When he was 15, my grandpa came to America in search of a better life. He became a citizen at 50—it was the proudest day of his life. Would he even be welcome today under Stephen Miller’s policies of anti-immigrant hate and fear? Let’s not forget what made America great in the first place.

Boasberg: "Absent this relief, the Government could snatch anyone off the street, turn him over to a foreign country, and then effectively foreclose any corrective course of action." An unassailable point. The fact that the U.S. government is fighting this tells you what you need to know.

Trump has signed an order doubling tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from 25% to 50%. The move hikes import taxes on the metals, which are used in everything from cars to canned food, for the second time since March. This will drive up prices for American consumers on a wide range of products.
