A Purple Heart veteran who self-deported to South Korea last week after being targeted with detention and deportation says that he believes his diagnosed PTSD has worsened since arriving in a country he hasn’t been to in decades.
A Purple Heart vet who self-deported to Korea says he feels his PTSD is now worse
In June, ICE agents gave Sae Joon Park an ankle monitor and told him he would be deported over old charges related to drug possession and bail jumping if he didn’t leave in weeks.

New research finds that across four countries, more people agree than disagree with misinformation about electric vehicles and conspiracist mentality is the strongest predictor of this agreement.

Let me be clear: The President does not have the authority to attack Iran. Only the Congress has the constitutional power to declare war.

President Trump must work to end this conflict — not drag us further into it.

It’s not just Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Law Dork can also report that O.C.G., a gay man sent into hiding when the Trump administration deported him to Mexico, has been brought back to the U.S.

Read my Law Dork report on Trump’s deportations — and the challenges they have faced:
Where are the people the Trump administration has deported?
The Trump administration's aggressive immigration deportation efforts often have been carried out illegally. What has happened to the people at the center of the cases?

Call your Senators and let them know not to pass the Big Bullshit Bill!
Also a repeat of the idea that because of events in L.A., Congress should pass the wildly unpopular omnibus bill that cuts Medicaid, SNAP, energy credits, and so on.
“Stand with ICE”—as if it’s an oppressed group deserving of solidarity 🤡. This is a simulacrum of leftist rhetoric, appropriated by the extreme right.
