Jamelle Bouie, in podcast conversation, tells it like it is: “…they are sending ICE agents to Springfield, Ohio, to round up Haitians. Haitians who are legal immigrants. They remove their temporary protected status and they’re sending ICE agents to round them up. That is ethnic cleansing. That’s all that is.” #Giftlink https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/31/opinion/ice-minnesota-trump.html?unlocked_article_code=1.I1A.e4I-.0E19me8K5nD5&smid=nytcore-ios-share

Glad to see the Santa Clara County DA is committed to investigating the fatal use of force by ICE if it happens here. He was the first Democrat to openly quit Twitter when Musk took over there.

In the eyes of Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen, the reaction inside the White House to Renee Good’s death earlier this month — and the president’s quick exoneration of the immigration agent who shot her — served as a troubling harbinger for the Bay Area.

“If that’s what they’re doing in Minneapolis, they’re going to do the same thing here,” Rosen said. “What I can say definitively is that my office will independently investigate any fatal use of force by law enforcement. … That is the right thing to do.”

Rot in Private Equity — The right words

“Buyout firms have struggled to sell companies they own and have instead found a workaround to get cash back to clients: Selling the companies to themselves…

Some firms are pushing out the sales timeline even further. This year, private equity firms including Accel-KKR have started selling their companies from one continuation vehicle to another.

The industry calls these new funds “CV-squared.”
