The Trump administration has, for the first time ever, built a searchable national citizenship data system.

The tool, which is being rolled out in phases, is designed to be used by state and local election officials to give them an easier way to ensure only citizens are voting. But it was developed rapidly without a public process, and some of those officials are already worrying about what else it could be used for.

NPR is the first news organization to report the details of the new system.

For decades, voting officials have noted that there was no national citizenship list to compare their state lists to, so to verify citizenship for their voters, they either needed to ask people to provide a birth certificate or a passport — something that could disenfranchise millions — or use a complex patchwork of disparate data sources.

Ci siamo spostati decisamente a nord rispetto alla latitudine originaria della cittadina di confine tra Messico e California. Della Calexico polverosa e ranchera sublimemente trascritta in quel documento leggendario e indimenticabile che è “The Black Light” (1998, Quarterstick) rimane ben poco... Leggi e ascolta...

Calexico - Algiers (2012)

Ci siamo spostati decisamente a nord rispetto alla latitudine originaria della cittadina di confine tra Messico e California. Della Calexico polverosa e ranchera sublimemente trascritta in quel documento leggendario e indimenticabile che è “The Black Light” (1998, Quarterstick) rimane ben poco. Ed in questi casi è veramente difficile riuscire a capire e spiegare le motivazioni e la bontà di intenti di una svolta tanto radicale...distorsioni.net/canali/dischi/…

Two babies died of starvation in Gaza due to Israel’s continuing blockade of vital aid. The deaths come as the US approved $30 million in funding for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. More than 500 Palestinians have been killed while trying to get food from its aid centres.

Violence begets violence, so many religions say. Americans should know. After all, the United States – a nation founded on Indigenous genocide, African enslavement and open rebellion against an imperial power to protect its wealthiest citizens – cannot help but be violent. What’s more, violence in the US is political, and the violence the country has carried out overseas over the generations has always been connected to its imperialist ambitions and racism. From the US bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites on June 21 to the everyday violence in rhetoric and reality within the US, the likes of President Donald Trump continue to stoke the violent impulses of a violence‑prone nation.

Political violence is quintessentially American

The US cannot claim innocence – political violence shaped its past and defines its present.

Announcement: Retirement of Readarr

We would like to announce that the Readarr project has been retired. This difficult decision was made due to a combination of factors: the project's metadata has become unusable, we no longer have the time to remake or repair it, and the community effort to transition to using Open Library as the source has stalled without much progress.

Third-party metadata mirrors exist, but as we're not involved with them at all, we cannot provide support for them. Use of them is entirely at your own risk. The most popular mirror appears to be rreading-glasses.

Without anyone to take over Readarr development, we expect it to wither away, so we still encourage you to seek alternatives to Readarr.

Key Points

• Effective Immediately: The retirement takes effect immediately. Please stay tuned for any possible further communications.
• Support Window: We will provide support during a brief transition period to help with troubleshooting non metadata related issues.
• Alternative Solutions: Users are encouraged to explore and adopt any other possible solutions as alternatives to Readarr.
• Opportunities for Revival: We are open to someone taking over and revitalizing the project. If you are interested, please get in touch.
• Gratitude: We extend our deepest gratitude to all the contributors and community members who supported Readarr over the years.

Thank you for being part of the Readarr journey. For any inquiries or assistance during this transition, please contact our team.

Sincerely,
The Servarr Team

Normalization between Damascus and Tel Aviv means that hundreds of thousands of people died and a stable nation was destroyed, while every ethnic/religious group turned on each other, all so that Israel could usurp more territory and deal a blow to the Palestinian resistance. There’s no way to sugar coat it.

As has always been the case, Palestine is the litmus test, and Damascus has so far failed it dramatically.

Almost 84,000 people died in Gaza between October 2023 and early January 2025 as a result of the Hamas–Israel war, estimates the first independent survey of deaths. More than half of the people killed were women aged 18–64, children or people over 65, reports the study, which was posted on the preprint server medRxiv last week1. It has not been peer reviewed.

Results align with other efforts to count the number of people killed amid the ongoing conflict.
