There appear to be a substantial number of people who believe that a flat earth is nevertheless rotating around the sun.

Must be decennial; rolling 5-year ACS can be used for anything but apportionment, which requires โ€œactual enumerationโ€ (no data analytics or newest tools)

I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024. People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

BREAKING: With #2030Census prep already underway, President Trump says he's instructed Commerce Dept to "immediately begin work" on a "new" census that excludes people living in the states without legal status from a count the 14th Amendment says must include โ€œwhole number of persons in each stateโ€

State Cops Quietly Tag Thousands as Gang Members โ€” and Feed Their Names to ICE Gang databases are often racially biased and riddled with errors. States and cities send their flawed information to ICE.

Police gang databases are speculative, barely regulated, and notoriously faulty โ€” a perfect tool for officials seeking to imply criminality without due process.

Many โ€” hundreds of thousands of entries โ€” are shared directly with ICE.

American police procedurals have indeed encouraged people to embrace torture. The pilot for Blue Bloods, in 2010, celebrated an officer waterboarding a suspect in a toilet bowl.

Where did they find a plane still labeled as Eastern Air Lines, a carrier that went bankrupt in 1991.

I share this view. If the BOP tried to kill Epstein, heโ€™d be alive today (and possibly have been let out of prison by mistake).

Remember that the moment it was discovered that Abrego was not removable the government could have asked for him back and said โ€œlook, we arenโ€™t monsters.โ€ They want to be monsters. And they want people to know.

City Council leaders criticize ruling clearing NYPD officer in shooting Two City Council leaders called on NYPD Commissioner Tisch to 'reject the corrupt status quo practices of the past.'

โ€œThis egregious decision betrays the public trust & accountability that is necessary to advance public safety" say @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social & Dep. Speaker Ayala.

PC Tisch's cowardly decision is outrageous & dangerous. She must #FireJonathanRivera for #AllanFeliz!

BREAKING: nearly 5mos after NYPD Deputy Commissioner found Lt. Rivera guilty for killing #AllanFeliz & recommended he be fired, Commissioner Tisch shamefully reverses course. Today she announced her preliminary decision to dismiss charges against Rivera -- without regard to city procedure.

Always loved the people who are like, "But my ancestors came here the legal way!" and by that they mean they arrived via ratship to an island, a man asked them their name, they were like, "Uh, Jeff... Smith?" another guy said "sure?" and then they became permanent residents of the United States.

Arpaio's racial profiling cost $352 million. Don't just blame a court for that | opinion Maricopa County officials are right to question court oversight costs, but without a judge watching, who will hold the sheriff's office accountable?

Itโ€™s no surprise that when officers are told they can arrest anyone they โ€œbelieveโ€ to be โ€œillegal,โ€ they racially profile Latinos. Thatโ€™s what Sheriff Joe Arpaio did in Maricopa County, which a decade and $352 million later is still under monitorship.

โ€˜We speak English here': Nassau County Police sued for language access The lawsuit claims Nassau County's police department has a written policy requiring officers to help non-native English speakers, but that many do not follow it in practice.

And this isnโ€™t the first time we have sued Nassau County PD โ€“ we have ongoing litigation with them on behalf of CARECEN alleging that they fail to provide language access to Latinos on Long Island.

Suffolk County Police to settle lawsuit to be more transparent, accessible to Spanish speakers Suffolk County Police on Long Island would pay $3.75 million, improve training and background checks, and publish data about who they pull over in traffic stops as part of a tentative court settlement...

We continue to monitor the Suffolk County Police Department for compliance with the agreement that settled our long-running racial profiling litigation against SCPD.

Judge rules Suffolk County violatedย immigrants' rights; could pay up to $60M in damages County officials vowed to appeal the decision, saying they had been acting under federal guidance.

We at @latinojustice.bsky.social have done years of work protecting the rights of Latinos on Long Island. We sued Suffolk County over its unlawful cooperation with DHS under the last Trump administrationโ€”a court has ruled in our favor and a trial on damages is set for fall.
