This interactive map shows what California coastal areas you should evacuate under a tsunami advisory.

Since April 4, #SCOTUS has issued 15 rulings on 17 emergency applications filed by Trump (three birthright citizenship apps were consolidated).

It has granted relief to Trump ... in all 15 rulings.

It has written majority opinions in only 3.

Today's order is the 7th with no explanation *at all.*

In LA, kids are disrupted at summer camp because of ICE raids.

In MA, school based summer camps may be disrupted because Trump is withholding already committed education funding.

And at a Texas camp, the unthinkable. While the feds argue about who’s at fault.

These are our children, dammit all.

The Fourth of July was an ironic and bittersweet holiday for Japanese Americans incarcerated during WWII. The festivities provided a break from the monotony of life in the camps — but it was also a sharp reminder of the freedoms that had been taken away from them.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

Worth noting that Erez Reuveni has vigorously defended the government’s immigration policies over the last decade, as it was his job to do. This letter’s allegations are shocking (though not surprising, alas) and should be taken with the utmost seriousness.

Miller says he wants to demographically cleanse "huge parts" of Los Angeles until everyone in the city knows each other, and it's not a "society of strangers" anymore. We are talking about dystopian nightmare here. He's the apocalyptic prophet with an army.

Naturalized citizenship can be taken away through a full federal court trial, at which the government has to meet a fairly high bar to prove that the person procured their citizenship through material fraud. It’s a good thing this bar is high: taking away citizenship should be extremely rare.

I'm deeply proud of my work on this brief.

Dozens of Japanese American and other AAPI orgs are urging the courts to remember the lessons of the WWII Japanese American incarceration, and urge them to fulfill their role in our constitutional democracy to check the Trump administration's overreach.

What's important to understand here is that the "criminal illegal immigrant" rhetoric is a poll-tested fig leaf, something that relies on ugly stereotypes to help normalize mass deportations.

The reality is that when ICE comes, they're coming for our friends, neighbors, coworkers, and families.

Another sign that the mask is off: Stephen Miller yells at ICE to do whatever they can to meet their arrest quotas -- no matter who they're arresting -- and mocks them for actually believing Homan's rhetoric about targeting "going after criminals."

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

Almost every detail in this story -- from the U.S. attracting ambitious immigrants to study and work here, to investments in basic research, to naturalization, to international partnerships -- is something that Trump and Musk are trying to destroy.

OMG, I had not been aware of this law review article and am totally bookmarking it!

Re your question: @missionlocal.org has done great reporting on the influence and networks of these tech donors, but I don't think they've done a full post-recall autopsy. Happy to be wrong, though.

Densho is a treasure, and its commitment to preserving our community's history -- in all its ugliness and complexity -- is especially crucial when the federal government is trying to censor stories of racism and injustice from the Smithsonian and other institutions.

Observe that the one that complied and the one that didn't comply are treated exactly the same way.

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear."

L.A. Unified's Supt. said the federal officials who tried to enter 2 schools claimed they were there to check on the well-being of students they said were undocumented, and lied when they told school officials that their families had given permission for the contact.

NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

I’m proud to see the dean of my law school (BC Law) is one of the signatories. And deeply disappointed that the dean of the school across the river is absent.

WOW: @miamiherald.com reveals that a person imprisoned in El Salvador had LEGAL REFUGEE STATUS.

He entered the USA legally in January and was detained because of his tattoos, EVEN THOUGH he had previously passed a full background check.

Without warning, he was sent to El Salvador on March 15.

The Justice Department instructing Judge Boasberg to yield to “the mandate of the electorate” and stop asking questions about defiance of his court order is honestly one of the most demented and disturbing things I’ve ever seen in a legal filing. It comes pretty close to a claim of divine right.
