Image is of a protest in San Diego against ICE.
On January 7th, 37-year-old Renee Good was murdered by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. While a considerable amount of the discussion online has been about the direction her wheels were turning and things like that, truthfully, I think it's just fundamentally bad to shoot a person to death with a gun if you happen to be a state mercenary enforcing an incredibly racist federal policy, regardless of the circumstances.
The murder has since prompted a wave of vigils and protests, not only in Minneapolis, but also in virtually every major city in the country. The demands are justice for Good in particular, and the abolition of ICE in general, to avenge its many victims. The Trump administration has done all they can to inflame the situation, designating Good a "domestic terrorist" and saying that the agent who shot her will be immune from prosecution.
Protests and resistance to this administration's policies have, encouragingly, had an element of international solidarity - not only are flags from countries throughout Latin America (and also Palestine) present, but speakers in protests have even been actively condemning the recent imperialist actions against Venezuela. For it is, of course, one joint struggle. The imperial boomerang always returns - and in the modern day, it returns rapidly.

The Zionist Entity's Genocide of Palestine
Sources on the fighting in Palestine against the temporary Zionist entity. In general, CW for footage of battles, explosions, dead people, and so on:
UNRWA reports on Israel's destruction and siege of Gaza and the West Bank.
English-language Palestinian Marxist-Leninist twitter account. Alt here.
English-language twitter account that collates news.
Arab-language twitter account with videos and images of fighting.
English-language (with some Arab retweets) Twitter account based in Lebanon. - Telegram is @IbnRiad.
English-language Palestinian Twitter account which reports on news from the Resistance Axis. - Telegram is @EyesOnSouth.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict
Sources:
Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

https://t.me/Slavyangrad ~ A few different pro-Russian people gather frequent content for this channel (~100 posts per day), some socialist, but all socially reactionary. If you can only tolerate using one Russian telegram channel, I would recommend this one.

https://t.me/gonzowarr ~ A big Russian commentator.
https://t.me/rybar ~ One of, if not the, biggest Russian telegram channels focussing on the war out there. Actually quite balanced, maybe even pessimistic about Russia. Produces interesting and useful maps.
https://t.me/epoddubny ~ Russian language.
https://t.me/boris_rozhin ~ Russian language.
https://t.me/mod_russia_en ~ Russian Ministry of Defense. Does daily, if rather bland updates on the number of Ukrainians killed, etc. The figures appear to be approximately accurate; if you want, reduce all numbers by 25% as a 'propaganda tax', if you don't believe them. Does not cover everything, for obvious reasons, and virtually never details Russian losses.

Almost every Western media outlet.

Ansarallah Commander Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr El-Din Al-Houthi in his speech today, January 15th, 2026:
—
The enemies failed in their goal of killing the Martyr of the Quran [Hussein Al-Houthi] by thinking they could end his project; instead, he won by having his martyrdom linked to this sacred project, which is now stronger than ever.
The primary cause of the weakness, dispersion, despair, and defeat of the Islamic Ummah today is the crisis of trust in Allah Almighty and His promises.
The enemies' culture and directions are based on permitting violations against us—permitting our killing, extermination, and permitting the violation of our honor, homelands, and wealth.
The zionist enemy, planted by enemies in the heart of our Arab and Islamic region, is a forward front meant to penetrate our arena in its depth and impose total control.
With the announcement of the second phase of the Gaza agreement, look at what the zionist enemy is doing in the first phase: the enemy does not fulfill most of what the agreement included, maintaining a state of continued siege, daily killing, aggression, and destruction.
The zionist project moves with an American partnership and Western support, seeking to change the "Middle East" and dominate it completely.
Normalization comes in the context of empowering the zionist entity in the region further and placing it in a position of leadership and control over the Ummah.
The American failed in Iran due to the vigilance and consciousness of the Iranian people, who came out in majestic million-man marches expressing that they will not submit to America.
The American direction globally is based on tyranny, exposed as happened in the aggression on Venezuela and the kidnapping of Maduro and his wife, with the open declaration of the goal to plunder wealth.
The American openly declares his goal to control Greenland for the rare minerals and massive wealth within it; the bullying and tyranny of the US constitutes a danger to all peoples of the world.
We are moving in this phase within the framework of "Preparation for the Coming Round," because conflict is inevitable with the zionist enemy and with the American.
I praise all existing activities within the framework of "Preparation for the Coming Round"—the general mobilization activities, military courses, and the tribal stands across all free governorates.
We are steadfast in the framework of the Quranic Project, continuing and confident, moving in a liberational direction containing faithful pride and human dignity.
The zionist entity seeks a presence in Somalia to threaten the Red Sea and Bab-el-Mandeb; we will not hesitate to target any zionist presence we can reach.
What the zionist entity has done in Gaza—the deliberate killing and collective genocide of thousands of children and women—has shocked the human conscience globally.

The axis of resistance is holding by a thread.
If you are in the imperial core, please organize, build a community, support each other, and step towards change.
This is existential for many of us.
One of the only world leaders who doesn't shy away from this fact. May Allah preserve him
