens Counties expanded their drone programs recently, using unmanned aerial systems equipped with thermal imaging and zoom cameras. While originally intended for emergencies and missing persons cases, the drones are now being deployed for broader crime-fighting operations.

Lt. John Morris of the Athens County Sheriff’s Office said technological improvements allowed them to begin using drones in more advanced ways. 

The drones also patrol high-crime neighborhoods at night, detecting heat signatures of people who might be committing crimes. 

Jeff Wilson, Perry County Sheriff’s Office drone program coordinator, said the department has flown more than 140 missions since 2020, using drones in mental health crises, criminal pursuits and to assist in firefighting. 

But the growing use of drones for surveillance raises privacy concerns—especially when flights are conducted over private property or in residential areas.

Both Wilson and Morris said that law enforcement drone operators follow FAA guidelines and attempt to limit data collection until reaching their target. Flights are generally not recorded unless there is evidentiary or training value. 

Both officers acknowledged that drones can legally fly over private property without permission or a warrant, so long as they remain within regulated airspace.

This is what worries the ACLU.

Gary Daniels, a policy analyst with ACLU Ohio, said the organization is pushing for laws at the local and state levels to regulate drone use. 

“We think it’s a no-brainer,” Daniels said. “If law enforcement is intent on saying and claiming that, ‘we’re only going to use it for these specific purposes, emergency purposes, exigent circumstances, you know, lay those out. Let’s get a law passed at the local or the state level so that law enforcement can go ahead and use these technologies for those types.”

Daniels noted that although some agencies, like Perry County, have internal drone policies —such as retaining footage for no more than 60 days unless needed for evidence— these policies are not legally binding and don’t offer adequate protection. 

He argues that without legislation, there’s nothing stopping law enforcement from expanding drone use in ways that infringe on civil liberties (or from so called “public servants” doing things that “public masters” don’t want them to do in a so-called representative democracy).

Ohio lawmakers are considering House Bill 251, which would require warrants for most forms of drone surveillance, ban weaponized drones and mandate public transparency and data retention policies. It would still allow warrantless use in specific scenarios, such as emergencies, natural disasters or monitoring traffic. 

Until such law is passed, Daniels says the risk of unchecked surveillance remains. [MORE]

DHS Now Demanding Names and Phone Numbers of Social Media Users Critical of ICE

From [HERE] In a move that should send a chill down the spine of every American who still believes in the First and Fourth Amendments, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially weaponized the administrative subpoena to unmask and intimidate its online critics.

According to recent reports from mid-February 2026, the DHS has issued hundreds of these “shadow subpoenas” to tech giants including Google, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Reddit, and Discord. The target? Accounts that document ICE raids, track agent locations in real-time, or—most disturbingly—simply voice criticism of the agency’s tactics.

For those unfamiliar with the terminology, an administrative subpoena is a tool that allows the state to bypass the judiciary entirely. Unlike a search warrant, which requires a judge to sign off based on “probable cause” of a crime, these subpoenas are issued by the executive branch itself.

DHS is reportedly leaning on 8 U.S.C. § 1225(d) and other customs-related authorities to demand sensitive subscriber data—names, IP addresses, and phone numbers—without ever having to prove to a court that a crime has been committed. While these tools were supposedly intended to track down human traffickers or customs violators, they are now being repurposed to silence neighborhood watch groups and peaceful dissenters. [MORE]

Israeli Puppetician Shulamit Aloni: We Use The Holocaust and "Antisemite" - "It's A Trick - We Always Use It"

Marco Rubio declares war on non-white peoples worldwide

From [HERE] If US President Donald Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth declared America a Christian republic at the National Prayer Breakfast in early February, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has now declared the country a white European Christian republic. 

In a speech delivered last week to European heads of state at the Security Conference in Munich, Rubio declared war on all non-European non-white peoples inside the US and around the world. 

Rubio made clear that America was, and should again be, a white country: "Our home may be in the Western Hemisphere, but we will always be a child of Europe." 

To the detriment of more than 140 million Americans who are not white and do not issue from Europe, Rubio unflinchingly stated: "We want allies who are proud of their culture and of their heritage, who understand that we are heirs to the same great and noble civilization, and who, together with us, are willing and able to defend it."

Lest Europe forget, Rubio reminded it of its own Christian identity: "The United States and Europe, we belong together. America was founded 250 years ago, but the roots began here on this continent long before. The man who settled and built the nation of my birth arrived on our shores carrying the memories and the traditions and the Christian faith of their ancestors as a sacred inheritance, an unbreakable link between the old world and the new." 

