Medical Groups Call for Physician Exemptions to Trump's Executive Order AMA says H-1B visa order could jeopardize patient access to care in underserved areas

Rural patients lose again: Trump’s H-1B fee hike makes it harder to attract foreign doctors, who fill critical gaps in areas struggling to staff hospitals and clinics.

New statement from National Lawyers Guild of Chicago: 18 total arrests at the protest yesterday at the Broadview, IL ICE facility; 13 by feds and 5 by state or local police.

Four more arrests observed today in Chicago's Brighton Park neighborhood. Likely being brought to Broadview, per statement.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

if Kash can go back years and fire people for kneeling or displaying a pride flag the absolute least the next Dem admin can do is fire every one of these assholes who are assaulting people on camera

(and then prosecute them)

The troops are coming to Chicago, fam. Remember, we have resources for this moment. Connect to ongoing efforts. Chicagoans love Chicago, and we will support each other.

If you like yelling about misuse of the passive voice, THIS IS IT.

love to see it!

I only now just came across the Kegsbreath moniker. That is all.

Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post, and the Cost of Speaking Out As Saudi Arabia hosts comedians and courts gamers, the silenced voice of Jamal Khashoggi still echoes.

Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory.

They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth.

But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi.

RIP, Jamal.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Narrator Voice: Stephen Miller is the least hardcore person to ever walk the earth. His hands are as soft as a newborn baby. He can’t use a hammer. He sucks his thumb in terror when he sees non-white people on TV.

YouTube video by Global Sumud Flotilla 24/7 LIVESTREAM OF GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA

Close to 65k watching the livefeed from the Global Sumud Flotilla off the coast of Gaza.

Israel seems to be intercepting right now.

All eyes needed.

Today is also the first day in my life that PBS and NPR will not receive federal funding. Let's donate while fighting to restore support for public media.

in October 1973 the BBC went to Hornsea where the council allowed nude bathing

(i’ve been laughing at this for longer than i care to admit)

I feel naive just writing this, but a president threatening to withhold funding to a city unless it elects his preferred candidate for mayor seems like the sort of thing that shouldn't be legal.

Am I reading this correctly?

A grad student ... in Computer Science ... enrolled in an undergraduate seminar ... in the American Indian and Indigenous Studies program ... where he ignored the readings and hijacked discussions to talk about Israel and defend its actions in Gaza?

What the hell?

Court-watchers confirm this cruel ICE agent has been reinstated.

Last week, in the briefest moment of decency, violently throwing a woman to the floor was “beneath the men and women of ICE.”

This week, it’s back to business as usual. The cruelty, after all, is the point.

Opinion | A.I.’s Environmental Impact Will Threaten Its Own Supply Chain

Gifting this article mostly for the video that clearly outlines the environmental devastation of AI and the urgent need to boycott and speak out.

Recurring gripe of mine but it is incredible how National Conservatism is supposedly built around decrying lack of community, common project etc, while turning every “hate your neighbors” dial they can access up to 11. Make your professor terrified to say anything, don’t trust your doctor, etc

Armed Guards and Muscle Milk: Senate Investigation Reveals DOGE Takeover Details A new Senate report claims DOGE put every American's Social Security number at risk—and that officials at federal agencies essentially obstructed an investigation, all but denying DOGE even exists.

A new senate report is full of *shocking* details about DOGE activities inside the federal government. Including, unfortunately, the disturbing access that DOGE affiliates had to our SSNs:

"One whistleblower noted the possibility that the agency may need to re-issue SSNs to all who possess one."

My niece sent me these disclaimers from her thread on Threads. AI bots are tagging posts with this message: "This user is suspected of being part of a terrorist organization called Antifa. Please report any suspicious." Anyone else seeing this?

Spirit Halloween costume meme with text "Genocidal grifter" and NYC Mayor Eric Adams in over the top embrodered robe with the star of David for a Rosh Hashanah event.

#EricAdams

Someone please do one of those Halloween costume memes for "Genocidal Grifter" with Eric Adam's Rosh Hashanah gown.

Eric Adams surrounded by members of the Sephardic Lebanese Congregation. He is wearing a blue velvet jacket that is embroidered with gold Magen David’s and other Jewish seeming patterns, including multiple menorahs. Everyone else is just in button down shirts or normal suits. He is not blending in.

You guys do yourself a favor and look at what Eric Adams wore to Rosh Hashanah services at the Sephardic Lebanese Congregation
