BREAKING: Harvard AAUP & the nat'l AAUP have jointly filed a lawsuit & TRO to block the Trump admin from demanding that Harvard restrict speech & undermine academic freedom or else lose $8.7 billion in federal funds. This action challenges the Trump admin's misuse of funds for coercion. Stay tuned.

NEW: The Board of Immigration Appeals has been formally reduced from 28 members to 15 members, an action which "coincidentally" purges every single Board member appointed during the Biden administration. This comes as the BIA faces record backlogs — which will now get much worse.

Last month, ICE announced that it had arrested 48 people in a sweep in New Mexico. But local & state officials, and immigrants-rights advocates, can’t get any information about who was arrested or where they are. What actually happened? My latest: www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Up to 795 students who have had their visa revoked due to political activism, previous crimes or unidentified reasons. Follow the latest updates here: www.insidehighered.com/news/global/... @insidehighered.com

Over 650 known cases so far, and most have nothing to do with pro-Palestinian advocacy. The admin seems to be engaged in a breakneck effort to kick out every foreign student who has had even the most minor interaction with the police possible, including for TRAFFIC CITATIONS and JAYWALKING tickets.

Hours ago, @politico.com revealed that DOGE is working with DHS on automating mass deportation efforts — likely explaining why many US citizens, green card holders, and even a Canadian (in Canada) got threatening emails last night terminating “your parole” and telling them to leave the US in 7 days.

Trump’s administration has falsely declared more than 6,300 immigrants dead—adding the names and ss numbers of thousands of living, breathing people to the Social Security Administration’s Death Master File. They will no longer be able to access their bank accounts or use their credit cards.

The Trump administration is planning to declare legal migrants dead on the Social Security Administration’s Death Master File. This is an outrageous abuse of power. It will not only create extreme hardship, but kill people.

Starting tomorrow (April 11), as many as 3.2M US immigrants must register with the government or face possible criminal charges or detention & deportation under a February executive order from President Trump Our experts explain who needs to register: www.migrationpolicy.org/article/trum...

As of today, several million immigrants in the US—incl. some with legal status—must register with the federal government or face possible consequences It’s the latest iteration of a security authority previously used after 9/11 and during the Cold War era www.migrationpolicy.org/article/trum...

BREAKING: Judge Paula Xinis issues an order following tonight's Supreme Court ruling, ordering the government to "take all available steps to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia to the United States as soon as possible." [1/2] Background at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/breaking-s...

#BREAKING: Supreme Court holds that Trump administration must attempt to “facilitate” the return of Wilmer Armando Abrego García from El Salvador, but remands to the district court to sort out exactly what the administration can and must do going forward: s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Do not listen to anything RFK says about autism. Here are books and resources I highly recommend. As a clinical genetic counselor and researcher but mostly as a mom with an amazing autistic son (who thinks RFK is ableist and a eugenicist).

RFK Jr: "By September we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we will be able to eliminate those exposures."

The U.S. maternal mortality rate increased 27% between 2018 and 2022, a new NIH study finds.

The person who responded to me suggesting they might have meant IP was correct.

Thanks for clarifying a misunderstanding that's circulating @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social Foreign national is not deportable/excludable for past, current, expected beliefs, statements, or associations protected by First Amendment Unless they would compromise a compelling US foreign policy interest

BREAKING: Federal judge in New York issues a temporary restraining order (and certifies a limited class) barring the Trump administration from removing anyone in the Southern District of New York from the U.S. under Trump's Alien Enemies Act proclamation or transferring them out of S.D.N.Y.

UPDATED REPORT: Multiple federal judges temporarily halt Trump's Alien Enemies Act removals. The ACLU filed cases in New York and Texas challenging the administration's use of the wartime power for deportations. Judges responded quickly. Now at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/aclu-bring...

I really enjoyed this conversation with @jenrubin.bsky.social about what’s been going on with the Alien Enemy Act and Abrego García cases at #SCOTUS:

New: Trump is calling on agency heads to use Loper Bright and other recent SCOTUS rulings to undo agency regulations without notice and comment @courthousenews.bsky.social

"This looks bad"’ A Harvard infectious disease researcher is targeted in President Trump’s review

Mexico reports its first death from H5N1 bird flu as a 3-year-old girl. Someone died in the country from the H5N2 strain last year.

The Trump administration has opened thousands of acres of land in Nevada and New Mexico to oil and gas drilling, geothermal development and hard-rock mining. The move reverses protections that President Biden enacted during his final weeks in office.
