I regret to inform my blusky brothers and sisters that Kevin @reuning.bsky.social is snitchin on your poll skeeting. Do we have our ideological re-education camps up and running yet? You had one job Darth @darthbluesky.bsky.social kevinreuning.com/blog/polling...

Naguib Mahfouz literally won the Nobel Prize. In Literature.

What's striking to me are the rules of engagement and the methodology of action here, which more or less is predicated on burying liberal delusions about "debate" or the "marketplace of ideas". The rules were ultimately very simple: amplify your own message and suppress your opponent's.

Incredible

Social-emotional learning for kids in schools has been a massive success

Some cities it's just not worth fucking with

Matthew Yglesias continues to say that talking about ICE and excessive force in immigration enforcement helps Republicans. He is obviously wrong about this and refuses to acknowledge the data. Way past time for everyone to update their priors on this.

The Latest Wave of Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Is Again Being Felt in Schools www.the74million.org/article/the-...

A new report on truancy in D.C. says that some Latino students are truant because the increased presence of ICE, other federal agents, and National Guard had "negative impact on their families." One kid said he was "genuinely afraid to step outside" after his dad was deported.

Targeted universalism will also be a key policy design feature if the Trump Admin’s heinous public charge rules move forward

I have a NEW WEBSITE to provide media, advocates and policymakers a summary of what's known about the economic impacts of ICE activity in the second Trump administration! Please check it out, share widely, and lmk what else would be helpful here. theiceeffect.org

Some personal news:

For almost 2 years now, DHS has repeatedly told me they're not detaining U.S. citizens It's simply not true So @propublica.org published the receipts: a searchable database of the 500+ citizens detained by immigration agents during this Trump administration projects.propublica.org/american-cit...

Today we launched a tool tracking immigration enforcement against children based on our analysis of data obtained by @deportationdata.bsky.social, including: ICE child arrests, detentions, and deportations: www.themarshallproject.org/2026/10/08/c...

An ICE agent on the scene of a shooting in upper Manhattan on Thursday has repeatedly been accused in federal court of unlawful arrests and using force during arrests in New York and Minneapolis, a WIRED investigation finds.

An ICE officer shot and wounded a man today around 4:00 in Manhattan. Exact details are still coming in. I'm not seeing any further information other than that the man is at a hospital now.

I would like praise & thank Colorado state Sens. / Reps. @senadorajulie.bsky.social, Mike Weissman, @elizabethvelasco.bsky.social & @replorenagarcia.bsky.social (& staff) for writing a perfect Bill Summary: clearly narrates current status and what would change! leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb25-276

This is appalling. Apparently some of the people ICE is arresting at airports have not violated ANY law; their period of lawful status has been extended, yet ICE appears to have old data and is arresting people based on stale information.

NEW FROM ME: The Great Delegalization. There are now (almost certainly far more than) 1M immigrants who were protected from deportation on Jan 20, 2025, and no longer are. It’s the result of a problem that’s been building for 30 years—& now only Congress can fix. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

You're paying $2,358 in federal taxes for Trump's mass deportations. @epi.org 's new calculator shows what your community could have instead www.epi.org/deportation-...

This paper shows that immigration enforcement can _increase_ crime. Undocumented immigrants already have the lowest crime rate, but tough-on-immigration policy makes immigrants less likely to report crime. So immigration enforcement worsens the problem it was ostensibly meant to solve

We are a city of immigrants, and our long tradition of offering safe haven to all, as well as our laws, reflect that. To every immigrant New Yorker living in fear today: you belong here. And anyone who wants to come for you will have to come through your neighbors and fellow New Yorkers first.

The promise of New York City is inscribed on the Statue of Liberty: this place would welcome anyone seeking refuge or a better life.

Powerful visualization of horrifying conditions of confinement in ICE's holding room cells, based on testimony of brave detainees who came forward to sue ICE and challenge abuses at 26 Federal Plaza. Great reporting by @douglasmac.bsky.social as usual! wapo.st/3R6bdmr

I am formally proposing a nationwide moratorium on calling something “punk rock” or “the new punk rock” for individuals unable to document participation in ANY of the (multiple!) punk scenes. I am 100% sure this is one of those

IMPORTANT to know that the vast majority of Haitians with TPS entered the country legally at ports of entry, not illegally. The majority have NEVER violated the law. The admin stripped their status by breaking the law, but today SCOTUS says courts can't do anything about that.

Sam Alito: It is the worst kind of discrimination to create majority-minority congressional districts and so we are going to kill the Voting Rights Act. Also Sam Alito: There is nothing we can do if the president cancels legal status because he thinks the United States is a white country.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court rules 6-3 in favor of the Trump admin on Temporary Protected Status, blocking the lawsuit on jurisdictional grounds, allowing DHS to strip over 350,000 people of legal status even though they utterly failed to follow the required legal procedures.

NEW: The death rate for people detained by U.S. immigration authorities has more than doubled since President Trump returned to office and began a mass deportation campaign. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

well i'm just a simple country web developer, but if *i* were in charge of building AUTOCORRECT i would be sure that i was not changing a word that is CORRECTLY SPELLED and IN THE DICTIONARY into its ANTONYM but that's just little ol me. i'm sure i don't understand megacorp engineering.

On Thursday afternoon, members of the DOE, UFT, along with immigration organizations reps and parents, held a rally at Tweed Courthouse, urging the DOE to update its ICE protocols for migrant students or the children of migrants. #nyc

Oh heyyyy check me out on @npr.org Marketplace's Make Me Smart! I talk about why Trump's Mass Deportation is harming the labor market, harming US-born workers, and why the false narratives about mass deportations persist Make Me Smart www.marketplace.org/shows/shows/...

Confidential memos by Supreme Court justices, obtained by The New York Times, show how they decided to bypass time-tested procedures and create the modern “shadow docket,” a rushed and secretive new way of doing business. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

i spent months alongside some really dope, smart colleagues working on this and i hope you'll give it a read. we go in depth talking to tons of judges and analyzing data from the immigration courts to understand how the current administration has reshaped the system to align to their agenda.

ICE is a rogue agency with no regards for the rule of law or public safety. They enter our homes, schools, and hospitals to separate families and detain innocent people. Colluding with ICE means colluding with Trump’s authoritarianism. We must pass New York For All.

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame. 13,000 third country deportees so far. Many were ordered deported decades or even generations earlier, but no admin previously would have considered something as inhumane as this as a means of carrying out a removal.

BALTIMORE—In surprise testimony in federal court Thursday, an immigration officer revealed that more than 100 asylum seekers were wrongfully deported in violation of a court-ordered settlement agreement in a long-running case that has gotten national attention. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/exclusi...

BREAKING: Federal judge blocks new DHS policy that would allow arrest of thousands of legal refugees. "The new policy turns the refugees’ American Dream into a dystopian nightmare," Judge Tunheim wrote. Tonight, at Law Dork:

This refugee wanted liberty in America, but got death The refuge promised when Nurul Amin Shah Alam and family came to America on Christmas Eve 2024 became a Kafkaesque nightmare - a police encounter gone wrong, then left for dead by Trump's CBP goons My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/alam...

BREAKING: Columbia President Claire Shipman says DHS agents entered a residential buliding this morning and detained a student. "Our understanding at this time is that the federal agents made misrepresentations to gain entry to the building to search for a 'missing person.'"
