Alabama uses Japanese American Internment era law to charge immigrants who don’t self-register Alabama is finding new ways to criminally charge undocumented immigrants

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.

" Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..."

Hundreds of kids in S Carolina are being quarantined right now because of a measles outbreak.

I don’t have patience for niceties when it comes to this crap, so if you’re an anti-vaxxer, keep your damn kids at home and don’t travel for the holidays.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

If Indiana legislators hold firm on their conscience today, it will among other things be a much-needed rejection of the idea that you can get your way on policy through bullying, intimidation, and threats.

NEW: Republicans want us to focus our attention elsewhere so they can continue planning to subvert the 2026 elections. They want voter suppression and election denialism to become routine. For the next 11 months, our job is to prevent this from happening, @marcelias.bsky.social writes.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.

If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

Where has all the leadership gone? If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment? The
"suspending indefinitely" of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation. Maybe the Constitution should have said, "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one's political or financial self-interest." By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

I talked on MSNBC today about the corruption playing out at the FCC. This isn't just about Jimmy Kimmel being silenced. The FCC is planning to change the rules to allow the company that shut down Kimmel to have a monopoly-like stake in local TV ownership.

They’re even turning on their own. Texas Republican Ted Cruz slammed FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, calling his behavior “mafia-like” and warning that Carr’s threats to retaliate against media companies for their programming were “dangerous as hell.”

Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please.

Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.

Rising Food Prices Are Likely to Continue, Thanks to Trump's Trade Wars Rising prices on food and other goods are likely to continue because of Donald Trump's tariffs.

In the past month, vegetable prices have soared nearly 40% due to Trump’s idiotic tariffs.

He promised to lower the cost of living, but has instead nearly doubled the price of produce.

He’s torching the humming economy he inherited from Biden and betraying the middle class he vowed to protect.

The CDC is gutting a program that monitors foodborne illnesses. The program will now only track infections caused by two pathogens, rather than eight.

When I reported for duty at Naval Station Great Lakes, I never imagined that some day a US President would seek to use it as a base for surveillance and enforcement activity on American soil. Our military was not set up to cater to the whims of a would-be American dictator.

2. Meanwhile, President Trump recently defined groceries: "Groceries, they have a term ‘grocery.’ It’s an old term, but it means basically what you’re buying foods. It’s a pretty accurate term, but it’s an old-fashioned sound."
