High school senior Elder Chavez Carranza is an immigrant living in the US legally under a program for abused or neglected children

One day he went to buy food when a cop asked for his papers-which he didn’t have that day. So ICE put him in detention

He has been incarcerated for more than 200 days

Lots of cultures believe(d) that disabled people are sacred or to be honored. Even “western” civilizations had respect. Was reminded that in the 1300s, it was believed that sick/poor people were considered closer to God. The plague changed that perception.

This serves as advertisement for Alex Gibney’s documentary, Musk, opening October 9. Pass it on.
The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

The MAGA outrage du jour that started on Twitter and has now been picked up by the OR GOP is that someone noticed that Tilamook cheese (made in Oregon) has a halal label. They’ve had it for years and they switched to non-animal rennet for economic reasons. But the hate machine must be fed.

HHS wants to relax regulations on human subject research (The Common Rule). For example, they want to redefine “undue influence” on vulnerable human research subjects (children, prisoners, disabled, culturally disadvantaged). 1/

The US President's new proposal to tax international students has been approved by the White House for release this week.

It's an unprecedented $100,000 tax on int'l grads who stay to work after graduation on Optional Practical Training (most grads do), a crucial bridge to remaining by any channel.

Today we thought we'd talk about this gentleman who some of you may recognise.

Joseph Rowntree was a Quaker, confectioner, philanthropist and Merchant Adventurer.

Plus as you can see in this photo quite the natty dresser.

I think part of the pundit crack-up has been that they missed the big call of their lifetimes about which was the bigger threat to America: wokeness or authoritarianism. And rather than admitting that, they are doubling down on wokeness, while ignoring an authoritarianism that does not threaten them
Normally I just appreciatively read @jamellebouie.net 's columns-sharable video content just isn't my bag. But this is a very, very, very trenchant piece of commentary that captures a lot of how I increasingly understand the disjunction between the commentary environment and on-the-ground politics.
The pundits have completely lost the plot

The COVID Lab leak theory debunked by Paul Offit

1. Started in the Hunan wholesale seafood market (Southwestern section). The first few cases were there and spread out.

2. The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) is 9 miles away from that seafood market, on the other side of the Yangtze river. 🧵

In Bari Weiss' Free Press, Olivia Reingold reported from El-Sayed's watch party that "there were keffiyehs as far as the eye could see ... keffiyehs on heads, keffiyehs as belts, keffiyeh-printed phone cases."

Not a single one made it into images from Reuters, a local ABC station, or Detroit News.

They will do this to libraries, too. Campgrounds, parks, etc. They share tactics between each other, too, whether it’s forcing “first amendment” protection in the states or flat out disguising their intentions.

I remember when Bill Clinton met with the Attorney General for three minutes when Hillary was being investigated for mishandling classified information, and the republicans cried bloody murder. Now, the AG nominee is covering for pedophiles and that seems okay. WHAT THE FUCK?