Rubio's remarks echoed the anti-non-white immigrant policies instituted in the US since the birth of the white Christian republic and reasserted by Trump. 

He spoke directly of the threat that African, Asian, and Latin American immigrants constitute to Europe, as well as to the "fabric" of white America: "But we must also gain control of our national borders. Controlling who and how many people enter our countries, this is not an expression of xenophobia. It is not hate. It is a fundamental act of national sovereignty. And the failure to do so is not just an abdication of one of our most basic duties owed to our people. It is an urgent threat to the fabric of our societies and the survival of our civilization itself."

Rubio's rhetoric is not far removed from the white supremacist American discourse, policies and ideology that have defined the United States since its independence 250 years ago, let alone from the time-honoured white Christian supremacist tradition of its European counterparts. [MORE]

Top Dumbocrat Puppeticians Try to Stop or Delay Vote That Would Put Them on Record for Trump's Iran War

From [HERE] House Foreign Affairs Committee Democrats have been working behind the scenes to try to prevent a vote on Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie’s Iran war powers resolution – a measure that would require every member of Congress to go on the record about a potential U.S. war with Iran.

A top Democratic HFAC staffer, multiple sources with direct knowledge tell me, ​​deliberately inflated projections of opposition to the bipartisan measure – warning of 20 to 40 Democratic defections – as part of a broader effort to dampen momentum and prevent the Iran war powers vote from advancing. Khanna and Massie had initially planned to force a vote on the resolution this week, but Democratic leadership is now saying they expect the vote to be delayed until next week or even later. The postponement comes as the Trump administration accelerates preparations for unauthorized military action, overseeing the largest U.S. military buildup in the region in years.

Khanna and Massie argue that Congress must weigh in before – not after – the U.S. is pulled into another regime change war in the Middle East. Their resolution would require explicit congressional authorization for any military action against Iran, a vote that could become one of the most consequential foreign policy decisions in recent congressional history.

Massa Media Promotes the Delusion that the US Has a Right to Wage War on Iran and Control Who Runs the Country

From [HERE] The United States has no right to wage war on Iran, or to have a say who governs the country. The opinion pages of the New York Times and Washington Post, however, are offering facile humanitarian arguments for the US to escalate its attacks on Iran. These are based on the nonsensical assumption that the US wants to help brighten Iranians’ futures.

In two editorials addressing the possibility of the US undertaking a bombing and shooting war on Iran, the Washington Post expressed no opposition to such policies and endorsed economic warfare as well.

Crediting Trump with “the wisdom of distinguishing between an authoritarian regime and the people who suffer under its rule,” the first Post editorial (1/2/26) approvingly quoted Trump’s Truth Social promise (1/2/26) to Iranian protesters that the US “will come to their rescue…. We are locked and loaded and ready to go.”

For the Post, the problem was not that Trump was threatening to bomb a sovereign state, but that “airstrikes are, at best, a temporary solution”:

If the administration wants this time to be different, it will need to oversee a patient, sustained campaign of maximum pressure against the government…. The optimal strategy is to economically squeeze the regime as hard as possible at this moment of maximum vulnerability. More stringent enforcement of existing oil sanctions would go a long way…. Western financial controls are actually working quite well. [MORE]

Only 20% of US Adults Support Puppet Trump's War on Iran in Non-Representative Demockery: Poll

From [HERE] and [29 OTHER POLLS] A University of Maryland Critical Issues Poll released on 15 February revealed that a mere 21 percent of adults in the US support President Donald Trump's plans of war against Iran, while 49 percent of respondents oppose it.

The study was led by Shibley Telhami and conducted by SSRS between 5 and 9 February among 1,004 adults in the US.

When asked, “Do you favor or oppose the United States initiating an attack on Iran under the current circumstances?” 21 percent of respondents favored an attack, 49 percent opposed it, and 30 percent said they did not know. 

Support was highest among Republicans at 40 percent, compared to 6 percent among Democrats and 21 percent among independents, while opposition reached 74 percent among Democrats, 51 percent among independents, and 25 percent among Republicans. 

