BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.
‘I escaped a Russian prison — only to end up in an American jail’
Dozens of Russian dissidents have been expelled from the US and forcibly returned to Russia with the co-operation of immigration authorities

This is the most disgusting thing I have EVER READ.
Fuck Trump and Fuck Putin too.

Also, if this ends with anything other than Karoline Leavitt becoming unhirable for anybody but the KKK or North Korea, we will keep doing shit like this. And don't take German denazification as an example because we let former nazis live out their lives in peace. The lesson must be rigorous,

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

A little bit of excitement from last night. The northern lights very rarely ever make it down into central California. Had to go out and see what I could capture.

Scientists discover humans 'have seventh sense' called 'remote touch'
We're told we have five senses – sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch – but now scientists at a London university have discovered a mysterious new ability they call 'remote touch'

BBC Trump row: Pro-Israel bias over Gaza is the real scandal

I bet China isn't paying anywhere near $100k for each of the 600,000 Trump is bringing in. Just some crypto in his private account.
He attacks science and higher ed, driving top talent to flee, then complains we don't have talent and must bring in immigrants with h1b visas that he's charging $100,000 a pop for.
He's ok with immigration so long as he can exploit and profit from it.
