Screenshot of Times article with headline: "Florida may loosen child labour laws to fill gap left by migrants" The article explains a law has been proposed in Florida to allow children as young as 14 to work overnight shifts in agriculture & constraction to make up for lost migrant labour. Yes really.
You truly could not make it up.
You could not.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Apparently you’ve introduced a bill to stop illegal access to federal data. WHY DO WE NEED SUCH A BILL? It’s already illegal. WE NEED THESE PEOPLE ARRESTED NOW!!