Asked whose interests would be most advanced by a war with Iran, 31 percent said the US, 35 percent said other parties, and 33 percent said they did not know. Among those naming other beneficiaries, 16 percent cited Israel, 11 percent the Iranian people, and three percent some Arab states. [MORE]

Puppet Trump Barks and Claps and Starts Unlawful War Against Iran but Can’t Explain Why to His Subjects. US Troops Blow Up School w/Over 100 Inside, Children and Adults Murdered ‘for their Own Good’

GO SHIT IN A HAT. UNFREE LEADERS LYNDSAY GRAHAM AND DUMMY TRUMP GRMACE AND POSE - TRUMP HOLDS A MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN HAT LAST MONTH

BORED OF PEACE. From [HERE] At least 115 people, almost all of them young girls, have been killed in an air strike on a primary school in southern Iran, according to the city’s governor.

The attack on Saturday morning hit Shajareh Tayyebeh school in the city of Minab, in Hormozgan province, as the United States and Israel began launching strikes on targets across Iran.

The victims were between seven and 12 years old, according to Iran's Tasnim and Fars news agencies.

A staff member at the Minab school, who asked not to be named, told Middle East Eye she remains in shock at the intensity of the attack.

Through tears, she said she used to watch the young girls playing at school every day. After today’s strikes, however, she saw their bodies lying on classroom benches and in different corners of the school.

She said she had stepped out of the school to take care of something when she suddenly heard a horrifying sound. Within seconds, a missile - or something like it - hit the school building.

After hearing the blast, she ran back towards the school and was faced with a scene she says she would never forget. 

“I felt like I had gone mute. I couldn’t speak,” the staff member told MEE. “You could hear the sound of children crying and screaming.”

When rescue teams arrived, she said, they began to understand the scale of the disaster.

“We still don’t know how many are under the rubble. Some are even saying more than 100. Some of these small children are severely injured. Their parents have come to the school, and this place has turned into a house of mourning.”

The air strike on the school left many inside the building trapped beneath the rubble.

There were 170 female students at the school at the time of the attack. So far, at least 45 people have also been reported wounded.

Footage posted by Telegram accounts affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps appeared to show people digging through the rubble.

Smoke could be seen rising from surrounding buildings, while a wrecked car lay in the street. People were heard screaming and wailing; others appeared to be in shock. [MORE]

Western financial controls are actually working quite well.

Thus, the paper offers advice on how to integrate bombing Iran into a broader effort to overthrow the country’s government in a hybrid war. Central to that project are the sanctions with which the Post is so thoroughly impressed. Such measures have “squeeze[d] the regime” by, for example, decimating “the government’s primary source of revenue, oil exports, limiting the state’s ability to provide for millions of impoverished Iranians through social safety nets” (CNN, 10/19/25).

That the US continues to apply the sanctions, knowing that they have these effects, demonstrates that it has no interest in, as the Post put it, “free[ing]” Iranians “from bondage.” [MORE]

'Blacks are Apes.' Unable to Speak in Clear Sentences President Poop Makes Vowel Sounds/Tones and Uses Cartoons to Push White Propaganda to Neuropeons, Providing Living Proof White Supremacy is a Myth

WHY IS HE SHITTING ON HIMSELF ALL THE TIME?[PromentalShitBackWashPhysicalEnemaSquad]. The word on the street is that President Poop constantly shits on himself, literally. If true, Blight House staff and massa media have worked hard to conceal this state secret. Trump also probably walks around on all fours and untucks his tail outside the view of the public.

According to FUNKTIONARY:

white propaganda – a game two can play—which consists simply in repeating “I am better than you” and “you are utterly unlike (opposite to) me” over and over again; despite the historical record to the contrary.

comparison – a disease of the mind due to the ignorance of uniqueness. 2) the endless swing of the clash of opposites fueled by the perpetual motion of the mind-pendulum within the mind governed by the separate sense of self. Each individual is unique and beyond the scope of comparison. Those who fall victim to comparison will either become egoistic or bitter. You don’t belong to any hierarchy—nobody is lower or higher than what “you” imagine yourself and “others” to be. Comparison creates differences or distinctions only when there is not uniformity. Comparison limits the possibility of living in the moment. Academic studies of reward-related brain activity in the human ventral striatum depicts the greatest activation of the brain’s rewards centers depends crucially on a comparison which the rewards received by others, further demonstrating that the pain of having less is greater than the pleasure of having more. In life’s division of spoils, if you have less comparatively, no matter how much you do have, you still recoil.

'When The Government Claims the Power to Decide Whose Life Has Value and Whose Does Not—Who May Live and Who May Die in the Name of the "General Welfare"—It is No Longer Governing. It is Playing God'

WALI BEY WAS MURDERED BY NEWARK POLICE BUT MASSA MEDIA ISN’T INTERESTED. ‘What would you do if Men in Masks Came at you w/Guns Pointed?” Newark Police Decline to Provide Details After Plainclothes Cops in Unmarked Car Fatally Shot Wali Bey through Windshield as He Fled

BUT WHAT IS GOVERNING THOUGH? From [RON PAUL] When the government claims the power to decide whose life has value and whose does not—who may live and who may die in the name of “security,” “order,” or “efficiency”—it is no longer governing. It is playing god.

