kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

And this is why the attitude, to everything this administration does, should be "Fuck you, make me."
In the NYT right now, from a Justice Dept lawyer: “I will tell you right now that Columbia has not in my opinion — and the opinion of the Department of Justice — has not cleaned up their act,” Mr. Terrell said. “They’re not even close, not even close to having those funds unfrozen.”
"acceding to the ... demands is not going to restore the funding." From @danifriedrich.bsky.social in @chronicle.com

every single protest i attend there's a couple 9000 year old white people waving signs they painted themselves and offering everyone homemade trail mix bro old people love to protest chuck schumer is just weak.
Also: "If I were your age" is funny, because I've attended plenty of protests, and there's not actually an age limit on them. Nobody's stopping Chuck Schumer from protesting but Chuck Schumer

Worse, it reduces mass deportation to a problem for capitalism. Instead of neighbors, friends and family members we are talking about the price of cereal.
Some liberal/resist types go so far it’s blatantly racist w/stereotypes about needing immigrants to cut the grass and clean the toilets.

A conclusion I'm coming to is that if two people don't agree that every life is equally valuable, there's no point in having discussions about geopolitical events. Everything is cherry-picking. Everything is trivia. Everything is barely worth speaking of if we can't hammer out our essential values

Here’s all the nonsense Ohio Republicans are pulling to try to stop the popular abortion ballot measure—it’s so much more than the 27,000 canceled voter registrations. Voting ends in one week on November 7
All the Desperate Tactics Ohio Republicans Are Using Against the Abortion Vote
Issue 1 would codify the right to an abortion in the state constitution and it's polling well, so conservatives are gaslighting Ohioans on what it means.
