I cannot overemphasize that Marjorie Taylor Greene, Carlson, and Fuentes see a 2028 path to victory that involves building an isolationist populist coalition that traffics heavily in antisemitism and exploits existing negative sentiment against Israel.

We have to be SHARP on the left right now.

On this day in history 31 years ago the late great talent Graham Greene appeared on Royal Canadian Air Farce in one of my favorite skits as a Customs and Immigration official interviewing the French explorer Jacques Cartier.

I know people can’t get to Prague for the exhibition, but if you are able to buy a ticket it will help towards the success of the show & the possibility of it being able to go to other countries. supporting the costume exhibition as another way to #SaveWoT #WoTSkies

I cannot express how important it is for anyone going through a secured checkpoint like TSA to make sure thier phone is in BFU (Before First Unlock) mode. To enter this state: reboot your phone and don't unlock it.

In BFU mode all data is encrypted and your phone requires a passcode to unlock.
I was just asked for my phone (to swipe the outside for whatever) for the 1st time during a “random” TSA extra screening for a domestic flight - i told them i didn’t consent to a search of the phone, made sure there were no notifications visible & it was locked and didn’t let it out of my sight…

Alma is a disabled activist and the daughter of a US Navy vet.

She was attending her monthly immigration check in with her lawyer when ICE grabbed her.

I wrote about her and other disabled people being abused at the hands of ICE.

Their stories are often untold or quickly forgotten:
Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities
Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

I urge members of the legal profession to realize that prosecuting individuals who seek to overturn the constitutional order is not "retaliation" in any normatively significant sense.

i can’t believe @sfdirewolf.bsky.social is gone. she was a force of nature. she lived twice as much as the next person, as proven by the fact that every other person i follow, across wildly different industries, knew her, and is posting about her tonight. what a loss. i don’t know what else to say.

Yep, the 10,000 limit on U Visas is so patently absurd. There are people who will have their application for a U Visa approved this year who won't get their visa until the 2040s.
it's so perverse to have visa number limits on humanitarian protections like these

"oh sorry, you're already in the US but you can't get protection because of the arbitrary magical number a senate intern dreamt up as being applicable one day and suggested"

U visas, Ts, SIJS, it's so evil

Yes, that is as Kafkaesque as it seems; the BIA is saying that a child adjudicated to be abused, abandoned, and neglected, who has already been approved for a status that will permit the child to get a green card, should nonetheless be deported instead — because of backlogs outside of their control.

If anyone needs any further context on how weird immigration law is, humanitarian visas for abused children are considered "employment-based".
This backlog is less about streamlining and more about how Congress set visa numbers in 1990, and has made effectively ZERO changes to this system in the last 35 years.

In 2000, when Congress created SIJS, they linked it to the visa system; so you can win SIJS and still wait 5 years for a visa.
And no one talks about ways to make things move along more smoothly or how to streamline immigration procedures so backlogs aren’t so crazy and people can do things easier, more efficiently and legally. They just skip that part and think they can deport people for the foreseeable future.
