Today’s immigration panel at the NBA Centennial Convention honors 100 years of legal empowerment and civil rights advocacy. More than a conference, it’s a launchpad for future leaders and a bold call to shape the next century of justice and impact. #NBA100 #ImmigrationLaw

@urbanviewradio.bsky.social ICE agents get $50K bonuses to "defend the homeland", but there’s never money for teachers, nurses, or mental health care. Funny how the budget’s wide open when the goal is fear.

@urbanviewradio.bsky.social In July, the U.S. embassy in Pretoria asked if non-white South Africans could apply for Trump’s refugee program. US's response? β€œIt’s for white people.” Not even pretending Refuge for the β€œright” color only. #Immigration @karenhunter.bsky.social @claycane.bsky.social

President Trump takes aim at college sports with a new executive order The order aims to ban "pay-for-play" NIL deals, mandates scholarships for women's and Olympic sports and threatens to withhold funds from schools who don't comply. But its legality is in question.

3. Denaturalization has historically been rare, typically used against Nazi collaborators and during fraud crackdowns like β€œOperation Janus.” While some presidents have sought to expand its use, courts remain the final authority on stripping citizenship.#RuleOfLaw #ConstitutionalRights

2. Denaturalization applies only to naturalized citizens. Not those born in the U.S. Even then, it requires proof of fraud or serious misrepresentation and must be pursued by DOJ in federal court. The Supreme Court has sharply limited this power. #Citizenship #SCOTUS

#Revoking #USCitizenship by the numbers 1. The President cannot unilaterally revoke citizenship. Under the Constitution, only Congress sets the rules for naturalization and revocation must go through the courts. No executive order can strip citizenship without #dueprocess.
