The Virginia Senate just told UVA it’s not getting state funding if it accepts the compact since UVA exists to serve Virginia, its residents, & their interests—not be a tool of the federal govt.

NEW: The private jet that flew 10 shackled migrants to an Eswatini prison last weekend is owned by Israeli-American billionaires with close ties to Trump.

Laredo is currently the largest port in terms of both value and tonnage in the US (and that includes all seaports even Los Angeles-Long Beach) so it’s a big question mark but fully dependent on relations with Mexico of course

going by the decor, is this not TGI Fridays?

Someone on Twitter posted a photo of themselves doing a happy dance as they receive a hot plate of fajitas. Then "Raw Egg Nationalist" on Twitter retweets them, writing: It's incredible that these people exist, but they really do. These are the people who justify the demographic replacement of Western countries in terms of the variety of street food and how many different kinds of fried-meat-and-vegetables in flatbread they can buy.

If our TV networks had not been captured by the right wing, some very easy journalism would be to play this clip besides a very not on fire Portland and then tell viewers that the President of the United States is living in an alternate reality.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

TBF, Machado loves Trump and supports his drone killings of fellow Venezuelans without evidence or trial.

Juan Forero @WSJForero

Machado's been supportive of the U.S.,
even though some say the strikes on dope boats amount to extrajudicial executions.
Critics also lament that she hasn't spoken out more on behalf of Venezuelan migrants who are demonized in the U.S. and deported in large numbers. 5

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.
