Mina Bakhshi, Haniya Tavasoli, and Rabia Hussain enjoyed freedoms in Afghanistan, pursuing education and work. Joining Ascend, a nonprofit teaching leadership and rock climbing, allowed them to explore their country's mountains. When the Taliban seized power in August 2021, Ascend became their only chance to escape the restrictive regime.

As Ascend women resettled globally with host families, Yosemite Search and Rescue members Merryn Venugopal and Michelle Pellette invited them to Yosemite. There, they found safe reunion, solace in the climbing community, and a vital connection to home while building new lives.

Chevron's case relies on Alberto Guerra, a disgraced former judge paid substantially for his claim that plaintiffs bribed a trial judge. Despite Guerra's admitted corruption, removal from the bench, and lack of evidence, his testimony was credited. This raises serious concerns about Chevron's efforts to undermine justice.

Donny Rico's series, including Episode 4 "T'anks Judge," highlights Chevron's attempts to evade accountability for massive Amazon pollution. Facing a major loss in Ecuador, Chevron sought favorable courts, finding U.S. Federal Judge Lewis Kaplan. Kaplan initiated a RICO case, assigned it to his courtroom, and ruled for Chevron, despite his decision being legally and factually flawed, lacking jurisdiction, and demonstrating clear bias.

Kaplan's ruling defied appellate courts, refused a jury, and denied crucial evidence to Ecuadorian villagers. This "mockery of justice" is under appeal and widely expected to be overturned.
