My friend Joy Athanasiou is an immigration attorney. This man is her client. This cruelty is irredeemable. Abolish ICE.

After 13 months in an Aurora immigrant detention center, where he became reliant on a wheelchair as his health deteriorated, a Ugandan priest who has lived in Colorado for more than 25 years was released by federal immigration officials Tuesday.

This is absolutely horrible! A nonverbal student with special needs was walking to Santa Maria High School when ICE agents tackled him, restrained him, and left him with a broken wrist requiring surgery, according to witnesses and school officials.

Emiliano Andrade-Covarrubias has died at a GEO-owned for-profit concentration camp in Texas. DHS denied him life saving medication, including for heart disease after he complained of chest tightness and trouble breathing. Emiliano was a father, husband, son who deserved dignity and due process.

No person should be treated like this, let alone a US citizen. They have no right and no excuse.

ICE assaulted a US citizen, dragging him from his vehicle in front of his family and one-year-old daughter who were also inside the car in Donna Texas on Thursday morning.

Does arresting the wife of an enlisted man and mother of four US citizen children, a person who’s been here since she was 6 years old, make our country great again?

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. With @nancyayoussef.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

The price of greatness, I guess? 🤷🏽‍♀️

⛽️ Gas prices have now been above $4 for more days than ANY other year on record. Trump’s war with Iran has forced Americans to spend an extra $107 BILLION on gas alone — roughly $2,000 per household.

In a new paper out today in Science Advances with my USGS colleagues, we describe the climate and environment of the White Sands playa when early humans walked on it 23,000 years ago. We also have an even tighter chronology with a lock to the Greenland ice core! news.arizona.edu/news/footpri...

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

Spot on. I'm so tired of these dudes.

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm-bomb

The year before Election 2024, I was helping run UCLA’s DEI Office in LA—and siccing my AuDHD savant 🧠 on analyzing not just Project 2025’s substance, but its impact on my nation. I predicted (not really a prediction) all these horrors. Most accused me of trying to scare ppl into voting for Harris.

Guardian US@us.theguardian.com

ICE is now lying in wait outside convenience stores, or at busy intersections. Agents are arresting people at international airports. Local police and sheriffs, deputized by the federal government, are detaining immigrants during traffic stops. ICE is now detaining more immigrants than ever before.

11/ Even Navatek’s executives were surprised at how far their money went in D.C. “It was eye-opening for me, frankly. ‘Oh my God, all of it is for sale. It’s all for sale,’” former executive Eric Schiff said.

Good. They should have done this when he tried to kick out AP. But I'll take it.

BREAKING: TV pool will not be providing coverage of presidential events until further notice b/c of CNN's ban, pool chair and FOX News Washington Bureau Chief Bryan Boughton said. It's effectively a boycott by the fellow members — ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX: www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

What the heck?!

This will make it nearly impossible to file habeas petitions, because attorneys won’t even know what federal district their client has been moved to to stage for their removal. Something like a third of all people in ICE custody. apnews.com/article/ice-...

Elizabeth Warren, AOC, and other members of Congress have introduced a bill to ban private equity funds from owning or controlling medical practices. This is a big deal. Here’s what you need to know about the shady private equity industry and how it operates.

America just recorded its hottest summer ever, beating the Dust Bowl record from 1936. Despite that, the U.S. still doesn't classify extreme heat as a natural disaster. Extreme heat is deadly, and communities need real relief.

These are servants of the American people, paid by us, being ordered to break our laws to soothe the feelings and cater to the delusions of the president. This can not be allowed to stand.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.
