Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.

Talking to my dad in LA this afternoon about the ICE raids that happened in the area yesterday. He is so enraged, he can’t formulate words—and he can’t seem to understand why Americans aren’t connecting the dots that the power to disappear immigrants grants the power to disappear everyone else.

I've reported on a woman in federal immigration custody forced to give birth next to a trash can. Reproductive injustice is a natural byproduct of how CBP and ICE have been allowed to operate.

A father screams for his child from a tiny interview room within a basement waiting room inside LA federal building. The space is not a holding area. No food. No water. No diapers. Those initially detained include a 2-year-old US citizen and a woman with high-risk pregnancy.

Shoutout to Whitney Plantation, who has always BANNED WEDDINGS at their location and allowed the entire facility and its grounds to be an indoor and outdoor museum. It also houses the genealogical records for over 100,000 enslaved people. You can search for your loved ones in its archives.

The only people laundering the idea that Republicans care about the deficit at this point are liberals trying to make sensible appeals. They don't even try anymore and haven't for years.

GOOD NEWS! Moderna’s combination COVID/influenza vaccine candidate mRNA-1083 has OUTPERFORMED the current standalone vaccines for BOTH viruses in a large (8000+) Phase III trial. A combination vaccine would make it easier for people to get vaccinated against COVID and influenza at the same time. 🧪🧵⬇️

NEW: Mahmoud Khalil's wife gave birth to their child without him after ICE denied their request to let him be present. “This was a purposeful decision by ICE to make me, Mahmoud, and our son suffer,” Dr. Abdalla said. “My son and I should not be navigating his first days on earth without Mahmoud."

Shout out to Lodge Cast Iron's lifetime warranty. The bottom of my 6-quart dutch oven developed a small chip after four years of continual use, so they're sending me a brand new oven in the same colorway for free. This is a Le Creuset-level lifetime warranty for 1/5th the cost. 🥳

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns. Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity. It’s been the plan for decades.

Because I'm not in contact with most of my family, gift-giving holidays look different now than they did in early adulthood. But I discovered an unexpected perk of wedding planning: receiving registry gifts captures the feeling of those long-lost birthdays & Christmases. 🥹 Full of bubbly love & joy
