Kamlager-Dove: We also know that DHS has a habit of taking people to hospitals under false names so they cannot be located. This prevents their family members and lawyers from getting to them. And so we want to know: is this what also happened to Vicente?

A federal court recently ruled ICE’s pattern of warrantless arrest in CO unlawful - a huge win for immigrant families, civil rights, and the rule of law. As Attorney General, I’ll fight to hold every powerful actor accountable when they break the law.

Federal judge orders ICE agents in Colorado to follow law, stop ‘pattern’ of illegal arrests
The 66-page decision came three weeks after four immigrants testified that ICE agents had arrested them without warrants and without first checking to see whether they were likely to flee.

Just fucking pathetic.

Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Good article in Barron's summarizing the trajectory of Tesla's auto business. But the headline is incorrect.
2025 will be the second consecutive year of wholesale decline from the Shanghai factory. 2024 was down 3.3% from 2023.

This is racist and dangerous. Last I checked, Somalians are Black and Rep. Omar is a colleague. Where are the @housedemocrats.bsky.social? The @blackcaucus.bsky.social ?

Hivemind, I have a challenge. Popular culture is dominated by the car (car chases, cop dramas etc), helping us accept a car-dominated urban environment as normal. Can you think of any examples of popular culture highlighting bikes, trams, walking etc? I can only think of A Streetcar Named Desire.

Gupta: Clearly, it looks like he’s not getting enough sleep or he’s just more fatigued. I think The New York Times did extensive reporting that he and his team have panned, but it seems like their reporting on his fatigue and his functionality is bearing out in his public appearances.

New in PN: Trump's ugly Thanksgiving meltdown
"Trump is always vile & erratic, but spewing slurs on Thanksgiving feels like an escalation even for him. It suggests he’s desperate to find his Reichstag Fire — a violent incident he can use to rally his supporters & as an excuse to target his foes."
