"Former President Joe Biden stopped holding families [in the detention camp at Dilley, Texas] in 2021, arguing America shouldn’t be in the business of detaining children.

But quickly after returning to office, President Donald Trump resumed family detentions as part of his mass deportation campaign."

You might have already seen this clip of Ian McKellen on the Colbert show. But if you didn't see the set up before the monologue, it's absolutely worth watching. It begins at the 20 minute mark.

"To be fair, it might be appropriate to put his name on a prison."

~ Steven Beschloss, noting that Trump's name should be removed, if his regime is finally toppled, from all the buildings and monuments to which he's affixed it

The Prime Minister of #Spain 's clear explanation of why thriving societies should accommodate #immigrants.

+
'Challenges are not driven by migrants’ ethnicity, race, or language. but by the same forces that affect our own citizens: poverty, inequality, unregulated markets, barriers to education and health care.

We should focus our efforts on addressing those issues, because they are the real threats to our way of life'

"(see: snoozing through the Melania premiere while the country grappled with Alex Pretti’s devastating, baseless murder).

Let’s say it: Trump is a racist. The Republican Party tolerates — if it does not actively endorse — his racism. Those who normalize him enable racism. His agenda is grounded in racism."

"Trump might be president, but the time for mincing words and normalizing his ethnic cleansing campaign (disguised as 'immigration policy') has long passed. All decent citizens should ostracize him when he prioritizes frivolous social functions at Mar-A-Lago rather than attending to the needs of the nation" (continued in /3)

"ICE’s latest recruitment ads — built around music and language drawn straight from far-right neo-Nazi memes and aimed at extremists who are most fervent about guns, tactical gear, and vigilantism — are being distributed by and are profiting two companies you probably use all the time: YouTube and Google."

Think again. I grew up in the household of a lawyer who ran for a judge's seat twice. I learned bitter lessons early in life about how absolutely not blind justice is in the US when money is waved under Lady Justice's blindfold.

Follow the money … right to the judge's seat and the courtroom.

As you think about judges (in this case, in the right-wing Fifth Circuit) getting on board with this program of ethnic cleansing and mass detention (see /1-4 above), think about all the money flowing around behind the scenes to purchase and fit out those warehouses as huge prisons. Think judges aren't swayed by money?