A government that acts as if freedoms—and life, in turn—are privileges granted by the state has abandoned the foundational principle that rights are inherent and inalienable.

We see it in a system that celebrates the sanctity of life before birth while expanding the machinery of death after birth—through executions carried out in the name of justice, militarized policing carried out in the name of order, indefinite detention carried out in the name of security, shoot-first enforcement regimes that treat civilians as threats rather than human beings, and endless wars driven by greed, profit and ego.

Nor are these executions limited to death chambers.

As the killing of Renée Good makes clear, the modern police state now carries out executions in the streets—without trial, without jury, and without meaningful accountability.

When government agents act as judge, jury, and executioner, the distinction between capital punishment and law enforcement violence collapses.

Both rest on the same premise: that the state has the moral authority to decide, unilaterally and irrevocably, that a human life is no longer worthy of protection.

We see it in a bureaucracy that has armed itself like an occupying force—federal agencies equipped with military-grade weapons, surveillance tools, and near-total immunity—while insisting that this concentration of power is necessary for our safety.

We see it in the normalization of state violence: no-knock raids, warrantless searches, armed enforcement actions carried out in residential neighborhoods, and the fatal shootings of U.S. citizens during domestic enforcement operations that resemble a military deployment more than civilian law enforcement.

Alex Pretti’s death was the foreseeable end result of a system that normalizes state violence, immunizes authority from accountability, and treats human life as collateral damage.

Once government is allowed to decide whose life matters, no life is safe. [MORE]

Puppet Trump's Rule by Force Doctrine Offers a Grim Choice for the world: Obey Authority to Remain Free

Given US President Donald Trump’s declarations that there would be no mass executions of protesters in Iran, and that the killings had stopped, it appears that Iran will for the moment be spared the Venezuela treatment or worse. 

Yet even without military action in the form of targeted assassinations or bombing campaigns, it would be safer - especially for the Iranian regime - to consider such interventions as having only been put on hold, at best. 

This sudden change of heart might simply be a sort of psy-op ploy to reassure Iran’s regime, encouraging the nation to lower its guard before an actual strike. It’s also possible that Trump was genuinely convinced to shelve that option, at least for awhile. 

Many factors might have contributed to this about-face, including the resolute opposition of Trump’s regional allies; the still-fresh example of the Iraq disaster; the lack of preparation among the US and its regional allies for a major operation in Iran; the likely destabilising consequences for the region, especially Lebanon; the possibility of “mission creep”; the uncertainty over the ultimate outcome in Iran itself; and the lack of viable opposition figures.

Palestinians in Israeli jails face ‘conditions unfit for human beings,’ state agency says

Recently revealed reports from the Public Defender’s Office of the Justice Ministry show that Palestinian security detainees held in Israeli prisons have suffered from severe and systematic violence from prison guards, deprivation of food, and medical neglect, while also having been subjected to unsanitary conditions that caused and exacerbated outbreaks of disease in the prisons.

Inspectors from the Public Defense Office who visited four prisons in 2024 documented seeing skeletal prisoners and witnessing physical evidence of beatings and medical neglect on the bodies of prisoners they interviewed.

The reports were made public after a year-long legal battle by the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI), which filed a freedom of information request to gain access to the documents, after the Justice Ministry refused to release them. [MORE]

Barbaric US and Israel Authorities are Preparing Land in Rafah to Corral Palestinians into an Area [plantation] Under Military Occupation and 24/7 Video and Biometric Surveillance

Israel is razing a strategic area of Rafah in southern Gaza, compacting the ground, and clearing rubble in a way that suggests the land is being prepared for the construction of new residential infrastructure, according to new research by Forensic Architecture. The findings, which are based on an analysis of satellite imagery, suggest that Israel is beginning to build infrastructure which may be used to house Palestinians and effectively contain them in an area under full Israeli military control.

