Kristi Noem Didn’t Give a Sh*t About β€˜the Details’ Such as a woman who was here legally and helped the homelessβ€”but was then deported anyway.

NEW: Here's the story of a woman deported by Kristi Noem. Legally in the United States (as a DACA recipient), she is the mother of a U.S. citizen and was working to help the homelessβ€”but when she went for an appointment to get a green card, she was deported.

A judge ordered the release of a man with lawful permanent resident status β€” who twice won bond before an immigration court β€” but has remained detained for 200 days because of the Trump administration's use of a (previously) little used "automatic stay." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I would like to be present when government lawyers tell a 78-year-old judge β€œwe can’t follow your order because the computer won’t let us.” That’s always fun.

Telling courts that refunds would be "automatic" and "assured" was the government's way of avoiding emergency relief.

Here’s a hypothetical.

Two countries (A and B) attack another country (C).

In country A, public support for their attack is over 90%.

In country B, public support is less than 32%.

Whose war is it?

I've yet to see Jill Stein protesting the Trump Administration over the 175 Iranian girls who were killed in one missile attack, let alone the hundreds of other children in the dozen or so more attacks on schools.

Weird, huh?

The rapid expansion of American-owned data centres in the Middle East has opened up a new front for Iran’s retaliation against the US, complicating Gulf ambitions to build multibillion-dollar AI facilities in the region.

Drone strikes on Amazon Web Services facilities this week in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain highlight the vulnerability of cloud facilities β€” prominent symbols of US tech power in the region and hard to defend against air attack.

Fars News Agency, an outlet affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said on Thursday that Iran targeted Amazon and Microsoft facilities in recent drone strikes.

Experts say Amazon’s facilities were likely targeted by Iran. Microsoft said it had not experienced any outages in the region.

β€˜They all want to kill each other’: conservative media in open warfare over Iran Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin are all trading blows over US involvement – while Sean Hannity says he’s staying out of it The stars of the conservative media movement have been duking it out – in extremely personal terms – over Donald Trump’s decision to enter the United States into a conflict with Iran. While it can be hard to cleanly group the warring factions, much of the fighting has centered on disagreements about whether the US is too deferential to Israeli interests. Those arguing that position most prominently include former Fox News hosts Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, while conservative media personalities like Mark Levin (a current Fox News host) and Ben Shapiro have strongly supported both the American intervention in Iran and collaboration with Israel.
