According to the deputy, Milei violated current regulations. “The attempt to involve Argentina in an international armed conflict without going through Congress is a violation of all our regulations,” he said. “It is Congress that authorizes, or not, the executive branch to make peace or war.”

first you need the temporary recidency that lasts 4 years, then you need to start the process which demands some time of continuos stay in mexico (i think its a year) and then just finish the process by paying around 9k pesos, its easier when you have the temporary residency since by then you are already in the system

The governments of the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu have announced their commitment to create a massive multinational Melanesian Ocean Reserve. If implemented as envisioned, the reserve would become the world’s first Indigenous-led ocean reserve, covering an area nearly as big as the Amazon Rainforest.

Speaking at the U.N. Ocean Conference underway in Nice, France, representatives of both countries said the vision for the ocean reserve is to cover at least 6 million square kilometers (2.3 million square miles) of ocean and islands. The reserve will include the combined national waters of the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea, and extend to the protected waters of New Caledonia’s exclusive economic zone. All of the island countries, largely inhabited by Indigenous Melanesians, are located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, within the region known as Melanesia.

“The Melanesian Ocean Reserve will give the governments and peoples of Melanesia the ability to do much more to protect our ancestral waters from those who extract and exploit without concern for our planet and its living beings. We hope our Indigenous stewardship of this vast reserve will create momentum for similar initiatives all over the world,” Vanuatu’s environment minister, Ralph Regenvanu, said in a joint press release.

Melanesia is one of the world’s most biodiverse regions, hosting an incredible diversity of both land and marine species, including an estimated 75% of known coral species and more than 3,000 species of reef-associated fish.

If you could walk the ocean floor off the coast of Cape Arago in Oregon in the summer, you’d find yourself in the mysterious green depths of a forest of kelp. Look up, and you’d see sunlight filtering through the fronds waving in the current; look down, and you’d see the plants anchored to an ocean floor covered with life. But if you walked a little bit farther, you’d come to a barren clearing, no sign of kelp or much else — just a carpet of purple sea urchin, a creature that is devouring kelp at an alarming rate.

The disappearance of kelp forests is widely felt here; gray whales have changed their foraging patterns, and the red abalone fishery in Northern California closed after swarms of urchins and warming waters destroyed more than 90% of the kelp forests there. In Oregon, a 2024 study by the Oregon Kelp Alliance found that over a 12-year period, the kelp forest off the coast declined by up to 73%, primarily due to an out-of-control population of purple sea urchins, which graze on the kelp. This system is out of balance largely owing to the absence of a keystone species: xvlh-t’vsh, which means “sea otter” in the Athabaskan language of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians. For more than 20 years, the Siletz Tribe has been working to reintroduce sea otters.

Defeating the war on Black/African people requires solidarity with all who are oppressed and resistance against our common enemy.

As community defenders, organizers, and residents resisted Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Los Angeles this past weekend, the state has responded by calling in the FBI and Border Patrol SWAT units, utilizing Blackhawk helicopters to deliver munitions and military-grade equipment, and mobilizing the National Guard and Marines to quell the justified uprising. As our comrades in SoCal BAP have clearly stated, this is domestic warfare .

The connection could not be clearer between the specific kidnappings orchestrated by ICE and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in Los Angeles on one hand, and the broad militarization of our cities and neighborhoods on the other. Those resisting on the ground in LA have drawn clear parallels with the struggle of the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza, the uprisings of 2020-21, the broader Black Liberation Movement, and the anti-colonial resistance against U.S. imperialism throughout the Americas. Meanwhile, some observers have encouraged Black/African people to ‘sit this one out’ because it supposedly does not involve “us”.

The Black Alliance for Peace (BAP) unequivocally rejects this narrative that the oppression of immigrants and migrant communities, and the fascist operations of ICE/DHS, are irrelevant for Black/African people. Black/African people are already resisting and standing in solidarity in LA, just as people and communities of all backgrounds mobilized during the uprisings of 2020. Beyond this, we know that Black immigrants throughout the U.S. are disproportionately targeted for criminalization, detention, and deportation. Further, mass deportation not only dehumanizes immigrants, but it deepens the carceral and punitive hold of these state over all oppressed residents. This also extends beyond the borders of the U.S., as we continue to see Haitian immigrants and descendants in the Dominican Republic being summarily rounded up, brutalized, deported, and in some cases, killed , in what effectively amounts to an apartheid regime under President Luis Abinader.

Product of decades-long process aims to restore Heiltsuk’s system of coherent governance destroyed by colonial powers

When outsiders arrived in the lands of the Heiltsuk people, they brought with them a rapacious appetite for the region’s trees, fish and minerals. Settlers and the government soon followed, claiming ownership of the thick cedar forests, the fjords and the abundance of life. Heiltsuk elders were confused. “If these are truly your lands,” they asked, “where are your stories?”

For the Heiltsuk, stories explain everything from the shape of a local mountain to the distinct red fur fringes on the sea wolves stalking shores. They tell of the flesh-eating monster baxbakwa’lanuxusiwe, whose entire body was covered with snapping mouths before it was destroyed by a shaman and became a cloud of mosquitoes.

Passed down over generations, in ceremonies forbidden by Canada’s government, the stories weave together the physical world, the supernatural and the liminal space that binds the two.

Such stories are also the bedrock of the Heiltsuk’s newly created constitution, a document recently ratified through ceremony that asserts the nation’s long-held convictions that they are the original inhabitants and rightful stewards of the region’s future.

Vegan Chilaquiles recipe

Chilaquiles are a traditional Mexican breakfast dish made with tortillas.

In central Mexico, it is common for the tortilla chips to remain crisp. To achieve this, all ingredients except the salsa are placed on a plate and the salsa is poured at the last moment before serving. In Guadalajara, cazuelas are kept simmering, filled with chilaquiles that become thick in texture, similar to polenta. In the state of Sinaloa, chilaquiles are sometimes prepared with cream. In the state of Tamaulipas, on the northeast side of the country, red tomato sauce is commonly used. In the state of San Luis Potosí, it is also common to serve chilaquiles with cecina rather than pulled chicken.

Harden your heart Khamenei

Context

Explosions rocked Tehran early Friday morning, and Israel’s defense minister said his country’s warplanes had carried out an attack on Iran, raising fears of an all-out war between two of the most powerful militaries in the Middle East.

Neither the scale of the attack nor the damage it caused was immediately clear. The strike was expected to prompt swift retaliation from Iran, likely involving a large barrage of ballistic missiles comparable to that Iran fired during similar escalations last year.

BUSHWICK, Brooklyn (WABC) -- The NYPD is searching for a masked suspect seen fleeing the scene after at least 11 police vehicles went up in flames early Thursday morning.

When officers went to investigate, they found undetonated explosive devices, similar to M-80s, on three other cars around the charred NYPD vehicles in Brooklyn.

 

Michael Furlow, Licensed Practical Nurse in New Haven and part of SEIU 1199 NE joins the show to discuss the deepening crisis in US nursing homes, where decades of underfunding have left workers scrambling for basic supplies like soap, trash bags, and medical tape. With the federal government planning to slash Medicaid and Medicare, lifelines for so many elderly and disabled people, Furlo warns, “These cuts would be devastating… the majority of residents I care for are either on Medicaid or Medicare,” and says residents could be left “with nowhere to live, with nowhere to go.”
