The administration says he "turned himself in" to the Border Patrol and told them he was a Mexican who crossed the border illegally.
I interviewed Hermosillo.
He says the government is lying.

Last week, President Trump removed key protections from a marine protected area that's home to coral reefs, whales, sea turtles, and countless fish. My op-ed for @us.theconversation.com explains why that's bad and we should not do that.

Trump is stripping protections from marine protected areas – why that’s a problem for fishing’s future, and for whales, corals and other ocean life
America’s marine protected areas help fish populations thrive. Trump’s plan to open them to industrial fishing may ultimately harm the fishing industry itself.

I’m still trying to stock up on ostomy & other medical supplies before the tariffs kick in.
I need to change my ostomy appliance every 4 days, or else my skin begins to break down & get dissolved by my own digestive acids.

If you’d like to help me stock up on ostomy supplies in preparation for these BS tariffs (all based in Europe, I believe) please send me Amazon gift cards to:

This is going to be SO BAD, esp for disabled & chronically ill folks.

"Less than 40% of all borrowers are current on their student loans, department officials said." Yep; this is gonna work out great.
