On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, we do more than celebrate, we rise together. Every day, Indigenous Peoples lead the way as protectors of land, water, air, and all that is sacred. Our voices, traditions, and resistance are woven into the fabric of justice and healing. We honor the ancestors and uplift the next generation, standing strong against systems that threaten our sovereignty. Today and every day, we defend, restore, and reconnect our relationship with Mother Earth. #DefendTheSacred #ProtectTheSacred

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

❝ The documentary film #NAZA (an acronym for Nezek Agavi; “collateral damage” in Hebrew), written and directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, has created a firestorm of controversy. The film contains interviews with 24 anonymous Israeli military and intelligence members who attest to the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and automated surveillance into military targeting systems used by Israeli forces during the ongoing Gaza genocide. ❞ — Yoav Litvin counterpunch.org/2026/09/25/…
