Trump’s ICE raids have reduced the employment rate of US-born male workers, according to a new study. The study also found that employers have not increased wages to attract US workers. Hello? Not only is Trump’s deportation agenda patently cruel, it’s also terrible for the economy. Despicable.

I like to limit sharing trump rants but this could have legal implications. A judge in VA asked for DoJ and Todd Blanche to rescind the slush fund in writing, noting Trump’s continued support of it. This has more of that. 1/

That the Trump team blames Biden for the fact that migrants are employed in US jobs instead of blaming employers who actually hire migrants is truly an appalling lie.

"A journalist should never be the story." –– Attributed to Walter Cronkite Modern "journalists" seem to forget that part. This one appears to revel in the attention. Also, I remember when Susie Wiles spilled the beans to Vanity Fair. Had no idea Iran was behind that... ;-) bit.ly/4pONy6J

I have been called an alarmist and worse by well meaning people who want to think it will just all be ok. The truth is it doesn't always end up ok and we can't pretend it will. Donald Trump is targeting Black voters and women to rig this election. We need to stand up, call it out and take action.

Bold choice to remind everyone what a nightmare Covid was as we struggle to find SAFE SALAD GREENS, two bags of groceries are over $100, and RFK Jr decides to meet this moment by launching a cooking show.

I gotta say. I’ve never seen the Europeans move so quickly, so unified and so resolute as when they basically told Gianni Infantino and FIFA to fuck off. Imagine a World Cup without European teams. The art of beating the colonizers is one of football’s great pleasures

There are a lot of important things going on. Maybe this isn’t a top twenty concern. But, this is actually workplace harassment, the kind that can get people killed.

The Koch Nazis are back “A shadowy network of conservative activist groups, backed by Koch-linked dark money, is deploying hidden cameras and mass public-records requests to hunt down and destroy the careers of college professors and administrators — and it's working.”

One day several years ago, I got an anonymous handwritten, threatening letter delivered to my campus mailbox, and then someone (the same person? someone else?) DM'd me on twitter from a burner account, with a photo of my driveway with my car parked in it. This is real and it's dangerous

So weird to see national news media repeatedly bash Democrats for inaction and never mention that the GOP is pro-fa - I.e. pro-fascist.

A simple Google search says Jamie Raskin, Richard Blumenthal, & Gary Peters all took oversight actions last year re treatment of Tate brothers. Then Yassamin Ansari wrote a letter on July 23--again more oversight. None of those efforts made Moira Donegan's July 27 column claiming Dems were "silent."
