Something that rarely gets mentioned enough in news on polling is that public opinion shifts substantially in favor of immigrants when real situations are described. Majority favor deporting generally, but that number drops if question says no other crime involved or that it would separate a family.

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

Legal permanent resident of the U.S., showing up to apply for citizenship, with no allegations of criminal activity, is arrested and detained by masked police. This is fascism, and that is not a word I use lightly. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/n...

The Justice Department spent the weekend defying a federal court, and this morning Trump and his top officials revealed that they will defy the Supreme Court, refusing to take ANY steps to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El Salvador.

Oh my god. The interviewer on Dec. 19: "I want DOGE to exist in Canada." Awesome. Great stuff. So stoked to see Poilievre (and potentially Carney, Jesus) sitting down for this "not a political podcast" interview. Stinks of broligarchy! More from @jenstden.bsky.social: thetyee.ca/News/2025/02...

In the past eight months, 3 cases of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) have been diagnosed in one Oregon county; 2 of them have died. CJD is the human form of mad cow disease. It’s caused by prions and it’s not known how they developed it. CJD is 100% fatal. There is no treatment.

Here's Trump saying to Bukele that "homegrown criminals are next" and talking about how El Salvador will need to build "about five more places."

This is a lie. Here's how Mr. Abrego gets back. 1. Bukele releases him from CECOT. 2. The US gives him humanitarian parole as part of the court order requiring them to facilitate his return. 3. His family buys him a plane ticket. 4. He flies home. THIS ISN'T HARD.

This is horrifying and should, in any reasonable world, lead to immediate impeachment. On a hot mic, before the media arrived, starting around 7:15 on the time index, Trump tells Bukele he is going to start sending "homegrown criminals" to El Salvadoran gulags. This is fascism.

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

As I warned repeatedly last July, the foolhardy cancellation of the world class and inexpensive Ontario wastewater surveillance program was a mistake. I cautioned that we would be less prepared as new infectious disease risks rose during the winter. #measles #H5N1 www.cbc.ca/news/health/...

"Trump administration officials have discussed possibly denaturalizing and deporting activists and other individuals whom they label as having committed so-called 'fraud' on their applications for citizenship by subsequently supporting what Team Trump decides are 'pro-terrorist' causes or groups."

UPDATE: ICE has awarded a new contract worth up to $3.8 billion for the company to operate a migrant detention camp on Fort Bliss — its largest contract yet. It's the first time ICE is moving ahead with plans to detain thousands of people arrested on U.S. military bases in tents before deportation.

Don't overlook this: Trump is leaving Abrego Garcia to rot in a foreign gulag even though the admin can always bring him back and retry him for deportation in a lawful way. That they won't do this shows their case against him is nonsense. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1939...

watching kirsten gillibrand refuse to condemn andrew fucking cuomo, muttering about how "the voters should decide," it feels all too correct when donegan describes today's mainstream "liberalism" as a movement "too afraid to be unpopular."
