This plane landed in Myanmar about three hours ago. This is the third ICE flight to Myanmar this year. Burmese deportees in 2025 were immediately sent to a torture facility next to the airport, according to Myanmar Now. Weeks later, not all of them had emerged.

This likely ICE flight operated by Journey Aviation has taken off and appears to heading for an Asia removal. In May, this aircraft deported people to Myanmar.

A paramilitary group plotted to overthrow the Constitution then conducted a violent attack on America. They were convicted in court of seditious conspiracy, and jailed. Then the leader they aimed to illegally install got power and let them out, their records wiped clean. The Jan. 6 attackers won.

Judge Pained as He Grants Dismissal of Jan. 6 Charges Against Oath Keepers

The judge, Amit P. Mehta, blasted the administration’s request for a dismissal in the case, saying it bestowed “unearned grace” on the Oath Keepers defendants “by wiping their records clean.”

In addition to having no experience in immigration, their website shows Ilya Shapiro (!) and disgraced former law prof Joshua Wright (!) as Senior Counsel. I don't think this massive contract was awarded to give immigrant children effective, zealous advocacy. burkegroup.law/our-team/

Biked 1 mile to coffee. Then biked another mile to the pharmacy. Then biked 1 mile home. 95% on protected (separated) bike infra. More Americans deserve the freedom of a life like this (if they want it).

Laura rides a bike on a protected bikelane. She has coffee on her handlebar mount and a front milk crate vasket. There are 2 other people on bikes in the background.

"Why can Mamdani Just Fuckin Lie about unpopular beliefs while so many of his peers cannot?" Mamdani's leftism is more ruthlessly (laudatory) pragmatic and power-focused than theirs. He cares less about "winning the debate of ideas" and more about achieving power to enact his will

Can’t say this works for me. There was no legally salient “finding.” There is a classified executive branch opinion which says that the executive branch is acting legally. I’ll leave you to draw the obvious conclusion.

The US military’s strikes on alleged drug boats have likely illegally killed “individuals who are not involved in narcotrafficking,” Sen. Tim Kaine told the White House, following “a careful review” of classified information he has seen so far.

A fond goodbye to my Avondale apartment, which breaks every part of its RS-3 zoning and could never be built today ❌ 12 units (2 unit max) ❌ 40 ft tall (30 ft max) ❌ 260 sq ft lot area/unit (2,500 min) ❌ 0 ft rear setback (35 ft min) And way above the 0.9 floor-area ratio cap

The immigrants aboard Flight 164 were pursuing lives in America when ICE detained them. Once back in Venezuela, they were taken into state custody and held in a building that collapsed hours later.

Deported by Trump, detained in Venezuela — then lost in the earthquakes

Their lives in America were disrupted by President Donald Trump’s crackdown. Deported to Venezuela, they were taken into custody and disappeared beneath the rubble of two massive earthquakes.

@marjolainekoch.bsky.social Ne Koch is an excellent French journalist, and she has chosen to interview a close friend and, above all, one of the pioneers and leading figures in 21st-century urban planning, Brent Toderian. Do read it and enjoy it!

ICYMI: “A North American city planner contracted by European cities—that’s curious.” My interview with France-based Lettre du Cadre and writer @marjolainekoch.bsky.social covering a lot of ground on how to actually achieve better European & North American city-building. Article in the screen shots.

The screenshots show the four pages of the article which is in French… Apologies, more than I can handle in alt text, especially in French. If there’s tech that can automatically read & copy it into alt text, I’d appreciate knowing about it.

My heart hurts too much to even say something ironic about this. What if we just fucking start fighting for every single precious human life before they’re under attack. What if we treat now like it matters as much as it does.

The State Department says it takes "full responsibility" for hastily altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference this week that mislabeled every single country it highlighted. A Reuters analysis found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.

Worth observing for the laypeople out there that in addition to being the former Yale law dean, the author (Robert Post) is also one of the most important First Amendment scholars *and* academic freedom scholars, like, ever. He knows whereof he speaks more than basically anyone

Jeremy Stahl@jeremystahl.bsky.social · 6d ago

The Trump administration sued Yale for its admissions policies (alleging too much diversity). Yale is negotiating with DOJ, whereas Harvard fought Trump. The former dean of Yale Law School thinks he knows the real reason why. slate.com/news-and-pol...
