Meet Donald Lump, my foramen magnum meningioma. A thread.

Average American Thanksgiving: President declares total ban on immigration, calls an esteemed democratic governor a slur, and then goes on TV to talk about Somalis like animals when asked about a mass shooting by a former child soldier and member of a CIA associated death squad.

Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

Every day Trump gets more vile. I didn’t think it was possible but he is 1000% more putrid and disgusting now than when he was first elected in 2016. I am so embarrassed for our country.

I miss having a president we can be proud of instead of an international embarrassment.

Trump calls Tim Walz “seriously retarded”
migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation…

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.
A Babson College student wanted to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She was deported instead. - The Boston Globe
Any Lucia Lopez Belloza was at Logan to catch a flight to Texas when immigration authorities detained her as she was about to board the plane.

In case anyone sees this as abstract, I have a student who will almost certainly be deported because of this.

The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.

In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.
USCIS Refugee Memo – Summary of Key Provisions Effective immediately, USCIS is ordering: ● A total freeze on all pending Form I-485 applications filed by refugees admitted from Jan 20, 2021 – Feb 20, 2025 ● A mandatory re-interview of all principal refugees admitted during that period ● A review and potential re-interview of derivative refugees, including spouses, children, and follow-to-join beneficiaries ● A reassessment of whether each refugee met the definition at the time of admission Authority being invoked: ● INA § 101(a)(42) (refugee definition) ● INA § 207 and § 209 (termination and adjustment authority) ● USCIS asserts power to undo past refugee admissions Consequences: ● USCIS may terminate refugee status for principals and all derivatives ● USCIS may deny green cards, even for those who already have them ● There is no appeal of a denied refugee-based I-485; the only option is to contest removal in immigration court ● Refugees placed in removal proceedings may renew their I-485 claim before an immigration judge Additional conditions: ● USCIS has 90 days to create the priority list for who will be re-interviewed ● The freeze on I-485s remains until lifted in a future memo ● Only the USCIS Director or Deputy Director may authorize exceptions ● USCIS is explicitly framing this as correcting “expediency,” “quantity over quality,” and “vulnerabilities” in Biden-era adjudications ● The memo states USCIS will revisit all inadmissibility grounds, including those previously waived ● The memo highlights a review of the persecutor bar ● It asserts a need to ensure refugees “pose no threat to national security or public safety”

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

I love that the State’s position is that 12 people voted for someone to die, and come hell or high water someone is going to die regardless of guilt or innocence.

The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.

But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

Average electricity cost increase since Jan:

Missouri ⬆️ 37%
Iowa ⬆️ 30%
North Dakota ⬆️ 30%
Oklahoma ⬆️ 30%
New Jersey ⬆️ 27%
Nebraska ⬆️ 25%
Montana ⬆️ 25%
Wyoming ⬆️ 23%

NATIONWIDE ⬆️ 11%

Instead of working to lower costs, Trump is boosting power-hungry AI data centers.

Whoever at Google thought it was a good idea to make the Gmail mobile app search results default to "most relevant" instead of "most recent":

That was a terrible idea and you should feel bad about yourself for having had it.

Ferreira migrated with her family to the United States from Brazil as a child and is currently in custody at an ICE facility in southern Louisiana. Michael Leavitt released a statement, saying that his "only concern has always been the safety, well-being, and privacy of [his] son."

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.
Dale Partridge on Twitter writes: "Feminist media is BIG mad about me saying that women shouldn’t wear underwear (leggings and sports bras) as outerwear. As Pearl says, “It’s amazing how hard women will fight to be naked.” Immodest ladies, read 1 Tim. 2:9, repent, and follow Christ." Attached are two images. Image 1 headline: “Outraged pastor slams worker at quaint coffee shop for wearing ‘sinful’ leggings and sports bra in front of kids” Image 2 headline: “‘Make sin shameful again’: Pastor sparks row after sports bra complaint”

Three babies in Kentucky have died of whooping cough.

They weren’t vaccinated and neither were their mothers.

This is RFK Jr’s legacy. A trail of dead kids who never had a chance.

They didn’t get to decide about vaccination. Adults chose for them & they paid with their life.
