U.S. policy in the immigration, social welfare, and healthcare arenas is infused with an underlying assumption that some people DESERVE to benefit from these policies and others don't. That is the fundamental flaw that prevents us from having good policy that works well for everyone.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

I personally think that this is the most important point to be made about the current political impasse that resulted in a government shutdown. We need to effectively communicate this fact whenever we talk about why we are where we are.
Personally, I think this practice of rescission alone demands a shutdown unless 1) it is halted completely and 2) the four corners of the budget are secured by ironclad agreement.

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

1/2 I am no expert on the New York City mayoral race, but I felt strongly that Cuomo should not be the Democratic (or any party's) candidate. I am dismayed, however, by the focus on Mamdani's religion. When a Protestant wins, are they continually labeled by their religion?

WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism.
Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.
