A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

this is a pattern, not only across the history of Trump Administrations, but across US immigration policing. Terror followed by outrage followed by a steady hum of violence that appears normal by comparison to what preceded it. I don‘t think it “climaxed” but it‘s important to stay focused.

Reread this chapt by Lucy Salyer in the Immigration Stories ed volume. She makes clear the SG Conrad arguing against Chinese birthright citizenship was an unreoconstructed southerner + all arguments about "subject to the jurisdiction" being recycled today appeared post-ratification of the 14th Am.
3. "Wong Kim Ark: The Contest Over Birthright Citizenship" book chapter by Lucy E. Salyer. 

In August 1895, Wong Kim Ark sailed into San Francisco harbor
aboard the steamship Coptic, returning to the city of his birth after a
visit to China. His journey did not end there, however, as Wong Kim
Ark’s right to enter and remain in the United States, the country of his
birth, became embroiled in a fierce legal battle that was not resolved
until the U.S. Supreme Court finally decided in his favor in 1898.! The
legal question was deceptively simple: Under the Fourteenth Amendment,
are all persons born in the United States American citizens? As
one legal commentator at the time noted, the ‘“‘commonly accepted
notion” was that birth conferred citizenship.? The uncommon length of
the attorneys’ briefs and the Court’s divided opinion suggest, however,
that the issue was not so straightforward, especially in an era of growing

Not that I‘m in the least bit surprised, but Control: Resonant is a colossally ambitious and entertaining game. I expect it’ll get crowded out by the likes of GTA VI come awards season, but even in the early stages it‘s a banger.

States can and have banned 287 agreements within their borders. There’s a template for this, and any state that hasn’t done so is choosing not to do so.

Gone are the mass raids and militarized metro operations. Gone are the pomp and pageantry. But ICE arrests have hit record levels. ICE operations are no longer concentrated in large American cities. Immigration enforcement officials are also working in suburban and rural areas, all across the US.
