There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

This article opens with a 3-year-old forced to represent herself in court. We live in a fundamentally sick country.

Holes is an understatement. “A federal judge's blistering 233-page ruling…outlines in detail what the judge called repeated lies by Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino about clashes between agents and protesters.” DHS lies every bit as much as 47 does. www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

Frank Sinatra almost got into a fist fight with Bing Crosby on the set of High Society to defend the dignity of Louis Armstrong, who was added to the production due to Sinatra’s advocacy. It’s not hard to find PSAs for tolerance that Sinatra filmed!

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night. Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim. Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen. Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

I'm old enough to remember when MAGA raised $700K for the white woman who proudly called a 5-year-old boy the N word on camera. That was in May. Even then, establishment reeks and "centrists" refused to use the word "Racism" to describe MAGA supporters Here we are. www.kptv.com/2025/05/05/m...

For the first time, the Kennedy Center Awards were presented in the tiny Oval Office instead of the Kennedy Center For Performing Arts. Donald used his now-vulgar Oval Office for the ceremony to avoid the embarrassment of TV audiences seeing an almost empty theater.

2/ What color was his shirt? If it was white, he was obviously trying to surrender. Even if it wasn't white, maybe it was the only thing he could wave. What if it was blue? We killed a man because the flag he was waving wasn't the right color?

There has been no debate here among constitutional scholars, historians, political scientists, anyone with a pulse really. Any telling you that this very straightforward point, one that has been universally accepted for a century and a half, is now an "abstruse" issue is just a liar and a hack.

I finally read that Oklahoma state essay rightwingers have embraced as a cause. I'm an English prof. I, too, would have failed it. If I was a conservative Christian, I think I'd be even more offended by this student trying to use faith as a cover for not doing the work.

You can hear Jose scream in excruciating pain as an ICE vehicle runs over his foot while he's being detained. His family says Jose is a good man, with no criminal record, who works in roofing. He needs to be released from detention to receive appropriate medical care.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for 24 hours—mock Somali woman's hijab & touch her inappropriately. "She was pleading with them—but they ended up sexually assaulting her," said cousin. Agents had jumped out of 2 cars & zip tied her hands while she was running errands at the mall. Elk River, Minnesota
