We had SNOW here today. It certainly doesn't feel like the planet is warming

Ghislaine Maxwell, the co-conspirator of the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is in the process of seeking a commutation of her 20-year prison sentence from President Donald Trump, a whistleblower has told House Democrats.

According to the whistleblower, whose identity the committee has not revealed, Maxwell has received what was described as “concierge-style” treatment at the minimum security prison camp that she was transferred to, including customized meals, permission to go to the exercise area after hours, and time to play with a puppy that was being trained by an inmate to become a service dog, among other things.

The whistleblower also claimed that a top official at the prison camp complained he is “sick of having to be Maxwell’s bitch.”

Testimonies documented by PCHR’s lawyers and field researchers contain harrowing testimonies relating to cases of rape perpetrated by Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) against Palestinian civilians, including women, who were arrested from different areas across the Gaza Strip over the past two years.

Among these cases is N.A., a 42-year-old Palestinian woman and mother who was arrested while passing through an Israeli checkpoint set up in northern Gaza in November 2024.

“At dawn I heard the soldiers shouting, saying that morning prayers were forbidden, and I think it was the fourth day after my arrest from Gaza. The soldiers moved me to a place I didn’t know because my eyes were blindfolded, and they ordered me to take off my clothes. I did so. They put me on a metal table, pressed my chest and head against it, cuffed my hands to the end of the bed, and pulled my legs apart forcefully. I felt a penis penetrating my anus and a man raping me. I started screaming, and they beat me on my back and head while I was blindfolded. I felt the man who was raping me ejaculate inside my anus. I kept screaming and being beaten, and I could hear a camera—so I believe they were filming me. The rape lasted about 10 minutes. After that, they left me for an hour in the same position, with my hands cuffed to the bed with metal handcuffs, my face on the bed, my feet on the floor, and I was completely naked.

Again, after an hour, I was raped fully in the same position, with penetration into my vagina, and I was beaten while I screamed. There were several soldiers; I heard them laughing and the camera clicking as it took pictures. This rape was very quick and there was no ejaculation. During the rape they beat me with their hands on my head and back.

Chi Ossé, a far-left city councilman aligned with the policies of Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, has told political allies that he is planning to challenge Representative Hakeem Jeffries, the top House Democrat, in next June’s primary.

But he may not have the mayor-elect’s support.

Mr. Mamdani has privately tried to discourage his ideological ally from running. The mayor-elect and his team fear that another high-profile challenge from the left might compromise his own bid to push the Democratic establishment to support his affordability agenda.

The disagreement caused Mr. Ossé to be disinvited from Mr. Mamdani’s election night watch party, according to two people familiar with the matter, even though he has been a frequent presence at Mr. Mamdani’s campaign events. Instead, Mr. Ossé said he spent the night “with my constituents at D.S.A. events celebrating Zohran’s incredible win.”

Why is this book so expensive? Would this book go back into production?

Gate of Ivrel, by CJ Cherryh, is a fantastic blend of science fiction and fantasy. Great characters, a fun world, and just so well written. I loved this book, one of my favorites of the year for sure.

“There were many bodies on the roads, dead people everywhere, and many children in the streets who had lost their families,” said Amina. “Rape happened before our eyes, and killings too.”

Fatima said she was beaten in front of her daughter, who she’d been carrying on her back during the journey out of el-Fasher.

“They ordered me to put her down and started whipping me. They hit me on the chest with my mobile phone, and my children began screaming and crying,” Fatima said.

“They even beat and killed women in the streets. There are bodies lying on the roads. We left so many corpses behind us. If you cannot hide well, they will kill you.”

I stumbled across the GitHub page by chance. I've been looking for an alternative to Terminus for quite some time. Termix looks really good. Very nice web interface. It's still a bit buggy in a few places, but it's quite usable.

"Termix is a web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities. Here, you can find the repositories for the main Termix server, along with the mobile app, documentation, and support"

Following years of organizing by LGBTQ+ activists, advocates for queer rights and Palestinian solidarity announced Tuesday that the Human Rights Campaign, one of the largest LGBTQ+ organizations in the world, has stopped taking cash from manufacturers Northrop Grumman and Raytheon, according to the statement from the Gender Liberation Movement and Adalah Justice Project.

Protesters had accused HRC of “pinkwashing,” a term used to describe the use of Israel’s publicly pro-LGBTQ+ stance to distract from its violations of Palestinians’ human rights.

“Organizations like HRC can no longer prioritize proximity to power over the well-being of our people, nor center inclusion in the very systems that are killing us,” said the statement from the Gender Liberation Movement and Adalah Justice Project. “Freedom, equality, and justice for our queer and trans siblings here can only be achieved when we collectively confront the systems that are harming communities everywhere.”