Since the so-called ceasefire went into effect on October 10, Israel has engaged in widespread destruction of buildings and infrastructure across the more than 53% of Gaza that it occupies east of the yellow line. However, this pattern of Israeli activity—razing the land, compacting the ground, and clearing the rubble—is not visible at this scale anywhere else east of the yellow line. The activity is centered in an area around 1 square kilometer in Rafah at the intersection of the two military corridors. [MORE]

The U.S. military-led group supporting “stabilization efforts” in Gaza has put forward plans for a housing block for Palestinians in Gaza in an area under full Israel military control. According to materials circulated by the Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC) and obtained by Drop Site News, the “planned community,” if developed, would contain and control its residents through biometric surveillance, checkpoints, monitoring of purchases, and educational programs promoting normalization with Israel.

The CMCC was established by U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) on October 17, one week after Hamas and Israel agreed to an exchange of captives and a ceasefire was supposed to go into effect. The center, which is based in a large warehouse-style building in Kiryat Gat in southern Israel and involves dozens of countries and organizations, is supposed to “monitor implementation of the ceasefire” and “help facilitate the flow of humanitarian, logistical, and security assistance from international counterparts into Gaza,” according to CENTCOM.

The Ruthlessness and Brutality of the US Government

From [HERE] I have long maintained that one of the big obstacles libertarians face in the achievement of a genuinely free society is the fact that most Americans honestly believe they are free. When people are convinced they are free, they have no reason to want to join up with us libertarians in our effort to establish a genuinely free society. Instead, they simply view libertarianism as a “weird” philosophy that purports to achieve what we already have — a free society.

One can only hope that the recent killings of 37-year-old Renée Good and 37-year-old Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, both of whom were regular American citizens, will enable at least some Americans to break through the inches-thick indoctrination that has encased their minds and that has convinced them that they live in a free society. After all, how can a society genuinely be considered free when the government wields the omnipotent power to kill anyone it wants?

And make no mistake about it: As we have seen, US officials have the omnipotent power to kill any American they want. That’s a harsh reality that so many Americans still do not want to accept. They’d rather remain convinced that they live under the same governmental structure on which our nation was founded, one in which the federal government’s powers were limited and restricted by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

They also promised that the children’s sensitive data would be closely guarded in the decade-long study, which got underway in 2015. Promotional materials included a cartoon of a Black child saying it felt good knowing that “scientists are taking steps to keep my information safe.”

The scientists did not keep it safe.

A group of fringe researchers thwarted safeguards at the National Institutes of Health and gained access to data from thousands of children. The researchers have used it to produce at least 16 papers purporting to find biological evidence for differences in intelligence between races, ranking ethnicities by I.Q. scores and suggesting Black people earn less because they are not very smart.

Mainstream geneticists have rejected their work as biased and unscientific. Yet by relying on genetic and other personal data from the prominent project, known as the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study, the researchers gave their theories an air of analytical rigor…

The misuse of the children’s data has validated longstanding concerns that hundreds of thousands of Americans’ genetic information held by the N.I.H. could fall into the wrong hands. The agency grants widespread access to stimulate new medical discoveries. But critics say the N.I.H. has failed to address the risks that the data, even with personally identifiable details removed, could be misused in unethical research, for commercial purposes or by foreign adversaries.

At least 63 times since 2007, data from some of the 28 human genomic repositories that the N.I.H. controls was improperly released to researchers, used for unapproved purposes or made vulnerable to theft, according to government records reviewed by The New York Times. In dozens of cases, the N.I.H. suspended researchers’ access and demanded that compromised data be destroyed, but the agency relies heavily on good-faith pledges of compliance.

The misuse of the data for so-called race science is not the only example of a security failure involving the ABCD Study. [MORE]

A New Joint Center Report Finds Significantly High Unemployment (7.8 %) Rate Among Black Americans, using Blight House Data

The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies has released a new report, “State of the Dream 2026: From Regression to Signs of a Black Recession,” examining the economic conditions facing Black communities in 2025.

Although the unemployment rate for Black Americans slightly improved from November to December, the unemployment rate for Black workers was 7.5 percent by the end of 2025. According to the Joint Center, if that unemployment rate was seen nationwide, it would indicate a recession. Overall unemployment among all Americans was 4.4 percent at the end of December. Unemployment rates among White Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans were 3.8 percent, 4.9 percent, and 3.6 percent, respectively.

Year-end unemployment rates were slightly higher among Black women (7.8 percent) than Black men (7.2 percent). This could be due to the significant loss of federal jobs in 2025. Of the 271,000 federal jobs cut last year, an estimated 200,000 were held by Black women. While the overall unemployment rate for all young workers decreased from 9.9 percent in November to 9.2 percent in December, young Black workers unemployment rate decreased from 20.8 percent in November to 14.4 percent in December.
