Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

Naked children torn from their mothers and tossed into vans.

U.S. citizens detained for hours in zip ties.

Doors kicked in and belongings stolen or destroyed.

This is the reality of Trump’s deportation agenda.

It was always about cruelty.

Where is Kamala Harris? Where is Barack Obama?

UC Berkeley Hands Over 160 Names to the Federal Government for ‘Potential Connection’ to Antisemitism The university said it was complying with its legal obligations concerning a U.S. Department of Education civil-rights investigation.

Veena Dubal, AAUP General Counsel noted that "many of the people whose information was released were never informed that they were named in complaints & have no idea what information was released to the federal government. The release of this information has had a chilling effect on campus."

UC Berkeley shares 160 names with Trump administration in ‘McCarthy era’ move Prominent professor Judith Butler among students and faculty investigated for ‘alleged antisemitic incidents’

The release of personally identifiable information that was not relevant to the government’s Title VI investigation was improper. The Trump admin is investigating how the UC responded to claims of antisemitism, not the individuals named in the complaints. The AAUP condemns this move by UC Berkeley.

Rubio Is Pressing to Open Sanctions Investigation Into Harvard (Gift Article) Experts and former officials said it was unusual for a cabinet secretary to try to influence the Treasury Department’s sanctions process to target a domestic entity.

Attendees of this conference included members of a Chinese company accused of human rights abuses of Uyghurs, an issue I promise you the Islamophobic Trump admin could not give a whit about. It’s “omg we love Nazis but hate campus antisemitism” all over again. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/u...

The audience for Trump’s tariff announcement

It is absolutely right that we do not need Greenland (or Canada) for natsec reasons because they are already close NATO allies. So the only rationale to turn the US into an aggressor in our own hemisphere is if you don’t plan on NATO being a US alliance in the future.
