Cutting people’s health care is murder.
Hello! I’m the reporter who has been tracking citizens detained by immigration agents. And last night, I noticed something: A lot of them were at the State of the Union, including a number of whom I’ve written about.
Their stories should be known:
Border Patrol released Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a 56 yo man, nearly blind with serious medical conditions, at "an old address & his family had since moved" in Buffalo, NY in the winter. "His family was not initially notified." He was found dead. @news4buffalo.bsky.social

It's not a time for speeches or hand-wringing but for collective action at the state level. This will not end with Minnesota.
FFS LET TRANS PEOPLE LIVE THEIR LIVES IN PEACE
I can’t believe this is real
These are “low enrollment” majors but the classes are regularly at capacity. They changed the funding structure a few years ago here, switching the allocation from course enrollments to majors then blamed these departments for a structural, top-down change. This is entirely a political choice.
love when democrats talk about kitchen table issues as if trans people and immigrants don’t have kitchen tables 🙃

There’s a reason why Homegirl Café’s chilaquiles are “famous”.

Last week, my mother took me and my kids to see the school where, 60 years ago, she was among the first wave of Black students to integrate a previously all-White school. We wanted to remind my kids that Black history is not just famous people in textbooks, it is often the people right next to you.
One would think that this would merit an emergency convening of all Blue state governors, Attorneys generals and Congressional representatives. It's a declaration of war on one state which means they'll do it to others too.
"Fuck ICE"

Conservatives spent years complaining about ”safe-spaces” and “liberal snowflakes” only to turn around and show they are absolutely terrified of ideas they don’t like (“racism is bad” “gender is fluid”) and willing to use state power to avoid the slightest discomfort.
The snowiest of flakes.
Sex pest solidarity.
Concerned about ICE's $45 billion plan to convert warehouses into immigration detention centers? This is what they'll look like inside. From ICE's plan for the Social Circle, GA facility. Each little dot: a person. www.socialcirclega.gov/home/showpub...
Unfortunately if this has followed the path of universities acquiescing in advance and paying bribes, it is often the lawyers who are the ones advocating for it. The role of legal counsel in undermining democracy to avoid lawsuits is an overlooked aspect of this move toward fascism.
My mother requested a real ID twice and was denied. The second time I was with her and it was because her birth certificate is from Puerto Rico and included two surnames instead of the one maiden name listed on her marriage certificate. This policy will systematically disenfranchise women.
The overwhelming consensus of the research done on bilingual education indicates its positive social and academic effects.
This new policy means that if students find that empirical claim controversial it either needs to be eliminated or balanced with xenophobic lies.

"These watered-down ICE policy reforms do not serve as a break from the Democrats’ years-long rightward shift on immigration, but a repackaging of immigration enforcement to maintain the status quo."

“A tenth of a percent might seem paltry, but library budgets are on a tightrope (they nearly always are) and we’ve seen during previous funding deliberations that libraries need to quickly cut services and hours in response to even the smallest budgeting fluctuations.” lithub.com/new-york-may...
"The FBI's source...claimed in their testimony that Epstein — a wealth manager — "made his money from charging his clients fees to hide their money offshore."
uh, didn't have "PEOPLE has reached out to the Kremlin for comment." on my bingo card. but joke's on me I guess

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.
"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

As of today, NELP has laid off nearly two-thirds of staff union members in a single month, effectively gutting critical programmatic work.
We call for accountability, in the hope that under new leadership, NELP will have a chance to thrive again: nelpstaffassociation.medium.com/nelp-staff-a...
