Impunity 101
The good news: Canada ruled against a Guatemalan ex-military officer, calling his actions in the horrific 1982 #DosErres massacre “crimes against humanity.”
The bad news: Canada refused to use its own War Crimes Act, so the ruling strips his citizenship and kicks him out of Canada.
Absolutely. TSA has extra "secondary screening" for those who lose their ID, or don't have Real ID or a passport. They'll take your photo and search your carry on. They did that for migrants traveling with their immigration documents pre-2025, despite the BS that migrants were traveling w/out ID.
Is this one for sale?
My Dad taught me to drive in an empty supermarket parking lot. He wasn’t a patient man in general, but he was for those lessons. I think it’s my best memory with him.
And the flight attendants who refused to work child separation flights.
What about the five-year-olds? They are likely best friends.
THIS. Every time bozos in the interior voted to give more weapons to the largest LE agency in the country terrorize people at the border and hold them in incommunicado detention in exchange for less enforcement in the interior, we only made today’s nightmare more possible.

Impossible not to compare this with what US soldiers did in Iraq.

They can also act across the border, for example, in the city where I live.
NACLA Report on the Americas
He would still be trying to say Roosevelt Corollary so they skipped that bit.
Latin American Studies centers are being closed down around the United States, including at land grant universities with public outreach mandates, because why would the US public need to know anything about this region? 🤦♀️

On the border, the military occupation is horribly destructive. But the individual soldiers are mostly young people too scared to climb down from their tanks because they think the ground squirrel holes are for rattlesnakes.
Have compassion for the National Guard men and women. Most probably do not want to be there. It's up to us as citizens to ensure they're not misused and abused this way.
Sasse's party in the past year has kneecapped research on the cancer that is killing him

Time should make Kilmar Abrego García Person of the Year.
Yes. This is what we saw on the border when we received people temporarily. An earlier group of Venezuelans, more middle class, had sponsors, but by 2022 many did not.
Meeting, getting to know, and working work with Diversity Visa selectee clients has been one of the highlights of my career.
Unsurprisingly, Trump/Miller hate this law and tried to shut it down in Trump 1.0 with COVID as their excuse. Now they’ve found their pretext for Trump 2.0. Sickening.
