Trump Said to Authorize C.I.A. Plans for Covert Action in Venezuela (New York Times)

I feel as though I should illustrate the difference that this one single constraint can make by two examples.
The rules of Simon Says are maximally authoritarian. You must perform any action ordered, with the only restriction that the authority must say "Simon says" first. Were you forced to stay in this system, it would be the most despotic autocracy possible. But it's not. It's a silly game because you can leave at any time.
Let's flip this and imagine a room. During a specific period of time you will have absolute control over everything in this room. In this room you have total freedom. This is not even the limited freedom, the coordinated freedom, the compromising freedom of civil society. You could, without consequence, perform any action you wish in this room. You could say anything, destroy or steal any object, order any individual to perform any action, kill any person in the room with you and take anything they own. This is the sovereign freedom, the absolute freedom, of dictators and kings. The only restriction is that you are not allowed to leave the room while you have this freedom. In fact, you really only have this level of freedom because the room is actually empty other than for you. I am, of course, talking about a form of torture still common in the US: solitary confinement.
Qesser Zuhrah has just been picked up by an ambulance seconds ago. I wish for his survival and future wellbeing. Shame on Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy for not even listening to the hunger strikers and their demands!
The silencing and criminalization of Palestine Action has seen hoards of arrests, with the hunger strikes it may even claim its first lives. We must do everything in our power to prevent this, which means at least giving all arrested a chance to a fair trial!
I’ve turned off automatic updates on my Mac to ensure I don’t run into the same bullshit with the automatic iOS 26 update on the phone and I suggest you do the same.

You don’t even hear about 95% of the illegal stuff ICE is doing in MN — not in court, not on social media, certainly not on the news. This is the tip of the illegal action iceberg (pun intended, no apologies).

For a president who wants to project vigor and command at all times, Donald Trump made the worst possible spectacle of himself in the Oval Office last Thursday
when a participant fainted and several officials on hand rushed over.
-- Not Trump, however, who, after turning to look at the fallen man, stood a few feet away at the Resolute Desk with his back to the action, wearing an indifferent expression.
This was pointedly reflected in news photos that instantly went viral.
Trump's latest pardons underscore the breadth of his efforts to clear anyone involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election, which was won by Joe Biden.
Donald Trump on Friday issued a second pardon to Daniel Edwin Wilson,
whom he had previously pardoned for participation in the breach of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021,
but was in prison on a separate gun charge. The action was announced Saturday morning.
Trump also pardoned Suzanne Kaye, who had been sentenced to…

Iran extends airspace closure
Iran further extended an order closing its airspace to commercial aircraft without explanation early on Thursday.
A notice to pilots said the closure was estimated to last until 7.30am local time, the AP is reporting.
A previous order had closed the airspace for just over two hours.
The Iranian government offered no explanation of the decision to shut its airspace amid the tensions with Washington over Tehran’s protest crackdown.
