There's no reason to move him to Louisiana since there's a facility in New Jersey. This is just to make sure his 8 month pregnant wife cannot go see him. Shame on everyone running cover for this. It doesn't matter how you feel about the issue, doing this to someone without due process is immoral.
UPDATE: Mahmoud Khalil is being held by ICE in the Jena/LaSalle Detention Facility in Louisiana, per ICE detainee tracker
Khalil was detained Saturday night from his New York apartment building

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.
Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.
His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the Trump Administration disappeared Mahmoud Khalil in order to capitalize on the liberal/left split on Gaza.
You either step up to defend people and protect rights or you don’t. This is another crossroads and I pray people see it for what it is.

Whether it's volunteering at a local school or taking soup to a sick neighbor, improving the welfare of others can also improve our own physical and mental health, a sizable body of research shows.

Shoutout to the folks out there who take the time to flag cops, speed traps, etc on navigation apps. A truly selfless act of solidarity with your fellow citizens lol.

There were 3 Senate resolutions today about different batches of arms sales to Israel. Yes votes = disapproval of the transactions basically.
Especially proud of my senators today. Ossoff 2/3, Warnock 3/3 Yes votes 🙌🏽

An absolute no brainer for DNC chair is @benwikler.bsky.social . Thanks to what Ben built at WisDems, when the country swung ~6 points to the right this cycle, Wisconsin only swung 1.5 points to the right, while actually *adding* seats in the state legislature and holding onto Tammy Baldwin's seat.

Here’s how I’m thinking about BS vs X right now: a few contextual points and how I see myself using each.
1) This is a super clean and functional app with a seemingly solid algo so far.
2) For at least a while, it’s being picked up by mainstream entities and left to center users.
