i do miss the era where i could follow local govt meetings on the other site. That doesn't seem to exist anymore, both because there is no more news coverage and no more site.

We put up billboards urging Miami-Dade’s mayor and officials to file a lawsuit against the Everglades detention camp. Florida state officials tried (and failed) to intervene and get the company to take them down.
Outfront Media took down the digital billboards but started re-airing them after deciding the complaint wasn’t warranted, an immigrant-rights group said.
Highway ads against ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ went dark for a day. Who is to blame?

The site proposed for this was originally intended to be a huge airport but construction was halted after public outcry due to the environmental impact to the Everglades. Now they want to turn it into a 1,000 bed concentration camp. Very bleak stuff.
Florida officials, including the state’s Attorney General who was just found to be in contempt of court, want to turn a piece of the Everglades into the state's largest immigration detention facility.

Devastating. Apparently discrimination isn’t discriminatory. RIP what was left of the equal protection clause
🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

“we care more sincerely and deeply about anti-Semitism than those nefarious Jews” is one of the most common and acceptable forms of anti-Semitism in American discourse
An appropriate way to understand Project Esther, and Trump's "anti-semitism" purge, is that it is predominantly driven by right-wing Christian nationalists attacking institutions they dislike, even if it also includes attacking Jewish students and groups.
