The Vulnerability of Black Immigrants - The American Prospect Black immigrants are more likely to be deported, in part because of their contact with the criminal justice system.

Black immigrants make up 5.4% of the undocumented population in the U.S., but around 20% of immigrants facing removal. Race is a factor in immigration enforcement just as it's a factor in criminal justiceβ€”in fact, the two are related. Great piece by Naomi Bethune:

We must note that all the condemnation of Tucker Carlson platforming Nick Fuentes has been about anti-Semitism and there has been an alarming and revealing silence around his anti-Black racism and white supremacy. When the head of the Heritage Foundation apologized, he only cited anti-Semitism.

If the Voting Rights Act Falls The Supreme Court appears ready to hobble the landmark civil-rights law. What does that mean for Black voters, democracy, and control of Congress?

Editorializing here just a bit: this is an obscene overreaction to what is likely gonna remain a peaceful protest. A vigil for those taken by ICE is planned for later, and barring LAPD aggression earlier today, there hasn’t been a single issue all day

I also got the missing apricot jam email! The raspberry jam was great, so I'm looking forward to the replacements. I did get the wine though, which means 3 more stickers for my houseplant collection. So fancy!

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts A staffer for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency whose access to U.S. Treasury payment systems was approved by a federal judge on Thursday has links to a deleted social-media account that...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a β€œeugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, β€œYou could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."

He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have β€˜write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.

When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors β€” remember who voted yes.

Demagogues, oligarchs, and literal teenage boys are tearing apart our government. They are fueled by Silicon Valley’s dream of a monarchist network state and blood and soil white nationalism and every day they are in power means years of work required to fix it.
