David Glosser, Stephen Miller’s uncle, told CNN his nephew is an “immigration hypocrite”: “Had we not been able to enter America when we did, Stephen Miller would never exist” (2018)

This has been a problem from the beginning. Dismantle ICE… Native Americans are U.S. citizens. Reports of ICE questioning and detaining Native Americans, including challenges to tribal IDs, should concern every American. Don’t tell me this is only about immigration status anymore.

We very much enjoyed @gardencourtlaw.bsky.social infographic explaining the rather convoluted efforts that the state has gone to to supress juries and persecute Rajiv Menon KC.

Ah, I had thought that the Tories were jumping on poor journalism from the Times re immigration - in fact the party was the *original source* of the false claims, which the paper neglected to check or clearly attribute. Incompetent, unprofessional, dubious, and xenophobic behaviour all round.

I mean if we had 'open borders', no one would bother with small boats to enter the country. (plus there would be no immigration detention)

Parody Nigel Farage@parodypm.bsky.social · 2w ago

The one thing I can't posdibly do is mention that small boat crossings are down by 44% this year, because scare mongering about this is the central pillar of my whole grift.

It's embarrassing how politicians lose it over rescues that don't match their absurd idea of emergencies but when 150+ people die because no one is there to rescue them for 25 days, they couldn't care less. Only 38 people survived. https://tinyurl.com/yvwa93u6
