Kristi Noem is flat-out lying when she claims no U.S. citizen has been arrested in her violent crackdown. Do a web search on โ€œimmigration citizen arrestedโ€ and youโ€™ll see. Hereโ€™s one of the many documented reports we found.

Itโ€™s not his house. Itโ€™s your house. And heโ€™s destroying it.
Can't tell if this dread and anxiety are from politics, the exhaustion of US parenting, middle-of-the-semester scaries, missing promised writing deadlines, or from trying to keep my sanity through this all ๐Ÿซ 
My non-white friends' conversations this weekend. Talking about how terrifying it is to be seen as a "fuuhreignnerrr" in 2025.
This is why the inflatable costumes works so well -- it works the same way calling them "weird" or "creepy" did. It disrupts their narrative, and makes them seem pathetic rather than cool-and-cruel.
You need to see this:

his summer, I went to Panama and met Jharana, a 33-year-old from Nepal who had been deported there in a group of 300 others โ€” the 1st group to be sent to a third country. I wrote about what happened to her and others over the year for

What Happened to The Migrants The U.S. Dumped In Panama?
Nearly 300 people were sent to a country theyโ€™d never lived in. The journey didnโ€™t end there.

Pope Leo XIV has blasted how wealthy people live in a โ€œbubble of comfort and luxuryโ€ while the poor suffer. In his first teaching document Thursday, Leo confirms that he is in perfect lockstep with Pope Francis on matters of social injustice.

Kicking off our @migrationpolicy.bsky.social conference State of Play panel, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, President of the American Action Forum, emphasizes that "In the absence of immigration, the US would look a lot like Japanโ€

He also notes that our success will be dictated by our immigration policies
Randomly remembering how a grad school classmate would loudly eat their meal in class *and* put their feet up on their seat in class (while everyone was sitting in a circle). Another classmate had one earphone in their ear during class and watching a TV show on their laptop.
Grading my students' video posts. One of my students had a tuxedo cat just hanging out on his shoulder like a parrot. I jokingly told him that he'd get extra points because of the cat. At the end of the video, the student made a point and the cat gave him a dubious look ๐Ÿ˜‚
Went to the doctor yesterday and the physician used AI to record and transcribe my visit. AI definitely lessens the burnout of healthcare workers...but AI corporations having access to my audio AND medical information literally makes my skin crawl.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesnโ€™t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants
Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

The man arrested for Charlie Kirkโ€™s murder is a White 22 year old named Tyler Robinson. This is how prominent MAGA pundit Dinesh Dโ€™Souza is reacting - blaming professors.

New Mexico's economy is a fraction of the size of New York City's.

If they can enact universal childcare โ€” and relieve working families of a crushing cost burden โ€” surely we can too.

It's just a question of political will.
New Mexico will be the first state to make child care free
The program, which is expected to save families $12,000 per child annually, is available to all residents regardless of income.

This is class solidarity.

In case youโ€™re at all confused.
Getting so many freaking emails about external links on Blackboard not working on a left click. Found out the right clicks (and opening a new tab/window) work. UGHH. I despise classroom tech "upgrades" because they often have these random bugs ๐Ÿ˜ก
