This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
I just spoke with Homeland Security to get more information and I will share when I learn more.
The University of Minnesota is an international destination for education and research. We have any number of students studying here with visas, and we need answers.

Musk doesn't seem worried that he and Trump threaten social and economic collapse. On the contrary, it appears that's his goal.
Musk swims in a tech-fascist ideology that believes democracy should be replaced by billionaire dictators — like himself.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Very moving @nhpr.bsky.social interview with a Jan 6er from Keene, NH, who rejected Trump’s pardon and sounds like he has grown tremendously in 4 years. “One thing I did not believe in was change before this experience…And now I believe change is necessary for survival.” www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...
"Every moment of my work life revolves around answering the question of how we capture attention. And it just so happens that the constant pursuit of others’ attention is no longer just for professionals like myself," @chrislhayes writes: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

Offering impunity for political violence is wildly dangerous
Musk comes from a family that moved to South Africa *for* the racism. He has repeatedly endorsed Great Replacement Theory in the US & Neo-Nazis of the AfD in Germany. He championed the rights of white nationalists and restored Nazi accounts to Twitter.
But I'm sure the Nazi salute was an accident.
"When conspiracy theories and nonsense cures are widely accepted, the evidence-based concepts of guilt and criminality vanish quickly too."

Appropriate mix of headlines. Climate change accelerates, while the business world, under pressure from US conservatives, abandons any attempt to stop it
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change
Enjoy adult governance. The lunatics will soon be in charge of the asylum.
Oh hell yes, let's absolutely get rid of the FDIC. Would love to have re learn all the lessons of the New Deal again.

Global sea level is now rising twice as fast as 30 years ago
Rising global temperatures are causing glaciers and ice sheets to melt more, adding more water to the oceans, which also expand as they warm
We caused this by burning coal, oil and gas, and deforestation
